Thank you for clarifying your issue. It’s because it needs to be configured with your Wi-Fi and wallet info before it gets flashed to your pig. Now with a recent update, you can configure it after flashing, so that at some point in the future we can pre-flash the software at the factory, saving that step :)
For now we are a small team of volunteers working on this open-source ‘build it yourself’ project, so we do appreciate your support and understanding.

Are you wondering where the name ‘Sybil’ comes from in terms like ‘Sybil Resistance’ or ‘Sybil Attack’, where a single adversary creates multiple fake identities (or nodes) to gain unfair influence or disrupt a network? Me too!
Well here’s where…
The term “Sybil” in “Sybil attack” comes from the name of a real person—Sybil Dorsett, the pseudonym of a woman who was famously (and controversially) documented in the 1973 book Sybil as having multiple personality disorder (now called dissociative identity disorder).
Why the name?
In 2002, researchers Brian Zill and John Douceur introduced the term “Sybil attack” in a paper describing how a single user could control many fake identities in a distributed network. They named it after Sybil Dorsett because:
The attacker presents many identities, like Sybil’s multiple personalities.
So, the name is metaphorical: just as Sybil had multiple personas, an attacker simulates many users while actually being just one entity.
If you’re interested, I can link the original academic paper or explain how it influenced modern decentralized design.

Npub and nprofile are both ways to represent user identities in Nostr, but they have different purposes:
npub
• This is your public key.
• It starts with npub1...
• It’s a unique identifier for your account.
• People use this to find or follow you.
• It only contains your public key, nothing else.
nprofile
• This is a more detailed version of your identity.
• It starts with nprofile1...
• It includes your public key plus extra info like which relays you use.
• This makes it easier for apps to find your data on the network.
• It’s basically a “contact card” with more context than just the public key.
In short:
• npub = just your public key (like a username).
• nprofile = public key + relay info (like a full contact).

This evening I onboarded some friends to Nostr and here’s my top level getting started ‘guide’. Please feel free to copy & paste it and add your own favourite client link and npubs.
***Start quote***
Here’s a link to a popular client: https://primal.net
It works in a similar way to X - only much better 🙂
Everyone gets a Public Key, also called an npub. Mine is: npub1dwekunm9w9agazkwcq88ymxmj0j3qgxcu4mwfqnjqvyusa9cuxrs0wsqel
Here’s a quick link to my account via the Primal client: https://primal.net/richard
There are loads of clients out there, Primal just happens to be the most polished atm IMHO.
The npub for Bitcoin Runners is: npub1ylwh3snzv3hw9k3lum0kxx5h7v04xd76uqccnney8fmpqehluevqge7jxa
primal.net/p/npub1ylwh3snzv3hw9k3lum0kxx5h7v04xd76uqccnney8fmpqehluevqge7jxa
You also receive a Private Key, called an ‘nsec’, which must be kept confidential. It’s important to ensure your nsec remains private to secure your account.
If you’re using a computer instead of the Primal app, browsers based on Google’s Chromium (like Chrome, Brave, or Edge) work best.
To log in securely with a browser, it’s recommended to use an extension called nos2x. You can install it from the Chrome Web Store: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/nos2x/kpgefcfmnafjgpblomihpgmejjdanjjp
Once installed, you can enter your nsec into the nos2x extension. From then on, any website compatible with the Nostr protocol will prompt you to authorise it through the extension to ‘log in’—eliminating the need to copy and paste your nsec into websites. This method is far more secure and helps prevent accidental exposure of your private key.
See you on Nostr 😃

I’m not aware of an event by that exact name, but there’s the annual “Running Bitcoin Challenge” on Jan 10th. This event involves running/walking 21km (one “Hal Fin”) to raise funds for the Hal Finney ALS Research Fund. Some run multiple Hal Fins to push their limits and inspire others.
Hope you guys can join us for the 2025 challenge; it’s shaping up to be a big one!

The birthplace of parkrun. What an incredible experience! Pleased with my sub-700th position 😆
The start felt like a scene straight out of Braveheart—thrilling! With over 6,000 runners and hundreds of enthusiastic volunteers, the event was impressively well-organised.
Nice to bump into some other Bitcoin Runner in the melee.

UK general election prediction: Rishi Sunak will remain one of the many unelected Prime Ministers of the Undemocratic United Kingdom.
Here is a list of the last 5 Prime Ministers who took office without winning a general election first:
1. Rishi Sunak (2022)
2. Liz Truss (2022)
3. Boris Johnson (2019) - won an election after assuming office
4. Theresa May (2016) - won an election after assuming office
5. Gordon Brown (2007)

Just posed this review on the UK AppStore for #Damus. Let’s see if it gets published.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“The Future of Social Media
This app is truly amazing. It allows anyone easy access to the Nostr protocol. Unlike centralised ‘closed box’ social media services such as twitter, instagram and facebook, you don’t need permission to speak, you can’t get shadow banned, there are no algorithms trying to divide/enrage us, and there are no ads - you simply choose who you want to follow. Its integration with bitcoin gives it and its users superpowers.
Thanks to how the Nostr protocol is designed, you can effortlessly migrate your user experience between different Nostr apps, but for now I’m sticking with Damus because it’s trailblazing the way. Keep up the good work guys!” #note1z9p…77j6

Talking of friends, I’ve been trying to keep up with #[2] since she starter her epic 21x10km running challenge on April 1st. Isn’t she amazing! 104km in, with 6 days to go.
