travel the world and test all things related to bitcoin. run nodes (bitcoin / LN / mining) for entertainment. class of ‘11. very old and grumpy.

freedom is the only possible goal. truth is the method of reaching it. bitcoin is the vehicle.

I don’t even try to talk to normies about bitcoin unless they inquire. massmedia and shitcoins did a good job of painting it with dirt, so that people just ignore it alltogether.
very few wake up from this haze and ask questions, these ones we should help. it is really a lot like matrix. most are so deep in it they will fight to protect their slavery.

at this point I’ve lost hope, two attempts left. I was sure I remembered PIN on this trezor from years ago but alas.
now will need to recover seed from another country and restore. can’t imagine what I’d be going through if I didn’t have or had lost the seed. do check your trezors every now and then! because I suspect the pin code just changed, I 100% remember it and have used it dozens of time with it, but no combination in 14 tries worked. bummer. https://cdn.nostr.build/i/db17011e32f9dbce2b32ecf08404f0f5fcefc2fb6663bf89ee5ac20da001c3f2.jpg

One thing that has bothered me for a while. We, as bitcoiners, are a very diverse bunch, joined by one common goal. Yet we speak so many different languages it becomes a barrier. Most quality bitcoin content is in english, and as we could see over the years it makes it so easy for scammers and grifters to take over other, non-english speaking countries.
Should English really be the default bitcoin language? Or should we rely on local communities for more localizations and educational content.
I feel like early christian missionaries to “uncivilized world”, just saner. Maybe it is our mission to go to other nations, learn their culture and language, and spread the word of satoshi.

one thing I miss most is suggesting me notes which had been liked by people I follow.
that would add so much to content discovery and network widening! just make it obvious whos like the suggestion is based off and it will be spam-proof too.

deleted twitter today. elon went too far, my posts stopped even posting even when I don’t say “fuck” and “cunt”. they just got stuck in gray limbo for hours. but when I login I am greeted with 30 notifications from spam bots.
and I am sure threads would be exact same mess in a month.
fuck. this. shit. idk anymore if I lose signal from few remaining decent plebs there. I’m out.

TORQ 0.23.1 was just released, this version fully supports CLN (core lightning), helped test it on my nodes with cln 0.23.05. After initial import of forwarding history it starts and runs very quickly and provides amazing insights into your node and channels performance. Recommend. Did not try automations yet, supposed to be good, let me know if you run them.
Installation was also a breeze, you just need cln built with rust support and specify grpc-port startup param; app itself runs in a docker container.
Grab it here: https://github.com/lncapital/torq

Bitcoin dominance is a stupid metric (we all know it's actually 100%), but the bitcoin vs shitcoins market cap is highest it has been in two years, at 49.07. Still some ways to go to 70% of 2019, but we'll get there. If by any chance you still hold shitcoins, you still have a chance to get out while they are above 0 sats.

I don't think (other than FC channels to dead nodes) I had a single FC over the years which was actually warranted because of something fishy.

2023-05-12 09:41:45

that's a great idea. or add a "fuck it" protocol when two sides of the channel can't agree on a HTLC just drop it and pretend it never happened. instead of FC.

even if you could that makes no sense. you are entering a potentially compromised seed phrase into a secure device. what you should do instead, is generate a new secure seed, then sweep the software wallet seed in electrum, and move funds to the new secure seed.

that could make it self-conscious by introducing background and state, basically a storage portion of the brain.

2023-05-10 15:40:38

- reply

it performs nicely. not everyone needs or can run a node. we now have about 10,000 nodes which could be turned off today and the network would just be better off. only well-managed nodes make sense, others are a liability. running a node is not and probably never will be consumer tech; most people need it as a service, like phoenix, without knowing details of how it's being managed.

I saw the HODL meme 15 minutes after it was initialy typed on the bitcointalk forum and still I have no idea when it did transform into "you can not buy dollars with bitcoin, ever".
Sure you can. HODL means you don't actively trade, like selling hoping to get lower lows, that's all. Class of 2021 with 1% of their money in bitcoin for some reason started misrepresenting it as "never selling", but most people with 99% in know it's not even theoretically possible if you are not planning on a hungry death.

nah. they would "mint" copies of all of their shitcoinery world on bitcoin and then the fees would go down. couple days. the spike in fees just shows how high time preference shitcoiners are, they could have waited a week with their mint but then who would fleece all the dummies :)

I understand if it was a payment, but consolidation with such timing and urgency is super dumb. After years of 1s/vb fees come on...

2023-05-07 01:28:24

Who does dust consolidation at the worst possible mempool congestion and paying the next block fees to get 5% tx fee total?
No wonder roger complains about bitcoin fees. So dumb. Miners probably happy with 2BTC in fees in that block.

PS to @damus team - switching the current view is the single worst sin you can do. even if your app crashed every minute it would not be as annoying as randomly deciding to render something completely different without any user input. please never ever do that.

2023-03-01 02:38:37

any other ios clients besides damus out there? became pretty much unusable lately, as much as I want to like nostr, it just randomly jumps out of the thread I am reading into posts & replies with every new post coming in.

usually the slow whirlpool is considered more private, while the super-fast wasabi2.0 has blacklisted utxos and raises some suspicions (but it's just paranoia). none of them has been succesfully unmixed so far, other than the user error post-mix.

2023-02-19 02:37:52

- reply

they are all good, the problem is post-mix utxo management. don't lump several mixed utxos together, don't spend mixed coins with unmixed, don't move all of the utxos at the same time etc - basic sane practices.

2023-02-16 12:59:06

- reply

they would move over soon enough

2023-02-16 12:57:08

- reply

send the kyced utxo in its entirety through a mixer like wasabi (easiest) or whirlpool (slower) or joinmarket (harder) and into several new utxo addresses in your hw wallet. spend utxo's separately always, this just helps in case you mess up (join utxos in one transaction) later.
