I've been working on an open-source project called Conduit — a Lightning SDK that lets software agents send and receive sats programmatically, self-hosted and non-custodial.

It's MIT licensed and live on PyPI and npm. Sharing it here mainly to get eyes from people who know Lightning well and can tell me what I'm missing.

Not selling anything — it's free and open source. Just looking for honest technical feedback.

I stay fairly involved to Bitcoin and MSTR discussions, but I never understand the hate for Michael Saylor. I get the initial suspicion, as he was convicted for securities fraud in the early 2000’s, and that he has somewhat delusional takes, but he’s not really a short term bull. Most of his keynote speeches involve him saying that Bitcoin needs to take up 1% of global capital, but it may take the world 10+ years to get there. I find that a lot more bearish than most of what I read on the Bitcoin forums.

What he says isn’t really too crazy. If Bitcoin can get adopted by the store of value category (Real Estate, Art, Gold, etc..) than I don’t think it’s far fetched to see Bitcoin become a $10 trillion asset within the next 10 years or so. I would honestly say that most of us that hold Bitcoin would agree with that. So what’s everyone’s problem with Micheal Saylor??

How to buy bitcoin as all apps I have tried won't except it due to my id being expired

From Satochi, to my small savings, and through all the narratives around the chosen one crypto I just love Bitcoin.

This is a message to the impatient who found Bitcoin in the past 5 years (like me):

​

My question to guys without a lot of Bitcoin:

​

Why exactly do you want Bitcoin to go up in fiat terms? Do you own a lot? Are you a multicoiner? No? Then why would you want a higher price? Instead of larping & complaining, you should be out there stacking harder than ever. This is a BLESSING for you, Bitcoin is very cheap right now in relative terms. DCA & CHILL.

​

Second question to the ones with a larger stack:

​

Are you ready mentally? What if the price jumped to $500k today? Would you spend your coin(s) wrecklessly, give up your Bitcoin in a hurry to buy stupid sh#t that will be absolutely worthless in 10 years? How much knowledge did you absorb in 3-5 years, enough to stop that urge? If not, you might want to up that, in the meantime: DCA & CHILL.

​

DCA & CHILL really is the universal piece of advice for everyone here.

Except pioneers pre-2017 maybe, but those guys are on a beach somewhere in the Caribbean anyway, they're not complaining & bitching about their $500 investment going down 50% in imaginary fiat cuck buck terms.

I wanted to try my hand at Bitcoin education because the best way to learn is to teach. Please let me know what you think of the presentation and any improvements I can make. Thank you.
