I have the old device, is there a way to get a export the history from the old phone into a CSV file or something?

nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5 I have followed your backup/restore instructions after getting a new phone. I closed my old channels (all using Zeus LSP), restored on new phone using phrase. My on-chain balance is showing on the new phone (yay!) but after 10 minutes I see no lightning transaction history. I need this for tax reporting purposes. Is there any way to export the transaction history or get it to populate on my new phone? Thank you for any help you can offer :)

#asknostr what is a great on-boarding resource for new users that isn't super heavy about mentioning Bitcoin? How do I get people from "twitter refugee" to "nostr user"

Pretty wild watching the #Bitcoin price react to the news today in realtime

GM nostr may today be a good day for you, chase those dreams!

You need a LNURL to accept payments this way (or a wallet which fully supports BOLT12, they are on the way!). Custodial wallets like strike can get you an LNURL, so can self-custody wallets like Zeus. And they can make the QR codes too.

GM NOSTR Tip for #orangepilling: Don't say the word #bitcoin or #crypto, many people have big negative reactions to those words. Say #lightning, people have no idea what lightning is. Tell people how lightning solves their problem, play to their preconceptions, lightning is fast, it's amazing, it's easy. Pretty soon they're like wow this idea is cool. Now that they think it's cool, you can mention that all this lightning stuff happens on Bitcoin, but because it's confronting an idea they already think (lightning sounds cool!), they get way less defensive and combative, and they are inclined to agree with it because otherwise they'd have to admit they were wrong about that lightning thing. You are using their own cognitive bias against them. I have been using this to great effect telling people about #nostr #grownostr

Nostr is pretty far along and already well committed to the whole "every user is not a relay" paradigm. Which is fine, it's probably "decentralized enough". One of the key pressure points coming up is going to be the cost of hosting media for relays and the tendency for relays to centralize a bit as the average relay hosting cost increases due to increased users and particularly increased media. If we integrate a P2P way to store and to distribute media now, we can avoid much of that.

For example, we have a NIP for associating a pubkey with a LNURL (lightning address). We can also have a NIP for defining a link to an "external media" which is downloaded via Freenet, Hyphanet, IPFS, etc. Let the client do the work of downloading and re-sharing media content while the relays are responsible for text and links to media. At least for Freenet, you talk to it via your web browser via a localhost port. So a nostr client can easily make links to, upload, and download through it without ever needing to leave the browser. The only thing that needs to be true for that to work is for the user to run the freenet client in the background. Unfortunately, they don't have a client for Android or iPhone, but proxy services (like currently used for media) can help with that. IPFS may be another route, I am less familiar with it.

If you're doing nostr dev, this could be something that I think would be on the easier side to implement. I'd gladly contribute to a bounties for it, this is something I'm passionate about.

If we assume x number of events per day on the network, the more relays, the fewer events each relay needs to store. Text events are tiny, you can fit all of wikipedia's text on a DVD. If we integrate with other P2P networks like #IPFS, #Freenet, #Hyphanet, etc for storage of media, then space isn't much of a concern. Tor isn't needed, NAT punching protocols exist and are mature, plus IPv6.

Think of it this way: Can your phone store all the text from all your social media posts? What about all of your 10 closest friends? Yes? Then this can scale.

But you don't need to take my word for it, look at existing P2P technologies which have been doing this kind of routing for years. There's no need to centralize around relays.

People complain that "not everybody will run a relay", well, why is that? Because the architecture of the network and the UX of the software doesn't automatically do it for them. Why is running a relay not automatic when running a client? It could be. Every client could be a relay.

I think maybe you are confused on the terms.

Custodial wallet = somebody else holds the BTC for you

Non-custodial wallet = there is no custodian, YOU hold the BTC

Zeus is a non-custodial wallet. Strike is a custodial wallet.

Custodial? Strike

Non-custodial? Zeus

This compromise doesn't have to be made, P2P networks figured out much of this a decade ago. Look at #I2P, #Freenet #Hyphanet. I wish nostr would integrate some w these platforms, especially for media storage. They are more decentralized and more censorship resistant.

#Lemmy, it's a decentralized/federated clone of reddit

#asknostr I have #zeus wallet and I want to onboard other #zeus users. When we first setup their wallet, is there a way for me to open a lightning channel w them with a 50/50 liquidity ratio so they actually have some inbound liquidity to work with?

#asknostr What do you use for "personal knowledge management" ie to track notes, diary, car maintenance, and other things you need to remember that are not calendar events? Does it work well? If you've tried other systems, why do you like this one better than others?

Idea for #nostr, make a NIP to integrate nostr with a lightweight #freenet client and use freenet for media upload/download. Post text to nostr, upload media to freenet. The end result would be a decentralized, censorship-resistant, CDN for all the content you upload to nostr without adding additional burden to existing relays. Thoughts? #asknostr

I have heard Koinly is one of the best out there, keep in mind they do not support #strike if you use strike.

Middle-ground between mute/block and follow. I have a few people I follow who post *constantly*. I want to see some of their stuff, not all of their stuff, and in proportion to the other people I follow.

You do though, that's what I'm saying. "Electrolytes" is potassium, calcium, magnesium, sodium, chloride. You'd struggle to find foods that don't give you at least one of those. It's like asking "How do you refill your calories if you do workouts?". By eating. Eating does it. Electrolytes as a concept outside of chemistry and science are just a marketing ploy to make you buy gatorade and supplements, nobody needs to try to get any more than they already get through diet unless they are on an extreme workout regimen, like immediately during and after a marathon.
