I want to share my opinion on how much a node or multiple nodes in the #Bitcoin #LightningNetwork can earn for their owners, using the example of my own nodes. I will provide the figures as an annual percentage.<br/><br/>Currently, over approximately five days, the entire network of my nodes earns about 500,000 satoshis per day on average. This is an average parameter. 500,000 satoshis is 0.005 bitcoins.<br/><br/>The liquidity on my side across all nodes is roughly around 300 bitcoins. So, let's simply calculate the annual percentage. You can roughly calculate it like this: 0.005 bitcoin multiplied by 365 days divided by 300 bitcoins. Multiply by 100%, and it comes out to about 0.6% profit from fees, which are currently at 700 ppm + 1 sat base fee.<br/><br/>This formula does not take into account the costs for opening channels, which include on-chain fees for Bitcoin channel opening transactions, nor does it include various expenses related to channel closures, whether automatic or forced, cooperative or forced. We are just taking the net figure as if the same channels were open all year without any expenses. You should also consider the risks associated with annual node maintenance. These include hosting costs, creating backups, labor efforts, and the risks of node hacking, which could theoretically be hacked and have all funds stolen.<br/><br/>Is this a profitable venture? You decide for yourselves.

one is certainly quickly falling behind, so the following statement might be already outdated.<br/><br/>With that said:<br/><br/>While Primal seems to have - currently - the best UX ( you can read most notes and loading times are fast - which is not necessarily true for some other interfaces such as Snort or Iris)... when it comes to &#34;ZAP&#34;ping, it seems that it simply is not possible if you follow standard Bitcoin security practices.<br/><br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/PmiJ.png"> w<br/><br/>As in:<br/><br/>You never (as in: NEVER!) have the ability to sign transactions on the same device that you use to browse the Internet.<br/><br/>Currently - it seems - &#34;zap&#34;ping on Primal requires either the Primal Wallet/App ( I use a Browser and keep any apps on my phones to an absolute minimum - hence not an option ) and or NWC... which also requires signing capability on the same device that you use to browse the Internet.<br/><br/>On some of the other Nostr clients it is possible to zap from a different device - you can press the &#34;zap&#34; button, obtain a QR code/Lightning invoice... and then simply scan the QR code from a separate dedicated device connected to a dedicated node.<br/><br/>Browsing and transaction signing capabilities clearly separated.<br/><br/>Currently Primal makes it easy if you are fine to ignore these iron security rules - but also leads to more Sats being held in a closed ecosystem/custodial where... it is absolutely not necessary (imho).<br/><br/>The current way the Zap mode on Primal is provided is not interoperable with any other Lightning wallet (and/or node!) - it requires you to have Sats on your Primal Wallet and/or NWC... on the same device that you use to browse the Internet.<br/><br/>Some (most?) people might just not care, but it&#39;s currently the &#34;main blocker&#34; in my personal Primal UX.<br/><br/>I do not want to install an app.<br/><br/>I do not want to install a Browser extension.<br/><br/>Kim Jong Un wants me to press the button - and I do not want to press it.<br/><br/>Yes, it is paranoid.<br/><br/>But as the old saying goes:<br/><br/>&#34;Only the paranoid survive&#34;.<br/><br/>Or the recent beautiful iteration of it by <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/nprofile1qyt8wumn8ghj7ct5d3shxtnwdaehgu3wd3skueqpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqqgpdnpemykljmknpg95y63x4adm27k03vaug5k8rvw43vu07lm587gxwls58" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>nprofile1qyt8wumn8ghj7ct5d3shxtnwdaehgu3wd3skueqpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqqgpdnpemykljmknpg95y63x4adm27k03vaug5k8rvw43vu07lm587gxwls58</span> (<span class="italic">nprofile…ls58</span>)</a></span> :<br/><br/>&#34;Systems that heavily rely on trust have the best UX until they have the worst UX.&#34;<br/><br/>Currently on Primal, if I want to zap someone - I need to load the note via a different interface... and hope, that I can even load the note.<br/><br/>At which point - unless I really, really want to zap the person - the drop-off rate increases drastically and the Zap will not take place.<br/><br/>With that said:<br/><br/>All of this might have already been solved at the time of writing - and I just haven&#39;t discovered yet how to do so.<br/><br/>If so, feel free to call me out as a noob&#39;ish Nostr laggard - and lmk how to zap on Primal from a different device than the one used to browse the internet. 2025-03-20T16:19:48Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsvylhg97z2j8cjzv46lcfw9lkykcw5y3t2ls2ttqjdy8ukyc2s9sqzyqu9w7q75vuwrymsac99pqe06nj4m9899lelgefm3e2fftmd40nyj4eyr4u In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsvgvuzl0sn4ssnkj3mw74587y2njdh8d640t8yd66wkq8edh6aupgpz3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wcpa3e2g'>nevent1q…3e2g</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Congrats guys! <br/><br/>Leading by example. 2025-03-02T04:16:47Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsd3sxuf5kv3gdjqu2ve4jfjj895cmhnaldvhex2sc74ecsm9lx2mczyqu9w7q75vuwrymsac99pqe06nj4m9899lelgefm3e2fftmd40nyjdmlnp7 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs9fp55lh7dnxvnrv4h2w772hjsc0s2w6zxekupx4gy748prhvjs8spz3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wce9jhfs'>nevent1q…jhfs</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Toying around with it or rather &#34;learning by doing&#34;.<br/><br/>Speeds up the knowledge acquisition of what works/doesn&#39;t work with Nostr at the current stage. 2025-02-19T11:52:07Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsw9zuzv0fp87xcpjexjuzf4nzfkp0le49dt3h0vw7ffp680yfa7kczyqu9w7q75vuwrymsac99pqe06nj4m9899lelgefm3e2fftmd40nyj9s77qg In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs96wu9zarkexal632yneglttyk5hc5jc7geqz3p5mdpn60r5urcyqpzemhxw309ucnjv3wxymrst338qhrww3hxumnw8fp7ul'>nevent1q…p7ul</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Yep (pic is not from our phone - but we had the same model and same trendy pale yellow 70&#39;s style colouring).<br/><br/>All the numbers in our suburb where 4 or 5 digit.<br/><br/>Also had the big heavy physical printed paper phone books with everyone&#39;s address and number laying next to it 😄 2025-02-19T11:27:03Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsztj9amsg7wrl493f2cxt8x4y66amrvfljxg0mkmvtcl74ktv6p5gzyqu9w7q75vuwrymsac99pqe06nj4m9899lelgefm3e2fftmd40nyj30wfa8 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsw67fq0wg2lr8rduu3ap5kcl5tgas606ykjm8y0fdtjw2v4xseaaqpzemhxw309ucnjv3wxymrst338qhrww3hxumnwed9l7s'>nevent1q…9l7s</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>In Germany that was still pretty much the standard until the mid-90s.<br/><br/>One of the beauties I grew up with.<br/><br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/PCVG.png"> 2025-02-19T04:15:47Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsp0elaujs9eau3r3wqm74h965qrskl8vrw83acg54umpt7azfz5uqzyqu9w7q75vuwrymsac99pqe06nj4m9899lelgefm3e2fftmd40nyjdlej5g In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqspqeg7s6dmcl8lumvlps2chrzxn0p7vamrl9q6jt7na7pt350ylucpzemhxue69uhky6t5vdhkjmn9wgh8xmmrd9skcf4wc90'>nevent1q…wc90</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/> Still relatively &#34;fresh/inexperienced&#34;

