Does Lighting Netowork really scale and for what cost? [on hold]

Does Lighting Netowork really scale and for what cost? [on hold]

Ok I understand that inside LN we can send cheap transactions instantly, but assume we have global adoption, so BTC price is then very very high, it is obvious that happen due to full deflation nature of Bitcoin. So we need pay for create/close/deposit channel on-chain in BTC, with 1MB block size fees will be very high, several dozen or even several hundred $ per transaction, so to be worth do something we need send a lot of money to channel, or buy for cash from someone face2face/online that send as directly through LN. Next problem is that LN need use large HUBs to works most efficient, so owners of that HUBs probably will be exchange, financial institutes, just guys with a lot of money, is that not short way to KYC by this HUBs?

sendrawtransaction and txn-mempool-conflict

sendrawtransaction and txn-mempool-conflict When i sendrawtransaction to bitcoind, i get error (exceptions) 18: txn-mempool-conflict (use Bitcoin JSON-RPC denpamusic/php-bitcoinrpc ) But the transaction is sent to the network and is subsequently confirmed. Example one decoded transaction : https://jsfiddle.net/rn58a4j6/ then i send this transaction: 94ec12fc463230b4285a29b047608627c05572a4c6eabe6688a201ce49ae72f7 https://ift.tt/2MY2KP0

couldn't connect to server: EOF reached (code 1)

couldn't connect to server: EOF reached (code 1) I'm running a full node on my raspberry pi3. I try to do a simple command such as bitcoin-cli getblockchaininfo but I always get this error: error: couldn't connect to server: EOF reached (code 1) (make sure server is running and you are connecting to the correct RPC port) My bitcoin.conf file looks like this: Bitcoind options server=1 daemon=1 reindex-chainstate=1 reindex=1 txindex=1 disablewallet=1 listenonion=0 Connection settings rpcuser= * rpcpassword=* rpcport=8332 rpcallowip=127.0.0.1 rpcthreads=10 I also tried to get a command with "bitcoin-cli -rpcuser: * - rpcpassword=* -rpcportt8332 getblockchaininfo". But this also didn't work. Does someone has some advice or experience with this error? https://ift.tt/2D82TLW
