Found a new self hosted dashboard called Glance. Makes for an excellent home page. Home page with various widgets - weather, world clock, search engine directed to Kagi, bookmarks, markets, rss feed and latest releases of favourite software. image A thumbnail view of all my favourite YouTube channels. image Top posts on my favourite subreddits. image

IMPORT YOUR EXISTING SAMOURAI WALLET INTO SPARROW WALLET Read entire post before attempting at home! You will need: 1. Your Samourai Wallet seed phrase (12 words) 2. Your passphrase 3. Sparrow Wallet downloaded and installed on to your computer. (https://www.sparrowwallet.com) Configure your server. This could be your own node, or a public electrum server. I have selected Blocksteam's electrum server here. image Toggle on your server using the switch on the bottom right. It should turn yellow, green or blue depending on what you've selected. Go to File -> New Wallet, or click on New Wallet. image Name your wallet. image Click on New or Imported Software Wallet. image On the dropdown menu besides the Mnemonic Words (BIP39), select 12 words. Type your seed into the fields displayed in the correct order from 1 to 12. Check the "Use passphrase?" option. Insert your passphrase and click Create Keystore. image Click on Import Keystore. image Reenter your passphrase as prompted image Click on Apply on the bottom right. image If you want to add a password to open up your wallet with, enter one, otherwise click No Password. image In the bottom of the settings page, you will see "Add Account..." button. Click on it. image From the dropdown menu, select Whirlpool Accounts image Your wallet will be scanned by the server you have selected. You should also be able to see your respective deposit, premix, postmix and bad bank accounts. image You should now be able to send your bitcoin to another wallet/address of your choosing. I would recommend sending this out to a hardware wallet. Notes: - Be sure you obtain sparrow wallet from sparrowwallet dot com. Get it right! - Because you are inputing seed words into a computer, ensure no keyloggers are installed. Be wary of dodgy browser extensions. - Dojo users need not worry. This is for those who used SW backend. - Beware of scammers on the Sparrow Telegram chat. They're out in full force today. Nobody will ask you for your seed words. Do not give them out to anyone.

Hold your own keys. Use your own node. Follow privacy best practices. The rest is noise.

@ODELL reached out to me today, concerned for my welfare after seeing the state of the mempool. I'm fine, doing well, with my lightning channels that were opened at 1sat/vbyte.
