#RecklessApotheosis is a Miner & Lightning routing node aiming to help connect the world! Follow us on TG for real-time updates: http://t.me/RecklessNode

Today Reckless Systems and nostr:nprofile1qqs0vzw43dp9x3v8drvm4udj326dld0ku6gdnxajwcxg8h36ssxrags952hav are proud to announce a platform we hope will forever change the interactions between education, bridging the gap in economic education in schools and the digital future of currency!

If you are interested in an inexpensive miner where every purchase simultaneously supports Bitcoin education around the world, that will be the first ever fully documented Bitcoin ASIC on the market, and a handsome art piece to put on your desk, please take a look at our story and consider backing our campaign!

Good morning from Lugano's Plan B Forum everyone! If you're here for the conference I'm here with my wife and would love to say hi to another pleb miner, noderunner, educator or Bitcoin enthusiast!

Hello all from NABS! If you'll be in Dallas this week send me a message and I'd love to meet you at the Summit! I'm volunteering as a morning usher both days, but will be free in the afternoons and evenings. Stop by and say hello!

We received an awesome delivery today of 54,000 bzm2 ASICs! We are going to he launching both a tremendously exciting "first ever" miner as well as a larger model that we will be launching a crowd funding campaign for soon! We can't wait to show you all what we have cooking!

Driving to Vancouver, Canada where I'll be speaking on a panel about teaching Bitcoin to high schoolers. Stopped for breakfast in the middle of nowhere literally at a restaurant called The Rusty Tractor and across from the bar with country music playing is an otherwise unassuming ATM with one notable difference. Gradually, then suddenly, we will get there! First the ATM, then the cashier, then everywhere! Hope to see you in Vancouver for the nostr:nprofile1qqs0vzw43dp9x3v8drvm4udj326dld0ku6gdnxajwcxg8h36ssxragsprdmhxue69uhkzmrvv4ek7tngv93rxumfw3ax2m3wv3jj7qgewaehxw309akxjemgw3hxjmn8wfjkccte9e3k7mf0jzjm6m Unconference and nostr:nprofile1qqstwg3ce6m77d2876vfwxm4ew4qk5cplzrfpx7jln9qj2mf3clkazcpr3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuenjv93hgctvd9ax2epwdejhgtcprpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumrwwpex77re9ehhyee0hx2k4m Conference!

Had an absolutely brilliant time working with the Cholla Inc. and Cipher Mining teams, exploring the cutting edge of mining technology, and creating strategies for the next generation of Bitcoin mining! Can't wait for the world to see what's cooking! thanks for the awesome insights Gideon O. Powell 🏴‍☠️ and Christopher Totin! and it awesome working with you Brad Cuddy 🏴‍☠️ and Robert Wittmeyer!

Happy Independence Day everyone! For Americans, remember why our liberty was won, & how costly was the fight. For the rest of the world remember that Independence from financial oppression isn't a uniquely American opportunity, & Bitcoin will achieve what was begun so long ago!

Man, launched the Geyser Campaign for our MiPrimer Light Node before leaving the school today, and by the time we were home, it had been funded to be live! That's so awesome, I didn't expect Geyser to be this easy to use. https://geyser.fund/project/abe3/posts/view/4583

As the school year comes to a close, our My First Bitcoin class celebrates the graduation of 9 students this year, and this is our first cohort with adult graduates! It is so gratifying to have so many students voluntarily see this class through all the way to the end, and eyes be opened to a future antifragile economy that is free from fiat and State interference in the honesty of our money. Proverbs 11:1 is the biblical principal behind Bitcoin's importance in our society and why sound financial education is so important to a generation that is being deprived of it, and sold a basket of lies about inflation, instant gratification, debt, and compound interest. Summer will be relaxing, but I can't wait to start up our next class in the Fall!

Happy 15th Bitcoin Pizza Day. In 2010 Laszlo paid 10k Bitcoin for two Papa Johns pizzas! Today, that purchase is nearly the same as the entire Market Cap of Papa Johns the corporation! 🤯 It's valuable to remember that every decision we make has an opportunity cost. Some are greater than others and although it doesn't pay to regret past decisions, it does pay to use them to inform your next ones! Spend your time and your sats wisely. That pizza you ate in 2010 was billion dollar pizza, and the pizza you eat today may be billion dollar pizza 15 years from now!

RecklessApotheosis had the good fortune to visit Abundant Mines this last week and tour one of their facilities and to have a great chat about Lightning and Mining integration with their team and with Noah from OpenNode. We have had a channel with OpenNode for 2 years now, and are excited about the inevitable convergence of Bitcoin mining and layer 2 networks!

