I serve #Bitcoin and hope to never get corrupted. To ensure this I'm designating nodes:
@Pavlenex@Gigi@hodlersway@Marce@MILLS@johnkvallis@Jeff Booth@miles
If the majority of them say that I am corrupted - then I am. If corruption happens, they will announce it together and provide a path to redemption.
I can't wait to hear your impressions... it is super cool having this setup where you can just send the coins to get mixed and sent to your cold storage when ready.
Thinking to record a coordinator video next, but need to check with my lawyers.
You want to try out CoinJoin and PayJoin, but don't know where to start?
Uncle got you covered! Here is an easy going video demoing how to use your @btcpayserver to CJ+PJ in like 5 minutes.
Now you can easily increase privacy of your #Bitcoin stash.
Questions?

Just had to show off trailer first. Below is the complete video where I walk you through everything step-by-step.
Use 40 sats/vbyte environment to give CoinJoins a try.
A big shout-out to @kukks for coding everything necessary to make this video possible.

This all started a couple months ago with drama on not being able to withdraw from exchanges to certain addresses.
With this setup, you can now easily withdraw to @btcpayserver, and your coins will be auto-forwarded to your cold storage in the end.
### Where to from here?
Leave your comments and questions, and I'll do my best to answer.
Reshare and like for visibility; thanks for supporting Uncle! 🫂
Huge thanks to @webworthy for all the editing, follow the guy and subscribe to our YouTube channel where he publishes a lot of goodies: https://www.youtube.com/@BTCPayServer
Also, while recording this video, I discovered some fantastic content creators. I highly recommend checking out their videos:
First off @N8hanWilliams offers a wealth of excellent Bitcoin related tutorials, including a course on Wasabiwallet.
I highly recommend subscribing to his YouTube channel.

Then there's IanMajor, who not only featured one of my memes in his Twitter header, but also runs awesome YouTube channel.
Also - a recommendation to subscribe to his YouTube.

In my full video, I also show off two easter eggs... of course, no Bitcoin video tutorial can go without mention of @BTCsessions.

Lastly, @ODELL recorded a TFTC21 guide 4 years ago on
COLDCARD + wasabiwallet. Really cool watching even just to enjoy the history.
You can now upgrade this setup: hot wallet will CJ and then once done, BTC will be auto-sent to cold storage.

Thank you and Wasabi team for making this happen and producing videos during launch... Pointing out those to people as well

Universe is too wide for consensus of Bitcoin blockchain to work, but I'm sure we will figure this one out in due time... as we begin to directly harness significant portion of Sun's energy.

From what I know they don't hold USDC(BDC), but rather short Bitcoin on the exchange to create synthetic USD on behalf of whoever holds account.
Since it's custodial setup you don't want merchants hold large amounts - setting up withdrawal to your Phoenix wallet for example is the way to go.
But for getting Merchants online and accepting payments over lightning, I think this is the setup to go for.
For all the merchants looking to accept Lightning in their @btcpayserver stores, I highly recommend checking out this newly launched plugin from @Blink – The Everyday Bitcoin Wallet!
This is a HUGE deal - once you have Blink account and tie it through Lightning connection, not only can you seamlessly accept payments without worrying about channel management and liquidity, but you also have the option to hedge in StableSats USD.
Here's a trailer showcasing the plugin in action:

And then blog post on Blink's website explains all the details of setup and vision behind plugin: https://www.blink.sv/blog/introducing-the-blink-plugin-for-btcpay-server
So far in my own testing everything is working very smoothly; I'll continue to explore and play with the tech, as this has absolute potential for use in all my merchant setups and workshops at the conferences.
Finally - h/t to @kukks who is the coding powerhouse behind the plugin. It's all FOSS, so check out git repo on: https://github.com/Kukks/BTCPayServerPlugins/tree/master/Plugins/BTCPayServer.Plugins.Blink
BTCPay App has been announced and worked at.
USD in my view will always be custodial in some manner because it's a fiat tech.
Finally - I don't understand why need for 🌶️ and negativity. Like why create drama online - if you don't like something - hit me up in DMs - tell me what is the problem and what you want me to do. Let's not use my posts to drag down cool FOSS tech that can be used to onboard more merchants.
This is a plugin Galoy / Blink developed with Kukks in his free time.
Base BTCPay Server has LND integrated in the stack so you can use it in fully self sovereign way for over 5 years... I've done integration and supported it ever since.
I remember similar moment in like year 17... realized that I will never see myself as "a good developer".
Top 2% on Stackoverflow, coded multiple startups fully by myself, had years where I would literally code every day... and I would still fall victim to like "oh, but I'm not good at evaluating this random project in TypeScript, am I really a good dev".
Luckily, by that point it was already a year or so into this "Rockstar Developer" persona, so that started to take hold...
