I feel like I can't be happy no matter what I try.

I don't feel I have anyone IRL that I can say that to.

And it's eating me up inside.

Spend less time trying to please others, they'll always just want more from you.

If you can't please everyone, just please yourself, at least that way one person's happy.

I hear ya. Keep your chin up and just remind yourself, you're not supposed to have it all figured out, you're doing just fine. 👊

tomorrow’s AMA with Dhruv Bansal at Unchained is going to be a good one.

A nice feature would be to have a prominent notice on the main page whenever AMAs are happening. This would allow us to prepare some good questions in advance.

I wonder what will happen if Darth will not be around to kick everybody asses, being controversial ? Everybody will agree with everybody and all will just comply with all gov rules...

Darth will always be that "controversial guy", the beacon of hope and light that will wake you up to reality. People still do not want to learn from the past, so I must remember them.

Well, I'm pretty sure the odds of a comment thread (especially on a link with no other content) getting that large without you are slim, for starters.

As someone who knows way too little on that topic, I've gotten a lot out of reading everyone's thoughts (and that's the case in almost any thread where there's a lot of back and forth; I rarely post to the "core" channels like Lightning and BTC, but I lurk and read a lot). I suspect I'm not the only one.

Good morning my fellow friends!!! The middle of the week is here and it's time to check if we are doing great with our weekly goals, if we're not getting our desired results then let's tweak or reinforce our mentality that we can accomplish it and get to it. Remember to no half-ass it, we've got to give it our absolute best, one day at a time, one goal at a time to reach our final one, you've got this my friend, I believe in you and in what you do, you're important and what you do matters, never forget that!! I wish you an amazing day, may it be fill with success and lots of productivity, be well and stay frosty my good friend!!

In an interview with CNBC shared online on April 3, Wood described BTC as both a risk-on and risk-off investment. — cointelegraph.com

Bitcoin is hedge against ‘horrible’ gov’t fiscal policy.

There are currency devaluations taking place that people are not talking about.

A hedge against devaluation, a hedge against a loss of purchasing power and wealth.

Lightning question please: Does sending onchain from Phoenix etc reduce inbound liquidity by the amount sent as the channel UTXO now has less funds in it, or does something else happen?

20 sats \ 1 reply \ @ek 3 Apr

You can't reduce inbound liquidity since these sats aren't considered to be yours. You can only spend your outbound liquidity which should be equal to your wallet balance? Good question though.

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @chungkingexpress 4 Apr

Just tried this out. Sent to onchain but my liquidity balance has stayed the same. Any ideas?

0 sats \ 4 replies \ @DarthCoin 3 Apr

It's a swap out from your channel and should not reduce your channel capacity.

10 sats \ 3 replies \ @chungkingexpress 3 Apr

Thanks. What does the onchain footprint look for this?

E.g. Doxed / KYC Coins -> Phoenix pay to onchain -> Clean coins?

72 sats \ 2 replies \ @DarthCoin 3 Apr

It will be no trace. Only IF ACINQ is not "the good guy". But you should always use the 3 levels stash as I described in this guide: https://darth-coin.github.io/beginner/be-your-own-bank-en.html

Or you can use the ISM ("Infrastructure Spending machine"). Here I wrote a guide about that using Blixt (you can use whatever other LN wallet)

losing faith in the lightning network

That means you didn't read anything about LN. Did you read all my guides ?

127 sats \ 1 reply \ @k00b 3 Apr

A post about it would be great! I'm yet to see someone aggregate and distill all the sentiment about it.

what is all of the talk about developers losing faith in the lightning network?

They thought it'd be easier than it is to scale bitcoin and instead of blaming themselves they're blaming a protocol.

Add to it that the lightning implementation with the biggest developer count is focused on taproot assets rather than moving the generic protocol forward. This could be to lightning's benefit, but it has slowed its development down for the time being.

The good ol' classic not my fault it's someone elses tactic... might be my number one pet peeve lol!

I'll definitely look into this more and see if I can put together some sort of aggregate post that looks at if from all sides. Since it is something that I keep seeing brought up might as well accumulate and disseminate what all is going on for the masses!

Hello, are there any stackers that use the BitcoinMagazine app??🤔🤔 I have been using it for the last 3 months, and every time I got 500SAT or more I immediately withdraw it to my muun. These last few weeks I haven't been able to withdraw to my wallet... Is there anyone else with this problem??

0 sats \ 1 reply \ @oliverweiss 3 Apr

Can you still log into the app? The app is not working for me anymore since idk two months, I can’t get through the OTP verification.

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @FallingD02 3 Apr

If it works normally, even I had just withdrawn 500 sats and now that I have the amount again, it has given me problems, I don't know if I increased the Withdrawal limit?

● Common people: Life is a difficult journey.

● Charles Dickens: "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way - in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only."

This phrase is from the famous opening paragraph of Charles Dickens' novel, A Tale of Two Cities

It's got some valid use cases (had it sort and analyze some qualitative data yesterday, and it did very well). I think part of the problem is people relying on it for things it can't yet do, even though it's not meant to do them.

I really don't trust it, I was skeptical about using it, a friend suggested it to me and I said "ok, let's try it", I must admit that it was quite useful to me, a couple of months ago it helped me carry out a SWOT analysis and value proposition of my business.
