Get started with Phoenix Wallet. It’s non-custodial and you have your own seed phrase.

It’s a great way to start understanding LN channel manage management and the like.

“Phoenix is a real, self-contained Lightning node that runs on your phone. It does not require you to run another Lightning node at home or in the cloud. It is not a custodial wallet either, you are in full control of your funds.”

It's a good idea to look at Phoenix to learn from, but I don't think it's the solution. Would rather run a node on a secure host than a phone.

Anyone have experience with Mutiny Wallet? Is there a project something like it that people would recommend? Something easy to deploy on a linux server that does not have any obscure dependencies?

Elon is a false prophet... one of many.

Do not bow down to their idols of fiat GBDC, gold and silver made with human hands. Put the mark on your forehead, in the front of your mind, of the God who created all things, and who sealed our hope with a promise.

If you’re using a custodial Lightning wallet, there’s no guarantee that the sats are there (don’t trust, verify, and all that). Although the primary custodial Lightning providers like nostr:npub1hcwcj72tlyk7thtyc8nq763vwrq5p2avnyeyrrlwxrzuvdl7j3usj4h9rq and nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm and nostr:npub1ex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jq6qvyt9 seem pretty legit 🧡

You can run your own Lightning node with your own hardware and seed phrase, in which case your open Lightning channels are essentially a 2-of-2 multi sig with channel partners.

An intro to this would be non-custodial LN wallets like Phoenix or Breez (I’ve liked both).

Perhaps nostr:npub1wtfnlhvhvm90lgsgyd6cu82tj3v429y7qkuu54srwzxpefppc2zq3cjjv2 or nostr:npub1aeh2zw4elewy5682lxc6xnlqzjnxksq303gwu2npfaxd49vmde6qcq4nwx or nostr:npub1utx00neqgqln72j22kej3ux7803c2k986henvvha4thuwfkper4s7r50e8 could provide more detailed/technically precise info on how Lightning nodes function, if you’re curious ⚡️🤙

This ^

I still have not setup a wallet because custodial wallets are not the solution and only perpetuate the problem.

So far the technical details for LN Nodes give me the impression that it will be a huge time commitment to setup. I appreciate the links and continue to investigate. I also have vps' ready to roll as soon as I can get my head around the tech.

Anyone with a solid understanding of how it all works, please post links for people like me.

This is because you must assimilate. Resistance is futile. We are borg. You depend on us. You cannot live without your coninuous connection to the collective. That is all.

We actually live in the time when two plus two make five, becuase the overlords own the science. Want to burry them in firey coals? Keep doing what is good. RO-12:20

It's still early, and the clients are very different one from another. Try different clients. Gossip is the best, but I'm on a linux box not a phone.

Free speech means allowing people to say what they want. There is a lot of anti jew speak on the gab platform, but there are also a lot of evil jews who have earned the ire. Personnaly I think the people spewing the jew hate are ignorant and doing no better than the race baiting on the left. The people in charge want you divided. Start dividing by good and evil and see how it goes for them... They will reap the whirl wind.

I do enjoy being able to watch linked video on these sites. When they lock the door like twitter just did, is the end of them. I want distributed and open source, or nothing... Big thanks to the devs on Nostr. It is no small thing you have done.

THIS ^ every time big tech does something tyranical, more people find nostr.

I expect big changes coming to data transfer over the internet. Not allowing any traffic without the mark of the beast, and going after anything encrypted as if it were someone questioning election results. I have been thinking about how to encrypt using obfuscation rather than encryption.

In fact, It has been in the back of my mind for quite some time that high volume of zaps could serve to be that obfuscation for bitcoin transactions. Not sure who pulls that sting... Jack probably knows that club.

Things are going to heat up frens. Stacking sats wont save you anymore than gold coins. It is true, they cant stop bitcoin, but they do funnel and filter the internet. I am more bullish on mesh nets than bitcoin, unpopular as that statement is.

Yeah, unauthenticated access is the probem... come on Elon, 50% of twitter accounts are authenticated bots.

Exactly, links to twitter are now useless to about 90% of the people on nostr.

Do you mean the fact that nobody can read your link unless they have or create a twitter account and login...

Youtube is probably days away from following this structure. Dev's ... keep coding, an in-rush is comming.
