I read it in its entirety. As someone who spent time learning about Bitcoin, it feels good to be back in a bull market.

Have you read Birth of Bitcoin? Apart from Bitcoin Standard, this is my new favorite Bitcoin book.

and if you ever get the shitpile that is Lightning working, 7 TPS will still not be enough to support enough people opening and closing Lightning channels for it to be usable by 20% of the population as a currency

For now, global-scale solutions can be done with Fedimint or Cashu, but they need some trust from federations.

ARK seems to be the best for speed, reliability and costs. https://stephanlivera.com/episode/482/

Hacash and Zenon will be good in the future for those who want to hold their keys. I can't wait to see what both of them can do.
