Yeah that would be around 3.2$ (max. withdrawal 80$ here in Colombia). That would already be cheaper than most banks in central America. 🤷♂️
Well... at least if I ever need to move a shitton of cash, I know who to call. 😂🤙
Yeah but imagine how many people would be using them if it was cheaper than traditional banking?
If they had 1-2% fees, they'd easily have 5-10x the customers here. There are people queing up in front of banks all the time... imagine that. 🙈
So… here’s a suggestion: if we want to spread adoption in Central and South American countries, how about we stop charging 10% withdrawal fees at Bitcoin ATMs? 🙈
Whenever I look on the map that’s the fee I see.
Who do the ATM providers expect to use it with such high fees? People are better off just withdrawing at their local bank for 5-8$ in fees… that’s still less than at the BTC ATM?
If they had lower fees and could save in BTC, withdraw in their local currencies, adoption would skyrocket imo…
Also for travelers like us it would be so practical… but as long as traditional banking is cheaper (and tbh… that’s pretty absurd but it is what it is), who do we expect to use the ATMs?

Colombia is pretty amazing so far. Getting the truck out of the harbor was a pain in the ass but in the end it worked out and both our vehicles arrived without any damages, which is the most important thing.
So our journey continues on a new continent.
Hello South America. 🫶

Ah, no, sorry... I'm just trying to set everything up and get everything working for me. ;) Not a coder, just interested and having fun tinkering around with that stuff.
GM and PV nostriches.
Here’s a little shot of how our last few days have looked.
San Blas Islands were indeed pretty amazing. 😍

I cannot add LNURLs in LNURLp, because it always spits out an http link instead of https. I’ve tried the ALLOWED_IP env, I’ve gotten rid of the proxy and given it a port, reachable from the outside via my own NGINX proxy and sats.mydomain.com with a let’s encrypt certificate but still it just won’t spit out https links. 🤔
We made it to South America!!
After a few days at the incredibly beautiful San Blas Islands we crossed the open ocean on a sailboat from Panama to Colombia… holy crap… what a ride. 🙈🤮
The San Blas Islands were incredible but I don’t think we’d do it again.
I’m not much of.a sailor but I was pretty sure we’re gonna die tonight. 😂
Luckily we didn’t and that means the only continent we have yet to set our feet on is Antarctica… we’ll see what our budget allows when we finally get to Ushuaia at the end of the year. Would love to do an Antarctica expedition but they are crazy expensive. 🙈

Well I do have https:// set up via my NGINX proxy so I can get in and https:// works, it's just that lnbits (or i guess rather lnurlp?) doesn't create the urls as https://.
what are you running? raspiblitz or everything just straight on linux?
I can't create LNURLs in LNbits and it's driving me mad... Whenever I create one it writes it as http:// and I can't get it to write it out as https://.
I have added the ALLOWED_IPS and HOST env, I have disabled the app proxy and added web port variable with 3007:3007 and I have NGINX running and https:// access to LNbits, yet it doesn't spit out https:// LNURLs.
Anybody got an idea?

I have to say.. iris used to be my top web client.. coming back after a month and trying out snort, I guess that's changed.
Good job guys. 👏
😂 Well, GM anyways, amigo. 🤜💥🤛
been away on home-holiday for a month. what's changed?
So where are the Lightning/LNbits/Umbrel pros here?
I have a few things that I can't get to work.
Halp plis.
