A lot of things have been built; only adoption is slowing down, but it&#39;d catch up.<br/><br/>When you research free banking and why it &#34;failed&#34;, you&#39;ll find out that most of the acclaimed reasons why it was stopped were largely things that the government could&#39;ve managed if they wished to.<br/><br/>One of the reasons, and what may be considered as the major reason, was &#34;war financing&#34;. The government needed to exert full control over money to be able to finance wars. They wouldn&#39;t be able to do that if different banks kept issuing different currencies that often had different values.<br/><br/>Bitcoin, from design, is made for free banking, and unlike when gold and silver (whose reserve claims were not easily verified) were used as reserve assets, bitcoin, on the other hand, is readily verified through several cryptographic proof of reserve systems.<br/><br/>Today, we already have financial solutions that make Bitcoin the base layer on which currencies can be issued.<br/><br/>Fiat channel is one of those, and many other versions of the same solution exist.<br/><br/>FIAT CHANNEL:<br/><br/>Fiat channels enable the creation of synthetic stable value fiat assets on the Lightning Network, with Bitcoin serving as the underlying asset being transferred. <br/><br/>The Fiat channel protocol was coined from the original Hosted Channels protocol. In this case, when a client receives Sats over the channel, the Fiat value as at when received is locked in as a stable balance, while the Sats valur keep floating with the Bitcoin price movement.<br/><br/>To ensure that the client can always spend the sats worth of their locked-in stable amount (at any given Bitcoin market price), the Host (who&#39;s the lightning node runner) must hedge the fiat exposure of the client, and must balance this hedging each time a withdrawal or deposit is made.<br/><br/>So at all times, what the client sends out when making payment is Sats, but the face value is denominated in Fiat.<br/><br/>So the Host must have Sats on his node to route the client&#39;s payment, and must hedge the client&#39;s fiat exposure, balancing these positions at all times.<br/><br/>This is a typical free banking setup where several Hosts can run lightning nodes with Fiat channel plugins and hedging mechanisms to offer this service to any willing client. <br/><br/>We are currently researching how to enforce cryptographically verifiable proof of reserve and hedging capital/margin.<br/><br/>This is a work in progress, but so far it has been implemented on Valet, and users can already open Fiat channels to our SATM nodes.<br/><br/>Valet: <a href="https://github.com/standardsats/valet/releases">https://github.com/standardsats/valet/releases</a><br/>Fiat Channel: <a href="https://github.com/standardsats/fiat-channels-rfc">https://github.com/standardsats/fiat-channels-rfc</a><br/>SATM node QR: 👇 <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/f29c22a92e5616dee1ac18702ab413f878c992d825e0fedb109f6216c4bedd7e.jpg"> <br/><br/>SET UP STEPS:<br/><br/>- Install Valet and create a wallet (copy 12 phrase keys)<br/>- Click on Lightning<br/>- Scan Node QR<br/>- Scan the attached QR code<br/>- Select &#34;Request USD Fiat channel.&#34;<br/>- A 500,000 Sats capacity Fiat channel will be opened automatically, and you can start receiving Sats on the go, and watch how it works.<br/><br/>NB: At any point, you can sweep your Fiat channel balance into your normal Lightning channel. 2026-02-13T10:56:20Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs2s22uy5x9g8tg975f7hzaawtj9qh3dzsrk672fr34zxys5k55etqzyqy37g4n7j8hwklgfkrk5kdwj8dz7c6ac740zu8m9huww8vttnnzc2xkxcx In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsf5x0e7s29apcm4rxhwkhxwweza2759hxnggrz9upud46ceqg092gpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgkp89v8'>nevent1q…89v8</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>We wanted to publish Valet Bitcoin wallet some time ago, but according to <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/nprofile1qyt8wumn8ghj7ct8vaezumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgtcpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezumrpdejz7qpqwf4pufsucer5va8g9p0rj5dnhvfeh6d8w0g6eayaep5dhps6rsgshcqyxr" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>franzap</span> (<span class="italic">nprofile…qyxr</span>)</a></span> it required that our Nostr pubkey got some number of followers, and whitelisting wasn&#39;t working as at then.