nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm THANK YOU for Alby Hub!

Incredibly easy set up, and now I am zapping using my own nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll node!

If it's not in the works already... Alby Hub + LNBits would be 🔥🔥🔥!

Figured it out. Needed to have a Github account.

Found that, thanks! Looks super easy, but I don't appear to have the download option available when I go to the Github:

Did you have a tutorial you followed that you could post a link to?

nostr:npub1xv8mzscll8vvy5rsdw7dcqtd2j268a6yupr6gzqh86f2ulhy9kkqmclk3x ?

That is incredible! I guess I will have a project for next week.

Theology > Doxology > Axiology

Believing the truth of the gospel ought to cause us to erupt worship toward God and motivate us to live in accord with his commands out of gratitude for his overwhelming grace toward us as undeserving sinners.

Not another biblically legitimate one, IMO.

Listened to you on WBD on the way to the office, guess I will listen to note of you on the way home. It's a good day!

Since no one goes to global anymore, for obvious reasons, I would say that interacting with other folks' content is the main way.

If web of trust tools made global more usable on more clients, posting your own content might be a legitimate way to grow, too.

You can always try and reject blocks that contain such transactions, if you have a way to identify them, but you would fork yourself off from anyone who didn't follow your lead.

Mining pools have always had and always will have complete authority to include or not include whatever valid transactions (according to consensus rules) they want. Don't like it? Get yourself more hash rate and include the transactions they won't in the blocks you mine.

This is an open protocol. Participants will act in their own interest and there is nothing any of us can do about it if it doesn't violate the consensus rules our nodes enforce.

Want another rule enforced? It better be a good enough idea to win over the majority of nodes.

Let's be specific here. Mining pools sell their expected block space, and they have always been able to decide what transactions they want to include in their block templates.

This has not really been an issue, since fees have generally been a smaller portion of the block reward than the subsidy, other than a few notable exceptions. But as miners begin to rely more heavily on fee revenue, they are likely to put a premium on prearranged, and even prepaid, fee income.

Right now the fee market is almost entirely handled via our nodes' mempools and is only interested in the fee rate to make it into the next several blocks, but that very well may change, and particularly institutions will be interested in locking in guaranteed fee rates for months into the future, if mining pools are willing to offer it to them.

Umbrel definitely has more apps in their store, and if your plan is to use it as a home server, then Umbrel may be the way to go. That said, the lack of ability to add external drives is definitely limiting for that use-case. I am not sure about Start9's support for additional external drives, though, since I don't use it as a home server.

I don't use the same device for my Bitcoin and Lightning node as for my home server. Part of the reason is definitely how much room the chain data takes up, but also it is better to have your node dedicated to only Bitcoin services, and put unrelated things on a different device. The more things you install outside of Bitcoin services, the more attack vectors you introduce.

Start9 is my preference for a Bitcoin node for a couple reasons. First, because it is open source. Second, because the new update they are working on will add much more control over how you connect to your node remotely, and which can be controlled on a per-service basis. That way, I can expose just one service to clear-net, if I want, and everything else only accessible through Tor, or through a VPN. Third, because I like their built-in backup service.

Something to keep in mind.

Yes, everyone is absolutely right that "#Bitcoin doesn't need politicians."

However, politicians are more and more realizing that they need #Bitcoiners.

#Trump proved today that he absolutely has no clue about Bitcoin, and is completely out of touch with Bitcoiners, but he also proved by being there at all that "then they fight you" is not on his agenda, because he doesn't want to make enemies of people he wants voting for him.

Back in 2016, Trump was pandering to evangelicals for the same reason he is now pandering to Bitcoiners. He needs us. He made a lot of promises to evangelicals, not because he actually believed the same things they do, or held any common principles with them, but because he recognized that making them his enemy would lose him the election.

When he was in office, he enacted policies and appointed Supreme Court justices that evangelicals approved of. There was follow-through, even though he didn't share their principles. He very well may do the same for Bitcoiners, or he may just be making empty promises.

Either way, he is not trying to make enemies of us, and that is a good thing.

This line is the best summary of the speech:

"Have fun with your Bitcoin and your CrYPtO, and everything else that you're playing with."

He is not taking us seriously whatsoever. Just making a pathetic attempt to pander.

He has my vote... for worst speech of the conference.

He 100% has no clue about what Bitcoin is, or its significance.

What is dtan?

Spring browser looks like it has the option to use nsec bunker, but I get an error when I try.

Did it with Nostrudel. Mind blown.

Anyone out there able to tell me which clients support remote signing via #Amber, and how to set it up?

#AskNostr

Yeah, sorry but any new client is dead-on-arrival if it doesn't support NIP-07 at minimum, and preferably NIP-46 as well.

You really don't need to, if clients implement the outbox model correctly, and unlike Bitcoin, where every node needs to keep a copy of every single transaction in order to maintain censorship resistance, consensus, and full auditability of the supply, that is not the case for Nostr. We ONLY have the censorship resistance piece to worry about, and not every relay can store every user's notes, so being selective about the relays you post to is both wise and courteous.

One of the best things about Nostr is that you can personally host your own content privately, too. This way, even if all 5(or however many you use) of the relays you currently post to decided to ban you, you can simply change your public relays to somewhere else and rebroadcast your notes from your private relay. The reality is, even this is very unlikely to happen unless you really did something deserving of the ban such that all 5 relay operators banned you in quick succession.

Yes, and it seems the market has valued absolute privacy about 0.2% of what it has valued absolute scarcity and auditability.

Most seem to forget that the entire purpose of the separation of church and state is to protect the church from the state, and that seems to apply to both sides of the aisle.
