TBH I don’t know why I business would run 100 of them or something, when I worked at a bitcoin infra company we had like 5-10 at most. My answer is: not sure but I don’t think there is a conspiracy of people pumping the node numbers up bc of the latest drama. It could even be chain analysis trying to trace txn broadcast. https://blossom.primal.net/19d558dda8377205f37c06814b8b1ef9aff852f48b4e1f22de1efc288f550d13.png npub1sp0rex959gshtgypve45upmm4vepxm4xea9eja4f2ftfj97euv5s3rj02v lightningspore My potatoes have grown really long dangling vines so I bought some dirt and buried them in buckets.

Wake me up when there is more interesting stuff to talk about. But the recent comcast "excessive data use" controversy got me moving a little bit. I added this line, to limit my data usage of my node to 10GB per day, to my bitcoin.conf. ``` maxuploadtarget=10000 ``` You can check your data usage like this: ``` $ bitcoin-cli getnettotals { "totalbytesrecv": 1584250, "totalbytessent": 449445, "timemillis": 1756049077506, "uploadtarget": { "timeframe": 86400, "target": 10485760000, "target_reached": false, "serve_historical_blocks": true, "bytes_left_in_cycle": 10485310555, "time_left_in_cycle": 85966 } } ``` But now to the analysis part, if you are still here! ``` $ du -h --max-depth=0 /media/blockdata/bitcoin/ 828G /media/blockdata/bitcoin/ ``` The bitcoin blockchain is 828GB on my machine. That means with my current limit, it will take ~83 peers like me to do a full IBD. Your copy of the bitcoin blockchain is precious! You should back it up from time to time, so that if you nodes database gets corrupted, you don't have to download it all again from the public network. If there are 100K connectable bitcoin full nodes, all with 10GB data cap, as a network we can only onboard 1207 new full nodes, per day. Thats a lot but also not that much. Im sure there are a lot of people out there running with no limits on a large connections who are doing the bulk of the work bootstrapping new nodes, but it is interesting to think about it in the worst case. I think it is a smart move to enable `maxuploadtarget` setting to whatever you think is best, as a general rule. Regardless if people are toying around or not, this is an adversarial network, and you should treat it as such. Don't give people permission to do what they please with your internet connection. @nprofile…0g64 @nprofile…xx35 npub1sp0rex959gshtgypve45upmm4vepxm4xea9eja4f2ftfj97euv5s3rj02v lightningspore lol no I didn’t.

It was really easy, but just one of those things that had to be done. SendGrid got rid of its free tier, which is the main driver, but also when I originally set it up, I wanted to use ProtonMail, but they were only releasing this feature to beta testers at the time and they rejected my application, even though I only send like 10 emails a month. It is a much better experience for me as well, since I can go to my email mailbox and see all of the automated emails, and the contents, that were sent.

I use a shipping website for address normalization as well. Another thing though is Nostr dms aren’t very good, and usually I route people to signal. It’s all doable it’s just interesting.

I wonder if others know good ideas. A lot of you sellers are like “zap me and I’ll send you products”. Like it is never that simple. Even if you had a single product, your next questions are: “where do I send this product?” “What name do I put on the package?” It’s sorta awkward to ask a bitcoiner using a nym what their real name and address is. And then the next piece of difficulty is normalizing addresses people give you. People always forget stuff in their address. The benefit of a real website with a form is you can validate this before the order is ever submitted. Especially for non-US orders, I cannot just look at an address and be like, “yeah that definitely seems reasonable”. So typically I avoid non-US shipping, but sometimes it is worth it. Dealing with customs harmonization codes also makes me wanna scream, so that’s another reason. Just food for thought. What are some of your internal procedures for handling ad-hoc orders on Nostr (or otherwise) which doesn’t require a lot of back and forth with the customer trying to get the basics down? #nostrsellers npub1sp0rex959gshtgypve45upmm4vepxm4xea9eja4f2ftfj97euv5s3rj02v lightningspore GitHub notifications are my favorite notifications… npub1sp0rex959gshtgypve45upmm4vepxm4xea9eja4f2ftfj97euv5s3rj02v lightningspore Sending some seedsigner hardware to some beta testers. Read on to learn more about my thoughts about today… Shipping physical stuff is kind of hard, especially when you only do it occasionally. I have to take time after a day like today and reflect and improve my processes. I feel bad sometimes. At lot of you vendors here are posting about how high quality your products are. But for me, selling electronics in particular, it is really hard to get to the level you get even for like lower quality Chinese Amazon products. Maybe the product is junk, but it is packaged so much better than is possible in my home production mode. All I can do it iterate though. Hopefully if I can get orders more consistently, I can build the processes. Generally, the move is to have products in stock. I can’t be making stuff to-order. #bitcoin #building #seedsigner https://blossom.primal.net/fde5241013e808bca3ffe21726bf58f2f174a190587473105c36c088e03d1bc8.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/dd807545e7f3f2e1181ed7814bd8627ab4f711c116066cfdbf6159614bd116b2.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/5e35e6e77b63e271358b37014ec0c1796e0e5a70425c408ce7ff8b5bff0794e4.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/f74ad7d4112889c190613e023be2f537bfc8b6c622ff72869edbffec01ad6775.jpg npub1sp0rex959gshtgypve45upmm4vepxm4xea9eja4f2ftfj97euv5s3rj02v lightningspore https://blossom.primal.net/036fb22e4ea6a9f60a0c555f435f156cf4e8d889a84fa4a75048fb81fff69a67.jpg npub1sp0rex959gshtgypve45upmm4vepxm4xea9eja4f2ftfj97euv5s3rj02v lightningspore Yeah it does help.
