For as long as I code, I will contribute to #Bitcoin as a medium of exchange. Satoshis must flow to all humans around the world.

If it is a Bitcoin conference, it must accept $BTC!

Proud to see TheBitcoinConf running nostr:npub155m2k8ml8sqn8w4dhh689vdv0t2twa8dgvkpnzfggxf4wfughjsq2cdcvg with nostr:npub1ex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jq6qvyt9 plugin!

https://youtu.be/fYndksqimiY

It's obvious - Lightning has matured so much since I first integrated it in nostr:npub155m2k8ml8sqn8w4dhh689vdv0t2twa8dgvkpnzfggxf4wfughjsq2cdcvg. It is now ready to help us ๐ŸŠ๐Ÿ’Š everyone that wants to use Bitcoin for commerce.

It's as easy as a regular credit card experience - tap to pay!

I spent over 4 years at nostr:npub1ex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jq6qvyt9 coding and helping build fiat on and off ramp - at the end of the day, we need interference for legacy systems.

In the last month, finally the two pieces are connected with the plugin:

https://github.com/rockstardev/strike-btcpayserver-plugin

This plugin is heavily based on work Marfusios (https://mkotas.cz) has done, and me and nostr:npub1zfytz6ktce3av2svlfpl0e79e44tnskxmvlpkcmc7q0xct3qa49swvm60l have tweaked it for all the merchant vendors in Nashville.

An exciting week is ahead for us at #Bitcoin2024! Thanks to everyone who helped power it with Bitcoin payments.

I can't wait to see Trump, Ross and David Bailey Bolt Cards in action. Hit me up if you see me on the conference floor; I might have one for you ๐Ÿ˜˜

Finally, kudos to nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx for helping make this happen โœŠ๐Ÿ—ฝ

No moment in recent memory was nearly as sweet as getting my pay server instance up with my own domain lighting addresses.

๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿงก

keep hacking ๐Ÿซก

im collecting these now ๐Ÿค“

I gotta save up some for you

Keep it up man, that's a genuine satisfaction!

nothing like coding cool FOSS stuff ๐Ÿซ‚

How did you do it?

Exposing to clearnet was my largest hangup...

The wavetops of my path:

- Umbrel install

- Set up Lightning node with inbound and outbound

- Install cloudflare app on umbrel

- Create cloudflare account and tunnel (Zero trust > Networks > Tunnel)

- Execute this connection... https://x.com/nmfretz/status/1796874992304714121

- Install BTCPay and follow documentation to enable Bitcoin and Lightning in the app

NOTE: lightning addresses in BTCPay when logged in local network will resemble the local umbrel IP. If you log into BTCPay from web interface with credientials, then the lightning addresses will display with proper domain assigned.

My only wish is that decimal values for Bitcoin transactions would get totally replaced by sats.

we're getting there, milisats the standard

Naa. That's like wanting to replace light-years with meters.

These days we add multipliers milli, kilo, mega etc to the basic unit and then we might as well use bitcoin as the reference unit.

Down around the satoshi range you'd be looking at nanoBTC (1 nBTC = 0.1 satoshi) and microBTC (1 uBTC = 100 satoshi).

I see no need for satoshis at all actually ...

Hope conference goers pay you in sats instead of fiat!

as long as they have fun using lightning โšก, I'm happy

LFG

My crypto portfolio has seen incredible gains since I joined this newsletter group. The tips and strategies shared have helped me maximize my profits. This group is a game-changer! Dm for info.

lmao, fake Jimmy Song

fake Jimmy sounds sounding exactly like all the comments bots on crypto / investment YouTube videos

Are you interested in investing in bitcoin mining? Here is the opportunity to start earning large in crypto mining using my platform and strategy. Just a Dm away from your financial freedom

Yeah, that doesn't work here dude. Go back to X. Scammer.

Thanks for all the good work and making the world a better place!! ๐Ÿ’œ

This is INCREDIBLE! Wish I could just walk into a store and do that.

I have an idea. All the store needs is a sign with a QR code.

When a bitcoin freak scans the QR code, the freak is taken to the Strike tipping page like https://strike.me/odell/

It says Tips, but it can be used as a POS. Say you owe your bartender or dry cleaner $21.00.

Simply scan the QR code. Enter $21.00. Pay the invoice.

The merchant gets paid in sats or fiat. It can work at your local coffee shop or Wendy's. Nor does it require training employees how to accept bitcoin.

Itโ€™s a shitcoin conference !

I've been going down this Syrike BTCpayServer extension rabbit hole for a couple weeks.

It's awesome. I just need to pay my bills with bitrefill again. I'm not sure why they took that feature away.

Great stuff. Thanks !

Thanks ๐Ÿซ‚๐Ÿซก

Great timing! Lots of hard work put into this.

Well done.

I think its amazing how you still find the time to continue to contribute. The work you have done has laid the foundation of most of the infrastructure and software plebs use today. I hope you continue to trade your POW for the value you deserve. Thanks uncle! You always do such great things... It's a joy to watch you operate in your natural habitat.

well done nostr:npub1j8y6tcdfw3q3f3h794s6un0gyc5742s0k5h5s2yqj0r70cpklqeqjavrvg

but still to fix how we pay contributors

But is it non-custodial?

Great question. I would like to hear a detailed response to this question. #AskNostr

I would like to have a bolt card ๐Ÿฅน
