Have there been any projects working toward combining lightning and hosting data/bandwidth? Like "pay me 1 satoshi/Mb per day or I drop your data".
I invested in Maidsafe about a thousand years ago. They promised something like that. Now with LN, I think it could be possible to do with BTC (save the hash of the data on the blockchain, or OP_RETURN, and have the data hosted on several LN nodes for cheap).

Even if it’s encrypted, how do you trust a third party random to reliably host your data?

Even though the fear level on that site seems to be going down, currently and recently, I thought that I already criticized that website for referring to crypto fear overall rather than bitcoin specific fear.

WTF?! My wife guaranteed me that nobody would get this... Is that your brother with the tattoos or what?
edit: That's very close but not exactly where it is... I guess I should have controlled myself. (I'm a noob at this)
These guys are lethal smart. For sure! That's one of the things I love about this place. Kudos to everyone who tried this challenge. I didn't realize until after I posted but the google images are from 2012 and look quite different which made it difficult and the Romanian street naming convention (if one exists) made it even more challenging. There are 7 major roads coming into/going from this intersection which is called Piata Victoriei. I was standing on the southwest corner of Soseaua Nicolae Titulescu and Strada Buzesti. Micgoossens - Awesome powers of deductive reasoning (maybe more Iron Man than Thor?). Piata Victoriei is correct. BobLawblaw - Your google map link was closest to where I was standing - winner!! Icygreen - Also very close to where I was standing - good job! and JayJuanGee - Nice one!!  Thanks all! That was fun  Sorry for the delay - I'm in UTC+3 time zone right now. Full image:

Even if it’s encrypted, how do you trust a third party random to reliably host your data? Meh, I wasn't thinking much as far as privacy. More akin to decentralized, reliably hosted torrents. But if you had enough "seeders" you could ensure some reliability. I found blockstack which allows for a lot of interesting things in a decentralized way but you have to host your own data or host it on a website. This approach could add that last leg of true decentralization. I thought Storj was trying to do this on Bitcoin but they ended up doing like so many other decent Bitcoin projects and ended up creating a shitcoin so they could get rich on an ICO.

https://www.ccn.com/bitcoin-still-in-the-middle-of-a-bear-market-analyst/Woo continued by supporting his claim using the Bitcoin NVT Ratio, which he terms as his favorite indicator. He explained that the NVT peaks during bear markets, although it has been criticised for being laggy in detecting bears, it is a leading indicator to signal the end of the bear. According to him, NVT returns to it’s normal range before the next accumulation phase, a condition that is yet to be fulfilled. How seriously is he/this article to be taken? My guess is we still are bearish.

Like Ibian said, we are still 50% up from year ago, so chin up ladies! Willy Woo really knows his stuff.

Lol, got my answer

^ i think the chin's of most longer time hodlers are still up, however the boringness from going sideways this long and maybe longer to much longer who knows, will be testing many hodlers patience especially the guy's bought in later ... but the ones with the right intentions of hodling BTC will not be bothered to much ,just keeping the longer term picture in mind
