318 is today after the 2025 ATH. That’s it. That’s the reason & the math. Tomorrow we can use 319 days & re run the math

As long as Reticulum is used with LoRa, WiFi, Weave etc. it should be fine. Even your main focus and the project name suggest using ham radio, the use of other radio techniques should be OK, but limit...

Correct, those bands are open for encryption. The issue is range. I have gotten 25miles on reticulum with HAMSTR, using very directional amtrnnas and the highest power rnode I could find. However the speed drops down insanely slow and packets get dropped all the time.

RN is great, but My focus is more on HF bands.

With ham bands, encryption in 90% of countries is illegal. That's completely fine and not an issue with oppressive governments, emergencies, etc ... So I have it all, like zaps using nwc, in HAMSTR over ham bands too.

Not really the same.

Reticulum cannot legally be used over ham radio bands. It uses encryption. Joorays nutband didn't use nostr or lock to an npub. Literally just sending data between 2 laptops using python. Basically a networking stack. Cool, but not similar at all.

My goal is to have quick deploy integrated hardware using pi zero or similar devices(esp32 possibly eventually). That can connect to a phone for comms, and money.

Encryption limitations aside, decentralized networks threaten fiat's control, akin to Nixon's 1971 gold decoupling.

Ah damn, finally gonna get some CASHU over hamradio using nostr...

https://github.com/LibertyFarmer/hamstr/tree/cashu

I kinda broke my normal rule of developing in public, but I didnt want to get anyone testing something that is completely broken still. With any luck ill get a working version of hamstr with offline cashu integration by this weekend. If i run into more roadblocks, as has been the case for 2 months, it shouldn't be more than a week. i hope...

Simple premise. When online, connect to a mint, verify, get change, send, receive sats. When offline, use hamstr to do its thing over HF radio, Reticulum, VHF Radio to get notes, send notes, reply, and even send nutzaps to nostr users. For now, just send, soon receive. When back online, connect to mint of choice or default mint, and verify wallet proofs and balances.

Seems simple, lol

Then convince people why it's best. Don't call them pedos, make stupid claims, deny a fork will happen, exclude and tell miners they are irrelevant, etc...

No issues. At less than 1sat/vb, I could personally care less about bytes of data in the block chain..at 100, they stop long term. The rate of growth of the blockchain size isn't changing much at all, on par really.

Do better if you want to make a change.
