re Square Cash app, i was fascinated to hear a snippet from Jack Dorsey in https://stephanlivera.com/episode/52
iirc he said 'we have a huge network of buyers'
now either that's good businesstalk for 'we have very few buyers' or he's truthful, which I buy, and a huge network by his standards is pretty large. pretty pretty large

people use it i gather to dollar cost average in (?)

To hear him talk about bitcoin on the Joe Rogan Experience, it sounds like he is really going all in on BTC and Twitter. It will be phenomenally cool if they actually add the LN tipping button right into Twitter. Of course that would require that all participants are already connected to the LN. It was a big headache six months ago, a small headache now, and hopefully not one at all six months from now.



Theymos probably won't do the same for the forum, being stuck between not wanting to rely on a 3rd party service and acknowledging that both parties need to be online when conducting a LN transaction... That's a shame though cuz I think it would encourage people to learn how to use Lightning.

LN is probably unsuitable for tips since the recipient has to be online. That's why these LN tipbots all hold your money, which I'm not a fan of. If you're using LN through a trusted third party, then you're better off not using it at all.
