with Sovereign? maybe @nprofile…nsng can assist you, he is the Sovereign Dev and CEO
I have lost thousands of sats on all cashu wallets, all of them have risk, but more often than not what I thought lost was not lost, it could be recovered in one way or another
I just tested again the minting.
For the sake of helping, in case you missed a step
1. click on receive
2. Click on Mint Token
3. Select the amount and mint
4. copy the Lighting Network invoice (you are funding the wallet)
5. open the LN⚡ wallet you will be using to send the funds, I just used Minibits to pay a invoice I created
6. pay the invoice
7 open Sovereign app again, the funds should be there or shortly
By experience, if you used Wallet of Satoshi or any other wallet like Phoenix the funds may be on flight , last time it happened to me I was funding minibits, took 8 hours, I thought I lost the sats but they arrived.
Hope this helps

@nprofile…s8dt, Is there a guide to enable the notifications in #Amethyst successfully?
My experience so far have been non positive:
The steps suppose to be simple:
1. Install NTFY
2. Open Amethyst and go to settings, select "Push Notifications", select NTFY
https://image.nostr.build/34bc6dee48112d775f4ea435077b95901f3ab9fa5c6509dbdacd078440afc9c9.jpg
Done, very simple, but, didn't work for me... No notifications arrived for zaps or DMs, okay, troubleshooting time... Clear cache in both apps, nope, checked I have good trustable relays for DMs, yep, all good, uninstalled NTFY, installed again, repeated the process, worked!
Hmmm, but why? Need to know... Uninstalled NFTY again, installed it again, repeated the process, no dice, not working, repeated the process around 10 times, no dice :(
Anyone with a similar experience that can give me a hint as to what it can be the problem?
@nprofile…s8dt, Any plans to add native notifications to the app?

If you have not test Amethyst yet you are missing out, that team has gone above and beyond to create the best Nostr experience so far. Short of a bad ass built-in wallet (cough cough, perhaps a surprise is coming with a partnership, although the NWC works perfectly, but newbs need one click solutions)
Have you tried Amethyst?

The trade offs of simplicity to encourage adoption and the CyberSecurity component is always a pickle...
Suggestions:
Mobile: Using the sensors, asking the user during sign in to perform a shake could help. **"shake - to - proof - humanity"**, the downside is that desktop users would need a different approach and we have many but it will help to reduce some of the spammers.
Desktop: a small game to sign in would help, making the bots less efficient.

Love it when the community let know the platform that is using that its critics are disconnected from reality...
By rule of thumb, low critic rating matched by high people's rating tends to be a good watch. Hopefully this one will be one of those cases :)

The Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 (#MH370) disappeared on March 8, 2014...
In the 21 century, with every inch of the air space of the planet monitored 24/7 the population is told the governments and the airline has no clue what happened to the plane...
It is incredible that we have still people in this world that trust the MSM and the governments as having their best interest and being predominantly honest

Use your own relays to backup your data, support relays that do not censor content, expose relays that engage in censorship, the ethos of Nostr is to be decentralized and censorship resistant... Yet, the trend is going the other way and most influencers in the space are unapologetic using the relays and front ends that engage in censorship

Some things never change...
"The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers.".

Any reason specifically to use Primal instead of Amethyst, just curious in case I missed something

2024-09-04 11:26:28

- reply

Being testing Primal and Amethyst for a while and the user experience in Primal is not better than with Amethyst, in fact Primal fails in three areas that need work:
1. Follower count, Amethyst is slow to show them, it query them every time and the user can observe the number adding up, in Primal the algorithm is broken, shows less followers, it is innacurate, probably due to relayer "filtering", not good
2. The badges may be useless but they are cool, Primal fails to depict them
3. Zapping using other wallets than the native to the app Primal is slow and often fails
Is Primal your default Nostr front end to go? If so, Why? Seems quite deficient in comparison with the alternative,
Maybe I am missing something...

