Lightning is the way I show people Bitcoin for the first time. It's very exciting to see it keep growing!
I don't care much about stablecoins, but I'm definitely more interested in them if they are used with lightning. I am not interested in them at all using other chains.
Even though people seem critical of Dorsey with Cashapp, it seems he is a person that is really pushing for a future with bitcoin at the center. Between this announcement and his bitchat app, it's very exciting!
It's a shame it's not straight forward like steak and shake. I hope it's more positive than negative in lightning adoption, but it seems it won't be...
If want stability especially with a family, buy a house. If you want flexibility especially if single, rent. I've never personally had the desire to own a house.

I'm a fan of using aqua wallet in combination with the lightning function. Once there are enough sats, I will convert l-btc to btc. It also has privacy benefits compared to using btc on-chain. I feel better about keeping some btc in l-btc than keeping it on an exchange.
The idea of sending not only text but also Bitcoin without the internet is really exciting. I'm cheering for this decentralized tech!
I don't agree that term limits are absolutely necessary but it can definitely signal a rise of a dictator. I just hope they really have fair elections and that his poll ratings are accurate to reality.
