“Umbrel servers are powering 90% of all the Lightning Network nodes launched over the last year. What’s more exciting is the fact that the world’s most open, fair, and decentralized monetary network isn’t powered by AWS but by “average people” running Bitcoin and Lightning nodes in their homes. People are voting with their feet by participating directly at the protocol layer and not just the application layer, bypassing all intermediaries.”
