What I love about Pool is that it isn't about speculation, it's about meeting the actual needs of users. It was already happening in an ad hoc manner before we released it.

If you are running ANY version of the #RaspiBlitz you should upgrade to the latest LND version.
It is easy as pasting two lines of code into the command line to download, verify and install the latest v0.11.1-beta LND binary: github.com/openoms/lightning…

Interesting statistic:
Within' an hour of launching on-chain for @ln_strike, users spent more on on-chain fees in that hour than they did LN fees the entire existence of the app to date.
If you don't think Lightning is an important part of Bitcoin's future you're crazy.

People are sleeping on the Lightning Network. I have never been more bullish. The methodical, calculated build out is starting to take form. Improvements like Multi-Path Payments and Wumbo channels are enabling liquidity oceans. Financial apps are just the tip of this iceberg⚡️🚀
