1. Getting Satoshi

What is Satoshi? The term Satoshi (short form sats) is the smallest unit of Bitcoin denomination. If we are to picture it in terms of Fiat currencies, sats to Bitcoin is likened to a cent to a dollar. The unit was named after the pseudonymous person or persons who developed bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto.

According to the measurement, one sat is one hundred millionths of one Bitcoin (or 0.00000001 BTC). Since many Bitcoin transactions include small a fraction of one Bitcoin, sats are a very useful unit of measurement.

2. Running a Lightning Node

According to this article on Cointelegraph, a Bitcoin lightning node is “a software that connects to the blockchain network and exchanges the most up-to-date blockchain data.” Recently, there has been a lot of hype and buzz around the Bitcoin lightning network.

Using this node improves transaction throughput, and it makes it easier so that users would not have to wait long for block confirmations.

Both Bitcoin and lightning nodes can be run separately, however, it is better to have them both if you have thoughts about engaging with the Lightning Network.

Routing Fees: Anyone with a computer or a dedicated device like Raspberry Pi can run a lightning network node. Users can earn satoshi as a fee for forwarding Bitcoin transactions. Apart from the fee earned, other benefits come with running a lightning node, like contributing to the community and helping build toward the lightning network’s future.

3. Earn Satoshi by Playing Games

Some play-to-earn games have been built on blockchain, facilitated by the lightning network. The fact that lightning network transactions are almost free and very fast, they are a very good match for in-game transactions.

One of the popular game development companies that use the lightning network to make in-game transactions is THNDR Games which has games like Turbo 84, Bitcoin Bounce, and THNDR Bay.

Another platform where players can play games and earn Bitcoin is the Satoshi Games.

Conclusion:

The bear market is a period of doubt when many investors are reluctant and skeptical about investing their money in digital assets. If you are one of those who want to accumulate Bitcoin in the bear market, then getting satoshi, running a lightning node, and playing games to earn satoshi are very good ways to do this.
