What did we learn from the @Alby outage? If you’re using AlbyHub and self hosting your Lightning wallet, you can still lose access to your funds. You don’t lose your funds, so that’s a plus. But, you can lose the ability to access your funds. I recommend always having a coupe of avenues available for accessing your lightning sats. Here’s my recommendation:
1.) if you’re running a node, spin up an instance of @BTCPay Server This provides you with a truly self sovereign way of handling your lightning wallet.
2.) @OVO as a backup, but a custodial solution
3.) @Wallet of Satoshi also a custodial, but worth holding on to you can get it.
While @Alby is cool, easy, and I’ll continue to use it. Just remember 2=1, 1=0, and 3>2. 🤙🏻

Here’s some details from this year’s square game….
69 individuals played
4 winners, total with total payout of 1m sats.
One winner purchased 1 square, one winner purchased 2 squares, and two winners purchased 4 squares. We also had the one repeat winner from last year’s game. This shows that anyone can win.
Total sats collected for square sales was 1,001,000. Total routing fees paid to send winner payouts was 1,163.
Thanks to all that played. It was fun and I learned more about btcpayserver which is why I started this.
Let’s do it again next year.

Trying to confirm the wallet you want to receive your Super Bowl Square payout. Do I use what’s in your profile or what you submitted at purchase. Since they’re different, want to confirm before sending. Thanks.
Super Bowl payouts happening. @QW confirm the Lightning address you want me to send to. WOS or Primal? Just want to send to correct wallet since there’s conflicting info between invoice what’s set on NOSTR.
Q2- Chiefs 0-Phili 24 ….0,4 on the board. There’s a lucky ozzie playing again this year. @Jamaussie
All payouts will occur in 12-18 hours.

🚨Super Bowl Board Filled🚨
We did it, the board had been filled. I have two slots that I will put back up for the taking if someone wants them. If sold, I will be removed from the game, removing any conceived conflict of interest on my part. If they don’t sell in 24 hours, I’ll take them back and will create the game board and publish 24 hours before game time.
