I feel like it’s similar also with crypto/stablecoins vs bitcoin. In the short term they somehow work well enough that people want to use them and build infrastructure around them. 😞

I think it takes time to compete for the network effect. People want to post where they have the most impact, I think

What would you do with 25 vms? Build vibecoded apps in a sandboxed environment?

Any ideas why this is the case?

Do you mean, they exclusively use self-custody wallets?

Couldn’t you compare an Ark wallet to something like Phoenix where users are stuck with a single LSP? I don’t agree with the roach motel idea. It’s much easier to accumulate and then exit versus providing all liquidity up front. Also, if users get censored and KYC’d the service will fail. There are some great developers working on Ark implementations, they aren’t building this to rugpull users…

I think this is when someone requests a very large invoice from your lightning address with probably no intention to actually pay it. I can see how it can be misleading and the copy of the email can be improved. We will look into it

Thanks! I deleted all the offline ones already but it’s hard to choose which other ones to delete, surely there must be more factors other than ping

I guess all the relevant metrics so I can choose a few good relays and get rid of all my unnecessary ones

That’s a shame, it looks like what I was hoping for!
