We just launched our landing page http://bitline.world/
We're building Bitcoin-backed credit lines (undercollateralized loans)
Problem Current Bitcoin-backed loan solutions are relying on overcollateralization e.g. 50% loan-to-value.
Solution We're building 99% loan-to-value loans that act as credit line for Bitcoiners. We take-on tremendous risk but plan to charge 1-3% per month interest to offset. We're also building a credit scoring engine that will pseudonymously keep track of good behavior so they can get better rates and terms.
Wanted to get feedback from fellow Bitcoiners about what we are building. Would you use such product?
reply
I would use it. How will you fund the loans and will there be any restrictions on use of proceeds, or is the product basically like a credit card / unsecured line of credit?

Working on my Informational BIP that suggests a set of terms to refer to transaction parts.

At work, I'm trying to get Linux running on a machine that has neither screen/keyboard, IPMI, nor LOM. It has lots of ethernet ports, so SSH is the only option, but I can't get SSH working. This is rather difficult, because I have to plug the drive into another computer to make any changes. It's a totally non-interactive process.
reply
Does your machine have a serial port? If you are building the kernel yourself, you can enable the serial console and connect with a terminal program from another computer, like the cavemen used to. Then get ssh working from there without messing around with moving the drive around.
reply
The machine has a serial port, though I haven't figured out how to enable a TTY on that port. But I got SSH working today, so now I'm focused on other more pressing issues for this machine. But I'll have to revisit the serial port eventually, because that'll be needed in case SSH fails.

im still streamlining my non-fiat superchat system for my livestreams, wish I knew more so i wouldn't have to be blindly wandering through code i dont understand. The payment aspect is easy because it just uses btcpayserver. If i could make this a plugin for them and have everything all in one place that would be cool but I'm not very smart. It does work though. Just isn't a thing that can be deployed in one go which is what would be required to normalise it among other streamers

You might want to check lnbits to see if there's something in there that already accomplishes part of what you're trying to do.
reply
started with options like that, not suitable, thanks for the suggestion
reply
I'm moving, bleh. Continuing nostr stuff and hiring related stuff too.
reply
I did a work related talk where the listeners were like "that's a really hard problem, that's close to impossible" and I was like "yes, I know, here's the plan".

Just set up a start9, gotta upgrade the fans for the s9's. Need to flash the seed signer software, gotta flash brains os on one of the asics, gotta learn how to import my ghost blog to the node, will hopefully create a sats marketplace on nostr with ghost btc pay and lnbits.
Not sure what people would buy for sats tho......
maybe limited edition nostr badges, relay access, tasks from a microlancer?
Any ideas? It would be cool to see a sat marketplaces develop to enhance nostr, bitcoin gaming, bitcoin rewards by giving the earners places to spend their 50 sats.

I installing BTC pay server and I am trying to figure out how to fork or make and add-on for BTC pay server so that when a successful lightning network payment happens, a custom PHP code is executed. I would like to know if this is possible or someone has done something similar.
