Yes, ntfy. Alright figured it out. Here are the steps:
1) Install ntfy from F-Droid
2) If you have already done so, and there are entries that are of the form ntfy.sh/xGH... ➡️ Delete them
3) In ntfy app > Settings > Default Server: change to your self hosted url (e.g https://ntfy.mydomain.tld)
4) In Amethyst, log in with Amber, and follow the poop up steps. The process will make the ntfy app to create a new subscription, but this time to your server (not ntfy.sh)

2024-09-01 22:10:34

The "connected with your server" part is the issue.
Do I need to create a Topic on the server first? And then have the app subscribe to it?

Why would you need channel management in Amethyst UI? You only have to set it up once and should do in the AlbyHub UI.

It's arguably very hard. How would someone not an expert on Nostr understand where to publish their notes to to be discovered by their intended followership vs where to Read from, and where to Search for etc.
If you want to make sure you are not missing sth/are bing missed then the rational safe option is simply to blsst to as many big relays as possible, and read from as many as possible. It's just the network effect.
I don't see any careful relay curation strategy can live up to that (beside it being totally impractical as there are many less than 50 ppl worldwide who have the knowledge and skills to actually make it work)

2024-08-17 07:57:30

Having set up an own AlbyHub (on Desktop), I was still required to create an getalby.com account which i didn't have. I had thought that "AlbyHub" gives me essentially a self-hosted version of the getalby.com - which I can run under my own domain.
So the stack is as follows (plz correct me if I'm wrong!):
1) getalby.com Account is always required. This acts as the "management UI" of my underlying hub
2) Alby Hub: that's the backend server my mandatory getalby.com Account connects to (through NWC). I can self-host, or use the alby cloud one.
3) LN Node: that is funding source beneath the Alby Hub. Can be bring-your-own-node (LND, CLN, phoenixd, any node via NWC ), embedded (LDK), external (Breezsdk, Greelight) and connects via the methods the my chonse implementation supports: gRPC, REST, NWC etc.
If so, then I know where my confusion came from. My natural association with the term "Hub" is essentially "management UI", i.e. 1).
What you call "AlbyHub" , I would call "Alby Server".
let me know if i got this correct

Well. It's not that Coinpayments.net as a payment processor business would want to run their own node, since their objective is to swap into fiat anyway (they are not self-custodying anyway). They could thus easily just integrate some LN backend API to enable receives: OpenNode, Alby, Lipa, Strike, etc
Would give them another supported payment option at virtually no integration cost.

"run your own relay" yes- you are making my point.
It's the same as hosting my blog, my own YT etc. It's the only way to be self-sovereign, but with no reach and unlikely to be discovered.
We had open protocols before to access dispersed self-sovereign notes and blogs (RSS), yet it failed to catch on and people gravitated to the big platforms Medium, Substack etc.
Nostr is also essentially the set of "relevant" central relays which everybody subscribes to to find and be found. We trust them to continue to behave honestly.

Great no one can alter my notes, but they can be suppressed by the relays or deleted altogether. I really have no guarantee that what I want to tell the world, can be seen by the world; I have to trust that some unknown operator(s) will be so kind to serve it.
If I want to make really sure stuff exists and is accessible to everyone (e.g. my blogs Git repos, Shopstr listings, etc), then I am back to self hosting.

Afaik (I'm not an expert here), Apple pay/Google pay et al generate a device specific Device PAN (essentiy a fake Id) of your card, and they only transfer a token to the merchant. I.e. the merchant does not see your actual card number, nor who you are. Apple/Google of course do..
Merchants can track DPANs to e.g. identify recurring purchases of you (without knowing who you are). But the same Credit Card on different devices will generate different DPANs...so you could add your one card to diff wallets to throw off the tracking a bit (not very practical though)
That's what I could find on the topic:

