@githubprojects Interesting. Can it process #opensource money like #BTCpayserver?
#digitalcash #p2pdigitalcash #opensourcemoney #btc #xmr #monero
@thendrix @lain it can be a currency, and the best one that humanity has ever seen, lookup #btcpayserver (layer2) and #fedimint (layer 3)
they both require ppl to take ownership and responsibility of computer security in their locality or community, however, and so thats why i am still skeptical as to whether we can make it.
@silverpill all the cryptos have tradeoffs, the issue with monero is an inflation bug may lay hidden for a long time. also i'm unaware of any layer 2 for monero that would help it scale, but ive not had a chance to research as much as i'd like.
bitcoin is as private as a person makes it, if a person is to lazy to think about privacy and declares to the world they own coins then that's their choice, i actually don't mind the mildly traceable aspect of it, it gives people an incentive to think about operational privacy and not just blockchain privacy. i think its good for holding govts accountable too, people should see what they are doing.
i know that bitcoin Core (layer 1) can operate over tor and i2p but btcpayserver (L2) operates over tor and i don't know if it operates over i2p, if it does support i2p then i'd be super supportive of mitra being compatible with the btcpayserver api.
if #btcpayserver doesn't do i2p i'd personally give priority to that.
some more #btcpayserver resources to take ownership of money.....

Has anyone successfully setup #BTCPayServer to federate over #I2P network, rather than than Tor?
From this resource it would appear not:

While on the topic of #federated systems, aren't #bitcoiners embarrassed that they're on the invasive #MSGitHub platform? This question extends to #fedizens who list the #MicroShaft forge prominently in their bio.
The sooner we use alternative #forges day-to-day, or move to something like #ForgeFed the better.
Anyone in #retail have experience setting up #BTCPayServer?
How difficult is it? How many #lightingChannels does one generally need to have open in order to have lightning payments work reliably?
For those who might not know BTCPayServer is #FOSS and designed for Layer2 Bitcoin, ie. what most people consider as the #LightningNetwork, which is designed to operate over #P2P networks, like Tor, to protect the identity of the payer as best as possible.
...and yes of course there is no substitute for #Bitcoin and running #BitcoinCore and #BTCPayServer on your #gnuLinux over #I2P communication, with at least 15 #LightningNetwork connections that enable hundreds of transactions per second for your #smallBusiness if you require it.
But failing that, as ***many*** do, we must recommend cheques.
...and yes of couse there is no substitute for #Bitcoin and running #BitcoinCore and #BTCPayServer on your #gnuLinux over #I2P communication, with at least 15 #LightningNetwork connections that enable millions of transactions per second for your small business if you require it.
But yes, failing that we now highly recommend cheques.
