Well ...

Charge-backs are not the only problem. I was seller/maker on another platform and had a guy hurry me to release the coins he just bought. I grew suspicious as it was his first trade and asked for ID. He asked me to return the funds which I did.

Weeks later our FBI equivalent I guess knocked on my door because of wire fraud. I had to explain to the general attorney what went on as she assumed I was a part of a fraud ring because funds of some victim were flowing into my account. Turns out guy's Facebook got hacked and the hacker asked all friends to do some urgent wire to my and other traders' accounts. Whenever somebody would bite, they opened trades with me and the others locking up our bitcoins with the platform.

This is a sign from above to get a node going. Meanwhile, you could just set up a temporary Alby or Breez wallet or something?

Same model as Bisq. I use it very often and never got problems.

The seller "locks" the sats with a hodl invoice before the buyer sends the fiat, so the seller can't do fraud. The only risk I can imagine is that the buyer does a fiat charge back, but that's not possible with most payment methods (sepa instant, revolut, wise are all final and not able to charge back). If there are complications the hodl invoice and the bonds will be locked and the mediator will collect evidence to decide.

Clearnet does not allow trading afaik, its only for demonstration purposes

Works for me on Android with Tor Browser, or even better on Desktop with Tor Browser. If it gets stuck a page refresh helps most of the time. If you run Umbrel you can also self host the frontend easily which makes it much more reliable and fast. The UX def needs to be improved but once you get a bit used to it its usable.

For lightning Phoenix won't work best as it limits the max hodl invoice duration. Works best with Blink Wallet (custodial tough), or Blixt Wallet

Robosats won't let me past the account creation. Clicking anything gives me an error and a stacktrace in my TOR Browser. The clearnet link got stuck creating the robot. Was showing a changing robot indefinitely. Firefox that is.

My LN sats sit in Phoenix, so I'd need to get liquidity with some other wallet first, too.

All that friction is a bit frustrating.

Where could I best buy some EUR with my BTC? The last times I used Bisq but the fees are just ridiculous. As a taker I have to do **3** on-chain transactions and pay 0.7% trading fees.

And Bisq does not show clearly how high the on-chain fees are. Turns out Bisq as of now pays the equivalent of $30 per TX! Yeah, great! Guess I'll not use Bisq until I feel like trading full Bitcoins or something.

Salary taxed, purchases taxed, wealth taxed, property taxed, inheritance taxed … Find the error

GN 🥱💤

Is there an option to test it first on testnet?

and copilot is free for students

unfortunately that time is long gone 😭

it's just C++ with even more complications.

What’s special about it?

What is the simplest way to do this peg from onchain to liquid (and vice versa if needed)?
