LND #7437 adds support for backing up just a single channel to a file.

Seeing stuff like this makes me chuckle and think how simple stuff like this is still getting added to the protocol

Shows we're still early!

One day we will tell the following generations how we lost coins because we didn't backup our channels often enough lol. Or that we used to transact onchain with 1sat/vB!

I'll look into it today. We got DOS'd last night but this happens normally too.

This was a regression. The submit button wasn't being disabled properly after submitting. Deploying a fix now.

This is the first year in recent memory that I'm not excited about the Bitcoin Magazine conference. Except for the 2021 El Salvador announcement, the past few have been pretty boring. The problem might be that I listen to most of the speakers who are featured pretty regularly elsewhere. I always check out a few videos that come out after the event, and maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised.

Agreed. There are a couple panels that I will likely stream but for the most part I am fairly disinterested. I thought about going this year, mainly because I have never been to Miami (which is odd, I have been to a bunch of cities in Florida) but not with Bitcoin at these tasty prices. I would rather stack another 10M sats than go to the conference.

I had the same thought. I have spent lots of time on the west coast of Florida, but I've never been to Miami. Every year I think about it, but never pull the trigger.

These type of conferences are boring and are meant only to make noise. Just a bunch of influencers talking same shit they talk on podcasts, without a REAL solution. Will bring some meaningless political figures, trying to fool people that politicians care about Bitcoin (they don't give a shit, they are there to take your fool vote).

For a total nocoiner, maybe these show conferences could give them some interest, but they will learn NOTHING from it.

The important ones are the hackathlons and workshops, those where people could see in real life Bitcoin solutions for their real problems and interact with developers and builders.

I see Adopting Bitcoin (in El Salvador) a better way presenting Bitcoin, even then, too much talking and less workshops, especially in local language, to really help those people to start understanding better what is Bitcoin and how to use it.

IMHO a Bitcoin conference must be ONLY with BTC/LN apps devs and integrators, solutions builders, to show the world, real use cases, real examples, real implementations and how could be done.
