If I didn’t have suits trying to put me in a box, I might be bored.

Yes. Have you heard about nostr:npub1jg552aulj07skd6e7y2hu0vl5g8nl5jvfw8jhn6jpjk0vjd0waksvl6n8n satellite?

📡DYK: You can sync a full node offline & anonymously using data beamed down from Blockstream satellites in space via radio signals. 📡

What is a Blockstream Satellite Node:

A Blockstream Satellite Node broadcasts Bitcoin blockchain data via satellite, enhancing the Bitcoin network's accessibility, resilience and privacy. If you are crafty, this could be done for less than $100 fiat.

This is a great DIY project for cypherpunks. It is also a great project for using a cheap SDR.

It can also be a great way to introduce pre-coiners in your local ham radio club to bitcoin and why bitcoin nodes are important. There are a lot of very smart people in your local ham radio club that we can bring in to our side.

1. ⚡️⚡️ Satellite Transmission: Transmits Bitcoin data, reducing reliance on internet connections.

2. ⚡️⚡️ Global Access: Provides Bitcoin data access in regions with limited internet.

3. ⚡️⚡️ Network Resilience: Increases resistance to internet disruptions.

4. ⚡️⚡️ Privacy Benefits: By not relying on local ISPs, which might monitor internet traffic, satellite nodes enhance privacy and reduce surveillance risks.

5. ⚡️⚡️ Equipment Needed: Requires a satellite dish, USB satellite receiver, and a computer.

6. ⚡️⚡️ Lower Costs: Reduces bandwidth costs in areas with expensive internet.

This system promotes Bitcoin network decentralization and ensures privacy by enabling access and participation without traditional internet dependency.

Went out with some old friends for drinks tonight. At this age, I appreciate old friends. Rare.

Thanks for bringing up log2_work. It gave me a nice opportunity to learn more about #Bitcoin in a short amount of time. Also, whoa. 🤯

I followed this guide for my first one and it’s been hanging outside catching all kinds of activity including a few people on planes leaving town. https://meshtastic.org/docs/community/enclosures/rak/harbor-breeze-solar-hack/

I'm using Blue Wallet for on-chain. My only #lightning wallet is the one that comes with nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg. Do I need a different one? If so, what? I have no nodes or anything like that, in case it matters. #asknostr

I recommend first getting a node. Contact nostr:npub1r7psmkr4zv93xnal8un6d8hvmpsn5jvhfzn3kk38rfcel6awznks7znspg to discuss. After you get a node running, then you’ll have more options, some would say better.

Shit I thought I was. Something to do.

I was fortunate to have an opportunity to contribute some ham radio audio to this project. The audio is in the SSTV format and can be converted into an image using free ham radio software.

The “transmission” begins at 16:50. If you are able to decode it, post the image as a reply.

Check out the whole episode, there is a very cool segment on numbers stations and one time pads. Also, give nostr:npub1f49twdlzlw667r74jz6t06xxlemd8gp2j7g77l76easpl8jsltvqvlzpez a follow if you haven’t already.

Recommended software for first time SSTV decoders.

Thanks for sharing!

I have not sign in to watch YouTube because they want me to prove I'm not a bot. Not understanding the logic here.
