I don’t come to the #Nostr expecting anything, but if you wouldn’t mind boosting this note I’d appreciate it. 🙏

I’m one of the founders of nostr:npub1hxfkcs9gvtm49702rmwn2aeuvhkd2w6f0svm4sl84g8glhzx5u9srk5p6t, a community of noderunners on the Nostr, currently with over 340 member nodes and an active Telegram group, where we help new and experienced users connect, share knowledge, and expand the Lightning network together.

I started my journey into running a bitcoin and Lightning node in early 2021, when I was one of the first 100 members of Plebnet.

Built on a Raspberry Pi4 with 8 GB of ram, my current node, Dan on the Moon now runs 60 channels with a total capacity of nearly 175 million sats.

In early January, 2023, soon after joining the Nostr, I realized there was no organized group of noderunners, so I decided to start one along with a few other people. Within 3 months, we had reached 200 members, and are on track to double that by our one year anniversary.

Due to the current high-fee environment, my node hardware is struggling under the load. With no way to expand memory and disk space in the current configuration, it's due for an upgrade.

Because it runs Umbrel, I've decided the path of least resistance will be to purchase an Umbrel Home, which sells for $500 US, and ships with a migration assistant to seamlessly move all of the existing node data and channels.

In the future, I plan to also build a second node on custom-built components, but the current need is to keep this node stable and not end up in a situation where any of my channels get force-closed.

If I am able to raise the funds through Geyser, the node will be renamed "The Nodestrich" and will provide more stability for my channel peers, who have been some of the most supportive and helpful people I have met since I started my journey.

Thank you! 💜⚡🫂

Pro/Con of Nostr Clients

Iris.to
Pro: Everyone has a web browser, so it’s easy for beginners to on-board.   Simple easy layout.
Con:  They use CloudFlare, so do NOT let the website see your private key.  You need to use the Flamingo browser extension to sign events because CloudFlare strips away httpS encryption.  Without a browser extension, it should be treated like you’re handing your private key to the US government.  You can’t view DMs using a browser extension only.  Also CloudFlare will browser fingerprint you and block Tor.

Primal.net
Pro: Fast for Tor.  I recommend this only for Tor browser.  The reason it’s fast is because you’re not getting the content from each individual relay, but it’s aggregated to their database.
Con: Primal’s model is closer to traditional social media, where they can censor content.  Beyond using this for speed on Tor, it’s dangerous centralization.

Amethyst
Pro: FOSS Android client in the F-Droid store that works on degoogled phones.  Not only is the interface just like Twitter, but they added in “sealed sender” style DMs, similar to Signal to hide metadata.
Con: Be aware that if you’re not using a degoogled phone, then the government and Google can probably get your private key.  And for the high risk “tinfoil hat” paranoid, you can’t control the Baseband modem of ANY mobile device which hackers can remotely compromise.  But for the average memer, private keys on mobile is fine.

Gossip
Pro:  This is what I’d use for famous or controversial influences with a high threat model.  Desktop Linux is supported, and it’s programmed in Rust which could potentially add security against memory corruption for poorly vetted third party images downloaded off relays.  Password lock on posting is good.
Con: No sealed sender DMs yet.  Hard to use.
Tip: You want to first try Amethyst, then graduate to Gossip when you understand that you have to enter a relay where someone posts to find them.  (hint: lookup their relays quickly on Tor via primal.net.)

Lume
Pro: Lots of features such as mapping relationships, good widgets for hashtags and topics.  Password lock is good.
Con: There’s still Linux bugs.  I can’t recommend it for Linux, as I had issues.  However, the developer has significantly improved Linux builds from just a few months ago, but it’s not there yet.

Damus
Pro: iPhone Client for less tech-savvy users
Con: Apple (and therefore the government) can probably get that private key, but again for the average person it’s ok.

If it ever comes, the day that the US government goes to the mattresses on bitcoin, I will dedicate that day, that week, that month, and that year, to memes to help support the social counter-attack.

Their confiscations will have to fight amid the shade of our endless memes and civil disobedience.

ZEUS will never block payment to our competitors’ wallets, disparage or belittle anyone trying push Bitcoin adoption forward, or give up on trying to ship self custodial solutions.

We will, however, continue to push the limits of what is possible on Lightning in order to provide an amazing payments experience, in a self custodial manner, for as many people as possible.

The app store release of ZEUS v0.8.0, featuring our embedded node(“the node is in the phone”), OLYMPUS LSP, self custodial Lightning addresses, and rebrand, drops in December. Much more will follow in 2024.

We’re grateful to everyone who’s come along for the ride with us and we’re excited to help onboard the next wave of Bitcoiners.

Bitcoin only took off once you could buy it on an exchange which connected to the fiat system. Just like mining took off when you could buy a rig instead building your own hardware. Or how linux and open source got much better when you could let someone else compile the code for you.

This doesn’t mean you can build everything from scratch. Just if we want non-technical users we need to make it possible to use without technical knowledge.

New #bitcoin video out!

