With tech like Neuralink, in the future memorizing your seed phrase may become a security vulnerability View quoted note →
#bitaxe is the current tunnel I’m in as I continue down the 🐇 🕳️ .
Going to buy one and assemble it from the board up. View quoted note →
Electronics workstation build is underway. Ordered the following:
> 6’ long wood top workbench
> ESD safe mat
> Weller Digital Soldering Station - WE1010NA
> helping hands for soldering
Going to get maybe 2 20A circuits at the bench.
Still need to buy a decent DC power supply and an oscilloscope.

Is there a way to point the instance of Bitcoin Core on my Mac to the full node I have running on my @Umbrel ☂️? Just have it reference the full copy of the blockchain.
For example, could I do something as dumb and trivial as run
bitcoin-cli getblockchaininfo
from my Mac terminal and get it to return the current status from my Umbrel?
Proof of Work 👇
Protocol -> 30 min HIIT on rower
Mode -> Peloton rower
Supplements -> none
Playlist -> crap the instructor played
Notes -> 1st class on the rower. Different than my usual VO2 max training session but good to switch it up every now and then.


At times I struggle to engage in a meaningful way on Nostr. This is primarily driven by just not knowing what to say on different topics, especially #bitcoin.
I’ve been going down the 🐇 🕳️ for a few years now, but it’s been a solitary journey for the most part. I have one friend who’s into bitcoin, and we primarily talk about price action. My wife didn’t even know I held any BTC until about a week ago when I realized I needed to tell her how to access it in the event something happens to me. And that’s it. None of my friends are into it and most of them still thinks it’s either a scam or too esoteric to dig into.
So in a way, I’ve inadvertently restricted my own language which I believe restricts thought on a topic, in this case being bitcoin. Being here and engaging is lifting those restrictions which is 🤌!
🍻 to all of you on #nostr. I’m happy to be playing a small part in this community. Hope your day is going great and you’re able to stack some sats.

GN my people. Great day today. Hope you can say the same
