That's awesome! What talk was this? I was also curious in 2011, but didn't get off my butt until 8 years ago. I think I have Andreas to thank for really changing my perspective and realizing I needed to be involved. We didn't have the Anita Posch Show back then. 😂

We did it! The Bitcoin network is currently being secured by 1.1 zettahash! Who else is contributing? https://image.nostr.build/e8d06c9ced45e14986e24ecfadc7131df009a14e5b79d005df701ff5a1a67e51.jpg

I've been waiting a long time for that BOLT12 tattoo. Maybe next week?

We had fun encountering this particular fee environment scenario in Core Lightning for the first time. The minimum acceptable feerate could end up the same as the proposed feerate (typically they are relatively far apart.) Then if one node increased by a single sat it would disable the channel and force a disconnect due to feerate disagreement. We now ensure a minimum offset (by the feerate proposer) to account for the next_block_feerate == min_relay_feerate situation.

I tipped my Uber driver last week by having him download phoenix. I'd say it was a pretty good onboarding experience - you can get the sense of it right off the bat. This mempool environment may change the calculus though.
Will be interested to hear your approach at the farmers' market.

I have two yubikeys registered. One just sits in a safe deposit box as a backup.
