My summer of bitcoin student @npub1d2x…eu8n really went above an beyond and even got a PR merged into bitcoin core. He took on a challenging project to make the BDK bitcoind_rpc crate work with prunded full nodes by using the scantxoutset rpc command.
Check out the details on his blog post here:

Which wallet did you use? it has to be one that supports BIP-353 and BOLT-12 offers, for example Phoenix.

If Milei's stance on bitcoin is that it's a "return of money to its original creator, the private sector", then I 100% support that plan. Nothing is needed from any government but to get out of the way!

#eclair is probably the most advanced on running a big HA node, see https://github.com/ACINQ/eclair/blob/master/docs/Cluster.md

I've seen these things in the Oresund between Sweden and Denmark, they are an eyesore and certainly produce (unreliably) a small fraction of the power the decommissioned nukes in the area used to produce. The same will be true in the US.https://m.primal.net/HlSm.jpg

I'm first getting a 302 that redirects me to "https://www.sec.gov/core/install.php" which has the 404. So not just down, but running some old janky drupal 10 php web server.

Sounds like a great project! check out @npub1ree…9ty4's Monday app which is an example iOS wallet built with BDK and LDK Node. It's still in an early state but I've used it to successfully on my phone to create channels to an LN node of my choice and send payments to my Phoenix wallet and to @npub1the…4dha's BTCPayServer. 🎉

Thanks! Even with @npub19fy…d5hk connectivity is limited but here’s the first dynasty “Namer Palette” c3000 BC!

Saw this at a local Russian market, they know what’s up. Really need “Pay with #bitcoin and save!” versions of this sign. https://image.nostr.build/192eaaa0a1b81735520691fcfa923d02b1b1e2f13b232b4a0fcb8a32f5d93e30.jpg

Imaging using nostr to coordinate transaction signing for a taproot/miniscript based onchain complex multisig wallet.. that’s what #[0] and #[1] are working on with coinstr.. and it looks very cool!
