nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5 Are there plans to integrate the built in clnrest plugin instead of c-lightning-rest?

Or inscribed it on chain 🤮 jk… Can you send me a lightning invoice for a pdf?

No. Mostly embarrassed by my lack of coding skills

Hi nostr:npub1r0ck3tz85gl36wg730thk36c6xylc6caaafqsxy6pe5wq8y8gfhqjl0j93, thanks for the FC bot! I noticed that it doesn't include the fees paid for HTLCs that either timed out or didn't resolve back to the sender.

In my case that added 48k sat to one FC, in addition to whatever I need to pay in order to sweep this output. Do you think it's worthwile to add these transactions to your calculations? I realize that they only appear after a delay (cltv_expiry for the two HTLC transactions and to_self_delay for the sweeps).

PS: I always resort to https://ellemouton.com/posts/htlc-deep-dive/ in order to understand what's going on. Really helpful :)

I only run the calc once, when the FC is mined. Sometimes it’ll include a htlc sweep if it makes it to my mempool before I calculate the fees for the FC (pretty rare). But the bot already posts A LOT and there’s still over 1k FCs in the mempool.

The main problem is the expiry/delay isn’t known from the raw FC tx and not everyone runs a node that will stage 1 sweep immediately. And I believe most implementations won’t stage 2 sweep at a loss. So the backlog of unfinished FCs that needs to be tracked will grow.

Maybe if the mempool ever clears up, I can do some sort of post mortem analysis since I do keep a record of all the FC txids.

Getting a hash mismatch on the release binaries for bitcoin core v26. Can anyone else double check? https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/29038

My 2 sats re: nostr:npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk & nostr:npub1qtvl2em0llpnnllffhat8zltugwwz97x79gfmxfz4qk52n6zpk3qq87dze - as long as pools are transparent and specify their blocktemplate policy, miners can decide which pools to direct their hash power to. It’s not like every other pool uses the same policy.

Also 3 of the top 10 mining pools currently “exclude” txs by including lower fee txs either by out of band payment or charity. If anything, I wish every pool would show the blocktemplate. (Disclaimer: I am a very small miner, <100Th/s, with 1 S9 currently on nostr:npub1qtvl2em0llpnnllffhat8zltugwwz97x79gfmxfz4qk52n6zpk3qq87dze and rest elsewhere. I never mined on eligius (mostly p2pool back then) and probably disagree more often than agree with nostr:npub1lh273a4wpkup00stw8dzqjvvrqrfdrv2v3v4t8pynuezlfe5vjnsnaa9nk )

Pushed an update to include non anchor FCs ⚡️⚡️ nostr:note1f7m29rsj5r4uzqrujdxasjxvzws5llpmznyvxt24ln8vcu3a4jksv860ya

WTF. FC was CPFP’d to 5500(!!!!) sats/vB (and would’ve made it in the next block without it) nostr:note12aggtvz9lgt9at9etrh8xfvquz0a82cdd9rmy5wuq6mge7rr3wgs6pxrgu

Any particular reason? Others have mentioned the bot I made, but it’s still not complete.

Opened zero conf, non-broadcasted channels to nostr:npub1v4v57fu60zvc9d2uq23cey4fnwvxlzga9q2vta2n6xalu03rs57s0mxwu8 blixt wallet on all of my devices. ⚡️⚡️⚡️(Thanks nostr:npub1qgwhaaa2lsp54rl0hfx7qa3z678ax6wlre0em475rhpvl7n54cpqgg7y7n)

nostr:npub1r0ck3tz85gl36wg730thk36c6xylc6caaafqsxy6pe5wq8y8gfhqjl0j93 Your Amboss page says "FYI: Most channels will be disabled when the mempool fees are high. They will be re-enabled once the mempool cools down."

Can you point me to more info about this behavior? I'm interested in learning what motivates this (and how to do it)

Non-anchor channels are very expensive if they get force closed.

My own node decided to make an appearance :( nostr:note17pyx5ttl62duspazekcemdcdhtzkun58al47jpdx70vgf502y0asm994fq

Got my vanity #[0]​ ⚡️ address.

Seeing more people suggesting RAID/ZFS setups, but my opinion is that’s pretty useless since most of the data is blockchain related (ie, better to run 2 nodes with 2 large storage drives than 1 node with mirroring). I’ve been looking into replicating only the lnd db directory and seems like DRBD is the best option, but wanted to get your thoughts before diving into it.

#[0]​ Have you ever looked into DRBD for data replication?

Your LN node is reporting as down for almost a week

An empty block too :( nostr:note1qqpntg8vn8v0zvx4g062zlscey67m4v75h6dlevnu9ta54kg0m2qzmwg46

Pushing my lightning force close detector to this bot. nostr:note1ejajgjrs0x85xhsrhcuxk2fsa8aw042ahyqknjmq78uw8t7gvtpsg7y7sa

I zapped a couple days ago, but doesn’t show up on any of the Nostr clients

Good time to consolidate small utxos while the mempool is empty.

yes

Do you want a balanced channel? (need bos)

hi everyone~!!

I hav just updated my website:

https://kittyboy.space

there’s a new event menu to try out.

since my node is so close to reaching level 7, i will be giving away 7000 sats~!!!

once the node hits level 7, the event should become active.

please check out the site once it does to try and collect some sats.

less than 40 exp to go~!! ^_^

Do you run lnd?

1.05 sats/vB transactions are making it into blocks. 🙌
