Bitcoin Basin is not only rising up the ranks in merchants per capita, but the merchants we’re getting are different.
Yea, you can grab a beer, or a slice of pizza. How about a bike rental to hit the bike park? How about your accommodation? A barber shop?
I think you should come visit.

Really pumped about the onboarding flow we’ve build at Lightning Pay. NZD to your lightning wallet in a few clicks and a few seconds. Check it out.

Sorry you guys missed it. The bitkiwi events are a blast. You can check out kiwibitcoinguide.org as we keep the bitkiwi schedule up to date as well as we can there. Next event is the halving party in Wellington!

This is the next shift in mindset bitcoin will make to the masses. Store of value is a nearly won narritive battle. The next demonstration bitcoin needs to make is as digital cash.
I watched the first battle passively holding my keys, and I'm excited to help fight the next.

I lost a week to being obsessed with this awhile back too, weirdly getting choked up at times seeing them react to music I love. For a brief moment, I understood YouTube. Humans are weird.

Latest article on KiwiBitcoinGuide, "How to buy non-kyc bitcoin from New Zealand?"
A very thorough and great overview on how (and a bit on why) buying bitcoin without giving away can be done from our beautiful country. Check it out.

There are many moment I have with lightning payments like that (Lunanode included), where I think, “shit, that was easy I wish everything worked like that.”

The interesting thing is I think a lot of less technical people are just going to keep using it and think something is wrong with bitcoin/lightning.

Upgraded my zap receiving with an lnbits self hosted lightning address!

2023-03-09 23:00:36 GMT

Every time it seems I open Nostr these days there’s some new damned thing happening, I can’t keep up with what you crazy assholes are doing. Last week badges. This morning some sort of hell thread? Now everyone is screaming about zaps again.

2023-03-05 19:40:03 GMT

I just came across this open source lightning address server. Looks like you can self host it, making for a sovereign lightning address. Going to give it a shot. #[0] #[1]

That works too (that’s actually what I do for BTCPay), it just makes your vps more expensive.

I also use the same process for a clearnet mempool and lnbits instance.

For the nginx part, I found these scripts from #[3] to be quite useful.

Pretty sure tunnelsats only gets your lightning node to clearnet, not services like BTCPay.

2023-02-21 18:57:52 GMT

- reply

Yep. You’ll have to run a VPS. Many use digital ocean, I use lunanode (accepts btc). Mine costs $3/mo.
Then you’ll need to connect the vps to your node with a vpn of some kind, I use tailscale, others use openvpn or wireguard.
Then setup a domain, pointed to your vps, and use nginx (or another service) to proxy traffic to your BTCPay.
There are a few guides out there, happy to find one for you when I get a few more min later on.

Looks like lnbits is close too.

You’ve sent me down a rabbit hole to figure this out for myself.

2023-02-19 21:52:43 GMT

Looked at my mempool this morning (default size), and thought about #[0] and his bold claim it will never clear again. Getting nervous?

Best I can come up with is BTCPay Server at the moment.

I use Damus. If that’s what you’re using, change the default zap amount in settings.

I’m not a social media lover. I lurked on twitter for 12 years before sending my first tweet. But I can’t help but dive into nostr. Something about the vibe here, the drive to make something better.

2023-02-17 11:13:24 GMT

Is there anything out there that helps a merchant create a btc rewards/loyalty program for their customers?
I’ve started something using lnbits and the user manager extension as a backend, but I’d rather just find something that works now. 😂

I retweeted this from #[2] from the times before nostr. He had it in quotes, so not sure who said it first.
"I'm willing to lose everything. [...] I'm willing to watch it all go to zero just for the chance to change the system. How are you gonna beat me if I'm that intolerant? You can't. And there's thousands of me."

Agreed. Personally, it took me awhile to price things in sats in my head. But once I got it, it was pretty easy. Much better than pricing something as 0.0000xxx BTC.

This “inefficient wallet” statement probably is intended to describe fee estimation. These days, wallets do a pretty good job of estimating the fee required to enter the next block, or at least communicate trade offs in fee selection.
Just a few years back, a lot of wallets were terrible at estimating fees. This often lead to users overpaying for their transaction.

Weird. Works fine for me with Damus. You sure you’re in the TestFlight version? I don’t see a zap symbol on your posts here.

Eureka!

2023-02-17 02:21:16 GMT

Testing my new personal relay. Let’s find out if it works!

2023-02-16 08:54:26 GMT

I was in a meeting today fantasizing about using nostr in our products for a private chat function. We’ve never touched this in the past, but p2p (and private relays) gets around our data privacy concerns, as we don’t want anything to do with this kind of user data. Am I crazy?

2023-02-15 09:03:49 GMT

I’ve done it. Works by connecting to my Umbrel at home. Not using that Umbrel for bitcoin things, just playing with the various self hosted software.
I access the umbrel via tailscale from the phone. Self hosted Robosats gives a little privacy bump too! Works fine in safari.

Hello again world. Next time, treat your nostr keys with just a fraction of the care with which you treat your btc keys.
