Haven’t been this discouraged ever in my bitcoin journey. Going to work on trying to get this node issue fixed again today but holy fuck this is frustrating.
Has anyone else experienced a corrupted peers.dat file on a weekly basis?
Obviously doing something wrong but having a hard time figuring it out..

Bitcoin node attempt 1 was an epic fail….
Wifi kept crashing. Shut down my node and wifi problem is gone.

Peers.dat file gets corrupted weekly.
Thinking it’s a hardware issue 🤷‍♂️

2023-03-28 22:22:30 UTC

Node is consistently not functioning due to a corrupted peers.dat file.
Managed to fixed via ssh the first few times but wasn’t able to ssh this last time.
Thinking my raspberry pi may be messed up from losing power too many times?
At the point where I’m considering buying new hardware and starting over from scratch 🤷‍♂️

The people of Iran are living under an authoritarian regime as well as visions US sanctions preventing families from sending money to and from each other.
Insane citizen tracking via bank accounts makes it extremely unsafe to move money in any way other than converting it to paper notes.
#bitcoin does not fix this.
And more plebs should be talking about that.
These are the people who need btc the most. And the regime has very effectively established roadblocks that make it extremely risky to send/receive sats.

Thanks. I’m still worried about the regime tracking funds in citizen accounts.
It is nearly impossible to convert the local currency to anything other than its cash form due to sanctions and regime restrictions.
It’s not a safe option to have any transaction in your bank history that would suggest transferring Iranian currency to usd / any sort of crypto exchange.
Will look more into bisq. Thank you for your response 🙏🏻

The issue here is transferring fiat out of the regimes fiat banking system.
The only truly private way is to take out cash and then convert that cash to btc.
Does bisq make this possible?
Was having a hard time finding that to be an option with robosats.

2023-03-15 06:52:01 UTC

Trying to think about how Bitcoin can be used as a tool for those living under Irans regime.
With incredibly deep tracking of all citizen bank accounts, and laws forbidding people from buying bitcoin, kyc on ramps are effectively shut down / death traps.
What is the solution to this?

Bitcoin Elasi has built a mini ramp at their center in Mossel Bay.
They need help securing funding for protective gear / skateboards for those who wish to utilize the center pierce of their new skatepark.
Here are some screenshots of their thread on Twitter, linked below in the replies for those who want to verify it themselves.
There’s a lot of gracious energy here on nostr. Let’s direct it to a great cause like Bitcoin Ekasi.

Depends on how much you value 21k sats.
I paid for an account 5 minutes ago and have already lold so I feel I’ve got my moneys worth.
Last time i paid for access but didn’t make an account and just reloaded that browser page for about a month before losing access to the feed.

2023-03-13 04:55:49 UTC

Paying for a nostr.build premium account for 21k sats and scrolling the feed of recently uploaded images/gigs is such great entertainment
