After a very productive day, settled in for an evening with the new Ninja Kamui anime.

I was pleasantly surprised by the combination of fierce action, cyberpunk and ninja-demons. Although the main character is very pathetic.

Have you reflected on what happened yet?

Was it a lack of intriguing content? A busy weekend of dev? A particularly gruesome hangover? There’s a story in there somewhere. P.S. Sorry for @Car’s loss

Created my own e-cash mint using ln bits last night. It was super Easy. Next step is to use eNuts wallet and help family and friends with on boarding.

No more blue wallet or breeze with its meh liquidity I can use eNuts off line to send sats around and cash out as needed.

I joined SN on 10 Dec 2022. I made 500k sats on 25 Feb 2024. A little more than 14 months to achieve this milestone. I guess I will take less than 14 months to reach a million sats, now that I know more or less the ins n outs of SN. Would I still be shitposting/providing V4V here 2 years from now? Always intriguing when you ponder about the unknown.

Cleaning up some old UTXO today, the lesson is ALWAYS remember to add labels for any on-chain transactions, your future self will really thank you for that.

And for the ones that you don't remember, use the LN washing machine is the way. 👀 #333907

the best combination I found from onchain to LN is Sparrow - Blotz - Blink / LSP nodes.

Onchain wise you can easily empty all the funds and set the fee in Sparrow.

LN wise Blink is the best receiver in this case.

the invoice lasts for 24 hours
no need to worry about inbound liquidity
the node is Blink instead of yours

But the downside is that it has a daily limit to withdraw if you didn't register the Blink account.

Then phone nodes like Zeus have risk - sometimes Boltz might fail to pay the invoice, also Boltz doesn't accept MPP invoices; and I don't understand why, even if you have a channel with Boltz, how come it still fails to pay? @DarthCoin

I would be happy to hear if you find a better combination for the onchain to LN ⚡️

10 sats \ 0 replies \ @DarthCoin 25 Feb freebie

or... post a "feature request" on their github to implement keysend payments. For those who already have a channel with them, will be much easier to swap out, using that common channel. https://github.com/BoltzExchange/boltz-backend/issues

Keysend is a powerful LN feature. Some resources here:

I used to pay a merchant using keysend through a channel we have in common. Is really fun: no invoices, no traces, no fees.

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @DarthCoin 25 Feb

even if you have a channel with Boltz

try from thunderhub, I think from Zeus is failing when you select a specific channel to send.

153 sats \ 1 reply \ @DarthCoin 25 Feb freebie

better combination for the onchain to LN?

Did you tried Walletano, CoinOS ?

Boltz doesn't accept MPP invoices;

oh that sucks. You will have to use each channel you want to "dry" with a separate payment to boltz.

Yes. Digital detox is important. You mentioned it to me, but in a different way, a few weeks ago. I heard about the addictive qualities of social media, but always thought it was exaggerated until I experienced it myself. I now keep limits on my engagement. It's refreshing and necessary, but it sucks when the snail is late.

I think it really affects our attention spans… beyond the impact of the blue light from screens and sleep disorders, studies around serotonin dependency / addiction are terrifying

30 sats \ 5 replies \ @ek 25 Feb freebie

I think we all can speak of first-hand experience regarding that, we just don't want to admit it.

Just like real addicts :)

I once said to a friend: "if you can't live a day without your phone, you're addicted." He then got really triggered by it. I felt like that just proved my point but I didn't mention it to not aggravate him more.

25 sats \ 4 replies \ @carlosfandango 25 Feb

I would say that proves a point with his defensiveness… and his short attention span!

30 sats \ 1 reply \ @ek 25 Feb freebie

Yeah, we're not really friends anymore for similar reasons and situations. He was the kind of person that I would blame to miss a point on purpose just to feel morally superior by arguing against the straw man if I had the balls to tell him that.

However, I once did say "I think that's a straw man argument" and he replied with "sorry that I'm not good in debating."

That was hilarious and very frustrating at the same time, lol.

Or you could say we're just "congratulations, you survived another year"-friends now.

I decided to get a little work done today and the first thing I did was SEO optimization of my WordPress blog. A lot of old posts appeared to be missing tags, keywords and linking to other texts, so I'm going to have a lot of fun for the next few hours.

One of the best things I have learned as a female nomad is that I plan my activities according to my circles, not some outside calendar or holidays ( generally I avoid exploring during those times. )

And you'd be amazed how productive you are if you plan things according to your own energy level instead of some outside calendars - your body isn't designed to work like a robot five days a week and from 9 to 5; you are a living human being with rhythms: when tired, you take a break; when full of energy, you do things! So simple.

I don't know how things work with men, but one tip I can give is to pay more attention to your partners, especially say/do less stupid things during certain times:) 👀

The art of stacking: being paid to learn. 👀🥁

I think the real treasure of SN is brain powers - with so many smart brains, yet many people are doing silly things to assmilk; seriously, think bigger - knowledge is priceless, and you can get to stack so many things other than sats. ( sats is a bonus )