it will depend on the Mint you are transacting with.
In Minibits, click on Settings -> Manage mints.
I will assume you fund one already with some sats to transact. Select it or click on it, once you do that a small menu will open, select "Mint information page"
All the information about that Mint are there for all its users, including the limits for deposits and withdraw, in the default Mint both are capped at 1,000,000 sats and the minimum to 0... So 1 sat
Hope this helps

NVIDIA has announced a new project in the field of AI aimed at creating “humanoid robots” that are capable of learning new skills and solving complex tasks by studying human behavior.
So,.10 to 15 years until we get one at home doing all chores, taking care of the children and elders... and... all high end factories full of them doing the current low paid jobs....
Sometimes I wonder how long time the system has left before it implodes. ..
A change like this implies that new sources of job and income are required to mantain the population living standards...
All factories will want to reduce costs and remove their workers for droids that will do it cheaper and better in most cases,
The irony? If you let go all factory employees you will have less clients with money across the board and therefore less sells, many of those factories will go bankrupt. ..The money flow is a complicated matter.
Government oversight is required to create a plan and regulate usage in order to avoid the collapse of the system, if only we had competent government officials...
Nowadays , it is my opinion, we have the most incompetent politicians and government officials across the board (in western countries) in the known history of "democracy" (which is nothing but an illusion of choice for the weak minded majority, but that is another complicated subject....)

Always following and learning of all things crypto currencies, watching the rise and fall of many non sense projects, the rise and fall of some interesting projects misguided by greed and lack of transparency but the Monero case is one of its own.
The more I learn about the XMR technology the more impressed I am, I wish we could add some of it to Bitcoin so BTC could ve used as money suppose to be, private, anonymous and secure.
A layer 2 solution with the features of Monero is a must for BTC, meanwhile, a very nice gold 2.0, holding and when required to spend online with your private wallets , you need to perform a coinjoin for spend or an atomic swap into a brand new wallet to spend it...Not ideal as money unless you are in a CEX and you just don't care about your privacy and you just care about price appreciation and nothing else, IMO most non tech savvy people, which is the majority.
Monero will be prosecuted, demonized and attacked to exhaustion, yet, it will survive everything for it is designed for that and better at it than any other token.
Now, the price appreciation of Monero is a very interesting development to watch, a free market once all CEXs drop it will decide the price, meanwhile watching the price moves while is dumped by others like Kraken will be interesting, the utility of the token as a payment token is clear and widely used by the tech savvy...

The market show its cards the day before, the strategy was a dump, cypher punks were ready, IMO, countermeasures were deployed, the planned dump failed, money will start flowing into the ETFs gradually, tik tok until next move...

Bloomberg Senior ETF Analyst, Eric Balchunas, on spot Bitcoin ETF approvals:
“Yeah it’s basically done. Latest I’m hearing (from multiple sources) that final S-1s are due 8am on Monday as SEC is trying to line everyone up for January 11th launch..”
Interesting weekend ahead

Matrixport & Cointelegragh.... Same day FUD.....
Coincidence?
The same day that Blackrock is seeding their ETF... aha....
If you have been around for some time you already know that Cointelegragh OS not to be trusted, neither Matrixport...

Interesting, every person is different, some people are immune to the coffee effect, in my case, I can drink a black coffee at night and sleep 8 hours perfectly.
I assume that for some it create addiction since it has a strong effect in their body, I know people that can't function in the morning until they have a coffee. I have to admit that I always thought about it as interesting, they can take a coffee and stay alert, I would fall sleep the same.

If the fees are high enough, the miners will have a healthier business, and be able to growth their business securely. And will hold more BTC as reserve.
Still, they will sell BTC to pay for their OPEX, that will not change until the OPEX can be paid in BTC.
Bear in mind that miners are Bitcoin sellers by default, that is the business model...

Are you observing tangible benefits?

