Thanks for your help! You think it's the same guy using different accounts?

Guys,

The LN is a great re-invention and a smart try of bringing back micropayments into the Bitcoin world that faded away when the transfer fees had risen significantly.

I really like this technology and actually I dropped from the btc world about 3 years ago when micropayments became expensive, in 2020  I decided to take another look to see what's going on and discovered the LN.

To get you started, please check out this thread to get your 200 satoshis to play around with the LN bitcoins:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5275451.0

For some more fun, visit my Telegram channel where we occasionally play a simple Lightning Dice doing small quick and easy bets (100-1000 satoshis depending on the mood) via LN:
https://web.telegram.org/#/im?p=g407859681
  
You will see how easy and simple you can send and receive a couple of $$ via the LN.

Word of Caution: For the start, install one of the easiest custodial wallets like Wallet of Satoshi or Blue Wallet. Leave more advance stuff for the future.

GO LIGHTNING GO !!

Also checkout a simple faucet giving you 100 LN satoshis:

You need to have a Lightning Wallet installed and configured.

To avoid initial configuration issues, I would advise to start easy with custodial wallets like Blue Wallet or Wallet of Satoshi.

You will be able to migrate to Electrum later (I didn't because Wallet of Satoshi is fully OK for my micro- and mini-payments via LN).

paxful, buddy

No worry, your status tells that all :-)

Hi, nice stuff!

You accept Bitcoin Lightning ?

Especially, for micro- and minipayments! Lightning is quick and cheap.

Just for fun, I am hosting a Live Lightning Dice for people to try Lightning micropayments (bet=100 sats) (disclaimer: it's a non-profit project, i run it for promoting Lightning ):

http://tawk.to/bpovtmg

For the new Lightning users, first 200 sats are free from me to play around with Receiving/Sending Lightning payments.

BIG THANKS for that.

In any way, I found a good workaround if the receiving part could be offline. You just send a Lightning gift (www.lightning.gifts) and the receiving party can redeem it when they want.

It is too dangerous to put significant amounts of your money into quasi-banks like Perfect Money.

Think in % of your wealth, not in absolute $$. If $50000 is just 0.001% of your assets, then you can store it wherever you see fit. If you lose it, it is not a life disaster.

But if it is a 90% of your total assets, then you MUST diversify:

- Cash (USD normally, properly secured and stored)
- Deposits in a Reliable Bank
- Government or other AAA bonds (US government treasury bonds etc)
- Gold (maybe)
- Bitcoins (maybe)

You may keep some money at those providers like Perfect Money just for tactical reasons like fastness of sending fiat into a BTC exchange etc.
 

Hi, Guys!

If you do not know it yet, the Bitcoin Lightning Network (LN) is a cool new technology for quick and cheap micropayments.

If you didn't try it yet, you can do it in a very funny way.

1) Go to my Telegram Channel:

https://t.me/joinchat/SE9pUBhPceH6ZyFn6cZTig

2) Throw a Dice with me (i tell you how, there is a pinned message there)

3) If you win, you get 100 sats into your Lightning-enabled wallet (Wallet of Satoshi, Blue wallet etc)

4) If you lose, well, you owe nothing  :-)

Thanks for the note! According to the rules, the prize goes to the 4th participant in the drawing list.

@Danslip : get your $1 of satoshis :-), post a LN payment request

Check your PM, there is a gift waiting for you!

Used an alternative method. Sent you a Lightning Gift (see the link in PM)

Thanks, didn't know that.

There is a good workaround using Lightning Gifts (www.lightning.gifts).

Start easy.

Don't overwhelm yourself too much with details, channels etc.

Download one of easiest wallets (Blue Wallet, Wallet of Satoshi) and post a payment request for 200 sats here .

It will work.

The coins in LN are spendable if the counterpart accepts them, if not you can use them as normal btc (onchain).

Which one would you like ?
