🚀 TollGate pay-as-you-go internet access on open networks. Powered by Cashu.
The TollGate WiFi-router runs a Nostr relay + clients for handling payments. The TollGate app pays for internet-access with eCash over nostr!

The flow:
- User taps connect (connect button will be automated)
- Tollgate App suggests tollgates to connect to (Android notification)
- User taps connect
- User taps sign-in
- The app handles payment and prevents captive portal from opening
Unfortunately some Android OS level restrictions requires quite some taps to connect 😕.

neat the toilet paper is colourful now
must be a new EU regulation, how I love my capless bottles that leak all the time
merci lagarde
I noticed few people use emoji to trigger zaps, last night I didn't receive any. nostr:nprofile1qqsdpyh6fsa928qpprhu7xzv9pclzdp4xyhvw4erhm23ke0jqqgcwlcpr9mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctv9ud6z2l7 are you available for troubleshooting? I zap you then I guess we could test if it works. Wallet is connected to Amethyst and I got push notification enabled too.
haven't seen this on nostr tbh
I dont have a wallet connected, so my zaps go to npub . cash
thanks for the tag, but maybe I am not the best kitty to test this with
the problem with normies is that they are put off by volatility (they still think in terms of selling Bitcoin for USD like nostr:nprofile1qqsp4lsvwn3aw7zwh2f6tcl6249xa6cpj2x3yuu6azaysvncdqywxmgprpmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctvq9n8wumn8ghj7enfd36x2u3wdehhxarj9emkjmn99ah8qatzx9e8gmr3vdsnsu3kv96hjcthx4hr26pnds6ngv3jv3kngumj0y6kg7nxv4jngd3exen8zefcwvm8zem4v34hxdmydf6xvuelvfex7ctyvdshxapaw3e82egpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejs5mzk3a posted today).
otherwise I agree - would be best if everyone was at level where they could just stay humble and stack sats
It is only volatile in comparison to the fiat shitshow, normies need to think more like sovreign users instead of consumers conditioned to seek a 'safe' 3-5% consistent ROI on their 'investment'... like the BlackRock and co ETF this feels like a psyop to get people to ignore the mamouth in the room. Bitcoin is the money we can use to forge a new economic paradigm.
I am only ranting my thoughts here Uncle
all the best to them, the partnership, and AI agent fuckery, hope they bring those millions of USDT holders on Tron to move to LN
lol
why not leave them donuts and draino like we do with Santa?
endgame
this is how the US Dollar and company (Fed) get to control lightning and monitor p2p payments. It is about control.
Bitcoin doesn't need a stablecoin, nor does lightning. Normies dont need to jump through a 'dencentralised' digital dollar to get to holding and transacting satoshis as peers.

last time I tried to use it to help me improve some code I spent longer telling it it was hallucinating npm packages, functions within the my code, and not providing useful input.
sure, I wasn't using the latest model, etc.. but aside from straight forward actions (i.e. make me a pretty front end)
I see many applications for AI, translation and internalization as well biomedical research. excites me.... but for programming more serious applications I rather have a senior dev who knows the code and can reason around it.

but yes, we can say that the mempool has healed from the ordinal spam attack
fuck the machine, I write the code that runs on it (sometimes)
never did myself, but I am curious...
what happened during your nut accident?
you could... LN in more sats into ecash to bring the amount above what is needed to pay an LN out to your wallet, but fees are not easily calculated so you may end up with more 'dust' (been there myself)
.. or just leave it there, as a goodbye gift for the mint that you just used. The sats are still in the mints LN liquidity, no sats are lost by the mint.
... or you can send them to me ;)

MT Gox is still keeping my Bitcorns safe...
I call it the forced HODL
the toils will be worth the effort once the exit is taken, opting out of not just the mines but also the fiat mindset and bullshittery. You can see the light coming from the entrance of the mines, and the distance pains you as your struggle to clear those coals for the unseen masters. Know this, at least you see the light. You are looking up, standing upright and know that there is an exit, whilst the others are hunched over with their face in coal dust with a fake smile and in profound despair.
You are getting there Owen, keep mining towards the light.
