Summary

Dave's definition of success for value for value: a year out, around 200 podcasters running their own Lightning nodes. That's a fully funded payment network for podcasting that chat relays, media distribution and even feeds could build on. At that critical mass, hosts need to bring their easy authoring tools to the decentralized side.
