I'm a Bitcoiner and am tipping sats (1 sat = 0.00000001 BTC or $0.00049) left and right.

Here's 50 sats https://ln.cash/ogFZFxSbJCjuCDZQ3L2rR6

Thank you for the 50 sats! Some time ago I made some LN tx's to get the Blockstream stickers but have not used LN on mobile.

I scanned this with ios BlueWallet and now i have $0.02 sitting in my mobile wallet! Flawless. Go lightning network!!

Bouncing the 49 sats back to the next Lightning Network user (ln tx costs 1sat)! https://ln.cash/mEPAXiWRc6hwoSL8Vkojo4

In order to claim this, install BlueWallet and scan the QR code. The unfairly cheap transaction is almost instantaneous.

To clarify, that's ln.cash-es service fee. A 50 sat micro-transaction between two decently connected nodes would be completely free of charge.

There's plenty Zero Base Fee nodes (mine included) that make that possible: https://lnrouter.app/graph/zero-base-fee

Point taken! That's certainly cool to see.
Can I do this with eth?
That is so cool!