I have been lucky enough to meet people from all over the world and some of my deepest friendships are a product of starting to interact with people online. Most of my adult jobs came from working at internet companies, and I helped scale teams that were totally remote and built incredible things with people whom I never actually met. <br/><br/>What the internet opens each of us up to is a radically new and different form of life. One where we are no longer limited to relationships just within our immediate proximity, but that we can seek out others like us from all over the plant to create, build, inspire, grow, and love together. It is truly profound what we are building here with Nostr and Bitcoin and the very real hope and agency that it can offer to all people everywhere, forever. It is the hope of an internet where all peoples who participate and create it together are self-sovereign; owning their data, wealth, and health of their digital life to enhance and liberate the lives they experience and are reflected in meatspace. <br/><br/>Thanks to each and everyone of you for believing in this vision we all share of an internet that is truly free, and beyond the power and control of any nation-state, corporation, or government to use against any of us. It is a task that is reserved for only us, and this generation of peoples at this time. We can lose this all and be doomed to a life for ourselves and all postally to come inside of a guild panoptic cage controlled and owned by states and corporations where the very concept of privacy is eliminated. That is a world that we cannot allow to come into existence, and with each and every one of you fighting against it, I know that we will win. <br/><br/>Thank you for believing in this, for working on it, and for participating.

investments make financial sense. <br/><br/>As long as Bitcoin remains in its monetization phase, it will likely continue to outperform almost every other investment you could consider in terms of risk-reward ratio.<br/><br/>It is exceptionally difficult to find investments that have a reasonable chance to yield a positive ROI when measured in BTC. <br/><br/>The only outliers might be some successful, high-flying startups, but those come naturally with a high risk of failure.<br/><br/>Otherwise, unless a business can consistently achieve growth of 50%+ per year, it&#39;s tough to justify allocating any capital to it.<br/><br/>Some potential &#34;non-monetary&#34; justifications to invest regardless:<br/><br/>a) you treat these investments as &#34;insurance&#34; in case Bitcoin fails<br/><br/>An insurance generally COSTS money, but provides you with downside protection.<br/><br/>b) If investing into startups, beyond the pure monetary return:<br/><br/>You get something out of it beyond a pure &#34;financial investment.<br/><br/>- e.g. you gain closer practical expertise/insight into a general sector worthwhile paying attention to<br/><br/>- you have the ability to work with some of the brightest and dynamic minds and &#34;level up&#34; your own expertise<br/><br/>- the start-up is building solutions complimentary to your own core business (hence: strengthening your own business positioning alongside on a mutually beneficial basis)<br/><br/>- stuff &#34;you want to see exist/happening&#34; (which is almost semi-altruistic motive)<br/><br/>These factors might make investing outside the Bitcoin realm worthwhile, despite the significant risks involved.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/>With that said, being more cautious in allocating capital is NOT a negative thing.<br/><br/>It encourages savings by only allocating capital to actually viable business models.<br/><br/>Very different from investing on a fiat standard where you can spray your $$$ around wildly and still &#34;be profitable&#34;, especially since on a weak money standard blowing (&amp; bursting) bubble investments are highly encouraged.<br/><br/>While few things are built to last and the capital stock of society is eroded along the way... 2024-08-30T17:05:23Z
