Bitmain is the single biggest threat to #Bitcoin. If you are mining you should really move your hash power away from the Bitmain cartel. Pools to avoid are Antpool, BTC dot com Pool, F2Pool, Binance Pool, Poolin, EMCD, Rawpool, SECPOOL, ULTIMUSPOOL, 1THash, Luxor and sadly Braiins Pool. I currently recommend @OCEAN

Haven't tried @OpenSecret in a while and man, it has improved a lot! On boarding to lightning was easy. Mutiny seems ready to fill the void left by Phoenix.

Got my first payout from @OCEAN via Bolt 12. Pretty awesome. Pleb miners need to unite and leave the AntPool cartel. Ocean and Demand Pool are great alternatives!

Happy to see my wallet software of choice @nunchuk_io on Nostr. Welcome!

I did it! I solo mined a block!

I closed my channel with Phoenix wallet. It's no big deal but they don't give you control over fees even with a collaborative close. They broadcast a TX with an 11 sat/vbyte fee which will confirm... never. Thanks guys. I'm fine closing the channel but don't make me do a CPFP to get my funds back. You're welcome for me paying for a 100 sat/vbyte TX to get the funds back to you confirmed.

I'm not sure why but the Samourai news is the final push I needed to disapear BitcoinLizard from Twitter. I want to delete everything before I shutter the account. I'm willing to use a paid service to remove everything (tweets and likes). Does anyone have any services that they have used personally that you would recommend?

If you are having a hard time understanding #Bitcoin this might help improve your understanding:
