It doesn't scale... so you wouldn't have large urban environments. If anything good comes out of covid era is that people's realize that urban density was the biggest issue. Large cities should start losing population and that population gets spread out more evenly creating more smaller cities. Technology should eliminate the reasons why big cities were more efficient. Push more govt power to the edges... technology should also eliminate the reasons why a big central govt was more efficient too.

But will that same database be running and syncing at each Cashu server/node? Say you want a 5 node Cashu geo separated "cluster" and two fail completely or are stolen... Will the other 3 run "the cluster" without a hiccup in service?

Have you been looking into how a home user can easily setup a geographically separated Cashu servers (i.e. one at home and other servers at others at family member's homes). That stay in sync? Or is that just too hard to do

Which one of you fuckers isn’t running your own node? 🫵😐

If you’re not using your own node, you have no voice in any potential fork drama. No node, no choice.

I’m in the middle of standing up all my infra. It takes months of odd hour chipping away at things, and I’m not even close to where I want to be. Where are you?

You also need to be making real value for value transactions otherwise running a node isn't doing much...

so a16GB ram drive acting as swap partition? How does the ram swap help? From my few hours of research it didn't seem like it would so I haven't attempted trying that.

Give us your time, energy, attention, etc and you'll get a token... sats on the Bitcoin network. It's all tokens and if you understand what you're getting and accept the token then there's no reason to get mad.

There shouldn't be any interest bearing loans under a Bitcoin standard. At least it should trend that way.

I understand that part but I don't think Fedimint's current implementation has redundancy on a lightning guardian that fails. Say you're on vacation in Costa Rica and you're minting/zapping away and the guardian the zaps arr going through fails during a transaction... and since you're on vacation you won't be able to fix the failure for a couple of weeks.

What happens to the lightning transactions that were ongoing when the Fedimint's guardian LN gateway failed/went offline? If you're already running multiple guardians then one of those should take over as the failed LN gateway with a fully synched database and things should just move along as if no failure happened... no risk of forced closures or loss of funds.

I think the trickiest part of this is how you handle the LN gateways. Does your federation have one LN gateway that is clustered among the guardians? Does each guardian run its own LN gateway? I found documentable from LND on how you would run a clustered LND node but I wanted to use CLN.

Because it's not possible but you already know that...
