I have QubesOS laptop and GrapheneOS phone, but it’s so much work to maintain that I always end up using iPhone and Mac.
If you don’t use any prop software yourself, hats off and respect to you!

Are you actually using it?
I haven’t used Breez in years. I thought the app was not getting much love since Breez SDK, but I’m willing to give it a try again.

100%
Also, I’m excited to see the projects that couldn’t be built before because the people who knew how to built hadn’t thought of them.

This could be big deal for Lightning, for instance zaps in Damus, right @npub1xts…kk5s ?

Love this idea! I would try to find some killer use case for an integration that is currently not possible, ie something that slack integrations can’t do well

Thank you. Make sense. The UI said it needs to be at least 100k, I don't remember anything about the fees. Might be worth adding so that people don't think Mutiny is taking it.

2023-11-24 19:31:49

@npub1mut…23vg just sent 100k first invoice to mutiny wallet and it took 40k fee. Why?

Phoenix should be fine. They can love they don't custody any funds. Right? Please prove me wrong.

Who can integrate zaps into discourse? It powers many forums. Sounds like it should be pretty doable with npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm, right?

lower fees would be better
isnt the 0.4% only when opening/slicing channels? and regular lightning payments are smaller, no?

Is there Midjourney that I can pay per image with Lightning, instead of subscription which requires credit card?

2023-08-14 03:19:21

Very bullish on L402 - this is significant problem in AI/ML and Lightning is perfect solution!

Has anyone try AltStore? They claim you can side load apps (ie apps rejected by app store). I guess you enable developer mode and AltStore gives you some profile to install apps signed by them? Does anyone know how it works?

So cool you brought your fam to Prague! I saw your son at the dev/hack/day and thought we should make that a thing... More kids-friendly program so that more kids come to Bitcoin conferences.

Breez SDK demo by Jesse de Wit -- seems super easy to build Lightning enabled apps. He just built a simple Flutter app in 10min on the stage!

This is great. I would love to have some sort of labeling of expenses build into wallet or better the underlying node.

If you need to do any local development or testing with Bitcoin/Lightning, Polar is incredible!
You just need docker and it quickly starts networks for multiple instances of full nodes (ie. bitcoind) and lightning nodes (ie. lnd, cln, eclair) and you can easily configure channels etc, and test your app with it. Great for hacking on lnd, or when I was developing LNBits plugin.

Super interesting. Thanks for reporting.
How will governemtns figure out which UTXOs should be censored?
How will governemtns enforce the censorship if miners can't be located or move to different jurisdiction?
