If you don't know 402 Payment Required (nprofile…6ymr) channle on bitcointv.com go visit it immediatly. It's the most valuable stack of Bitcoin and privacy tutorial out there. The LN node full tutorial was used to create a "make your LN node workshop" at my local Bitcoin meetup, then I spent countless hours rewatching these videos to fix, uograde and fine tune my node. It's running much better than my Umbrel and I know everything around it, every service running, every ports open, that I can trust it much more. For sure it's not as easier, you might want start with Alby Hub, Umbrel, Start9 or another of these OS/preconfigured environnement, but eventually, if you are really serious about it, you will want to do it all by yourself, the way you need it and want it. 402's tutorial was the only sourcing helping in this way.
Thank you 402 Payment Required (nprofile…6ymr) !

As btc goes mainstream, companies will get captured and products compromised. Nowadays, most who LARP "trust don't verify" are unable to interact with the bitcoin network without "help" from 3rd parties. Asserting your sovereignty is more important than ever!

If you're not validating your own receiving tx privately, YNGMI. Visit my YT channel and get your shit together.

So how much is a privacy preserving *budget* BTC node accessible from anywhere in the world through clearnet/tor/i2p that you can remotely manage and point your wallets to?
