Are you considering adding paywalls in Alby hub?
I am seriously thinking about moving all my savings (which do not generate attractive interest and are devalued) to Bitcoin

**Best Privacy Practices for Withdrawals from an Exchange**
Exchanges where you buy Bitcoin hold your information, which they may share with third parties. These third parties can use technology to track all your transactions, as Bitcoin addresses can be verified on the blockchain. This includes both addresses you receive from and send to, creating a profile of usage and addresses related to that profile. Exchanges can refuse your sats transfers for any reason, and if they believe you are making too many transactions, they may consider you a risky individual.
For better anonymity and to make it more difficult for both the exchange and the third-party company to which they send your information, advanced Bitcoin users recommend:
**Using Small Amounts via Lightning to Transfer to Onchain (see atomic swaps below), less than $300.**
**Running Your Own Node:**
With your own node, you can receive small transactions that are difficult to trace. Invoices created can be decoded but will only show information like the amount and the invoice’s timestamp. They will not reveal other important information since it is encrypted. Additionally, sats jump from node to node until they reach their final destination (your node). Most nodes are on an Onion network, which provides greater anonymity.
**Example of Invoice:**

**Using Atomic Swaps:**
If you want to transfer your sats from the exchange to your BTC address, which could be another wallet of our custodian (with our seed phrase, 12 or 24 words) as a Coldwallet, and you don’t want the exchange to have your final receiving address (since they can create profiles and sending addresses that can be tracked on the blockchain), you can use atomic swaps. You send sats via Lightning and receive sats via Onchain, though there is a fee for the swaps.

Buenas prácticas de privacidad en envíos desde una exchange
Las exchange donde compras Bitcoin poseen tu información las cuales usan para dárselas a un tercero, este tercero pueden ser compañías usando tecnología para rastrear todas tus transacciones ya que las direcciones Bitcoin pueden ser verificadas en la blockchain, las que recibes y las que envías de manera que se crea un perfil de uso y direcciones relacionadas a ese perfil, se sabe que las exchange pueden denegarte tus envíos de sats por cualquier motivo y si creen que estas teniendo demasiado movimiento en tu cuenta pensaran que sos un individuo riesgoso
Para tener un mejor anonimato y que se les dificulte tanto a la exchange como a la empresa tercera a la que le envían tu información ls Bitcoiners avanzados recomiendan:
Utilizar montos pequeños via Lightning para luego pasarlos a Onchain (ver atomic swaps abajo), menores a 300 dólares.
Tener tu propio nodo
Teniendo tu propio nodo podes recibir transacciones pequeñas que son difíciles de rastrear, las invoices creadas se pueden decodificar pero solo mostraran información como el monto el monto y el time stamp del invoice, No mostraran otra información importante dado a que esta encriptado, ademas los sats brincan de nodo en nodo hasta llegar a su destino final (tu nodo); La mayoría de nodos están en una red Onion por lo que da un mayor anonimato.

Utilizar Atomic Swaps
Queremos enviarnos (sacar) nuestros sats de la exchange que estamos utilizando hacia nuestra dirección BTC esta puede ser otra billetera de nuestro custodio (tenemos nuestra frase semilla, 112 o 24 palabras ) como Coldwallet y no queremos que la exchange tenga nuestra dirección final de recepción, ya que pueden crear perfiles y direcciones de envío que se pueden rastrear en la cadena de bloques.
Puedes usar atomic swaps, envías sats via lightning y recibes sats via onchain, claro hay un porcentaje que se paga por hacer los swaps.
Paginas reconocidas y confiables en donde puedes hacer estas transacciones

I bought a bitaxe to learn about mining, at first I connected it with public-Pool, obviously I don't expect to earn Bitcoin by mining with a bitaxe.
I found out that Braiins Pool now has Lightning payments so I decided to create a Braiins account and connect my bitaxe.
Guess who is earning 30 sats a day 🙃😎

How to import your Lightning account from bluewallet to Zeus
Bluewallet no longer has the Tor function, therefore it can no longer connect to our node through this means.
Our existing accounts will not be able to sync and we will not be able to use our sats.
Zeus has the Tor function and we can import the existing account by connecting it to our node and you can continue using it.
Procedure
In the Zeus app in settings press the "+" sign select LNDhub, select Tor and select existing account, (we are going to import the existing Bluewallet wallet) with this we will import all the existing funds that we had.
-In bluewallet copy the account address
In the account press "..."> export/backup
The address will look like this.
E.g.
lndhub://123abc:456defg@http://toraddress.onion
lndhub://user:password@http://toraddress.onion
see image, (1) in username put the numbers and letters before ":"
(2) The password is the numbers and letters after ":" and before @
(3) host is the tor address after @
