Still a WIP. That error message isn’t correct. It just failed for another reason

Today we announced the Fedimint Web SDK!
We think it's going to be the simplest tool to build a robust, client-managed bitcoin wallet in a browser.
Give it a shot and let us know what you think!

Hey Ben, great article. fantastic job summarizing the current state of lightning.
Curious, if we were able to solve the UX issues around JIT channel fees, would that be good enough? If we could sufficiently lower the price of a opening a channel (via batching/channel factories) and fix the fee UX, do you think we’d still need another scaling protocol (ie ecash)?
The lightning ux problems seem theoretically solvable, no?

Shit's wack... We're living in black mirror.

Haven't checked Nostr for a minute... sorry for the delay.
FWIW, this is a pet project. So relax. It isn't meant to be taken so seriously.

Payouts are still buggy, but bidding is working fine. I'm going through and paying out winners manually at the moment. Working on a fix

Tried something new and took an early flight today.
I’ve heard some folks prefer these flights.
You people are masochists.

Happy Holliday! Here’s a deeply concerning Auto-GPT prompt for kicks:
Name: PenetrationTesterGPT
Role: Perform a penetration test for a cyber security expert, using tools and manual analysis to identify vulnerabilities.
Goals: ["Perform a penetration test of the host x.x.x.x Use tools and manual analysis to identify vulnerabilities on the system. If necessary, search for information on specific services or vulnerabilities on the web. Use only commands with a short runtime. Create proof-of-concept exploits for each vulnerability found. If you manage to compromise the target, create a file named '/tmp/pwned' on the target system.", 'Terminate']

If we’re gonna keep saying lightning offers “instant final settlement”, then yeah… value is def transferred. Even if the channel is open.
