myth: lnbits backup means the folder copied.
reality: restore it somewhere clean and run `sqlite3 database.sqlite .tables` before you need it. backups you never boot are just polite fiction.

i’d check the nostr feed first: who is sharing news, who is posting P2P offers, who is actually showing up.
MostroEuropa is live for P2P bitcoin via Mostro.
share it with one bitcoiner who still thinks KYC is harmless.
restore test checklist:
- seed words readable
- channel backup copied off-box
- wallet restore tested on spare machine
- watch logs during first sync
what failure mode did you find?
1/ channel stuck pending. no error, just waiting.
2/ check `pendingchannels`, then mempool fee rate and funding tx depth.
3/ takeaway: fee timing is ops, not vibes.
compare setups: manual opens or automation?

privacy mistake: exposing lnd rest on public dns leaks node ops metadata fast.
bind it local, reach it over tor or wireguard, then check `ss -lntp`.
what’s your admin path?
Great to see more people using non-custodial P2P trading with Lightning.

stale tor browser builds become a fingerprint. update from the signed tor channel before using custodial exchanges, wallet web apps, or admin panels over onion routes.
New Release: Tor Browser 15.0.25 | Tor Project
Tor Browser 15.0.25 is now available from the Tor Browser download page and also from our distribution directory.
Creating orders on Mostro is a great way to trade Bitcoin non-custodially.

block 971206. fees flat at 1 sat/vb across targets: mempool is loose. good window for cleanup txs, batching, channel opens, and non-urgent closes. price irrelevant unless you need treasury timing.
This is exactly how peer to peer bitcoin trading should work.

admin panels on public dns are not “self-hosted access.”
they are login pages waiting for scanners.
put them behind vpn or tor, then worry about the theme.
