BTC 100% and going down the Lightning and Golang rabbit hole.

Appimage does this to me.

gossip-x86_64.AppImage.home

./gossip-x86_64.AppImage: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.38' not found (required by ./gossip-x86_64.AppImage)

./gossip-x86_64.AppImage: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.39' not found (required by ./gossip-x86_64.AppImage)

./gossip-x86_64.AppImage: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.38' not found (required by ./gossip-x86_64.AppImage

So downloaded .deb. It is working now and using it to reply.

Oracolo big update!

You know, Oracolo lets you create a personal blog using your Nostr content, and now is more powerful!

https://chronicle.dtonon.com/bd7c48a4deb7cafd0c725fa98ff0458b047c8aec47477e4b887491a140fcedcd.mp4

Freely organize your articles, notes and images in "blocks", with different styles, and pin your favorites, too! You can do this with a handy web wizard, no coding is required.

As usual, the blog is just a single HTML file, so you can host it everywhere.

But there is another great news, from a nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6's smart idea: you can also take advantage of Oracolo web service to host your blog. Just point your DNS to the generated auto-config domain, and your blog is live. It's free, too!

Check it at https://oracolo.me

PS: These “chaotic” domains are obviously only for viewing the blog preview, downloading the html (from the footer) or configuring the DNS of one's domain.

Looks great. Worked initially, but the view link stop working saying "This site can’t be reached'

I'd recommend using a Linux distro but really any OS would work though. In my way of thinking the HODL wallet should always be offline with very few exceptions.

For me if I can minimize my dependency on hardware devices, that is where I want to be.

There isn't a 100% risk fee method that I'm aware of. It's game of reducing exposure.

I've not used startOS or similar software-in-a-box solutions. By using them your are trusting they covered all the bases in terms of securing the device.

If one is going full anal on security, the device would never have access to the internet.

The next step up/down would be the device has a dedicated mission and is only brought online to perform a single task and then powered off again.

For the 24/7 devices, all sensitive data needs to be encrypted and stored locally and accessed on a on-demand basis.

### Prerequisite

1. [Installing Ubuntu Server](https://habla.news/u/0xjogir@nostrplebs.com/dAEcxFC4zBUN7ciTJLPZa)

2. [Installing Docker on Linux Server](https://habla.news/u/0xjogir@nostrplebs.com/917064)

### Installation

Open a Terminal session and write the following command to make sure that Docker is running:

```ruby

sudo systemctl status docker

```

You should get a screen with the docker.service as "running". To get back to command line do CTRL+C

Then, create the volume that Portainer Server will use to store its database:

```ruby

sudo docker volume create portainer_data

```

You are now ready for the on-liner installation:

```ruby

sudo docker run -d -p 8000:8000 -p 9443:9443 --name portainer --restart=always -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v portainer_data:/data portainer/portainer-ce:latest

```

To validate the installer, prompt the following command:

```ruby

sudo docker ps

```

You should see Portainer's container running.

To access Portainer Server, go to the following adress:

https://localhost:9443

Et voila!

Dope.

Looks great and I'm sure it will be a great solution for most people.

For me though this is a non-starter. For the following reasons.

1. I don't want to be forced to use a hardware signing device. So I'm not sure if

the software is usable without a hardware signing device.

2. No clue as to where the data directory for the wallet(s) will be located.

The difficulty is that there are so many choices of third party plugins to choose from.

The built-in PoS app is likely the least complicated to implement.

For your accounting needs, there is the Greenfield REST api which would allow you to automate accounting requirements.

Here is an article that I wrote that may get you going in the right direction.

Didn't all the employees at Fort Knox get fired?

I had three nodes going at one time now down to 1 active and 1 inactive.

It's been an educational journey and I'm still learning.

What gets me is the reason for creating Lightning was to have support for small transactions that were not cost effective to do on-chain.

But now it appears the tread is for Lightning nodes to open large channels to support making large payments which likely would be cheaper fee speaking on the on-chain network.

For example, one person indicated they receive $30 in fees for routing a $23k payment. That $23k payment could have likely be done on-chain for about a $3 fee.

Anyway, I'm getting disappointed in the way Bitcoin and Lightning stuff in trending. It's like the same people who conquered the value-base money with fiat based money are hard at work doing the same to Bitcoin and Lightning. Or maybe better said, "It appears human nature is prevailing again".

Maybe the real battle is improving human nature and NOT the money.
