Well, if that dev Bob cited is right, then Lightning is apparently cooked unless a fix is possible.
If so, Phil has a solid argument as you cannot accommodate coffee buying on bitcoin (without Lightning).
Do I care? Not much as my infrequent txs can still be posted, but it (bitcoin) cannot be a medium of exchange for the planet.
Is BitVM any better? I have no clue, maybe it is too new.
Perplexed.
Last time I'd check, Bitcoin and Lightning was still being developed and improvements are being sort and worked through... am I missing something?.... the narrative over the last a few pages make it seem like, that is it! we are fucked! nothing can be done to solve buying a coffee! stop being a BTC maxer and let LTC/Doge do the lite work. BTW I will be driving to the mine and dropping in 550th of BTC miners and zero Scrypt miners. +2 sMerit for the 550th -1 sMerit for the LTC/Doge statement! Look I am a satoshi guy which means am a POW guy So 3100 watts an hour with a s19xp means 141 x 0.0622 cents or $8.77 a day and 3100 watts hour with an L7 means 9 x 1.31 usd or $11.79 a day so we can argue all you want. but my L7's are paid off and make $3.02 a day more Which if you go back a bit on this thread you will read I cashed LTC and Doge in in order to buy more BTC. So I ask you is spending 3100 watts an hour to get $11.79 in btc better than spending 3100 watts an hour to get $8.77 a day in btc? I have earn more value with Scrypt mining since 2018 than I have with BTC mining . And I am far more invested in BTC gear and power than scrypt . The difference is my Doge mine and hodl was really really really really really good. At the moment I am not holding my LTC or my Doge profits I am cashing them and setting up BTC DCA buys. So if you read this you will see I am a BTC 85% person and 15% Scrypt and it has worked well since 2018 You know i am only joking with you! and yes i know how heavily invested you are in Bitcoin Mining Gear! (Sometimes reading your post makes me want to get back into mining...) And i cannot judge you when it comes to alternative mining.. Hell I've done the same before.. I remembered i had 50+ CPU rigs, that right CPU mining, running on a mining pool called LTCRabbit back in the day... payout and converted them all to Bitcoin. So yes i can relate.. |

By the way, last time I checked, less than 10 sats per vbyte to send transactions is not exactly going to kill anyone... and surely the current mempool status and even in the last three weeks, seems to have had been clearing 2-4 sats per byte without too many difficulties... .. which is $0.20 to $1 per transaction, unless maybe you are combining addresses, but you can send $100 or even $1billion for the same fee. Not exactly expensive or broken... but hey, whine all you like. It's a free country the last time I checked..
For a lot of us, the point was to get away from filthy fiat. The current state of the world financially should have been a huge boon for Bitcoin. Inflation frequently hanging out near double digits screams for an alternative. But when adoption turned to disadoption and the Bitcoin ecosystem withered away, a lot of incentive is lost when you have to deal with exchanges which represent counterparty risk and loss of privacy under US laws. As to fees, it doesn't matter what they are right now but what they would be if Bitcoin was being used in a meaningful manner. But my aim is not to convince anyone here and now, just plant seeds for when people start to open their eyes for themselves. |
