One thing I hate being in the city is fkn rats. Didn’t care for them until they started destroying our sht.
Energy is the base layer of human existence. Money is just a byproduct. #bitcoin

Desktop OS is a shitcoin
Things I've found useful (but not necessary) to learn while being a node runner:
- Networking tools
- Unix/shell terminal commands
- Bash scripting
- Good net sec
I'll share what I can as I progress. One thing I'd like to get into is doing penetration testing on our nodes.
Never enough
Si estuviera en PR me uniría a esto.
I would be so into this.
If you’re overwhelmed and worried about a situation, write down everything you’re worried about then cross off the things you cannot control and just work on things that you can control.
Not to mention #nostr
Gm! Grateful to be alive and witnessing such an important time in history #bitcoin

Can someone explain to me why this keeps talking to bugsnag? #asknostr
Selfhosting is a beautiful thing
Now reinitializing after disabling analytics and using my own electrum server (much better)
Connections now reduced to
My node
Bugsnag
Bitstamp
Eventhough I disabled analytics? I definitely don't know how any of this works...

For shits and giggles lets look at Bluewallet's connections and try and see what each of them are used for...
Busgsnag is for real user and error monitoring. I suppose this is a diagnostics service for analytics.
bitcoin.lukechilds.co looks to be Luke's electrum server, which is set by default.
Bitstamp is a crypto exchange that is pricing info
More electrum servers?:
mainnet.foundationdevices.com
amazonaws.com
electrum1.bluewallet.io
ssd.jhoenicke.de
Playing around with python and doing mempool data analysis on your own node. Now am I tripping or is that an avg fee of 2btc ?? I gotta be reading this wrong.
import requests
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
# Get the latest address from the Mempool.Space API
url = "http://yournode.local:3006/api/v1/mining/blocks/fees/1w"
response = requests.get(url)
data = response.json()
avg_fee = []
for i in range(len(data)):
avg_fee.append(data[i]['avgFees'])
df = pd.DataFrame(data)
plt.plot(df["avgHeight"], df["avgFees"]*1e-8)
plt.xlabel('Block')
plt.ylabel('Avg Fees [BTC]')
plt.show()
When downlaoding a file remember to verify its signature
