For #4 -- RoboSats ... even taking an existing order from a Seller requires you to have sats -- for the taker bond. The amount of sats is a small amount ... like 3% of the trade amount, but a buyer without any sats yet cannot do any trade, buy or sell, on RoboSats.
The RoboSats Telegram shows traders not being able to use the default ("legacy") hosted channel on SBW to pay the RoboSats bond. Not sure if that problem occurs or not with the other hosted channel providers that you listed, but wanted to point that out.
indeed, sorry, my mistake.
SBW is dead afaik. The main dev has decided to halt the project and shut his node down.
This is evidenced by the fact that https://sbw.app no longer has a valid SSL cert.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
There are couple interesting forks, like https://github.com/standardsats/wallet (https://standardsats.github.io/)
I'm familiar, I've actually got it installed. It's pretty neat. Most users are probably better off just trying out norma lightning wallets (like Phoenix) first imo.
no longer has a valid SSL cert.
LOL, I am so scared to access a text webpage without SSL cert... damn it man, is just text, nothing to worry. Yes, is a bad thing but is not the end of the world for that.
The main dev has decided to halt the project and shut his node down.
Yes, indeed, but, it is FOSS and is already forked and will be maintained. Why don't you fork it anyway? Why complain that the dev is not maintaining it anymore? As I said: his HC node is already replaced by others. SBW can run without his dev or node.
I am suggesting making a thread sharing all the tips and hacks. Easier to "collect" them 😂
I like to participate in daily threads with more practical posts instead of just saying GM and hello... :)
buhuhu so scary that warning... Is going to steal all your bitcoins now. Is just a damn fucking text webpage with an expired SSL cert. What is so big deal for you people? You can read it anyways.
When your driver "license" expire, are you going to just stay at home or use a taxi, because you think that you are not able to drive a car or you just drive your car and don't give a shit about the expired license paper shit?
Wait, you're a fan of HC?
I thought we think of all kinds Lightning infrastructure that is not meant to be permanent as a little "eeehhhh 🤷🏻♀️😬"?
I am fan only of freedom. I am not a fan of HC, but we should use all LN innovations for each occasion, with the feature is needed. Don't focus only one one app or feature. Use them all for specific situations.
Tip of the day!Tip of the day!
How to buy sats as a nocoiner that just started from zero.How to buy sats as a nocoiner that just started from zero.
Today we are going to use SBW wallet. Yes is a very simple, noob friendly wallet, non-custodial and super fast to onboard.
Yes, SBW is using hosted channels (HC) for better liquidity (custodials, semi-trusted) but also user can open regular LN channels. HCs are good for fast onboarding new users, that have ZERO sats to open channels, so hard for them to start to use a fully non-custodial LN wallet. Small steps first...
Done! Now you are a bitcoiner and not a nocoiner anymore!
