Reaching 100k goal! \ stacker news ~bitcoin

523 sats \ 55 comments \ @Satosora 9 Jun bitcoin

I am almost at 100k. I believe by the end of the night, I will have made it. I feel that is a slight achievement. I am starting to get the hang of this SN thing! My next goal will be 250k. I still have to figure out how to withdraw, but SN seems to be kind of a nice holding place. I know I shouldnt hold them here, but I will figure out how to use btc lightning someday. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? I have noticed some post get more traction than others, that is just life. Timing is also another big thing, if I post at midnight it doesnt do as well. There are so many things I am still learning! I have managed to keep my hat for 42 days...thats something. Thanks for the journey so far :)

Well done! I use Blink and Speed wallets for small amounts of BTC. They are custodial but easy to use and worth getting to know.

20 sats \ 8 replies \ @Radentor 9 Jun

Blink requires phone number which is light-KYC and Speed is even worse

41 sats \ 1 reply \ @Catcher 9 Jun

I also thought like that, but you can click the "use email instead" and don't provide phone number. You can also delete the number from existing account if you have an email added but I suppose they gonna store it on the server anyway, but give it a try

Okay, I will give it a try .

Blink does not require a phone verification but without it you're stuck at "account level zero" and limited to $150 withdrawals and payments per day.

0 sats \ 4 replies \ @Satosora OP 9 Jun

hhhmm... I would like one without kyc.

20 sats \ 3 replies \ @cristaiji 9 Jun

Try Wallet of Satoshi perhaps. It’s popular and has been around for a while. No KYC.

Didnt wallet of satoshi just have something happen?

20 sats \ 1 reply \ @Radentor 9 Jun

It blocks access coming from US IP, same as Phoenix, Blink & ZBD

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @Satosora OP 9 Jun

Right right. No US access.

I will have to take a look at it. Is it easier and anonymous?

20 sats \ 4 replies \ @cristaiji 9 Jun

Blink uses your mobile number to back up so not really. Speed uses an email address. Aqua is completely anonymous but slightly more complicated. Worth a look though.

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @Hamstr 9 Jun

hmm, not sure if I'd trust Aqua.

0 sats \ 2 replies \ @Satosora OP 9 Jun

Aqua sounds like a winner. Does it do the splicing service?

20 sats \ 1 reply \ @Radentor 9 Jun

No, it's Liquid wallet attached to Boltz to stimulate LN experience. In another words : it does not support LN by native

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @Satosora OP 9 Jun

okay, maybe I will have to try another one.

20 sats \ 0 replies \ @didiplaywell 9 Jun

I use Zeus to retrieve sats. I used it too to set my Nostr keys and get a LN address. So it's pretty versatile. It's also non custodial and haves perfect test rating on walletscrutiny

Congratulations. Keep it up. Soon your target of 250k will also be achieved.

11 sats \ 2 replies \ @Satosora OP 9 Jun

hhhmm...I guess it depends on how well I make my posts and comments!

20 sats \ 1 reply \ @BitcoinAbhi 9 Jun

Yes, you are right. It depends on the quality of the content you will publish.

Well done.

I think @k00b is going to have some wallet announcements soon. There are plenty of lightning wallets you could start with now, but if you're not in a rush you may want to see if any in particular are going to be recommended for attaching to Stacker News.

0 sats \ 11 replies \ @Satosora OP 9 Jun

Yes, I remember there were a few annoucements a couple weeks ago. I have very specific guidelines. I want a wallet that doesnt have my name attached. I would like to be able to turn the sats from the lightning side to the bitcoin side. Is that even possible? Do you understand what I mean?

20 sats \ 10 replies \ @Radentor 9 Jun

You mean...... like a swap service ?. I have a wallet directory too if that helps (a bit outdated tho)

0 sats \ 9 replies \ @Satosora OP 9 Jun

Oh, its called swapping?

62 sats \ 8 replies \ @Radentor 9 Jun

Yeah lemme explain some of them :

Trusted swap : straight forward exchanging onchain sats to LN sats or vice versa based on trust (usually bcs the software is closed-source)

Atomic swap : using HTLC which mean it's either successfully happened in a non-custodial manner or not happened at all

Splicing : spending your LN sats to Onchain address. There is no exchange interaction actually

Robosats : coordinated exchange swap using hodl invoice to create non-custodial UX

Lastly, closing your channel (least recommended)

0 sats \ 7 replies \ @Satosora OP 9 Jun

Maybe what I want is called splicing? I would like to send these sats to an old btc address.

120 sats \ 6 replies \ @Radentor 9 Jun

Anything i mentioned above can help you exchange your LN sats to Onchain

The downside of splicing is that it will reduce your channel size and splicing hasn't yet available on many wallets other than Phoenix

I'd just suggest Boltz if you're new

+1 for boltz, I’ve had good success with it

Wow, congrats on this Satosara! Yea I've seen you in a few posts now. I am on day 7. Posting is definitely a habit I am getting used to - and I like!

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @Satosora OP 10 Jun

Thanks! You will be able to reach this too if you keep at it.

10 sats \ 1 reply \ @BononXD 9 Jun

With the right amount, I have a solution to withdraw satoshi - but it's only transferring btc from sn to a private hardware wallet (on safepal, I know it's not a completely safe wallet and there are better ones) but this one will cost me 10,000 satoshi fee on the bitcoin network , in total, I am approaching 2,000 satoshi, so I wish you good collecting and more substantive posts that will not only relate to my life, but can actually show an interesting train of thought based on a logical and coherent point of thinking.

I will have to take a look at it :)

10 sats \ 1 reply \ @Satosora OP 9 Jun

I just got the dreaded message: Your wallet is over the current limit (100k sats) Deposits to your wallet from outside of SN are blocked. Please spend or withdraw sats to restore full wallet functionality.

10 sats \ 0 replies \ @0xIlmari 9 Jun

That's a good problem to have.
