Liquid Network

Liquid Network is extremely undervalued. People are still thinking about coinjoins and arguing among themselves when they have a much cheaper method.

Remember that transactions on Liquid are confidential, only the signer of the transaction and the receiver can know what amount has been sent, for them Borromean ring signatures are used.

Manual for Dummies:

- You make a peg-in of the amount you want to anonymize, if you have an elements node (Liquid node) or use the decentralized Exchange Tdex the cost will be only the cost of the chain transaction, if you do not have any of the above available you can make a peg-in with sideswap for 0.1%.

- Once you have converted your btc inside Liquid to L-BTC you make a peg-out with sideswap, do not make a peg-out of the same total amount that you have made the peg-in and try to space it in time if there are several. The cost of the sideswap peg-out is 0.1% plus the fee of the chain transaction.

One way to avoid also performing the peg-in is to buy L-BTC directly for example on Bisq.

In the best case, the whole operation will cost you the fee of two blockchain transactions and 0.1% in the worst case 0.2% plus the two blockchain transactions, I recommend you to set up your own node elements or use the decentralized Exchange tdex to perform the peg-in without permission and avoid that 0.1%.

When you make a peg-out you receive btc that are retained in the federation, the allocation is random, so seen from the outside, Liquid is like a classic mixer but without centralized custody as it is federated, your coins enter the federation and when you leave with a peg-out you are given other coins that are not your initial coins thus breaking the heuristics of your initial coins.

All this is done without any KYC, you can increase the anonymity using tor or a vpn in sideswap so that there is no trace of your ip.

I had heard about Liquid several years ago, but basically nobody was talking about do assumed it was just another random project that wouldn't go anywhere.

Now, it sounds like it had a solid use case for us: #privacy

That honest sharing system looks very interesting.

Typically, has it been used as a stand-alone technique? Or is it something used more commonly in more specific contexts (such as in a licensed therapists office, by mindfulness coaches, etc.)?

While we're at it, how can we mute or block certain hashtags?

While I've run across some devs working on Nostr-related projects here on #Nostr, I'm not sure what else everyone does.

Of course, you all know that I'm an educator, but what is it that *you* do to bring in those delicious sats (and/or stinky fiat)?

#grownostr

Well, I had one visitor for my first nest, who jumped ship as soon as I invited him to the stage.

Better luck next time?

Whether you're a parent, an educator, or even just a decent human being, please take a moment to watch this discussion and to think seriously about the type of personal content you choose to post online.

Out of curiosity, have you ever tried mining XMR?

If so, would you be willing to share about your experience with getting started, what hardware you'd recommend to newbies, pitfalls to avoid, etc.?
