I'm such a boring retard. Please give me attention so I feel important

Coming back from holidays I see nothing changed around here.
Bearish then  

I currently run a "popular" LND node that I have personally funded with x BTC across numerous channels. I was thinking of adding additional funds to my node, and establishing some higher-funded channels, in addition to what I've already established.

Start screwing around with channel policies and routing fees, and other extremely esoteric lightning related crapolla.

Balancing channels is extremely unpleasant at present. Trying to gain a better understanding of it, and it's becoming clear to me there is not a simple way to handle it, given the current UX/UI.

The closest natural analog I can make to managing a busy LND node is dumping our your channel info, and manually start going through each channel - one-by-one - adjusting the policies, as if I was going through tending my garden for weeds, and plucking weaker plant shoots.

Very tedious.

But Thai food is cheap. I want to put a big smoker in the big spar.

i tried to register but got an error.

EDIT: nevermind tried again and got in.

for me, one aspect of a seastead is the isolation from supplies. living in the boonies i tend to have everything needed to survive for several weeks with absolutely no dependencies on the outside world. well within some practical limits. so i would have backups (sometimes several) of all critical infrastructure, tools and parts to repair most things along with a small machine shop, above average medical supplies, and overkill on monitoring equipment for environment and systems status. like, lots of stuff like that. i live in the boonies, and ive learned that if you dont have it with you, you dont have it period. simple enough thing but when the stores are a dozen miles or more away in rough seas for unknown period of time thats the same thing. so any seastead i design will be pretty big. living quarters would be a small part of it. command and control will be as redundant and as state of the art as i can make it, after all, when you get down to it this is a sea going vessel that my life will depend on. so costly for the specs that i am comfortable with, which are admittedly above specs a typical seasteader may have.

dont get me wrong, the isolation and self sufficiency is a good thing for me, but a lot of planning goes into that. its not just the base platform which worries me, you guys seems to have those problems licked. its the rest of it that i worry about. ive learned to only trust critical infrastructure that either i design and build, or is so well proven i can adapt off the shelf items for my use. i have no intention of getting into some life threaten situation that i could have avoided because i skimped on kit loadout.

Are you in international waters or are you under a certain nations laws? How do you bank and when not using crypto what currency are you using? I am guessing that hotspot has a bill paid somehow.

Feel the need to drop the beatz..blow it up.

We have 3 mooring balls. One on each anchor line.

Any mooring balls available? Might have to swing over and check it out once your settled.

Isn't coinbase blacklisting coins?

How do you know they haven’t been accumulating for months?

Like a margin call.
Leverage out the yin-yang and then, the gods of the market lower the boom on your sorry ass.
Bye-bye, birdie!

No it isn’t

I would probably choose a not so far date (ie less than a year ahead) so I could go all in into longing/shorting. As majormax says, in the interim of long term many things can happen.

Next halving is in 2022, so expect a poor 2019 (but not as horrible as 2018), a somewhat good 2020, a great 2021 and an awesome 2022.

Halving means natural price increase, communication, easy FOMO and growth.

So, hands firm, don't shake and hold your breath for a bit. Better times ahead

PS. What are you talking about funding your LND note?

Guys.

I hate to admit this.

I'm starting to get the fear.

Looking into my crystal ball, I see 2019 filled with nothing but continued languid misery.

I'm thinking of just tuning out for all of 2019 and devote it entirely to personal projects. (Continue to run my LND note, tho. Might just fund it some more...)

2018 really took a lot of wind out of my sails. Absolutely exhausting.  

Wish I could just put myself into a medically induced coma until some-time mid-2021.

If they would want to do this they would buy first and leak after. Putin is not retarded. Journalism these days ...
