- set up a node, open channels, liquidity etc - set up an LNURL server, open ports on your machine etc - you also need a domain and you need to get an SSL cert - you can receive zaps now... as long as you're online forget it anon

I did the first step with Alby Hub. Can I run a cashu mint on the LND backend?

I’ve lost millions of sats running lightning nodes. Mostly my fault, but not always and I don’t recommend it to newbs anymore.

Sounds familiar. I think we should still never give up on this, it still feels like magic that this works - even with some headaches - in a self soveirgn way. Just give people options. PS. I love ecash
But once you do it’s fucking easy and every pleb who does it has learned some valueable skills that might come in handy later.