<br/><br/>Also, this link &#34;<a href="https://zapstore.dev/docs/cli/publish&#34">https://zapstore.dev/docs/cli/publish&#34</a>; leads to a dead end now.<br/><br/>Please how do we go about that now? 2026-02-13T09:53:11Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqspjlxful4g0jg4fzw8w8hcdv6xcevqnf75nsqm9c3asy8vtgt26uczyqy37g4n7j8hwklgfkrk5kdwj8dz7c6ac740zu8m9huww8vttnnzc3rdgqh In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsq7vl22c3n9pvxxvhcdz3t2v2sxjqv9v4z04acxkgjuwwv3tkf05su3mrpu'>nevent1q…mrpu</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Here&#39;s the correct GitHub link to install Valet: <a href="https://github.com/standardsats/valet">https://github.com/standardsats/valet</a><br/><br/>There was a typo error in the link in my previous message 2026-02-12T12:36:49Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs9qldvnxu0ferwa5f228gfcm7thj606gva7xuryjhs5ken0g300sqzyqy37g4n7j8hwklgfkrk5kdwj8dz7c6ac740zu8m9huww8vttnnzcjcxl05 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsq9ck30j42td0ux2ksr9n7dx3vvw0kjg6jzlfydstdlxr6pzr20gs4c2sk4'>nevent1q…2sk4</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Okay, that&#39;s right 2026-02-12T10:18:46Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsvgn75hnrkpcm262lcfsduw3a8dw6yvz35t5entaq3vjkxuacj7pszyqy37g4n7j8hwklgfkrk5kdwj8dz7c6ac740zu8m9huww8vttnnzclygyw2 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqst800tusgv5r87exkhnung4fuq5jp8gvw2ugslynvl2skvr88ladcqvgxhh'>nevent1q…gxhh</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>About your last paragraph, have you heard about &#34;mobile lightning nodes&#34;?<br/><br/>I mean, actual nodes, not some LSP powered nodes.

Even in highly inflated economies, people hardly accept Bitcoin (writing from first hand experience).<br/><br/>So for anyone who&#39;s not an actual Bitcoiner, Bitcoin is not entirely a safe haven cos of price fluctuation.<br/><br/>Given that bias, the easier way Bitcoin&#39;s adoption as a medium of exchange actually grows is that Bitcoiners who understand what Bitcoin is must be willing to spend it, and must learn to request to make payments with Bitcoin whether a merchant actively accepts it or not. <br/><br/>It is the easiest and most effective form of awareness and sensitization. Again, without actual demand, at best, it&#39;d be Bitcoiner merchantsthat will most often display willingness and readiness to accept Bitcoin for payments. 2026-02-11T02:19:21Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs2p9kh59zr4kdk8d5lzhzh9r6qqh44hkq5rfzs3zcc2gnshva25tczyqy37g4n7j8hwklgfkrk5kdwj8dz7c6ac740zu8m9huww8vttnnzcchegar In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsf49sczlng0u0f642kfmurtv2at44aua4ctxtryqfyx58sd57dxxqpr9mhxue69uhk2umsv4kxsmewva5hy6twduhx7un89u6aq20r'>nevent1q…q20r</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Discount for paying in Bitcoin is NEVER and has never seemed like a sustainable way of making Bitcoin a medium of exchange.<br/><br/>Users must be willing to spend Bitcoins as money and not coerced through unsustainable incentives.<br/><br/>If anything, it looks like trying to cut corners!! People who hold Bitcoin must be convinced enough and willing to spend it by requesting to use it when they need to make payments.<br/><br/>That is the natural and only sustainable way bitcoin becomes a widely used means of exchange, especially considering the fact that most merchants run fully on Fiat.