Rizful is designed both for short-term use by experienced Lightning operators, who might need a secondary node for testing or etc.... and also for classroom use, so a group of new users can all be onboarded to lightning in an understandable way.

A+

Just sent you some. Testnet is a mess right now, and it's really making life difficult for newer devs. Transaction Id. 00d92bd882d9954bc119526b8b454ebfd21ab4c66d13bc3d0be6ecccde791835

Taproot Assets is a data standard and a set of cryptography tools for assets and stablecoins, backed by the security of the Bitcoin network, and designed to be transacted over Lightning channels.

Unlike Ordinals or Runes, asset data is NOT stored on the Bitcoin blockchain. No new consensus or standardness rule changes are required to support Taproot Assets.

Taproot Asset creation transactions look like any other taproot UTXOs on the blockchain. They take up very little block space.

Taproot Assets will soon be transmitted over the Lightning Network. (About two weeks™ from now.)

Existing Lightning nodes will be able to forward Taproot asset transfers without upgrading their software.

Trading these assets over the Lightning Network will require the transmission BTC for purchases over the Lightning Network, which will increase the utility and transaction volume of the Network.

I would appreciate if you would review my strategy ( https://docs.megalithic.me/the-gentlemans-guide-to-routing-nodes/gentlemans-networking-stack ) ... and tell me what you think might be wrong or could be improved about it!

It's funny that you flagged this issue because spent many, many hours on this exact problem... the existing Wireguard + VPS solutions were too difficult. I came up with a solution using Docker... which is still pretty complicated... but at least does not require the user to run iptables commands directly on any machine....

Yes, actually, I have a very long and detailed guide on Wireguard + VPS, which is included in these docs! https://docs.megalithic.me/the-gentlemans-guide-to-routing-nodes/gentlemans-networking-stack

Thanks. Please ping me with any problems you see.

Thanks for reading, if you see any errors, please let me know.

I'm not super-enthusiastic about the term "shitcoin", I think it doesn't help N00bs understand the difference between Bitcoin and other coins. I have done a writeup here where I attempt to make the case in a way that I think normies might understand: https://docs.megalithic.me/bitcoin-basics/the-problem-with-altcoins

We've made some docs for the Lightning network.

I think that would be impossible to determine without somehow counting the number of entities or owners of all the "little" nodes -- which itself would likely be impossible.....

We're only trying to identify "entities" or "owners" of nodes who are making some attempt to publicly identify themselves. We're not trying to "out" node operators who are trying to stay anonymous.

thanks!

You can see the "ranking criteria" at the bottom of the page... which sort of explains the thinking... https://megalith.apezdev.com/power_list
