I had that issue too. If you saved that curl... Line in the block notify section in knots. Then you might need to open and save config again in Datum.
That solved my issue.

What issue did your run into? The most time consuming part was setting up ssh key and using cli to run simpleproxy.

I saw that Fold let's you buy and sell Bitcoin that you can use on your card right away with no transaction fee, but you do have a monthly fee

2024-03-08 22:54:04

Anyone live on Bitcoin? Like the #getonzero folks from a couple years ago?

2023-12-17 22:27:07

Can some explain to me why fees will continue to rise in terms of total sats if the price of Bitcoin goes up?
I get why it will never be 1 sat per byte again if it gets more use.
But when Bitcoin is 2 million per coin, the price in total sats to settle on chain could be less or more depending on demand.
So wouldn't your 100k sat UTXO be fine? It will still cost more in fiat terms but total sats should be less of Bitcoin is worth more?
Am I crazy?
