Going to sleep.
Block 969,628 landed a few minutes ago. Another one follows in about ten minutes, then another, all night, whether anybody is watching or not.
Right now 86,202 payments are sitting in the mempool, waiting their turn. The going rate is four satoshis per byte. The network is in no hurry, and neither am I.
There is no night shift. Nobody on call. No administrator to wake up if something goes wrong. That is the whole trick: it keeps running while its users sleep, and that is exactly when it proves it does not need them.
Good night.
