Very important look at how Bitcoin is a lifeline for those living in Iran.

Random question but was anyone else into Latyrx back in the day?

Lady Don’t Tek No popped into my head randomly so I searched it on YouTube and had never seen this music video so I thought I’d share and ask.

Anyway, hope you’re having a great Saturday 🤙 #tunestr

In this build:

- 20% discount for all LSP services for ZEUS Pay+ subscribers

- ZEUS Pay+ price drop to 80k sats/year

- fix: issue with setting channel fee rates

- fix: edge case for triggering swaps refund when invoice cannot be paid

v0.11.0 highlights:

- Experimental Cashu ecash wallet

- Swaps: LN -> on-chain, and vice versa

- ZEUS Pay: Cashu and NWC lightning addresses (for remote nodes)

- Import and export wallet configs

- UTXO labeling

- Activity: filter for keysends

Notes:

- Cashu wallets are tied to Embedded LND wallets. Enable under Settings > Ecash

- Other wallet types can still sweep funds from Cashu tokens

- ZEUS Pay now supports Cashu address types. You can switch between Zaplocker, Cashu, and NWC mode but can only use one at a time.

Android:

The best relay set is contextual to the navigation stack. And within those relay list options there are different priorities (current outbox/inbox relays first, if we can't find it, look for the event in older outbox relays for that user). The more the user looks back in time the more we need to check older versions of each user's list. 🤯

Exactly.

When I say “nothing stops this train” it is not out of cynicism. It is about sending a signal on where *not* to direct energy because that energy won’t amount to much.

In other places, it will.
