Tornado today in Dongming, Shandong Province of China
I saw some argue you spend it, and keep replacing the amount you spend w/ fiat. Also another argument is spending BTC makes it also a medium of exchange and drives the value up, bettering all of us. Though the biggest problem for us Monero folk is that BTC's public ledger, not good. Lightning is a bit more private at least.
You're now excommunicado.
Nostr is a bit full of BTC Maxis, so I have my doubts we'll see other chains on Nostr in near future.
What chains do you have in mind?
Surely option of zapping people w/ Monero or Solana would be nice, I think.
IDK about others but Primal has that when you're Zapping from their profile:
Make sure to be online while you're receiving sats/zaps or just enable persistent mode, otherwise your channel might get force closed if you receive a payment while being offline.
Total amount of value locked on Lightning Network.
OR total number of channels/nodes, one of these.

I accept defeat, I'll assume you think rpi puts a Demonic curse on the same SSD that's used everywhere when you connect it to rpi, given no other form of explanation is provided despite asking multiple times/ways.
This's a common theme on the internet.
Person A says rpi is bad for purpose X.
I ask why.
People start commenting that there's better compute for similar price.
Except it's not answer to what I asked. My question isn't trying to discover best compute for pi price, it's trying to discover what's bad about pi for purpose X.
"Why pi is bad for purpose x?" and "Can I get better compute for purpose X w/ similar price point?" are different questions.
Well yes, Micro SD can't stand to this, that's a very well known thing. I've been only running BTC node for a month but I've been using USB SSD powered multiple rpi for years, and been running a Monero node for the last 10 months w/o any problems. I'm using 4 for different reasons like Home Assistant, remote VPN and seed box, n8n instance, Monero and BTC nodes, media/Samba/Plex server etc. They've been pretty reliable overall. That's why I asked. So, I didn't start using these yesterday, or a month ago. Wondered what's the thing you encountered that I haven't in years on multiple different rpi and use cases.
You keep saying it breaks or it's shity, but not mentioning what breaks or what's shitty exactly? USB HDD speeds? Overall system reliability? Are the HDD enclosures controllers dying on you? Is it the cable? Is it the USB port? Is it the operating system? Is it the lack of AArch64 software support? Cooling? Processing power? Ram? What is it? I'm no fanatic of any SBC, just trying to understand why the most popular SBC that I've been using w/o problems is bad for this purpose.
""shitty node and a shitty experience and bound to break in less than 2 years" can you expand on that? Mine looks to be running fine for about a month now on rpi5. Haven't encountered it "breaking". IDK what you mean by node breaking.
"raspi won't cut it"
Are you so sure?
The BTCPay server I'm running on rpi5 claims otherwise.
Also there's pruned node option, so you don't need 1TB.

What I always failed to understand about ecash is that, isn't lighting pretty private as is already? IRS has bounty for both Monero and Lightning last I checked.
