LN will turn bitcoin into a Visa

yeah...ummmm

I am not able to do  a personal, un-censorable, non-reversible transaction on the Visa mainnet.

You are an idiot.

Ignore engaged.

normal consumers don't want non reversible transactions. Why the fuck would anyone want that, if something goes wrong or your funds are stolen you are fucked.  Credit cards are a million times better than buttcoin.

That calculation is factually incorrect:

1. earth has 7.9 bil inhabitants, not 10.
2. out of 7.9 bil inhabitants, 25% are children below age 14, so total number of transactionally able is not more than 5.9 bil.
3. tx can be batched.

Conclusion: even without batching upper bound is 83 years.
With batching, anywhere between 0.8 and 8.

Still doing some tuning but here are some short fibs and a look into the next week or so. Looks like mostly sideways with a small side of upwards. #dyor

A first skirmish between lying AI and humans:

I hope we don't enable some strong AI with staples optimization production as it would make staples out of everything.

Relevance to bitcoin: negligible, unless people will start using AI to write code.

That calculation is factually incorrect requires some assumptions that may or may not be reasonable:

1. earth has 7.9 bil inhabitants, not 10.

In decades to come? All projections of which I am aware conclude the earth's population will continue to increase.

2. out of 7.9 bil inhabitants, 25% are children below age 14, so total number of transactionally able is not more than 5.9 bil.

In decades to come? All projections of which I am aware conclude the earth's population will continue to gentrify. As if tweens and even chillens are to be locked out of ability to buy bubblegum?

3. tx can be batched.

'Splain me how one onboards _individuals_ in a permissionless decentralized manner using batching?

Conclusion: even without batching upper bound is 83 years.

Only 83? Such a timeline. So, barring any breakthoughs in life extension technology, we'll all be dead before the world can be onboarded to LN. Got it.

(Note: underlines and strikethroughs are mine, not in the Biodom original. duh.)

I've got some idle PC setups, so i think to onboard sometime during the upcoming summer vacation.
There should still be enough tx for me  

Re batching, I don't see any problems with hubs on L2 when L1 is decentralized, hence tx are still permissionless.

For multiple individuals opening LN channels through batching, some intermediary is required in order to create the batch. Hence, not decentralized and not permissionless.

Advice for 2019:  Altcoins are going to pump A LOT harder than bitcoin. Eth and BCH already 2x'd from their recent lows.  Make sure you have your alt bags ready. Eth will outperform btc this year.  Also worth buying xrp even though its a shitcoin that isn't even a crypto but it will pump.

Hey Jbear have you gone all in on SV yet?  If not, what’s the hold up?

[alevlaslo]

if you want to avoid control, you will be offered to pay 1000 bucks for the Commission   You stay in BTC but we'll go to BCH while cheap price of coins
