Last Notes npub17tlh448s3tfdfgymehqdkdn52as59qsrax0n9h58pk54wcmqyc2qklzsxj LightningNetwork+ ⚖️ Channel rebalancing is the “inventory management” of Lightning routing: keeping enough liquidity on the right side of your channels so payments can flow smoothly. This post explains how to spot imbalance, set realistic targets, and use practical approaches like circular rebalances, fee tuning, and smarter peer/channel choices to improve reliability without burning fees. It also notes a handy option for LN+ Liquidity Swap participants: once channels open, LN+ provides instructions to rebalance the group’s triangles, squares, and pentagons so the swap can start routing better faster. #bitcoin #lightning https://lightningnetwork.plus/posts/675 npub17tlh448s3tfdfgymehqdkdn52as59qsrax0n9h58pk54wcmqyc2qklzsxj LightningNetwork+ 🤝 Welcome to the Lightning Market! npub17tlh448s3tfdfgymehqdkdn52as59qsrax0n9h58pk54wcmqyc2qklzsxj LightningNetwork+ 💜 Over 118,000 comments have been shared on LN+ by more than 11,000 Lightning Network node operators.

But what does a bank do? It securely holds your money for savings and capital accumulation, offers investment assets to guard against inflation and grow purchasing power, provides access to networks for sending money to family, business partners, or merchants, and, in some cases, facilitates the issuance of new money under specific rules. Nobody argues that these functions are useless, nor that banks have no value. Bitcoin, however, provides all these services—often more effectively than any bank. It offers safer storage for savings and capital accumulation, acts as a speculative investment with an unparalleled track record (outperforming any asset offered by banks over the last decade), and enables money transfers to anyone globally at a fraction of traditional banking costs. Furthermore, Bitcoin’s network handles systemic issuance through mining rewards, which are completely predictable and transparent, unlike the ad hoc and often excessive money printing by banks. So, if banks have value, how can anyone argue that Bitcoin lacks it? In fact, Bitcoin should arguably be valued much higher, given that its services outperform those of banks in all major aspects. Currently, the combined market capitalization of all banks worldwide is approximately $10 trillion, while Bitcoin’s market cap is around $2 trillion. One could argue that Bitcoin is significantly undervalued and, as adoption grows, it could match or surpass the $10 trillion mark based on the superior services it provides. Moreover, Bitcoin has the potential to capture market share from other asset classes, such as gold or real estate. Considering this, it’s reasonable to suggest that Bitcoin’s market cap could easily surpass $20 trillion in the long term. That’s $1M per 1 BTC, which is cent parity with satoshi. This event will likely mark the point of bitcoin singularity, beyond which the valuation of BTC is unpredictable and also loses meaning in fiat terms. We may see a total paradigm shift away from fiat currencies around the world and the start of hyper-bitcoinisation. npub17tlh448s3tfdfgymehqdkdn52as59qsrax0n9h58pk54wcmqyc2qklzsxj LightningNetwork+ ⚡️ We're about to reach 10,000 registered and verified users on LN+!

This is due to how the transaction is encoded in the block; it uses a non-standard scripting language which does not include spending instructions, making the initial 50 BTC locked and inoperable. Satoshi didn't even want to premine the first bitcoin block. Another lesser-known fact about the Bitcoin Genesis block is the hidden message embedded within it by Satoshi Nakamoto. In addition to the well-known text from The Times newspaper headline (“The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks”), the block contains the value 486604799 in its coinbase parameter. This number, when interpreted as a hexadecimal string (0x1D00FFFF), represents the easiest possible mining difficulty for the Genesis block. One final, lesser-known aspect about the Bitcoin Genesis block is that it wasn't actually broadcast to the network in the conventional sense since there was no network at that time. Satoshi Nakamoto mined this block on a single computer, and it only became part of the blockchain when other nodes joined the network later. This means the Genesis block was essentially a solitary event, unique in that it didn't need validation from other nodes to confirm its existence. This underscores the unique, bootstrapped nature of Bitcoin's initial implementation, where the blockchain started from a single point of origin before growing into a distributed network. npub17tlh448s3tfdfgymehqdkdn52as59qsrax0n9h58pk54wcmqyc2qklzsxj LightningNetwork+ 🐝 New store in the #bitcoin #lightningnetwork marketplace selling 🍯 #honey: https://lightningnetwork.plus/stores/sweetsats npub17tlh448s3tfdfgymehqdkdn52as59qsrax0n9h58pk54wcmqyc2qklzsxj LightningNetwork+ 👏 Nearly 900 #bitcoin #lightningnetwork nodes on LN+ have earned the *Prime* status, meaning they’ve received 10 or more positive ratings 👍 with a 90%+ approval rate: https://lightningnetwork.plus/prime_nodes npub17tlh448s3tfdfgymehqdkdn52as59qsrax0n9h58pk54wcmqyc2qklzsxj LightningNetwork+ I will look into it!
