My current #Bitcoin #Lightning #Node setup enables an entirely new connection to the Internet of #Value.

- Grateful to the original #cypherpunks and public key #cryptography.

- The developers of the #hardware and #software for:

- Bitcoin #core node implementations.

- Lightning Network with its nodes and #channels.

- Self-custody LN #wallets such as npub1mutnyacc9uc4t5mmxvpprwsauj5p2qxq95v4a9j0jxl8wnkfvuyque23vg and npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5 .

- And now Nostr protocol - with its relays and clients such as Damus, Primal and npub1nz64zngcqm8vj8nhrdkcjpfwn2rcaqysnxec88tqfclp5afrpglsqm0w5y - whose relay settings are the most sophisticated I have seen in a Nostr client.

Raspberry Pi 4B, Umbrel OS 1.04.

Even my Crucial MX500 SSD deserves praise for handling the bitcoin blockchain download.

I am using all this to share the LN value foundations with those who care and may have a need.

During mid march of 2024, my #bitcoin #blockchain #download showed that 25% of it was created in the last 2 years, 5% in the last 4 months. Inscriptions? Ordinals? There is the entire Doom in there apparently.

At this time, one night offline is synched in 5 minutes the next day using a fast normal cable connection.
