You can include the Liquidity Providers on Magma as well and see their pricing for more decentralized offers.

It would be valuable to include a network centrality measure so you can compare connectivity with price.

Exactly right. It's an extremely conservative simulation!

As lightning becomes more capitalized and distributed, this metric will move higher.

Thanks for the attribution! It's humbling to build in public and you've shown incredible strength to build Stacker News in public.

Someone stealing your idea is less of a problem that you'd think! Worrying about this type of theft is a reflection of insecurity about being the right person to build your vision in the first place. If someone else had the vision, they'd already be building it. Instead, YOU are a unique blend of skills, experiences, and connections to have a vision of a future and the drive to execute on it.

Bringing a new operator metric to lightning.

Massive congrats on getting this launched! It's no small feat to not only build it and launch it, but also to put your baby in front of other peoples' critical eyes!

To create the smooth experience you describe of sending a receiving zapa, you'd need to introduce additional parties into the equation to handle offline situations etc or act as custodians. These are extensions to the base protocol, but make tradeoffs that not everyone is comfortable with.

A date is just a scheduled conversation with a defined time, location, and intention.

If you can have a fun conversation with them, that may be just as good. If you can learn to flirt, even better. If that was so much fun you want to do it again, schedule the time and place.
