They deserve bankruptcy! You don't go from "the seed phrase never leaves the device" to "oh yeah it's fine we'll keep your seed for you" without consequences.


I don't have a ledger and I want to ask is this about ledger update i read about. they offer storing your seed ``securely``? it sounds like huge security hazard that could happen. i agree with you if this is it.

Another month, another improvement. But I also paid quite a few sats in rebalancing. Probably it was almost the same as I got from forwarding payments! Never tracked how much I spent in fees for rebalancing channels!

Congratulations. rebalancing is costly. Channels should be chosen so that manual rebalancing isn't necessary and balancing happens naturall but it's possible that it's required to have multiple larger channels to achieve that

Do you have full archival node? Because if you do, then I wonder how many times it crashed, and you had to reindex it.

if you are worried about corrupted data, you should invest into some redundancy with multiple disks. zfs has self-healing capabilities with snapshots and lvm has snapshots too. take snapshots of the bitcoin data folder at some intervals and you can return to previous state and restart bitcoin with no reindex.

I have some experience with lightning nodes. It would be interesting to pilot something small. Does anybody think that there would be some use cases here on bitcoin talk? I registered when i saw this topic Smiley