This is a really promising novel hardware wallet approach that is looking for feedback. Definitely take a look and fill out the form!

Ha, the Abundant Mines guys are great! I've worked with a few of them for years, before they were Abundant Mines. I used to drive down once a month to manage my rigs there!

I'd love to work with Block/Spiral/Proto on the MDK, Bitkey, or LN PoS adoption! I have experience working with a lot of the team on the old Blockscale ASICs. It'd be great to have a conversation with you folks again to see what you're up to and where a former Intel guy could contribute to the future globally decentralized world reserve currency!

Setting up the miner in the school gym to heat it for the winter, and the proceeds going directly to the school's Start9 Node, to be used for our My First Bitcoin class' circular economy using Lightning! The Future is Bright!

Who wants to play with my Demon Kindama...?

I know we've gone a while between weekly updates. So here's our largest routing week ever: a complete person! Our node has grown by one amazing channel! And we couldn't be more pleased!

Happy #SatStackerSunday, and happy Father's Day to all those noderunning Dads out there! This week we routed 191m sats across only 1,022 transactions!!! We lost 1 channel, and gained 2 this week. Remember, you can always open up a channel to #RecklessApotheosis and we'll refund the first 300 sats of your opening fees and give you 0/0 routing fees for 30 days! Stay reckless and happy routing!

It is with incredible pride that we introduce you to the LCS Lions 2023 #BitcoinDiploma graduating class! Who we think to be the first graduates in the United States, thank you Dalia, Adam, Mads, John, and everyone else from My First Bitcoin who helped us make this amazing class a reality!

Happy #SatStackerSunday! What a mempool eh folks? I think Plebnet Noderunnings reached a new ATH for messages sent in a single day! As both heavily involved in the Bitcoin Mining arena as well as Lightning, RecklessApotheosis is crazy excited as well as mildly concerned over the number of transactions being mined every block! We had a slow routing week, only growing by a single channel, but at least we didn't lose any for the second week running! Which, given the painful FC fees people are reporting, we are hugely blessed to have escaped so far! Routing slowed way down, likely due to de-risking by other routing nodes and a reduction in global rebalances, also the reduction in newly opened channels resulted in a reduction of local balancing of new channels. We only routed 65m sats over 515 transactions, but hey, no closures! So I'm counting this as a win! Also we're planning a Plebnet meetup on Thursday the 18th in Miami, more details to follow hopefully! Remember, you can always open up a channel to #RecklessApotheosis (should you dare) and we'll refund the first 300 sats of your opening fees and give you 0/0 routing fees for 30 days! Stay reckless and happy routing!

Happy #SatStackerSunday! We finally had a great routing week again, RecklessApotheosis lost 2 channels but gained 7! So it should come as no surprise that we finally routed over 100m sats (across over 700 transactions) for the first time in ages! Remember, you can always open up a channel to #RecklessApotheosis and we'll refund the first 300 sats of your opening fees and give you 0/0 routing fees for 30 days! Stay reckless and happy routing!

Happy #SatStackerSunday! RecklessApotheosis lost 2 channels this week and only gained 1. It was a slow week, especially compared with DeltaGap, only routing 573 transactions this week worth 72m sats. Slow weeks are good weeks to pick up new reading material and sharpen your perspecitve! This week we got the awesome SoftWar thesis by Jason Lowery! Remember, you can always open up a channel to #RecklessApotheosis and we'll refund the first 300 sats of your opening fees and give you 0/0 routing fees for 30 days! Stay reckless and happy routing!

Happy #SatStackerSunday! RecklessApotheosis lost 3 channels again this week but gained 7! It's been yet another hard week for a lot of noderunners with a clogged mempool, expensive force closures, and chatoic macroeconomic times! We routed a blidtering 1,802 transactions this week weighing in at 97m sats! Almost double the transactions last week, and significantly higher revenues. Which was important this week as we had to CPFP two transactions twice to get them to open, and the FCs we had this week put us at our first net negative month since reopening RecklessApotheosis! Ouch, but it's still a pleasure to be routing so many transactions and to be a member of such an incredible community! Remember, you can always open up a channel to #RecklessApotheosis and we'll refund the first 300 sats of your opening fees and give you 0/0 routing fees for 30 days! Stay reckless and happy routing!

Received my #[0] Entropia 2.0 Seed Word pills! Having a relaxing time "pill popping" with my son during lunch and my work meetings, definitely recommend all true Toxic Maxis to proudly display these on your Bitcoin Books shelve next to you Block Clock counting down to the end of the fiat extortion system!
