Using pubky with LNURL would be censorship resistant. (I think)

Never said DNS is censorship resistant.
Off topic, but using pubky for DNS is a censorship resistant (it's quite cool, uses DHT that the torrent network uses)

  1. It happens a lot, but It's obviously not ideal
  2. LN Address depend on LNURL, which depends on an HTTP server. DNS is a little more fire and forget
I don't like that it depends on things you don't actually own, meaning it's not entirely censorship resistant: a. The domain can be taken away from you. b. DNS records can be modified. OK, they mention DNSSEC, which I have zero experience so that angel might be covered.
The spec is more pushing BOLT12 without a webserver that is backwards compatibility to Layer 1.

Wanna send a postcard? Try bitcoinpostcards.net
Why did I do that? Because Bitcoin is just data. I don't need to sign a contract to accept payments.
It's like a lemonade stand. Don't need to ask anything to accept cash.
61 sats \ 2 replies \ @sime OP 10 Dec \ on: AI demand is decentralising Bitcoin mining bitcoin_Mining
More and more publically traded Bitcoin operations are swapping ASICs for GPU farms.
They are obviously not stupid. Business want more return, something which AI offers currently.
We can confirm this when the hashrate drops or at least the pool dominance is eased.

Bhutan always seemed a little magical to me.
And they have a sick dragon on their flag.

0 sats \ 1 reply \ @sime OP 3 Dec \ on: StartOS v0.4.0 to include WireGuard tunneling DIY
StartOS is very stable for me, and I enjoy my instance of AlbyHub it runs.
Can't say wireguard is a killer feature for me, but happy to see developments in this space.
Personally, dropping Tor only interfaces is on my wishlist. But I'm not dying for it either.
