 RUNNING A LIGHTNING NODE IS A PAIN IN THE ASS AND THEY REFUSE TO DO CUSTODIAL.

JUST BUY MORE ROUNDS AND PAY ONCHAIN. 
 I HAVE PAID ON CHAIN BUT THAT MODEL WILL NOT LAST LONG

IF YOU CAN RUN A WEBSITE YOU CAN RUN A LIGHTNING NODE

I WILL VOLUNTEER MY TIME TO IMPOVE THE PAYMENTS EXPERIENCE OF BITCOIN BUSINESSES IF THATS WHAT IT TAKES

 AGREED. I TOLD HIM I WOULD WALK HIM THROUGH IT AS WELL. I ASSUME IT WILL TAKE FEES TO RISE MORE BEFORE HE TAKES ME UP ON IT. 
 GREAT NEWS. I LOOK FORWARD TO A BRIGHT SOVEREIGN FUTURE AND I’M GLAD COMPANIES LIKE THEIRS ARE PARTICIPATING. 
 appreciate you taking interest in their small business! maybe businesses will pool resources to build fedimints that can receive lightning payments for several of them at once and then occasionally drop to the respective business' cold storage on chain wallets? It will get there 👍🏻 
 RUNNING A BTCPAYSERVER ON WEBSITE WITH THE BLINK PLUGIN MIGHT BE A GOOD START TILL THEY MANAGE THEIR NODES. BUT IF THEY INSISTING ON AVOIDING CUSTODIAL, EVEN TEMPORARILY, THAT’S UNDERSTANDABLE.
