Number 2 is about building a mesh network. Thats the end goal. Captive portals are just a useful milestone...
I tried doing number 3 about two weeks ago with the intention of enabling TollGates to resell each other's Internet gateways. The router's resources are much too limited for CDK or cashu-cli though. Now I'm using an endpoint that melts cashu tokens to LNURL.
Eventually the router's need a way to issue payments as well though...
Nodogsplash supports bandwidth management. Should be quite easy to do. I'll start thinking about such features when I'm working on the price negotiation between TollGates
Sweet. GL.iNet makes great OpenWRT powered devices, I have 4 of them in different places. https://www.gl-inet.com
It works on the GLAR300m
LNURLw is not maintained at the moment, but payment might work on other routers if you use LNURLw.
You will to make a custom build of nodogsplash for your router if your not using the glar300m and you want to use e-cash instead of LNURLw
This build is super hacky and the strings that nodogsplash accepts are still quite short. Improvements are most welcome 😀
My upcoming todos:
1. Get ndsctl to measure the data usage correctly - might need to dig into iptables
2. Get TollGates to recognize each other so that they can do business with one another
3. Either try to fit a cashu wallet onto the TollGate or make nostr events to broadcast connection intent so that DVMs can pay invoices on the router's behalf
Wow that's probably a huge schock to the system when it comes at such short notice. Generally I cherish opportunities to lower my expenses and I try to avoid having to interact with fiat mines all together. This is easier said than done, but I find it quite liberating when it works...
Congratulations on regaining control over your time! It sounds like this wasn't by choice, but perhaps it's a blessing in disguise 😀
We are planning a nostr hack day on the day before BTC++ in Berlin (9th of October). This is also the day of Berlin's Socratic seminar.

Bitcoin is auditable and permissoonless. A lot of innovation would be required to get these features into governance structures. Perhaps nostr is part of that solution 😀
I don't think governance can replace money. One is about social problem solving while the other is about optionality and resource constraints.
When radio?
