It'd, sorry about that. Ya i understand how it currently works, but that doesnt answer why one couldnt have increased security by having a lightning node which could pair with say a ledger to require the hardware device to sign for any on chain transactions whether its sweeping funds out or opening new channels. Doesnt seem that would would impair locking funds into lightning channels ( once theyre in lightning doesnt matter how you signed the transaction) and would allow one to have funds sit in the lightning node's wallet in the most secure way.

There is a basic bitcoin wallet( i said on chain but think were saying the same thing) with keys in all lightning nodes, and you lock funds into channels via a 2 of 2 multisig on chain transaction. Not understanding why the basic wallet that has utxos cant require a hardware wallet for signing tramsactions. Just curious for a concrete answer on that or why that wouldnt be a good idea.

Itd eliminate the first step of:

going from cold storage wallet --> on chain lightning wallet --> locked into a lightning

If i could secure the keys to my btc in my on chain lightning wallet that arent locked in a channel.

even the bitcoin not locked into a channel needs to be hot ?

Is there a future where onchain funds in a lightning wallet can be secured using a hardware wallet ? 🤔

If you arent ready to or planning to use bitcoin in defiance of some sort of defacto or outright ban of bitcoin in the US...I think you should start getting your stack in order or get out. If this becomes a real global banking crisis they will blame bitcoin imo. They will take their best shot ; assuming that will happen should be part of your strategy as a user of and believer in the bitcoin network.

Yep i got this running embassy OS, should do the trick for what you want.

Yep...service providers and users need to have the option to charge sats for everything for nostr to work and actually be something different that doesnt become a cesspool of ads and data tracking.

Easy...you have to pay over lightning to make a call. Or a setting for users to require payment for calls to go through with the option to whitelist npubs such as friends and follows for 0 sat calls.

Looking for a vote from the senators / house members im guessing on the looming budget battle ?

What they are doing might stave off the inevitabke for a bit...but if it doesnt work...this idea of unlimited backing, there is no options left now...we go full mandibles faster than we want.

If i were a democratic voter and this was supposidly an extremely important value to you...how the fuck can you keep voting for the Dems ? Dem voters are the ultimate cucks they must like it its the only explanation to keep voting for someone cuz they say some feel good shit and then just do whatever they want.

I personally think its obvious we need to pursue domestic drilling ( including from the lens of reducing emissions) but damn i cant imagine being some dem voter that actually believes what those charlatains say.

I dont really see how were not already there...especially after this unlimited backing of deposits. I guess all they gotta do is phase out cash and thats that. The banks are now a new us post office esque franchised govt entity basically.
