Do you know of any projects which need data analytics/engineering expertise?
Even if it’s just optimizing SQL queries for an application, I can help. But analytics-focused engineering… I have not heard of or found much to contribute to in the Bitcoin world (outside say Mempool Space). Please lmk if you know of something.

@average_bitcoiner fr I would love to contribute. But I don’t build applications, I do data pipelines/models/viz. I can learn app dev but if I’m gonna do open source I wanna start with something I’m good at.
Have you looked into lightning?
