"This is the core problem of democracy. It favors sheep, not wolves. Lemmings will win elections and happily throw themselves off cliffs. Because of this, the more time that passes, the more draconian our societies will become. The more enslaved their citizens. The only thing we can do as individuals is focusing on the tools we have at hand. Bitcoin is the ultimate form of money since it has no ties to any state or institution. Being the best form of money is also the ultimate time-saving tool. The perfect freedom tool." Knut Svanholm in BITCOIN: EVERYTHING DIVIDEND BY 21 MILLION

"In 2008, an anonymous programmer released a paper that led to the discovery of a new element. An element with a fixed suppl and without mass. A substance that exists only in the informational realm. A type of money that can represent the scarcity of human life. [...] An asset that you can store in yout head. [...] A perfect measurement tool for the value of human time. A tool to limit the profitability of violence and false promises. A connection between time, information, and morality" - Knut Svanholm in "BITCOIN: EVERYTHING DIVIDED BY 21 MILLION"

Studying Bitcoin has been one of the easiest learning trails to start understand the driving forces in today's world. That is amazing and quite counter intuitive. It is the analogy of throwing babies into the pool to "teach" them how to swim.

I have been a tiny bit absorbed by re-modeling my mobile data infrastructure 😅 . Seeing cool apps (the ones that integrate Bitcoin as a global payment rail) get kicked out of the App Store and Play Store has prompted me to abandon the iPhone. I bought a Pixel 8 pro, installed grapheneOS, and had to find replacement apps for my stuff. I also setup Nextcloud and linked everything together. Two weeks in, I am still down some critical apps, but luckily, only on the leisure part of life: I need two robust apps for sailing (Navionics don't work, PredictWind and Windy need Google Play Services).

@npub1qny…95gx , I thought about you calling out @npub15dq…lm5m for not investing in open-source development. Bitcoin is freedom money, implying that I am free to do with it as I please (including donating to OpenSats, HRF, etc.). For Bitcoin to be generational wealth, must I not demonstrate to my heirs and everybody else that I can and will withstand public attacks like yours on Saylor? It is only natural that Bitcoin owners will be bullied into parting with their coins for this reason or that. I am sure you know this; perhaps you are trolling and testing the space. I much respect your work.

I upgraded to core lightning v24.02 and RTL v0.15.0, opened my first dual-funded channel ... and opened a stable channel (https://github.com/toneloc/stable-channels). A stable channel is a lightning channel that maintains a stable USD balance for one of the channel partners.

Haha - for sure, Sandro. `happiness = reality - expectation` - I expected these old miles to be gone entirely and so I was positively surprised. Now, all I can do is hope that nobody invested their life savings in airline miles because of my post.

I just booked my flight to https://bitcoinatlantis.com/ and am looking forward to this mega event. I was totally surprised to see that I could pay for the flight with "Miles & More" miles I collected ages ago (between 2000 and 2007). So, it seems that airline miles are a much better SoV than most shitcoins.

2023-11-28 05:22:05

I found that there are no shortcuts. The more my life depends on stuff I don't understand, the less I feel at ease. For me, it was and is worth to spend the time to dig deep; sometimes, I return from my studies as a different person, most often as a happier.

For the freaks who contemplate running a lightning node, I wanted to share my experience with [core lightning](https://corelightning.org/). #noderunner
[MINDLINER](https://1ml.com/node/03830ecd6fefbfc926a35ba474e56bb7466402570843b4936fbd984b7fbb213ac7), my first node went online five years ago. I assumed that running lightningd was similar to running bitcoind, i.e., download, start, forget. I was opening a few channels but failed to invest the time to understand the inner workings. As a result, most of the payments failed unless I opened a channel directly to the vendor. I bought [some stickers](https://cdn.satellite.earth/15781c2eae2783547168ae02ec6c4525e92d6b662c427793c3406478916cfb71.jpg "All I Got Was This Sticker") and updated some pixels at [Satoshhi's Place](https://satoshis.place). After a year, I closed the channels and decommissioned the node.
My next node was [KONTIKI](https://1ml.com/node/0322154776b0814c78b2675e34c232d91335ce7ad25137a079adfdb9db279429f1), and it was running slightly better. One morning, my node had a new name: "Slickerglee." I don't know what happened. Was I hacked? I did not have the time to investigate the situation. Happy that I still had my funds, I closed the channels and decommissioned ... "Slickerglee."
With my next node, a [Raspiblitz](https://github.com/raspiblitz/raspiblitz "GitHub - raspiblitz/raspiblitz: Get your own Bitcoin & Lightning Node running - on a RaspberryPi with a nice LCD"), I made a tiny move towards de-centralization. The Raspiblitz works very well, and for the first time, I had a lightning node I could use for day-to-day payments (from sending zaps of a few sats to paying hosting invoices of several hundred dollars). In fact, I only began to appreciate _how_ well the Raspiblitz software package works after I started changing/upgrading stuff manually. Soon, I realized that I was sitting at the helm of on a rather large ship, not knowing how to maneuver.
I wanted my fourth and current node [MindlinerTre](https://amboss.space/node/02d695b01c7a6909e716c863fb39bc5fb7bbdc3824b7fdce53adc593e5be080e73 "MindlinerTre - 02d695...080e73 - Amboss Space") to become a valuable routing node. In addition, I also wanted to understand how it works and eliminate at least a few of the blind spots in my understanding. I started out with a bare metal server and, for three weeks, stacked layers upon layers to finally have all parts working. And there is still much work left.
Conclusion: It was definitely worth my time, and I appreciate the learning. There is a choice to make between two viable options: Either putting in the time to learn about the dozens of crucial components or running a well-functioning Raspiblitz (and refraining from altering it and accepting not understanding much of the setup). And now, of course, you can even run a personal node [on your phone](https://zeusln.app/), which offers a new set of possibilities.

2023-10-24 15:14:01

With this extension to my roof (connected since yesterday), my lightning node has become more resilient to power outages. On another note (no, literally this one), it is tough to run a lightning node _and_ understand what it is doing. Run a Raspiblitz, and everything works miraculously (cool stuff; until you start changing stuff manually). Or set everything up yourself (with help from https://bitcointv.com/w/rUELmYfAz9V7L7hZW9gq2b) and go to the deep end sweating and cursing 🎱. Either way - it is worth going for it. https://cdn.satellite.earth/a5fd99f725d29735c4bf98f6fa8b199b67b4a9f434c4e09b248ed462b2136fd4.jpg

He was really going strong (Skin in the Game, Antifragile, The Black Swan), and then he mysteriously got off the rails. Perhaps he just stumbled over #Bitcoin. For an accomplished trader, a deep and independent thinker, it must be hard to admit to being wrong on such an essential aspect of our society. So he chose to [talk badly about Bitcoin](https://medium.com/incerto/bitcoin-is-the-detector-of-imbeciles-e5cc5eeccdbf) to ease the pain of cognitive dissonance.
