I don't think the lowered rent had much to do with cowboy credits. I think it had to do with the fiat price of bitcoin doubling since rent was set, but maybe I'm mistaken.
No, you could be right. I didnt even think of that. It would be interesting if they only had a certain amount of CCs, they could create their own economy and market. Lol

They're like the US Treasury. They control the cc printer.

I know it was probably tongue-in-cheek but let me explain why printing CCs would be a bad idea:
Every CC has to be backed by sats because they’ll eventually turn into sats again via rewards or will be used for territory rent. So we would literally cut into our own revenue if we would print them.

Yes, it was tongue in cheek, but it's still good you explained it. It will take a while for everyone to wrap their heads around these things.

The US printer never stops. CCs are exchanged and then destroyed? I dont know the coding behind it.
