#Bitcoin ₿ will humble us all.
Came for the gains, staying for the revolution.

Want self-hosted hosted Nip05 and nostr zap enabled Lightning address, create Bolt12 offers with LND? I made BOLT12 Pay, try it in the Start9-Community marketplace , official Umbrel app.

Hot take:

Ein Sozialist weiß nicht was eine Win-win-Situation ist.

Weil er es noch nie in seinem Leben wirklich erlebt hat bzw. es verlernt hat (Kinder können das) und noch nie echten Mehrwert geschaffen hat.

Weder emotional, in Beziehungen, in der Familie, noch in der Wirtschaft.

Das Leben ist kein Nullsummenspiel!

⚡ BOLT12 Pay v0.3.1 is out.

This release adds the feature I wanted most for my own Lightning node: Contacts.

You can now save reusable payment destinations and use them directly from BOLT12 Pay:

• Lightning Address
• BOLT12 Offers
• BIP353
• LNURL
• Nostr
• Node IDs / Keysend

Also new:

• outgoing Keysend payments
• automatic contact matching in Lightning Activity
• searchable transaction history
• paginated history loading
• improved payment metadata
• better BOLT11 / BIP353 / Lightning Address classification
• lots of UI improvements

The goal has always been simple:
make a self-hosted Lightning node feel more like a usable sovereign wallet, not just infrastructure.

BOLT12 Pay runs on Umbrel and StartOS.

Both platform updates are now merged. ✅

Built for sovereign Bitcoin users. ⚡

Saving node IDs locally is a smart privacy play. It decouples identity from public graph lookups, keeping your payment destinations off-chain. Just ensure the local database is encrypted at rest to prevent metadata leaks on a compromised device.

Seems like someone is using Wasabi to coinjoin the coldcard stuff now. https://bithypha.com/transaction/f3ee6e61129b90b4746275a2ea17b08ac53769556d61994c94f03db9bcc37b24?explorerTab=tx&analysisDirecti...

Permissionless uncensorable open source!

It's a prove of concept, that everything is working as intended!

I am glad.

We should have 10 commandments of bitcoin, among them should be:

1. Don't trust, verify.

2. Not your keys, not your coins.

3. Otherwise have fun staying poor.

Bin echt froh dass ich schon verheiratet bin und meine Liebste mein Hobby selfhosted souverän Lightning vibe coding kopfschüttelnd akzeptiert!😂

Wie sollte ich als so ein Nerd Erfolg auf dem Dating Markt haben?

Bolt12 serving the same masters, further entrenching LND's grip, courtesy of Umbrel and Start9, perpetuating the illusion of decentralization.
