Made my first payment with Lightning. Costs me $0.09 AUD to open a payment channel. TX fee on the sale cost me $0.0021 AUD Purchase was roughly $17 AUD. Payment took 2 seconds to confirm and be processed.
Unfairly cheap and ridiculously fast.
A digital currency that would survive a nuclear war: the full Bitcoin transaction history, all the way back to the genesis block, exists in over 11,000 copies located in over 100 countries -- and that's just counting the copies running live.

Today, my wife finally stopped blaming me for not selling at $20K. She said it's ok because her friend read somewhere that it will go above $30K this year. 😐

Her friend is a hair stylist and thinks #bitcoin is a physical coin. 😐

Don't get married. 😐🔫
Mempool has now been empty for three consecutive weeks. 1 sat / byte txs are being cleared on the next block. Sending #bitcoin still costs a fraction of a cent. Scaling debates are now a thing of the past. 👏🎉 #bitcoinisscaling#segwit
Lightning is the TCP/IP of BTC. It will ultimately enable far more than just "fast payments" as innovators build more layers on top. This isn't even Bitcoin's final form!
This is truly amazing! We now have 538 lightning nodes with 1,326 channels running on mainnet. 🎉. Total capacity has now reached 5.46 $BTC. With #SegWit coming to @coinbase, we may soon see the first lightning txs go mainstream. 🚀⚡️ #SegWit#LightningNetwork#Bitcoin
