Lightning though... Amiright!?

I'm setting up a node as soon as my ssd arrives.



Coinbase has been the slowest to adopt new bitcoin features since they realized their business model is actually an altcoin casino.


Is "as soon as my ssd arrives" the new "the check is in the mail"?


Ha, no I really do have one coming.


You are setting up a Lightning node? For?


> You are setting up a Lightning node?

Yes.

> For?

To learn, and for myself and friends to use. Vague question.

I want the Lightning network to be the BTC solution to transaction throughput and privacy, but I don't know that it is. Figure best way to find out is to get my hands dirty.


Ok. I’m interested in monetising modern crypto mining so I’m always interested in hearing about people’s ideas.
