Very good travel report ! Thanks for it.
If you have better insights into why Bitcoin payments failed on the island, or how they continue to flourish underground, then please let me know
I think is only a matter of education. If more people get well educated into how to use Bitcoin and what really is, it will be a boom in accepting.
Even those that have BTC stickers on the doors maybe they get it from a local broker / intermediary or something without even explaining them properly.
You can't love only cats or dogs.
That's like saying you love only one child, if you have 2 or more.
I think the reason some people have only cats or only dogs is because other circumstances that do not depend on the amount of affection for one or another.
If you can, you should have both. Each one is giving back a specific affection.
Interesting article.
I notice that is not mentioning any details about using public and private nodes.
Also using a public node as a decoy, like a personal LSP for multiple private nodes.
Also not mentioning about using 0-conf channels, really underrated by many people and that cannot leave any trace onchain.
There are many ways to add more privacy when using LN and I do not understand why these articles are focusing ONLY on public nodes.
Public nodes are for public routing, not to keep your node private. That's why are named PUBLIC like public blockchain.
And I will add again some diagrams in addition:
We are now using whitenoise app for private comms, one group for each trade so everyone is on the same page.
very good!
@AGORA I will ask here first before posting the offer in AGORA.
Are you able to handle an escrow service for exchanging forked coins for BTC ?
I would like to offer from now ALL my new forked coins (idk how they will be named) for more BTC.
P2P, using agora as escrow, in private or anonymous.
Did you think about scenario ? Soon we will have 2 forks and people will get crazy...
good reminder.
Important is the memory remained behind you, what you leave behind. And a stone house will remain for many years. Your image will fade away but what you built remains and is a prove of your work that nobody can contest it.
LOL boomers can make techno music in their own yard on a garbage bin !
Please don't zap me, zap the boomer !
Show me what you build with your bare hands and then we can talk.
This cabin is not for my wife. Is for me. Only. That you can never understand.
And btw, I don't give a fuck about your useless opinion.
I dare you to build the same rubble with your bare hands. Let's see how capable you are.
And btw, I don't even want any wife to be around. That place is only for me...
Until then... STFU
so why dare others if you cannot handle others dares?
If you love the decisions you made in your life, don't dare others to do the same.
I dare you to go back in time, in 2010-2012 and mine BTC with CPU/GPU... as I did. That was the decision I made. So I challenge you to do the same decision.
And not for the fiat value (meaningless) but for the experience of being early in something that change the entire world.
Like the 2nd fire discovery...

Ask yourself: why you didn't joined Bitcoin in 2009-2010-2012 or even 2015 ?
Don't take me wrong, I do not want to brag for my work on this experimental house in the mountains. In the end is just an experiment, mostly to see how far I can go with this idea of building myself a homestead place, without any "engineered" plans. Just what my gut tells me.
Yes, many engineers will jump to say that what am I doing is wrong and can fall over me. But... should I care? If I die with the roof falling over me I will die happy that I tried.
And this is what engineers don't want you to know: trying is the ultimate experience you have in your miserable life. Trying to free yourself and demonstrate to the rest of the world that you can do it.
If I fail, I fail, so be it. Who cares?
Unfortunately some users are stuck in using only Phoenix wallet or run a small public routing node and will never know all the possibilities and features of LN.
