“How long do we tolerate channel partners who don’t raise fees when their side is completely drained? This hurts routing incentives and wastes capital. Seriously, are they hoping for divine rebalancing or just asleep at the wheel? See screenshot. #LightningNetwork #Bitcoin #Routing #NodeOperators #LiquidityMatters #Nostr”

🔥 Just discovered Lightning Network Plus! 🚀⚡ I’m diving deep into running my own Lightning node, and the learning process is intense! Every day brings new insights, and the Bitcoin rabbit hole just keeps getting deeper. 🕳️🐇 Excited to explore liquidity pools, strategic channel management, and optimizing routing fees. Any tips from experienced node operators? 🤔💡 #Bitcoin #LightningNetwork #Nostr #BTC #Routing #LNPlus

📢 Nostr Post: Xapo Bank – Your Experience? “Hey Nostr community! 👋 I’ve been testing Xapo Bank for a while now and wanted to share my thoughts while also hearing from others. ✅ What I Like: • 4% APY on USD and 1% APY on BTC – solid yield compared to alternatives. • Lightning integration – makes spending BTC seamless. • Mastercard with BTC & USD spending – works well, but I’m still testing FX rates. • Competitive FX rates, but I’m keeping an eye on real-world performance. ❌ Concerns & Limitations: • Not your keys, not your coins – I don’t feel comfortable putting too much BTC in any bank. • KYC & custodial risk – it’s convenient, but still a centralized entity. • Withdrawal limits & fees – still assessing if there are any unexpected costs. • Mastercard FX rates & cashback – seem decent, but I wonder if there’s a hidden spread. ❓ Open Questions: • How do you handle tax reporting for BTC to USD swaps? • Do you use Xapo as a primary spending account, or just for specific purposes? • How do their FX rates compare to alternatives over time? • What other solutions do you use for BTC & USD banking? • Any thoughts on Xapo Mastercard vs. other BTC debit cards? Would love to hear your experiences! ⚡ #Xapo #Bitcoin #Lightning #BitcoinBanking #NotYourKeysNotYourCoins”

Hi. I have started my own Lightning Node. If anyone has their own Node and wishes to open a channel to mine, I will open a corresponding one to your Node.

🎉 Three generations of Bitaxe in action! 🎉 I now have a Bitaxe Gamma in place, and all the latest three generations of Bitaxe are working seamlessly together. It's incredible to see how the technology has evolved over time! Expected time to find a block: 5200 years... 😅 But patience is a virtue, right? #Bitaxe #Technology #Mining #Bitcoin

No group of people is your enemy. Not Palestinians, Israelis, Russians, Ukrainians, Americans, or others. It is the leaders of these countries who use their citizens as pawns in a ruthless 'game.' They are the murderers and thieves. The only way to protect yourself from these monsters is to save your resources in a value you can take with you at a moment's notice, no matter where you flee: #Bitcoin. #Peace #GlobalUnity #Leadership #Bitcoin #Freedom #Security

Just woke up in my own bed after 4 nights in Marseille. Before that, I had a week at home enjoying the crisp autumn air after 5 weeks in Thailand. There's no place like home. #Travel #HomeSweetHome #Marseille #Autumn #Thailand #TravelDiaries #Wanderlust #LifeExperiences #CrispAir #Adventure

I spent more #BTC than I saved this week. It might have been wiser to purchase with a credit card since BTC is likely to be worth more when the credit card bill is due. However, I prefer buying with #Bitcoin when the merchant offers payment in BTC. I feel like I'm making a bigger commitment to the Bitcoin ecosystem by using it whenever possible. Did two transactions on-chain and two through Lightning. What about you? #OnChain #LightningNetwork #Payments #Spending

Just kicked off my first day with the Avalon Nano 3, mining with Braiin since Oct 8 at 2:30 PM. Consuming 1.33 kW with an average hashrate of 3.108 TH/s. Mined 112 sats in the first 9.5 hours. Ordered 3 more @Avalon Nanos! Trying out @Public_Pool next. #BitcoinMining

Can someone help me, why is there no Lightning on my Damus? I need to zap directly to the author of the note.
