Check @DarthCoins page for all the links. I spend hours reading the past days, was really worth it. By the way, all donated sats from this post including comments are forwarded to @DarthCoin! Thanks for all the content you created!
Thank you for reading. Really makes me more happy than all sats. I just want to help people to start using Bitcoin. many people are lost and don't know from where to start. So I listen them, took notes about what they are looking for, tested the solutions and then I wrote each guide. My 10+ years experience in Bitcoin helped me a lot writing these guides.

Thank you Darth!

You should go now and make video versions of the guides. A lot of work. But I suspect new generations don't know how to read and only watch tiktoks.
reply
Nope. Are plenty of video tutorials. Bitcoin needed written guides. Video tutorials are for lazy people, that can't read.
reply
Oh well it is true, if they are lazy to read, they don't deserve it.
reply
Exactly. Bitcoin is only for brave, not for the weak. Proof of Work.
reply
@DarthCoin let me know when you do make videos, would sponsor a POS Gen1 :)
reply
  1. Will never do video tutorials
  2. Will never take sponsors
  3. I do all this for Bitcoin (I mean not to earn sats).
My guides were written for my "padawans" (I have a lot of private people that I help them getting onboard). I start with them in private, but then I saw that more people need them. So I publish them on substack for the common good.

yes, I know, but a gift is a gift... and could have many connotations. I prefer my integrity.
reply
appreciate your work!

Any plans to ditch substack and make your own blog?
reply
I think I explained in the past why I use substack for my guides...
I could host them on my own servers, own domains, but I do not want that (yet). I manage several private domains, but those are private. Nothing related with "DarthCoin" on internet.
Substack is very easy to share and write newsletters. And I don't give a shit if tomorrow they will shut down. Are just some damn guides, that are already backed up on my drive.
When SN will create special subsection for these kind of things, I will move them to SN. Until then are just fine on substack.

Siggy wrote a nice and funny translation guide about me, did you read it? #147162
reply
Best translation guide ever! Also reading all the guides, the very best available thank you for sharing with the rest of us
reply
not yet, will do haha
Those articles are my entry point to share with new bitcoiners, I don't even need to write my owns, it has almost the same sense of humor than me and in the LN node section, I love the focus on "don't" built a node to route invoices, built a private node, use it, and then in the long long long run and when you know more about, maybe there... with a lot of capital try to run a public LN node.
reply
Exactly that. I like when more people take my guides and use them to teach other noobs. Exactly for that I wrote them, to be a base for others. I even encourage others to copy and put them on their own blogs, websites, translations etc. All my guides are free and open to anybody. I do not wave any copyright or crap like that.
What is important is that more people learn more stuff about Bitcoin.
reply
I will read and check it out @DarthCoin has alot of credibility thanks for the post!
reply
The first link is wrong. It has an additional "s". Other than that @DarthCoin is absolutely the best.
reply
Yes, absolutely reading.
reply
I spent months reading them and then reread it sometimes:) I would say it's the best Bitcoin guide out there - practical, fun and no big words!
reply
I haven't and I know. Thanks for the reminder.
