I live in Northern Ohio with my family. We raise ducks for eggs to sell & eat. My interests include raising ducks, gardening, cryptocurrency, and precious metals. We make and sell fresh-made meat-based dog- and cat-food.
Good morning, @Luke ! Have a great weekend!
@Luke - How long does it take to download the BTC blockchain? It has taken several days to get to 52.79% downloaded.
I have Verizon Unlimited wireless (not 5G) internet at the house, because it is my only option other than DSL (GAG). They say there is not data cap on my usage, but the download speed has dropped significantly (time per block...). I am at block 277923 and it is taking between 20 sec. & over a minute to download a block.
My internet speed is 21.46 Mbs/s down / 11.09Mb/s up. (Speedtest.net)
Once this download is complete, I'm going to copy the folder to another drive and store it as an archive so I don't have to do the whole download again... This is a great optopn to build from scratch, but a little forethought and preparation will prevent me from the agonizing wait in the future.
Coffee is almost ready!

@Luke - do people/groups host their own NOSTR nodes (relays/servers)? Is there a site you can recommend that would tell more about this? I think I read what ?@Maria2000? said the other day about setting up her own relay or something. It sounded interesting...
Good morning, @Mapletrade! I hope you have a great day!
