So up freaks, it's your boy Marty here to introduce this episode of Tales from the Crypt.

I had the immense pleasure of sitting down with Alex Bosworth, head of infrastructure at Lightning Labs.

Somebody who's been working on the Lightning Network and teaching individuals how to successfully run a routing node on the Lightning Network for some time now.

This episode, frankly, is a long time coming.

I can't believe it took me this long into TFTC's life to get Alex on the podcast,

but I'm very happy I did.

Shout out to Desiree Dickerson for putting this together.

We had a great conversation covering everything, lightning, what's going on, what needs to be done, and how the network has grown to date and may grow moving forward.

This episode of Tales from the Crypt is brought to you by our good friends at the Casp.

I'll help you do many things, including stack sats.

You can send sats, receive sats, and sell sats if you have to.

What I'm really liking is that they've made sats to standard, really helping eliminate

that unit bias out there.

We're buying millions of sats at a time, tens of thousands of sets at a time,

hundreds of thousands of stats at a time. Makes it seem like you're getting more bang for

your buck. On top of that, they have cash up investing. If you want to stack slivers

of stonks, a lot of people are stacking slivers of stonks

right now. Stank market is going absolutely crazy. I don't know what the hell is going on.

But if you want to get in on that stock stock market insanity, cash app investing is letting

you do that. And if your favorite stonk is a little too expensive in this recent runup,

don't worry, you can buy as little as

$1 of your favorite stunk, okay?
