Raspberry Pi and the rigors of running a node

Posted 3 months ago

I would like to offer my sincerest apologies to those I had channels open with. My Raspberry Pi Umbrel node got corrupted somehow and I had to redo it. I am back up and running but feel bad that the channels I had got force close as I was down for a week. 

Umbrel App Updates

Posted 4 months ago

Good morning #noderunners! Umbrel, if you're using it for your node, had about 4-5 app updates a couple of days ago. Just a heads-up for you in case you haven't checked in on your node lately.

Nerd Miner

Posted 5 months ago

Any got a Nerd Miner? I got one for myself for fun and it's pretty neat. Lottery miner they call it lol. The hashrate is ridiculously low but it's a neat novelty and, hey, if I do happen to hit a block with it then woohoo for me lol. I just thought I'd ask if anyone out there had one and what you thought of yours.

Back into mining

Posted 5 months ago

I am thinking of getting back into mining small time with some USB ASICs. Might as well keep my hand in all things. The USB miners won't get me much but if I mine on NiceHash I should pull a small bit to transfer to the node. I am finally getting to where I want to be with Bitcoin. Node running and soon a small miner. I will do my part to support the network in any way that I can. Long live Bitcoin and happy mining!

A sincere thank you!

I just want to share my moment of gratitude to all of you who have opened channels to my node and let me open channels to theirs. I look forward to working with everyone to grow and expand the lightning network. Hopefully I can work some magic in my local community to onboard more people. Have a great day everyone!

Owning my part of the network

Posted 6 months ago

I am really excited  and grateful to be able to run a Lightning node. I also run my own personal Nostr relay. I really feel like I own my little corner of the network. No other money or social network has made me feel so fulfilled. I look forward to working with any or many of you as node runners and thanks for those that have taken a chance on me so far and opened channels to my node.

Live free or die! Be blessed
