Why so condescending tho? Nothing wrong with people doing whatever the f*ck they enjoy.
Nice work! Might I suggest a timely SBF portrait? Maybe an American Gothic takeoff with Caroline?
As an equal opportunity downer, I have to challenge Super's use of language here, this is not an asynchronous payment any more than the K1 in a LNURL-Withdraw link or trusted shitcoin swap is.
Since the receiver must come online to sweep the state, it's not asynchronous, it's a promise not unlike any centralized solution.
The internet does not work asynchronously, it works through re-attempts and re-signaling.
Let's talk LSPs!
Thinking about how stacker news feels like Reddit back in 2008. A small but intelligent community, high signal, low noise. Can’t wait to see this grow.
Day 246 of snailposting everyday 'til BTC hits $100k.
...and 46 push-ups. (20 - 20 - 6)

Can confirm that autowithdraw kicked in for me. Thanks!
This seems overly pessimistic. 100M users in 15 years may not seem like a lot if you're talking about a tech company (even though it actually is a lot)... but Bitcoin is money which has probably the strongest network effect of any technology out there, so you can't really judge things in the same way.
When I look at Bitcoin I see a real technological and social achievement. A public decentralized ledger has been running for 15 years with almost zero downtime and miraculously everyone in the world agrees on the state of the ledger. Not only that, peoples' willingness to pay for the asset traded on this ledger has gone from <$1 to $30,000.
Sounds like a success so far to me.
