“This technology is a huge enabler for properly priced liquidity on Layer 2 which leads to a new "risk free rate" in global capital markets.” is a quote from a tweet by Preston Pysh. Yesterday I wrote a new Lightning Focus article for @Bitcoin Focus including: - A compelling proposal to make transactions more deterministic by making off-chain sending and receiving payments no longer dependent on fluctuating on-chain costs. - A study by Anita Posch on how the various Lightning wallets perform under difficult internet conditions. - DLC Markets (what Preston's quote is about), a new standard in derivatives trading with Bitcoin as the underlying infrastructure. For all Lightning fanatics who like it: Read the entire article here 👇🏻 (Link leads to translated article to Englisch)

"There's nothing at the protocol level that prevents people to build apps just as good as Twitter or as Instagram." - William Casarin @Stef⚡️🌍 and I talked to @jb55 about the Nostr, the Damus app and everyting decentralised! We talked about: 🔸 The journey of William from a 10-year-old programming enthusiast to challenging the status quo with Nostr and Damus. 🔸 In-depth insights on how Nostr ensures censorship resistance and user sovereignty, standing in stark contrast to traditional social media. 🔸 The future of Nostr and how it could revolutionize not just social media but a plethora of online applications. 🔸 William's perspective on the growth and adoption of the Lightning Network, particularly through the integration of "Zaps" in Nostr. Why This Matters: 🔥 Understand the critical role of technologies like Nostr in safeguarding free speech and user autonomy online. 🔥 Explore the synergies between Bitcoin, the Lightning Network, and Nostr, and how they're shaping a new digital landscape. 🎥 Check out the full interview:

“I consider LN a done deal.” said the developer of the Small Bitcoin Wallet. For @Bitcoin Focus I wrote a new #LightningFocus including an interesting discussion between @ZEUS and @OpenSecret about #hodl invoices and their impact on Lightning payments. You can also read more about Universal Money Address, a service from David Marcus (Lightspark) and Bakkt, to receive and hold fiat money, while using the bitcoin lightning network as a payment rail. This also has the potential to spark discussion 😉 And why the #Bitcoin derivatives exchange Kollider stopped its activities.
