Im glad more people are finally ditching WoS for Phoenix, Zeus and Breez.
They'll really take off if they can figure out how to implement self-hosted LNURL or something similar.

I had them disabled for stock Sndroid and it stopped all the alerts but todays test alert was able to arbitrarily disregard my settings

- reply

Yes Ive also had the alerts disabled for a few years now, was surprised I still got it today. You didnt get the alert on Graphene?

2023-10-04 18:56:53 UTC

Why even give me the option to do this if it can just be artbitrarily disregarded?
This is stock Android but Im wondering, did Graphene users also get the alert?

Its pretty bullish that the mempool has been permafull ever since ordinal hype took over and yet fees have come down ALOT.
Means the free market does work, spammers want to spam but its too expensive so they bid peanuts = full mempool but low fees.

Fees aren't high right now tho
Just like before its an investment into locking in lower channel opening fees before they go up so the sooner you get into the game the more you will benefit over time especially if you end up becoming a very well connected node.

Even a stock AndroidOS can install APKs so its better than iPhone because youre not locked in a walled garden.
But yes FOSS AndroidOS (Graphene/Calyx) is the way.

Proprietary AndroidOS is no better than iPhone privacy wise, your data is still getting rekt however you aren't locked into a walled garden app store because you can install APKs freely from the internet.
FOSS AndroidOS (Graphene/Calyx) is as based as it gets.

Question for my normie friends who are still using spyware daily (Windows, Mac, iPhone).
Why are you not using Linux / Android?
Whats the hurdle?

2023-06-13 15:03:51 UTC

This is why Apple built the iOS walled garden idk what to tell you.
But having blue text bubbles is more important to 90% of the population rather than owning your phone. 🤷‍♂️

Of course the ideal scenario is for everyone to run and manage their own channels but Phoenix's model is 100% the second best alternative.

2023-05-08 15:06:38 UTC

The high fees will force LN wallet competition.
Phoenix is objectively the superior wallet, Muun is a rubegoldberg machine that doesn't work.
More wallets need to adopt and improve upon what Phoenix wallet has built.

2023-05-08 04:38:41 UTC

Everyone gets lightning channels at the sats/vByte they deserve.

2023-05-08 04:33:13 UTC

Binance says they're finally implementing LN and are using RBF now, all cuz of the high fees.
Necessity is the mother of innovation.

2023-05-07 23:01:32 UTC

Most likely scenario imo
- JSONooors spam the chain and force fees up astronomically
- Get tired of waiting days for confirmations and paying $100+ in fees
- Get bored of the "new technology" and go back to "faster, cheaper" casinos
#Bitcoin is low time-preference technology. The way they're currently using it is very high time-preference.

At some point we can't do the work for people crying
"Fees are too expensive" - Go increase your fucking income
"LN is too hard" - Pick up a fucking book/watch a video
"Self-custody is too complicated" - Have fun using IOUs
You need to do the work, there is no way around it. This is what bitcoin ultimately fixes - the incentive to WORK.

2023-05-06 23:40:18 UTC

I'm tired of shitcoiner and mass adoption maxis (fiat maxis) concern trolling.
- The average person will never self-custody
- LN is too hard for people to learn
- Most people can't afford high fees
Who. Cares.
Life is not fair, if you want something you have to work for it - if you want to self-custody your bitcoin you need to work to afford it and learn how to do it.
The tools and information is readily available for ANYONE who is willing to put in the work, I'm not going to hold your hand for you.
