Cashu is cool.

My Goals for this year: 🔸️Run a Bitcoin Node 🔸️Run a Lightning Node 🔸️Set up my own Nostr relay 🔸️Try out Cashu and Fedimint TBU....

I don't run a Bitcoin node, since I don't have a desktop pc or a laptop or a special device or spare cash to buy anything (always decided against it to stack more sats instead). I have seen some options to run a pruned node on an Android mobile device (ABCore). Does anyone have any experience using it? Is it worth it? Is it safe? Pros and cons? If anyone has some opinions please share. I'd appreciate any help.

It seems my Nostr feed is quite limited. Is it because of relays? Which relays should I be joining?

Bitcoin only hardware wallets available in Europe/UK?? I'm getting fed up with Ledger 😑

Do you think Elon has already generated an incognito npub and already spying on the developments himself?? I definitely do.

This is cool too. Isn't it.

Has anyone noticed that Bitcoin has been going up 1% every day on average this year in dollar terms. It's been 51 days this year so far and bitcoin gained 51% YTD. 31 December 2023 - 365% up in a year?? Not impossible

I'm so grateful 🙏 💛 to all the FOSS engineers of the world. Direct me to them I'll zap them as gratitude.

Nostr and Nostr clients are evolving and improving so quickly 🤯. This thing just got created a few month ago and it already has at least half a million users. Amethyst seems to be working better and better everyday. They've added zap feature and it feels much faster than yesterday 😃

Any cool tricks to learn on nostr? Or maybe just a general learning material to improve your nostr experience?
