We've changed our mind about Custodial Wallets

With Blue wallet you can top up your lightning wallet with sats very easily. They call it refill. Convert your on-chain bitcoin from the same wallet into sats, or from any external source. Blue wallet also utilizes LNDHub and LNBits for it's node connectivity. 

LNDHub and LNBits both run on full nodes as I understand... with LNBits you can use it to create LNURLs I think? https://github.com/lnbits/lnbits/tree/main/lnbits/extensions/lnaddress

Easiest method for me to get non-KYC sats from fiat would be robosats. It forces you to use TOR basically as privacy is paramount. If revolut is available... that's a common payment method for sats. (not on-chain but LN).

There is a giant BTC symbol in the main HQ where there's like a crossroad of things you can do. It's actually pretty epic how much work they've put into this thing. I thought minecraft was for youngins... and I can see it is but I can also see the appeal of a huge sandbox with crazy potential for self growth. I wonder if the walmart or amazon giftcards are really purchaseable with sats... I wouldn't be surprised as the entire thing is truly a sat city.

 Very awesome timing for me and I imagine the planet too :D Thank you!

Absolutely incredible. I tried it out myself today earlier, first ever real attempted session at Minecraft. But I also had a friend along whom I brought on in an mission to onboard him into Bitcoin and to explain more about the potentials of hyperbitconiziation. Little did I know he was there to onboard *me* into Minecraft and so was one of your awesome mods @Satlantis !

I deposited $1 worth of sats via lightning, was given the url in-game, available to be copied easily and pasted into a browser. Sent some sats from my node to my ingame wallet and holy shit the game really changed then. I think today was easily one of the biggest birthpangs I have witnessed of TRUE Lightning integration done within a major video game. Nothing of the sort ENJIN were doing with Minecraft. This rendition of minecraft was really special and also felt like it could be quite an amazing learning experience too if catered for students learning Bitcoin.

My only worry was the guy going around with a kanye2024 clan that was basically just recruiting everyone... kinda raking in huge amount and just distributing it I guess like a mining pool while everyone else is solo lottery mining. All in all though I think this was the first time I have ever played MC with some spirit and I actually enjoyed it. I felt REALLY compelled to learn how to earn ingame currency which could be used for sats. That was a fun moment for sure which I thought I would never see.

Honestly, vibes of Ready Player One came to mind. We just need alot more players on the server at all times of the day! I mean ALOT more players... I was playing with 6 others and the server could hold 200 so yeah... this makes me think of other survivalism based games that could reign so strongly with LN integration.

Oh duh! Node Runner hah. 

Yeah ironically was at a friends house last night and we had the choice to watch Blade Runner 2047 on BD or the worst film ever made on YT. We went with YT :\ haha - Sorts my weekend viewing out though :)

Was wondering what shift+click does... now I know! :D Thank you for the welcoming sats btw !

Sorry chief, Don't get the reference sadly :(

Quick searches of tigs + blade + brother got me nothing heh. At first I thought it was a SoA reference.