2024-05-31 08:51:46

👀 Wow.
@GrassFedBitcoin
Wow just figured out Bitmain's latest fuckery in real time.
I'll give you the back story...
Once upon a time Bitmain was grinding merkle roots instead of nonces aka "covert ASICBOOST".
This gave them an advantage over other miners who didn't know this was possible. One company went out of business - KNC - citing "the Chinese having some secret advantage we don't know about" - which turned out to be true precisely for this reason.
It's one of the reasons ASIC manufacture is so centralized today and this is correctly identified by many as being one of the most vulnerable aspects of the entire bitcoin ecosystem.
The ASICBOOST issue came to a head when Bitmain used their influence to block the activation of SEGWIT (essential for Lightning) because it would break their ability to do it - at least covertly. Well, they would still be able to use asicboost, but just in an obvious way that would mean everyone else could do it too. They had patented it so as to try and prevent this because that's the kind of people we're dealing with here but I digress...
When asicboost was independently discovered by Greg Maxwell Bitmain lied and said they weren't in fact using it.
This was after years of bullshitting about segwit, with Bitmain pretending to be in favour of "alternative scaling solutions" or even doing segwit as a hard fork instead which would allow them to continue what they were doing.....
Absolutely nobody believed them thanks to GMax having reverse engineered one of their ASICs and demonstrating what they had built and tried to keep to themselves.
This was a watershed moment in the fork wars where everyone suddenly understood why Bitmain had been making nonsensical arguments against segwit forever. Wanting big/small blocks wasn't a related discussion. Segwit fixed TX malleability and was a no-brainer upgrade and in the end was combined with a block size increase anyway as a compromise.
So we proceeded with segwit anyway, at which point Bitmain switched to overt asicboost which is actually even more powerful, it just requires grinding version bits instead of merkle roots but it's obvious if a miner is doing this.
Now everybody does it so essentially the net effect of it being possible is zero, except your node asking you wtf miners are doing signalling for upgrades your node knows nothing about (upgrade coordination is what version bits are actually supposed to be used for).
Oh well, relatively little harm done. If you're happy to ignore the obvious dishonesty and effort to undermine what's arguably Bitcoin's most important ever upgrade.
Fun extra tidbit: Antbleed - an intentional backdoor with which Bitmain could remotely shutdown any Antminer in the world. They said it was for shutting down stolen ASICs but immediately patched it once it was discovered.
Anyway, this company now accounts for 25-30% of all blocks found, if you naively observe the blockchain.
That's not enough to spook anyone, but unfortunately many smaller pools are in fact just fronts for Bitmain which we know for three reasons:
1. The smaller pools are clearly using blocks constructed by, or for the benefit of, Antpool.
2. They share the same custodian of their newly mined coins (Cobo).
3. They have a lending program to bail out smaller pools who get in over their head due to FPPS.
And the trend is sadly in the wrong direction, given Braiins recently abandoning its old payout model and becoming just a simple proxy for Bitmain as result of switching to FPPS.
[Massive shoutout to
@mononautical
and
@0xB10C
for helping uncover how centralized pools have become.]
Summary - Bitmain is not just Antpool, it probably accounts for >50% of block templates and manufactures >90% of the mining hardware in the world.
So where am I going with all this?
Amazingly, it's about empty blocks.
What does that have to do with anything?
Well, famously OCEAN has found 3 empty blocks in its short existence, causing many to wrongly make allegations of some sort of issue with the pool itself.
This spurred on endless debate about why pools make empty templates in the first place and the actual reason so many of them get solved.
In short, pools send empty templates then immediately follow up with full templates. So quickly, that the interim period accounts for a tiny minority of the empty blocks that get found on the network, and none of ours.
In all three cases with OCEAN, the miner solved the empty block longer after already having a full template to work on -
- leaving the pool in a position to either throw away a perfectly good (but empty) block or to broadcast it to the network and get miners >90% of the reward of a full block. Obviously the latter makes sense and does zero harm to the network while still adding to the overall PoW necessary for any attacker.
So why would an empty block happen a few seconds after the pool had already sent an updated job for a full block?
Because Antminers suck.
*What we didn't realize was that they intentionally sucked.*
You can send an updated job to an Antminer and watch it continue to work on an old job for over 60 seconds in edge cases.
This was something we assumed was due to design of the ASIC itself, and thus just poor engineering on the part of Bitmain.
But it turns out we were wrong, it's due to Antminer firmware.
We know this because they just released a fix for it.
So Bitmain watched, while people kept mining empty blocks, everyone would wrongly attribute it to pools, while explainers on popular websites like mempool(.)space would offer wrong explanations about it happening due to pools being slow to send proper templates and seemingly no one would understand even the motivation for sending empty templates, let alone the reason they get worked on for so long.
But the fix being something that gets released right after OCEAN starts explaining what's really going on here is beyond reasonable doubt.
They had a fix for it, and have been using that fix for their own mining.
Now they can't get away with it because increasingly people are realizing that Whatsminers and ASICs from other manufacturers aren't finding anything like the amount of empty blocks because they switch jobs far more quickly.
An Antminer has a far greater likelihood of finding an empty block because it spends longer working on old jobs.
We've been out here yelling that the issue is with the ASIC *NOT* the pool.
The fact that Bitmain intentionally crippled the firmware on the Antminers they would sell to the world, while keeping more functional units for their own mining is typical of everything Bitmain.
Sure it can be incompetence and coincidental timing on the fix, but I sincerely doubt it.
The conversation around empty blocks reached the point where people were beginning to realize something was broken with Antminers and then they just happen to release a fix for it right after people finally start catching wind of what's really going on.

So imagine this -
You sell shovels to gold miners, and as we all know, the people who make money during a gold rush are the people who sell the shovels.
But in this case the shovel seller is digging for gold himself too.
And he has intentionally sold crappy shovels to all of his customers so as give himself an advantage.
Empty blocks kept happening, people kept blaming pools.
OCEAN got attacked over it. We explained the real reason they happen so much, and Bitmain releases a fix right after.
Insane.
This goes further than empty blocks.
It's not just empty templates that take forever to work their way out of an Antminer, it's *all templates* and pools are constantly updating work as new transactions show up.
A super lucrative transaction shows up in your mempool?
All other pools are sending an updated job to hundreds of thousands of Antminers who will ignore it for a while, while Antpool has their miners working on it more quickly.
It's not hard to see the motivation for all this, especially going forward as TX fees become more and more important.
Again, insane.

Yeah I know.. having one board with 4 or 8 ASIC chips would be ideal for home mining, and a good form factor for immersion.

I want to see builds with immersion cooling, ideally multiple boards at once.

Twitter web on mobile seems to be broken.
Seen one account where all buttons are gone, another one is with endless loop trying to log in.
Anyone else seeing the same?

You know, someone should actually dig into the regulation whether *actual banks could not operate an ecash ledger* instead of traditional account based ones.
Wouldn't be surprised if it's not specifically defined, but rather a "always done so"
@npub12rv…85vg could open an actual Cashu bank (licensed) in Malta or Lithuania 😜🤘

Well akchually.. you are _increasing_ your risk of getting rugged (by any one mint) the more mints you use

Yes. It is directionally correct
