LN+Telecommunications My prompt: How could lightning change messaging if AT&T integrated lightning texts and calls Google Gemini: If AT&Tโ€”or any major telecom providerโ€”integrated Bitcoinโ€™s Lightning Network directly into cellular text messaging and voice calling, it would merge #telecommunications with open value transfer. Instead of phone numbers just being contact identifiers, every phone line would double as a global financial wallet. Lightning allows money to flow in real-time Instead of flat monthly fees, calls could settle at 1 satoshi per second. Sending an SMS could cost fractions of a cent (e.g., 2 sats), eliminating fixed texting plans while drastically curbing spam. AT&T could require incoming calls or SMS from unknown numbers to attach a refundable deposit Carriers wouldn't need to hold foreign currency reserves or charge 3โ€“5% currency conversion markupsโ€”value transfers natively over #Bitcoin. Phone number linked directly to a native Lightning address Instant, near-zero fee routing over global node infrastructure Economic cost to caller Peer-to-peer instant settlement directly to merchant Could #Nostr play a part?
