Gave up my old Lightning node—never hit positive ROI. Back at it with a smaller setup for a trustless personal payment channel. Alby is a great tool alongside my Umbrel humming in the background with its Alby hub, Lightning node, and Bitcoin knot. #Nostr #Bitcoin #Alby #Umbrel #Bitkoin_knot

Just did my duty for the Bitcoin community: donated 0.03 BTC 😅 My Core Lightning wallet froze. Made a backup. Reset Umbrel. Turns out the backup was corrupted after full node resync. Coins are likely gone forever – and the supply just got smaller. You’re welcome, fellow hodlers – you now own a slightly bigger piece 😉⚡️ #Bitcoin

The best way to escape the fiat system is to optimize the process of converting fiat to Bitcoin — and then make BTC usable for everyday life as easily as possible. Everyone in Bitcoin knows that Lightning adoption is still limited in daily commerce. That’s why I use Xapo as my bank. All my fiat is converted to Bitcoin there, and I use the Xapo Mastercard for daily spending. BTC is seamlessly converted to local currency at the point of sale — giving me maximum Bitcoin exposure and minimal fiat interaction. #Bitcoin #BitcoinStandard #Lightning #Xapo #EscapeFiat

“Once a seed.” The calling came many years ago. Everyone may have thought it was forgotten. But seeds grow in secret. And now we see it: God has watered, shaped, waited. The great tree doesn’t come in haste, but in faithfulness. I want to stand in the light and let my roots grow deep. It is not too late. The seed lives. #Calling #Faithfulness #Growth #Hope #OnceASeed 🌱🌳
