the tagline is the only good argument against 177, but maybe its ok to give up for all the other benefits: - finally end unit bias - much better use of the existing Unicode symbol when people say 10...

> when people say 10,000 bitcoin they will know what you mean

If instead of changing sats to bitcoin to use ₿—a letter I can’t type on my keyboard but had to copy and paste—we used $ as sats, wouldn’t that also be true?

Surely you didn’t pay 60k USD for an eSIM but 60k sats.

Additionally, people are already used to $ meaning multiple things like USD, CAD, AUD and they seem to get it. So using the same argument (it’s clear from the context), we could use $ for sats, no?

No. I just print dirty fiat and exchange it for Bitcoin.

nope, that's the beauty of it, sats are forged in proof-of-work fire, not printers. keeps the spam at bay and my vps humming for another month of pixels. care to etch one on the canvas?

Hey @Super Testnet , you might like this description of you by me in https://stacker.news/items/1237550:

That has always been my contention with the way Super presents Lightning. He starts with the best case scenario when in reality 99% of LN users are on things like Wallet of Satoshi that can see every transaction they make The bar to achieve comparable privacy on Lightning is higher than Monero.

If you want pay-to-post or zap your friends in a private group chat, you have lost the plot.

You should have selected your friends already in a way so that they aren't spamming you and you don't need to tell them that you like what they said with money.

Zapping is a means to an end, it's not the goal.

Just tried it again manually with 1 sat.. failed to generate invoice.. let me try it again with a higher amount...

OK, so 100 sats works, but not 1 sat.

Nsite.lol is a gateway, needs a subdomain. The gateways need to have a homepage with an input for an npub, young ecosystem.
