Thank you kind sir but I’ll stick to staying humble and stacking sats. image

I love @BTCPay Server and have been using it for years. Recently, I sold over 500 BitAxes, and the server didn't even flinch. Now, with the @strike API, it's gotten even better. So, I made a review! Check it out here:

So we have an empty mempool, F2Poool censoring transactions, Foundry getting bigger than ever and Mara cozying up with the president. Feels like we are on the wrong track tbh

And you still think miners are freedom maxis? The state capture of bitcoin is happening right before our eyes. image

I honestly find zapvertisements rather annoying and intrusive.

Zapping a few sats on NOSTR or donating to your favorite podcast on Fountain are very cool technical achievements. But those few cents are not enough for the creator to make a living. Maybe it works for the biggest voices on NOSTR, but the rest of us are still dependent on ads and sponsors.

Last month we sold 365 BitAxes and made our own mining pool for solo miners. Little did we know that we where the only solo-pool based in Europe, which makes our pool the lowest latency, zero fee mining pool around. We are currently at 50 TH/s of pure pleb mining. Want to try? Go to: Artwork by the legendary @NoGood ✌️ image

I worry about mining pool centralization. The mining industry has grown to an almost incomprehensible scale, and I don't have a perfect solution for this issue. However, I know for sure that education is essential for any solution. The BitAxe is the perfect device for that purpose. It looks cool, is affordable, and is a 'real' miner. When people plug in their BitAxe, they immediately understand how tiny their share of the network is. That's why I decided to sell the BitAxe to my community. It's not about making a profit (given the volatility, I barely break even), but about giving people the chance to learn about mining. We sold 355 BitAxes in a week. Next, we're setting up our own mining pool. The ultimate goal is to mine a block, but the chances are negligible, even with 355 BitAxes. Anyway, it's a very fun project. I'll keep you posted. image

Hey @jack mallers is it correct that Strike RBF's my transaction to keep up with changing fees while it's in the mempool? This is a pretty cool feature that ensures my 'fast' withdrawal is actually fast, even if the next block takes a while. image
