Christ, bit touchy aren’t we, tubby?

This is hilarious and ridiculous FUD given the bitcoin you deposit with anchorwatch is literally insured.

Thanks. I’m self hosting Alby without an Alby account, on the default LDK mode they spin up. I have only one private channel to a node I know. I’d have assumed this AlbyAuth thing should not be activated? I’m very concerned by the view transactions etc. I’ve not even got to the “own lightning address” or lnurl part yet.

Surf’s Up :(

Exactly. Matt, Marty, NVK and friends went from privacy advocates to money men. They're like that evil pastor cult in the timothy dalton james bond movie. "Send us your sats, we love freedom!" but we're balls deep in our Strike investment and pushing its custodial platform everywhere because we need it to work for us financially.

That's because every ten31 investment gets a pass on being custodial, compromising on bitcoin, etc. by ten31 vcs, lps and friends. That whole crew are unfortunately falling prey to the entire industry they said they wouldn't be: shill the portfolio, push one narrative, say one thing in public and another in private.

Bitcoiners are eyes-wide-open people; stay that way. Keeps things in perspective. SN is great. Primal is not good for nostr and fundamentally a mediocre product. Custodial LN can be OK for small amounts. It's all 21 million shades of grey, in the end. Just don't fuck with consensus.

Well this AMA went well

Thank you. I definitely feel a lot more work can be done in fee automation and fee algorithms. I’m excited for that future.

This is indeed where I’m starting to land (build own software). I’m not technical but maybe it can be vibe coded ;)

I suppose I could, but LNBits is another “50-tools-in-1” solution that I find unwieldy and huge overkill for a simple feature, like AlbyHub.

Every time I’ve used LNBits I’ve wound up deleting it and migrating to a single purpose GitHub repo from a kind bitcoiner.

I have used this but unfortunately never got it to work and we can’t delete accounts once added so I haven’t been able to readily try again.

However, it was just an example. I truly love your app, I’m just getting a bit concerned about the ballooning featureset. Still a daily user.

Growing and growing concern that Zeus is "doing too much". I know I can delete/remove wallets to bring it back to simply being a remote client, but is all this "latest and greatest" dev really helping Zeus and its users? Where is the demand for Cashu versus "it's cool"?

Not saying to hate – saying out of concern. I love Zeus. I'd love to better understand why these things are being supported over other features (e.g. adding ability to connect to an electrum server so you can have watch-only wallets etc).

Avid Zeus user; Evan does the lord’s work! But I don’t get push notifications….

Maybe, but I want to learn.

Transactions, channel operations, routing fees — basically LN events

Someone needs to write a guide on how to hook this up with Umbrel/Start9 etc or just LND.

Came here for the “I’m affected and angry” chat and was very disappointed.

It’s the Robocop Game Boy theme. https://youtu.be/wGIKnn-COS4