Don't pay attention to the noise and the words, but the actions, what is being done, not looking good at the moment.
Hopefully we will see some tangible changes that are in line with the ethos of Bitcoin.
Either way, the management of the situation has been quite disappointing creating more division in the community, I only observe a zero sum gain scenario for Ocean and a negative PR that will be difficult to recover from.

Got it, by the way, I use Umbrel with https using tailscale, works well.
But, I like your setup, more robust and reliable for sure. Umbrel OS is a fun toy to play with, at least for me, the main HW for nodes and sovereign cloud services needs to be more robust 👍

Agree, Star9 is quite superior if you need more than simply a node, electrum and dojo.
I do not feel is a good practice to mix anything with a Bitcon node that is not related, therefore, star9 is a setting I use only for self sovereign server with cloud services, but no Bitcoin, I try to remove any possible additional attack vector to the device.
Umbrel OS works without stability issues if not mixed with anything else but Node, electrum and dojo,.
I think both are awesome, but each one for a different use case.
Did you buy the star9 HW solution or install it in a server of your own?

The TOR side needs to be enabled, that is not built in yet (work in progress)
You need to install ORBOT, enable it as a VPN or just use it for selected apps, of the first, once running, it will connect.
if the second, you will have orbit running the same but it will tunnel via TOR only the selected apps
Until Bluewallet is not connected to the TOR network it won't reach your electrum server, inconvenient, but works.

Yep, not for me either
Wonder what issues you are getting with Blue, never had one, pretty solid for me. I mean, you stated is crashing, just wonder why does that to you, quite odd. Did you find online other people having a similar issue as you do?

Curious on why you gave up dojo?
Green... Be mindful of your recovery protocol, specially if you create new seeds

Android:
Samourai Wallet connected to your dojo server installed in your Umbrel OS for best in class privacy transactions and coin control. FOSS and the team is unapologetic hard core libertarians
Bluewallet connected to electrum server for on chain transactions, some decent features and FOSS.
Phoenix for LN does the job very well, FOSS as well and IMO beat in class for lightning network, just open a big channel the first time, so you don't have to pay high fees for channel capacity every time you do a bit higher transactions, most people don't do their research and wrongly state the fees are high, not true, they just don't know what they are doing and therefore use Phoenix as if it was any other non custodial wallet like WOT

Hopefully not! But Japan, oh well, it depends, every time I go I see quite similar behavior, in the metro most people down in their mobiles or manga magazines, no talking ever, only "emails" (funny, no texting , emailing, now changing a bit), night life vibrant, in Tokio, Ropongi always alive, bars full , restaurants full, the more they drink the more they share :)
Then, there is karaoke, the culture is built for sharing but tech is slowly pushing them towards isolation, I don't think is taking strongly though
In the EU, this last summer had the luck to visit a couple Mediterranean countries and the social life is very busy, it was refreshing to observe young people still having fun out as thr old still keep doing. And eastern Europe even more, the slavics are incredibly social and South America , well ... Hard to believe that Brazilians or Venezuelans or Puerto Ricans or Cubans will stop partying every weekend like there is no tomorrow... LOL such a happy people!

Amusing asnwers playing contrarian,
IMO, this was to be expected, it is a soace of people behind Bitcoin, LN, decentralization and Privacy oriented , a tribe, therefore, it is only natural most people would be quite often in the same page.
Additionally, most hard core bitcoiners are well known for not holding back and saying it like it is, some of them quite hardly, therefore, I would assume some fragile egos out there will think twice before attacking the tribe...

Bitcoin is 110% up this year and still some YT influenceer are bearish or very negative on the Bitcoin future and the ETFs potential impact, it is already hard to watch,
Those influencers have hundreds of thousands of subscribers, paid subscriptions to newsletters, private paid channels, and, despite all the evidence against them, they are still in business, there is a market for all narratives even the most unsubstantiated ones... Amusing

Jack, Do you have in the road map Zelle transfers planned?
IBTC LN or BTC On Chain to Zelle account of a friend, quite convenient, no need to withdraw from Strike to make a Zelle payment
