imho that's a lot of wasted miner fees for way too many on-chain transactions...

it does not pay to be good in the short term i guess; i have not thought thru the game dynamics very far on this strategy. i think ultimately the game is being is played on multiple levels, and we have to let it run its course.

i would have made a mint with private Cashu payouts, with initial mining distribution into a few LN nodes.
