How Do We Pay While Your Normal Cell Phone Number?
There's various ways to do it. Verizon and AT&T do have extra services you can pay to enable some sort of spam blocking. How do we pay while your normal cell phone number but let your doctors' office calls come true? Only pay while the stammers. But ultimately, they're not going to be able to call you unless they opt in by shunning a balance somewhere.

They talk about the intersection of the Bitcoin Lightning Network and how it offers a solution to the worsening spam and bots that litter our social media and phone calls.
