As of January 2024 there are approx. 18000 Bitcoin Nodes running. Is this enough? Anyone who owns Bitcoin should run a node. I use #start9 server. #sparrow wallet and #ledger to store my keys. We need to increase the nodes. #BITCOIN  #bitcoinlightning #lightning.

I wouldn’t use ledger. They’re closed source and support shitcoins. ColdCard or Passport will be a lot more secure solutions for your keys.

Thanks for the tip. I’ll look into it.

I started out with a ledger too. Feel much better using the ColdCard now.

We all start with Coinbase, we’ve all left funds on exchanges for a while, we all move to Ledger & we’ve all tried shitcoins at least once too.

It’s a learning process, a process that will eventually get us all to the correct destination - Education takes time & like most things, theory isn’t the same as practice.

Hey also I tried to zap you and got an “invalid Lightning address” error, just a heads up.

Thank you. I think I found the problem. Address has been updated.
