No, using custodial lightning isn't "purely sovereign" - but if you're using this service & self custodying Bitcoin and running a node - you have achieved one of the highest levels of monetary sovereignty that has ever existed.

Dreaming of a front porch fit enough for banjo plucking.
Specializing in forestry and agriculture for over a decade.
I'm seeing a lot of "How can I get one whole coin" content floating around out there. Makes me think we're at an inflection point.
This path diverges from stacking whole coins into stacking sats. Unit bias be damned - of all the roadblocks to understanding Bitcoin, this one isn't even on the radar.
In 5 years it won't be weird to see hair-gel bros posting ๐thumbnail videos with the title:
HOW TO GROW YOUR NOSTR FOLLOWING FOR THE MOST ZAPS
Ok...maybe 10 years, but that shit gonna be funny.
If I think I look good in a suit does that make me a suitcoiner?

USD that would be going into the corn is making it's way into Bitcoin treasury plays.
USD that wants access to the corn knows how to get it, especially if it's in size.
Treasury companies are steering USD capital away from the corn.
Peer to peer soap distribution this past weekend at #LakeSatoshi went so well. Grateful for all of the people I was able to share some time with.
Morning swims, campfire conversations, and laughs all around.


@UNCLE ROCKSTAR GM bro. I'm wondering if Bitcoinize POS machines can have fiat apps downloaded to them too to accept USD.
Been doing business in bitcoin only for a year, and thinking about scaling up to fiat markets.
If you look younger than thirty five, and you tell me you were mining bitcoins in 2009 I'm calling bullshit.
I've met so many people who have told me they were early to Bitcoin, but their story doesn't add up...liars.
Old women, young men - they were humans looking for connection. You don't have to lie to get this.

One week until #LakeSatoshi
I miss the Andreas Antonopoulos era. So many people haven't say with Andreas talks and it shows.

Saylor obsession should become a meme.
Ever been ping pinged around by government employees trying to find an answer?
Yeah, that's public choice theory working in full force against you. The root of libertarianism.

Does Bitcoin "need" the money printer at this point in time?
Like, if the money printer vanished, would the resulting economic tsunami affect a critical blow to the network?
