I’ve got 500k sats on my BTC wallet…how do I fun the lightning node though?
I guess what I am confused by is the opening of channels to whom? Or where? Umbrel says, fund your lighting node and open a channel, but I can’t send funds from WoS or BTC node on Umbrel to my lightning node…as much as I understand about Bitcoin and all the technicals an dhow it works…Lightning is NOT near as straightforward. I guess I am just missing one piece of the puzzle that will make it all make sense or something.
I bet its cause I’m sipping this Mitchers Bourbon instead… What was I thinking?
Umbrel/Lightning Node -> ThunderHub (but was trying to open to Amboss and a Swap)
Ahh shit….not my night…I give up today. Try again tomorrow
Trying this again because…well life is hard....
It’s just what we do!
Alright….I need some help. I haven’t had enough Scotch for this and I am losing it!
I am trying for the dear love of Satoshi to open some Lightning channels, but you can’t open one without funding it, you can’t fund it without open a channel, you cant open a channel without having at least one channel open, see step 2, then see step 3 again, then fall down the stairs and break your neck and just go spend fiat the rest of your life…..HELP!!!!
nostr:npub1aeh2zw4elewy5682lxc6xnlqzjnxksq303gwu2npfaxd49vmde6qcq4nwx was trying to open a #nodestrich channel, but it says I need one channel first. Any thoughts?
Yo nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s. Crazy bug on nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955 1.5 build 6. If you right click in the macOS app it immediately crashes (replies or new messages). Probably just got like 4 reports from me.
But there is a delicate balance between market demanding it and it being built so the market wants it. As Henry Ford once famously said, if he asked his customers what they wanted, they would’ve said a faster horse. Innovators sometimes have to innovate so the market knows what original thoughts/ideas are possible out there.
As much as I love lightning and Bitcoin, it has a fatal flaw. Complexity.
I’m pretty darn technical and even I can get a damn lightning wallet set up on a node. Now I know this is 301 level type stuff, but it’s not the least bit intuitive and damn near impossible to just fund a freaking lightning wallet to even begin to open channels. I shouldn’t need to open a bajillion channels to fund from my BTC wallet to my Lightning Wallet on the same node!
Can anyone please explain what I am doing wrong here?
🤣 “Easy Money” like scamming everyone with your book that is obviously full of false narratives and no understanding of Bitcoin at all? 
Thanks Doc! I figure at worst it can’t hurt as long as you stay within the “daily dose” and double check with your doctor that you don’t have anything in your chart or meds that could adversely interact with anything. I do feel like my baseline health is slightly better.
Definitely going to have to try that! I bet using some Vidalia sweet onions maybe even sautéed a bit would be money!
Bootlegging 5 bags home 🤣 got a healthy dose of 3-way with habanero cheese while visiting though!
#NostrDocs, what’s your thoughts on vitamins?
For transparency, I take Echinacea/Zinc/Vitamin D3 almost everyday and Magnesium and Iron every 3-4 days and I do feel better overall and haven’t really had any common colds that I can recall.
