I was on LinkedIn reading a post where someone was complaining about not getting paid for his services for some work done over Christmas or something.
First I thought, bitcoin is 24/7 so getting a deposit over Christmas wouldn't be an issue.
Then, I wondered, isn't a lightning channel essentially an escrow?

Any BJJ practitioners around the South East US? What city? I'm thinking about going on a gym tour.
The demand for positive experiences is infinite. I think I'm going to leverage this by just being cool to people.
Can't hurt to try. What's the worst that could happen?
Is there a quick start guide for ecash? I'm thinking as a user, not a developer.
Even if you believed that the government should be funded at it's current levels, you have to admit that the income tax is the most convoluted and f'd up way to fund it.
I think everyone should know about Daryl Davis.
His technique for talking to those who hate you is becoming more valuable over time.

If you DM me and I don't reply, don't take it personally, I just assume you aren't a real person. Not sure how to get past that.
There's a fake Jeff Booth on the loose.

Anybody need any help?
I'm good at the following:
Mechanical Engineering
Math
Little programming (especially in areas related to the topics above.)
BJJ
probably some other stuff
Not looking for a job, just hoping to meet people and maybe build something cool.
I gave up on trying to set up Alby on windows. Is there another way to connect lightning to nostr? Lets start with opening a lightning wallet on windows.
Any suggestions?
What if bitcoin does wind up being only accessible by nations or the uber wealthy? Maybe this falls short of what you have in mind but I believe hard money at the level of nations at least makes war less likely. That's not too bad.
I'm not really sure of the mechanism that would cause bitcoin to be unusable by individuals. Is it just that utxo's owned by ordinary people will be so small that fees will render them unspendable?
I think the genie is out of the bottle anyway, if not bitcoin, something else will come along for us average folks to transact in.
