Looking into this a bit too. Funny how rising electricity prices create the inventive to get moving on energy.
I think solar only works if you live in the right place. Then its only available 1/3 of the day. A battery might help.
I see the sovereign energy ideal as completely unsolved so far.
Why did you pick these monero/litecoin pods? He's done heaps of other podcasts, the most recent being Nostrica.
I think I'm starting to understand his thesis more. Would love to hear a short summary though.
I also have 2 kids. It's a big change & I do miss my old life. But instead of dwelling on the past, it's better to just go with it in the present.
Hope you don't give up, & yes please talk to the councilor.

Working on it sir!
I was running a node but probably wasn't using enough liquidity.
I got a few forces closes during this years onchain fee spike. Also we're moving next year so for now I might wait a bit longer to try again.
One thing I think is worth waiting for is the ability to take the hot keys out & have more of a cold LN setup. This I'd be more interested in!
I'm still looking around for old S9's
I'd love to play around with one for this kind of stuff. Maybe even solo mine & hope for the best
In Australia most of the order books on hodlhodl, robosats are pretty thin. Looks like the USD & euro have the most.
Another way (which maxis might not agree with) is to do a few steps. If you can get into USDT first, then there are more options worldwide to buy BTC.
If there are any meetups in your area that might be a good place to find someone willing to sell you BTC for cash.
In large orders its still going to be difficult. I don't know what $100k in cash would look like but I'd imagine it would be bulky & the seller should probably verify the notes too.
