#Bitcoin protocol is currently unusable because of a spam attack (spamtokens on Bitcoin). We did nothing to prevent this and we can't fix it now. We can only deal with it. We'll remember this as "that time we had the good money but we weren't ready for Lightning."

Everyday I have calls with users from different countries. I have a curiosity: why some German users say "Ciao" (Italian for "Hi" or "By") and Romanian/Moldovan users say "Merci!" (French for "Thank you")?

BSV fanboys, trying to rise from the ashes: "Bitcoin nodes are purging TXs will less than 5 sat/vbyte!1!" Me: "Hold my beer, and my 1 sat/vbyte TX."

Now, this is not a tragedy, but it's objectively a problem, when all major Bitcoin wallets are not ready for Lightning. And I mean real non-custodial Lightning with an optimized UX. Too much, too soon. image

I increased my Mempool size to 1 GB. Probably it's useless, but if you want to send 1 sat/vbyte transaction I don't see why you shouldn't be able to do it. image

It's interesting. Startups are in a situation in which they need to decide if they want to sell the USD they still have in their bank accounts (if able to withdraw) for #Bitcoin and expose themselves to volatility (with risk of losing a %), or remain with their USD and risk of losing everything.
