My last thought of the evening is continuing along the same path from prior note...I see #Bitcoin today, is for those choosing to 'create' their future in the now. Many of them are brilliant visionaries, such as those building functionality overtop layers, like LNBits and its library of extensions. Hardware wallets today much easier to operate, like point and scan. Voltage, which I'm playing around with in addition to my self-hosted, has done a great job packaging up all the complexity, and popped it up in the cloud, or Starter9, Umbrella, MyNode, and others have made it very easy to self-host many complicated projects. Most will wait for everything to be polished, and widely accepted. Acception globally may just come about like a WhatsApp or a CashApp. Anyways, that's my rambling.

I first was attracted to #Bitcoin, the fiat price was largely in focus. Today, how many sats my lightning node is earning is largely in focus. What changes you may ask? Time & Understanding

How many central bankers does it take to steal one #Bitcoin?

Someone tries to sell me #GOLD today. Ivtold them to make something with those rocks. #Bitcoin is for spending.

Difficult for companies and governments to communicate to the masses through traditional channels such as mainstream media platforms, if many have stopped using them.

#Bitcoin : The more spent energy added over time, lesser is produced. The more it becomes used. Fascinating...

You never know sometimes how a channel will perform ahead of time, and wish you opened larger. Tools like Lightning Terminal and Lightning Jet do really well helping you to improve your node routing, and improving the health of the network. Was much harder a few years back at my first attempt.

Can one run a #Bitcoin node in the MainFrame environment?

I just learned that one Apple magical mouse is all you need to control two Mac Minis with their own separate screens. The magic is that the mouse or their trackpad only needs to be paired to one of them. This floored me.

I made a bonehead move in moving my bitcoin and lightning node over to a new box. When I didn't see my channels showing immediately in Thunderhub, I did a restore/recovery, which I believe sent a close all channels command. I'll be spending this weekend rebuilding my lightning node 😐

If you own a mobile device today, there is not enough reasons to be paying for voice and text features. 10 years from now, the telecommunications industry will look very different.

I signed a tx using a 9-volt to power the #Coldcard 😗

Don't remember where I received my copy of State of Mind: The Psychology of Control (2013) is a good watch.

#JellyFin is clean over For.

#Zeus +LN + LNBits + LNDHub = Just pure Awesomeness!

#Bitcoin is currently priced from a system known worldwide for its volatility caused from ongoing manipulation by those controlling its supply and distribution. When it ultimately detaches itself from this impaired system, and is priced from a likeable source such as energy, will we will begin to see stability.

Have my #bitcoin bolt card setup with boltcardwallet. A little tap and pay for those coffees.

Is @jack looking into Integrating #Tidal, #Nostr, stream for #zaps in some fashion?

People are noticing

The most exciting thing I found with #Bitcoin, are the layers and technologies built over its protocol and ledger.
