How? Newbie just need to download Zeus, Alby Go, Damus, etc., scan a QR you gave them and use wallet.
In less free countries where custodial services like Strike or Cash App are unavailable or undesirable, **LNbits** or **Alby Hub + NWC** are excellent for orangepilling Bitcoin newbies. Set up a Lightning wallet on your own node, share access, and let them buy small amounts of your sats. Once they’ve built a UTXO (~0.01 BTC), they’ll likely be ready for their own cold wallet. If not, you can reclaim your funds. This approach avoids exchanges and custodial solutions, keeping it simple and self-sovereign. #Bitcoin #LightningNetwork #Orangepilling
It saddens me that creators rely on platforms like Patreon and SubscribeStar, paying high fees, while the door to a better world is wide open. They should be driving innovation, but they're falling behind. I'm putting in a lot of effort to change this.
The least a fellow Bitcoiner without programming skills can do is set up a personal Lightning hub for friends and family using tools like LNBits or AlbyHub. Buy, sell, and trade #Bitcoin with them, educate them, and even offer Bitcoin-backed loans. This is how we build an economy free from government and bank control.
Do you do it because you don’t have access to streaming services or because you find it fair?
Are you torrents user? Do you usually download music and movies, or do you prefer streaming platforms like Netflix and Spotify? #freedom
"I hope NWC emerges as protocol that unifies the different Bitcoin implementations....

NWC is indeed a fantastic protocol! I could only dream of connecting my Tor hidden Lightning node to my mobile wallet.

Hi, everyone. I come from X, inspired by Jeff Booth. I know Nostr is kind of empty now, but I hope we will make it better together.
I run my Core node, mine with BitAxe, and maintain a beautiful Lightning Node. I help my friends and family use Lightning easily with LNBits. I offer local businesses the use of my BTCPay Server to accept payments and transfer to self-custody wallets smoothly and safely. I write helpful issues on GitHub and much more. Follow me for handy tips, shitposting, and other stuff.
