For companies with a calendar year close it's almost time to close 2022...
At Layers, we are working to save time and manual resources for LN node operators to help provide audit reporting and corroborate their node data as they close their books.
First two audit reports for your node are free here: https://www.layers.cloud/
Social media influencers…. especially financial or crypto ones obvs. They prey on both greed and desperation of their victims in equal measure..
I get the sentiment, however, sometimes bringing a link to my attention is enough for me to throw sats around (because I'm not a degen who's on all these websites where'd I'd be able to find them on my own). Usually, websites have google analytics integrated in them, and the site owner can see where their web traffic is coming from. If a link is shared on SN, the site sees that people visited their site from a link shared on SN
Given that SN is a site where people have Bitcoin, the site owner might decide to then add a "tip the author with sats" option on their own website.
That all being said, I'll probably stop tipping for links to legacy media websites.
The most powerful entity in the known universe.

Routing for free can be sustainable and might just be how the network evolves over time. Instead of the customer paying for being able to pay, the seller is paying for being able to receive a payment. This is especially easy to sell, since sellers are already used to being charged for payments and it will increase adoption a lot if paying on lightning was free.
the option to not validate is not a feature because the alternative to validating is to outsource the cost by pointing hash power towards pools or entities who can afford to do so.
this outsourceable cost is unlike any cost miners have to deal with and incentivize consolidation of smaller hashing power and block creation capabilities to an oligopoly.
I've been thinking too about how multi-party channels should have a miner fee fund that some of the routing fees go to.
So k00b, I haven't posted in a while because I am extremely busy with studying to advance my career and other money related moves to put myself in a financially strategic position.
When at least the majority of that dust has settled I am trying to read through the various non-soft fork related multi-party channels and I want to write an article that gives the TLDR on the trade-offs of each of them compared to the proposals that do require a softfork. Then if I see more excitement for one of them over the others, maybe I'll attempt to write an implementation spec for it (and then invite the real engineers to shred everything I've written lol)
Just an update about where my head is at and things.
ᕦ(ò_óˇ)Day 11 of exercising everyday before the saloon opensWent to sleep around 2AM and woke up at 9AM. I went with my phone on low battery into bed. I know it's not a good habit and I didn't do it for the last 5 days or something but I really wanted to watch something for a few minutes before sleeping for some reason. And it was indeed just a few minutes (like a compromise I did with myself). Also, my phone was dying anyway. I thought I would get up and plug it in before I start to sleep but I didn't.
Fortunately, my circadian rhythms seems to already be strong enough such that I wake up at 9AM without an alarm anyway.
I then went for a run but I noticed within 5 minutes that my legs are exploding, lol. Felt soreness at spots I don't feel sore usually (at the shinbone for example). Took this as a sign I should take it easy today before I hurt myself or it's even worse tomorrow. So I just went for a short walk in the forest. Guess all this walking in the past days is still showing.
Also took this as a sign that the habit of exercising early in the morning is forming itself: My mind wants to exercise but my body does not.
I think one of the biggest mistakes is to not listen to what your body is trying to tell you. It tells you when it wants to exercise and when it doesn't. Imo, that's also why we feel bad when we don't exercise since we can feel our body longing for some exercise but our mind is not listening. Now I am at the spot where my mind wants to exercise more than my body. Not listening to my body again would destroy the habit in the long run again.
I should maybe start to look for other areas in my life that I can improve. I used to do intermittent fasting in the past and it worked really well. I want to do this again. Maybe I'll start in the next days.
See you around, cowboys!
Another thought: The daily reward only rewards the last 36 hours.
That means it doesn't distinguish between users being inactive for a weekend or for weeks. If you look at other social media such as Youtube the algorithm punishes harder the longer people were inactive.
Not saying that's a good or bad thing. Just an observation how the incentivization will work
Yes. We are all starseed. Just that we don't know it yet. Each one will have his moment of revelation.
Remember this post?

I think all the bitcoin adjacent companies are the obvious answer. If you can't pick those probably just Apple or Amazon, they will still be dominant in 10 years.
It's your money and you do with it whatever you want. What won't be ethical is someone judging you to do what you want with what it's yours.
That said... What we have here at the moment it's just a few bucks, probably has more value using these sats to support good content that buying a coffee.
If SN custodian rugs me for 4000 sats, whatever
Making steady progress in my cabin project 🙂 Have been busy laying the mineral wool and vapor barrier. I also managed to start the paneling for the interior walls.
Today I'll plan to continue with the paneling 😉
Have a good one!

I think that Exchanges are the biggest centralization risk right now, people are waking up to the fact that id you are not self sovereign you don't actually own you bitcoin
Tailscale + Zeus + Tor = God Mode
