GM I am once again posting a link to Bails - Bitcoin Core on TailsOS β˜€οΈ

Excellent choice πŸ€™

GM, just hotel coffee today - but grateful to be working in the literal Bitcoin mines instead of the fiat mines this week ⛏️ #coffeechain

Haven't used either but would definitely trust Unchained more. Jeff Vandrew has been doing this for years. Plus Swan got caught up in the Prime Trust banking fiasco just a couple months ago.

Mine works, but I had to find the sweet spot on my Pixel 6. And I had to hold the satscard there for longer than I expected.

We are back online! Things have been stable for the last 5 hours and we've made a number of improvements to assist with the generic error that has happened.

Essentially our encrypted lightning storage database had gone down. By default (configurable), the user's lightning state is encrypted and stored remotely so that everything can be restored with just the seed words. This also allows for using Mutiny with multiple devices.

While the state is also stored locally on the user device, we've had a number of problems in the past with that state not always saving to disk (mostly safari webview problems). We had to save remotely too for three layers of data redunancy and we check against all three and pick the greater version.

Because with lightning, if the latest state is not used, it will cause force closes and loss of funds. So if remote storage is enabled (default), we require checking it.

When our DB went down, requests were not timing out. That was one fix we made, after 30 seconds of loading a single request, we error out when initializing the wallet. We also made a new screen for when this happens.

Further, we have now implemented "safe mode" that still allows for viewing your wallet and accessing your on chain funds.

Lastly, we have made a number of improvements to our VSS (versioned storage server) database to hopefully help make sure it doesn't go down again. We will be monitoring this and look at other solutions if it continues to be a problem.

Download the latest android version if you used that, or simply reload the PWA/web version to pull down the latest updates. Sorry about the trouble, let us know if there's any issues! https://github.com/MutinyWallet/mutiny-web/releases/tag/v0.4.12-1

Wasn't there a recent book or movie where a character was saving up for a 247 sleep service?

Thanks! Thought it was just because of the new password decrypt process (or who knows, maybe it is) πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

I left a joke reply about a 'Bitcoin Airdrop' and got immediately blocked and reported by someone. Careful with that word πŸ˜…

I always thought this was a cool project, and I never hear anyone mention it. Seems like a great solution for TailsOS users who don't want to connect to a random Electrum server when using Bitcoin on Tails. Very easy to use since the last major Tails update. nostr:npub1dergggklka99wwrs92yz8wdjs952h2ux2ha2ed598ngwu9w7a6fsh9xzpc nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx nostr:npub1az9xj85cmxv8e9j9y80lvqp97crsqdu2fpu3srwthd99qfu9qsgstam8y8

Hey, is there a guide somewhere for importing a wallet in Sparrow Server (the headless version)? I usually have better results when I watch or read a guide before I try software out. #asknostr #selfcustody #linux

Hey desk-sitting workers - is there an affordable office chair with good ergonomics that you'd recommend?

Not looking for a standing desk anytime soon - I'm on my feet doing martial arts & weight training for at least 6 hours per day.
