So, are those like Fountain where you can receive sats for listening and support the podcast by paying by the minute using your Alby Hub wallet?

Even IF that was a possibility, the user experience would be pretty rough, since the node it is attached to would not be online 24/7. Node-on-a-phone solutions suffer from mobile operating systems aggressively killing background processes.

A remote LND instance can be a funding source? The only version I know of that uses an existing LND node as a funding source is by installing nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm Hub on your Start9 or Umbrel node, but in that case it would be using the local LND instance as the funding source, not a remote one.

Or rather, as an interface for a particular wallet hosted on your Start9 or Umbrel node.

Yes, but when you do this, you are NOT using Zeus's self-custody node - on - the - phone. You are essentially just using Zeus as a mobile interface for your Umbrel or Start9 node.

We have been talking about trying to use the node-on-a-phone option from Zeus with Alby Hub. To my knowledge, there is no way to do this.

So... That may improve your self-custodial Zeus wallet/node's liquidity, but it doesn't do anything to enable Alby Hub's features for your Zeus wallet/node.

Not that I am aware of.

Depends on what version you are using. The cloud-hosted version is its own node. The one you can install on your Start9 or Umbrel requires you to be running an LND node that it will use for liquidity.

I think the point was to do it using Zeus's self custody service WITHOUT having to run a node separately.

Some of us already run lightning nodes at home (Start9 or Umbrel) and would like to use it as our daily driver for zaps, as well as host wallets with little fuss for our family, who aren't interested in learning how to do self-custody lightning for themselves.

Also, has nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5 solved offline receiving for their node-on-the-phone option?

Alby Hub, even in the cloud, lets you do all of the above very easily. I don't think Zeus currently has any way to be an Uncle Jim for your family.

"They were both created by God."

Not so much. Jesus is fully man and fully God, co-eternal with the Father. His humanity had a starting point, but his divinity does not.

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men." John 1:1-4

So, Adam cannot be Jesus' brother, because Jesus is Adam's creator, which also explains one reason Jesus is more important than Adam. The fact that Jesus willingly took on himself the sins of his people in order to redeem them, while Adam only passed his sin on to his posterity is another massive reason.

I think a good portion of those questions can be answered by Romans 5:12-19.

OK, got it. But I mean... That's a 100% ripoff, down to the color of the text and location of the device name.

Wait... So this is the BTClock?

Made by the same dude as the SeedSigner?

How can anyone see this as anything other than a spiteful ripoff of the BlockClock, just to be a jerk?

Not that nostr:npub1az9xj85cmxv8e9j9y80lvqp97crsqdu2fpu3srwthd99qfu9qsgstam8y8 may not also be a jerk, but it definitely seems like this guy 100% is, and is intentionally rubbing it in NVK's face.

I always enjoy being lectured about "morals" from folks with zero objective standard of morality.

Could not agree more! This prolonged adolescence BS really needs to stop.

I married young by a lot of folks' standards at age 21 and it was the best decision I ever made. My wife and I have three daughters and the first one arrived just before our two-year anniversary. We would have loved to have more, but she had particularly difficult pregnancies. Now I look forward to having lots of grandkids in my 40s, instead of having just barely started a family.

Enough of my subjective experience, though. Objectively, we are in our prime-years for producing children in our 20s. That is by design.

Historic/Covenantal Premil, actually. That said, I hold it with a very open hand and have a lot of agreement with certain aspects of both the amil and postmil views.

Using the connection string given in the wallet set up, it will connect to the wallet you just set up on your node and anything sent to that Alby Lightning address will go to that new wallet, too.

As part of the wallet set up, it should prompt her to log into Alby and connect her account with the NWC connection string.

Yes, that is one of it's greatest features.

I have my wife and daughters all set up with their own wallets on my Alby Hub.

No, Bitcoin is the exact opposite of the mark of the beast.

The mark is meant to restrict freedom of exchange, and has centralized control as a required feature. No one is able to transact unless they submit to that central authority.

#Bitcoin, on the other hand, is entirely permissionless and has no centralized authority over it; no one we must bow the knee to in order to use it whatsoever.

But too many dispensationals have this idea stuck in their heads that any worldwide digital currency is either the mark of the beast itself or is paving the way for it. They're also usually doomer gold-bugs. They can hfsp.

Oh, I know it's certainly possible we stay above $100k in the next bear. I just like setting my expectations lower and being pleasantly surprised to the upside.

Nah, bro. $58k will be the 2026 bottom.

No. They are talking about their old custodial wallets. You will still be able to self-host your Alby Hub for free, and connect it with the Alby Browser extension and Alby Go.

It's also built into #Amethyst

nostr:npub1hte85nxymfyez0nlmmxf287nh9cujfuetxhk9vptwcdqg0pn8pxqxasw3d did I hear you have a #Minecraft server up and running now?

We should do a dual-stream sometime.

So glad I have the day off today. Would not have been able to get anything done.

This chat episode starts out with a discussion about whether #Bitcoin is apolitical money. Here's how I would frame it.

Bitcoin is absolutely apolitical money, because no politician or civil government can control it. It is rules without rulers by design.

However, it is also intensely political money, because certain political ideologies will see the above as its crowning feature, while others will view it as its most pernicious and dangerous bug.