<br/><br/>If we make a survey, you&#39;ll find out that most merchants who give these discounts are probably Bitcoiners who already understands the point, or merchants that use POS&#39;s (e.g Square POS) where the POS provider most likely makes up for the discount, because they&#39;re trying to promote Bitcoin usage.<br/><br/>There&#39;s hardly any merchant who&#39;s not a Bitcoiner that&#39;d give discount when users opt to pay in Bitcoin (that is if they agree to accept it), and Bitcoin becomes an actual medium of exchange when a merchant who probably does not fully understand the core values of Bitcoin starts accepting it because it is widely accepted as money.<br/><br/>That kind of ripple effect only happens when there&#39;s demand for Bitcoin as a payment option, and that demand will be driven by Holders&#39; willingness to spend it, and not merchants readiness/willingness to accept it. 2026-02-11T02:08:41Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsd4ywmt7vvsut7lmak5k6ww4ltm2zqsnxak34p74yqz07djhkpx2czyqy37g4n7j8hwklgfkrk5kdwj8dz7c6ac740zu8m9huww8vttnnzcmc5h0s In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsgc9lx96ctdqstajey2zgvaqe6lvwn0987ezr565p8alxf0fgrasqpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfdum6v8td'>nevent1q…v8td</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Valet Bitcoin wallet (fork of the old Simple Bitcoin Wallet which has now stopped support for Lightning)<br/><br/>Valet provides actual lightning node on mobile, plus custodial, privacy focused Hosted Lightning channels.<br/><br/>Here: <a href="https://github.com/standardsats/valet">https://github.com/standardsats/valet</a> 2026-02-11T01:19:46Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsw54um9r3gy92pnrft764h7a55qynm72jpzg8hec450jxhvxte8mczyqy37g4n7j8hwklgfkrk5kdwj8dz7c6ac740zu8m9huww8vttnnzcrwp889 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqswafhv2r3vwx0cdguue8p3ulk3s2cfsyer6sz5twyym59p94gp0xcprpmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctvlldmtv'>nevent1q…dmtv</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Check out Valet Bitcoin wallet, a self-custodial Bitcoin/Lightning wallet we built (forked from the original Simple Bitcoin Wallet which no longer supports lightning, actually).<br/><br/>Valet houses an actual lightweight Lightning node, with a robust backup file that saves in your devices as soon as you open a lightning channel.

Valet houses an actual lightweight Lightning node on the mobile device, and it does not rely on LSP provisions to work. <br/><br/>Users are able to open channels to any Lightning node, manage their funds, etc. The node is lightweight, hence it sources Bitcoin blockchain information from external Electrum servers. On Valet, we use random Electrum servers; however, users have the ability to connect to their own servers.<br/><br/>Valet was designed with a community focus, completely mobile-only. Hosted channel is another feature of Valet that is interesting. Also built with the IMMORTAN library, hosted channels is a lightning implementation that enables opening of custodial Lightning channels without giving up users&#39; privacy.<br/><br/>It uses a Host/Client setup where a Host is any entity running a Lightning routing node with the Hosted channels plugin, whereas a client is any wallet software (custodial or non-custodial) that has the client-side code of the Hosted channels protocol implemented, e.g Valet. <br/><br/>Client anonymity is preserved because preimage generation, route selection, and onion formation all still happen on the client side.<br/><br/>I think it&#39;d be cool if you could check out Valet and the IMMORTAN library. <br/><br/>Here:<br/><br/>Valet: <a href="https://github.com/standardsats/valet">https://github.com/standardsats/valet</a><br/>IMMORTAN: <a href="https://github.com/standardsats/immortan">https://github.com/standardsats/immortan</a><br/>Hosted channels: <a href="https://github.com/standardsats/hosted-channels-rfc">https://github.com/standardsats/hosted-channels-rfc</a><br/><br/>We have a small telegram community where we discuss development, features, and general contributions.