I spent 20 days investigating how messed up money in Cape Verde is 🇨🇻

Turns out it’s very similar to other small island developing nations.

Problems with physical money, remittances, change at the tills, visa/Mastercard, inflation: no sovereignty.

#bitcoin fixes a lot of this.

Notes on the Bitkey:
- Easiest setup experience of any wallet I've used
- Hardware feels really solid, nice build quality
- 2/3 multisig with no seed phrase
- Mobile app and server key can authorise small transactions (dollar amount is user configurable)
- Mobile app and hardware device is required to authorise larger transactions
- Email is required during setup to facilitate recovery if mobile phone / hardware device is lost
- Phone number is optional (from memory)
- Can integrate Cash App / Coinbase for direct purchases to the wallet
- Block can see your transaction data

The app / hardware device is still in beta, however the simplicity of the setup process is near perfect.
While most of us will still prefer a Coldcard, Passport or Jade, those devices aren't for everyone.

I suspect Block will advertise via Cash App and sell a ridiculous amount of these devices, which is great for self-custody but comes at the expense of privacy.

Most importantly, this is not a wallet for your KYC-free corn.

testing #zeus v-0-8-0-beta1 with embedded self-custodial node and it's awesome, but fees are certainly high for the convenience. seems it would be expensive to use it as a main address on nostr since many (if not most) zaps are <200. here is a breakdown of the fees & a good writeup from #stackernews 👀

Does conscious breathing help or nah?

If you’re curious about it or haven’t tried it, there is a technique that has helped me with anxiety a lot. It’s a very simple technique in yoga practice that is shockingly powerful, called “calming breathing” by my teacher. It is done thusly:

sit comfortably still

inhale for four intervals
hold for two intervals
exhale for four intervals

Repeat for as long as it is comfortable.

I did this for an entire jury duty selection process once, was one of the best days of my life!

Intervals can be a mantra, or a count, a beat, or whatever is calming in itself. I use the OM.

Influencer culture has taught a generation of a children that the ultimate sign of success is social media engagement. Engagement at all cost.

Pretty fucking sad. Do not think nostr fixes this.

Walking around saying “bitcoin, not crypto” is a bit like saying “squares, not rectangles.”

It might make you feel good, but the uninitiated have no idea what you mean. Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency.


Bitcoin Miami is dead. Long live Bitcoin Miami.

Ladies and gentlemen, it is time for a send-off. Let us mourn the loss of innocence or the lack thereof.

I think assuming bitcoin has already won, hyperbitcoinization is inevitable, and it's only a waiting game until it happens, is borderline religious fanaticism, if I'm being honest. There's hard work ahead. That's going to be apparent in the coming months and years.

Stay Classy Nostr


Bitcoin enables all of us to focus on our lives - our friends and family - doing what we love with the short time we have on this earth. Time is scarce. Life is complicated. Bitcoin is the most simple aspect of our complicated lives.

Yesterday was Mother's Day. Growing and raising a human is complicated. It is hard, it requires immense personal responsibility, it requires critical thinking, but mothers figure it out, because it is worth it. Using and saving bitcoin is simple -  simply install an app on your phone. Every mother can do it. Every person can do it.

full time nostr now?


Here for the snow content💜

Normies are still on Facebook, pretty sure this is bit-nostr 😊


are we still early 🤙🏽


*Only posting this as a last ditch effort
🫂💜

Unfortunately i just received an email from our new landlord that bought our apartment. They are raising rent making it so we can't afford it.
We now have 3 days to sign a lease that we cant actually afford or 33 days to find a new place to live in this fucked up market or my family of 3( @lexi @lilmanbtc and myself) could become homeless as we don't have parents, grandparents, friends, etc who could possibly help us out with a place to crash while we figure this out.

I'm about to be forced to sell the few million sats I do have and literally be bitcoinless and homeless, as selling my stack would just delay it, not prevent it.

If we can zap for memes, genuine content, ideas, and even zap someone to a concert...

Maybe I can get help with a place to live? 🥺

It's kinda urgent and I honestly feel scummy for even asking yall amazing people...

50,000,000 sats buys an average condition trailer outright so I'm not sleeping outside in a tent raising a 2yr old with my g/f this spring - fall...
Anything helps in this trying time.

Love you all.

Fiatjaf has a real skill of cutting through noise and simplifying. Can see it in all his work.


Bitcoin is good for my country because our government print too much money. So we can escape the inflation.  We can send and receive the money faster with almost zero cost. And every individual owns their key its absolutely amazing.

English is not my native language apologies.  #[0]


I live in a Latin American country with a depressed economy where the minimum wage and old-age pension is equivalent to about 8 dollars and the currency continues to devalue, in addition to one of the highest and longest-lasting inflation rates in the world, but here, as in any country from the third world with disastrous economies, 100k satoshis, which is equivalent to 16 dollars, are enough to buy 1 kilo of beef and a kilo of rice, enough for a small family to eat for a week, but that's here, I don't know in other countries. #[3]
