Hi my name is black hole sats and after a year of trying to learn everything I can about running a node, I can’t keep mine online for more than a few days.
The only solution I see is purchasing new hardware.
Can’t any plebs that haven’t failed miserably at setting up a node help me troubleshoot this?

Vicious sanctions**

2023-03-15 16:59:50 UTC

The people of Iran are living under an authoritarian regime as well as visions US sanctions preventing families from sending money to and from each other.
Insane citizen tracking via bank accounts makes it extremely unsafe to move money in any way other than converting it to paper notes.
#bitcoin does not fix this.
And more plebs should be talking about that.
These are the people who need btc the most. And the regime has very effectively established roadblocks that make it extremely risky to send/receive sats.

Thanks. I’m still worried about the regime tracking funds in citizen accounts.
It is nearly impossible to convert the local currency to anything other than its cash form due to sanctions and regime restrictions.
It’s not a safe option to have any transaction in your bank history that would suggest transferring Iranian currency to usd / any sort of crypto exchange.
Will look more into bisq. Thank you for your response 🙏🏻

2023-03-15 07:32:00 UTC

The issue here is transferring fiat out of the regimes fiat banking system.
The only truly private way is to take out cash and then convert that cash to btc.
Does bisq make this possible?
Was having a hard time finding that to be an option with robosats.

2023-03-15 06:52:01 UTC

Trying to think about how Bitcoin can be used as a tool for those living under Irans regime.
With incredibly deep tracking of all citizen bank accounts, and laws forbidding people from buying bitcoin, kyc on ramps are effectively shut down / death traps.
What is the solution to this?
