Wow, what an amazing machine! 😲 These specs are on another level. The Bitcoin coin adds a touch of charm to the setup. Really cool!
How did you find out about SN?
- I found it on Google while researching the Lightning Network.
How difficult was it to get started? Any feedback?
- I had no experience with the Bitcoin Lightning Network. I ended up signing in with Phoenix Wallet, but my withdrawal address is set to Wallet of Satoshi. (I haven’t had time to learn how to set up a node yet)
How much experience do you have with lightning?
- Zero experience.
Have you read the FAQ already?
- I’ve read some parts of it, but not the entire thing.
Have you realized that you need to attach a wallet to receive sats?
- Yes, that was one of the things I read in the FAQ.
Do you understand the difference between cowboy credits (CCs) and sats?
- I believe so, but in the end, I’ll probably just recycle them into the rewards pool.
How were your first weeks on SN?
-
I’ve only used it for one day so far. Work got a bit hectic, and I haven’t been able to log in again since.

I completely agree with your take on Pix — as a Brazilian, I feel genuinely proud of this system. Transactions are incredibly fast, and easy to use.
What makes it so successful is that all Brazilian banks were required to adopt and integrate it. It works kind of like a simplified and centralized version of the Lightning Network. Everyone has at least one Pix key — often two or more — which can be linked to things like a document number, phone number, or even a randomly generated code. You can also change which bank is associated with each key at any time.
I believe the US isn’t too fond of Pix because it poses a threat to credit and debit card systems, which in Brazil are mostly dominated by American companies like Visa and Mastercard.
Eita, outro brasileiro. Muito obrigado @LibertasBR
In Brazil, we're taught cursive from a young age — it's the standard way we learn to write in school. 😶🌫️
