Learn by heart the 12-words seed?
where can I find the bitcoin halving best meme? like one mentionning tx fees going off the chart thanks to the runes protocol? ;-)
Is StartOS a better option? that's the distribution one shall install to build a start9 server, right?
Is start9 beter than umbrel? I mean I went for umbrel becasue it seemed to be the easier way into running my own node. Umbrel or Start9 pros and cons? Will look into it
I've set-up my umbrel on a B-Max mini-PC $120 https://www.amazon.com/Bmax-B3-Processor-Desktop-Computer/dp/B0CT84R6R2/ref=sr_1_5?sr=8-5, with a 1 TB SSD installed under the sliding cover. $66 https://www.amazon.com/PNY-CS900-Internal-Solid-State/dp/B07Y5VDNT9/ref=sr_1_1?sr=8-1.
I've installed Ubuntu and umbrel on the 256GB SSD, and moved the bitcoin blocks on the 1To second drive. It runs smooth, it's silent, and power efficient.
It's a DIY node for less than $200.
Thanks for the encouragement:-) 66 days is quite a bit of a time. Where does the figure come from?
I bet it takes lower than 66 days for an ex-smoker to re-internalize the habit of smoking!?! ;-) but I guess we're more talking about addiction here, rather than habit
I try to stick to the at least one post a day routine, trying to keep the streak going as I'm writing this post :)
There is so much great content that I don't open topics. Just reply to the existing ones.
One account to get your salary, purchase stuff... And a second account on Revolut where you transfer Fiat money to buy Bitcoin!
Inspiring story. What would be your key takeaways?
- Parties rather than Bitcoin meetups?
- Loud minorities can create change? aka bitcoiners are changing the world?
- Adoption is spreading? Ppl understand their local currency can't compete against the USD dollar (or British pound)
Thanks for sharing those inspiring insights! Are the witsanders aware they're also having an impact on the green transition, adopting Bitcoin is good for the environment, promoting renewable energy?
another thing. When I recovered my LN channels after I had to set-up my node new (after umbrel reinstall) it forced closed my channels with 1ML and Acinq. Leaving me with 3 out of 7 channels, now only one left up and running
hey just reporting that I am unable to connect my Zeus wallet to my Umbrel LN node, after recovery. Nothing haqppens when scanning the QR code. Also The LNNode address is different than it used to b. so do I have to remove the previously configured connection in my Zeus wallet?
