Plebs dont realise how much effort explore-exploit takes and sometimes results in being exploited: first time i tried a lightning app i got scammed. i had a seed, but so did they -- the same one. i got electrum for mobile to try getting the btc back but didnt choose the right Bip, had to go to work and in the meantime lost the sats :( ~ i got some BCH in the blockchain wars but sent it and the BTC to my ledger with a low fee (explr-expli), the BTC got confirmed. i'm still waiting for BCH. Thanks

Another fantastic episode. My mind is still going a mile a minute trying to get my head around the previous episode and what i need to do regarding wallets and such. now i need to figure out how to get some of my retirment funds into bitcoin. So much to think about. Keep up the awesome work.

Thank you so much for answering my questions. I will switch to whirlpool, that was also on my list when I was researching coin join. I’m working on installing sparrow on my node PC now. And although I have a third PC which is my crypto only PC and it rarely goes online, I do still have a fair amount of BTC on a ledger, so I’ll be moving that

I'd like to hear your thoughts on ledgers adjustment after the back lash and the open source announcement

keep the jokes coming lol. The flow chart on all of this ... massive

been worried, listened and watched a few things related to ledger including the wbd pod with the top guy of ledger. they totally missed the point of their core customer based, imo. why not have a separate type of hardware wallet for those who can’t hold their own keys, it’s called custodial bitcoin and a necklace. oh wait, they did that a couple of weeks back.

great show - love the humbleness on the Ledger issue as it was one of the few things I disagreed with in the past episode. Timely info as I’m getting my first Q1, am I being dumb if use it w/o a full node? Full node/ personal server was up next after the hardware wallet.

this is podcast episode is gold, this couldn't have been better timing. I'm in the process of dumping my ledger and nosediving myself into the node rabbit hole. thanks for the insights on wallets. decided to preorder a q1 coldcard, and an airgaped cold wallet for my sh*t coins. was planning on sending all my lightning coins onto my non lightning wallet but after hearing you guys talk about it I might just keep them there, I just get weird about having my coins in a hot wallet.

Loved the great advice on running a node and wallets. Also Mandana jokes and laugh are great at breaking up a serious topic.

First time listening to your podcast. Loved it. keep them coming!

fuck ledger!

I find that FWB is a very awesome podcast. As previously stated, the dynamic duo at FWB provides an experience to the listener who is seeking new information about Bitcoin and life in general. Quite honestly, I wish Fountain had come along sooner. As the sayings go, knowledge is power and sharing is caring. The benefit of being able to support the show vía sats provides another real world use case that many if not all social networks are lacking. Cheers to many more episodes to come from FWB.

FWB061 was a great episode of an awesome show. The great chemistry makes for great dialogue and makes the show all that much more enjoyable than other shows. Thank you for sharing great information with the audience.

Ledger totally create more FUD across the industry which is not doing any good more newcomers. Remember how hard I get my first Ledger living in the South East Asia region (custom is giving me a hard time). Was super excited that time to get my first hardware wallet. Now super disappointed, Ledger really fuck up! As for Wasabi, Matt Odell really support and recommended them during 2019 (in RHR show). Not really sure what happened in between. Still in progress listen back to all the RHR podcast

Super great episode. Geat advice about wallets for this Newbie Bitcoiner, and simple advice about making a node. Great Lightning info too. Will listen again and take notes. Thanks guys <3

good info thank you

tanks you both (or 3) of you for this message. regards

So much great info... but I have a question: I thought Blue Wallet removed their lightning wallet functionality? I loved them before they did this, now looking for an alternative. Thanks as always for helping us newbies out here!

I so <3 the "breaking up" joke... I am still laughing! ;) 00:21:20-00:21:43

great episode. no love for warm wallets? thanks for the info

fantastic episode 😊👍

I fuck with you Ian, for mentioning border wallets. you're a deep OG. Shouts out to your wife as well. She brings balance that even she might not understand. Wish the show could be every day tho. But it's all good tho, the scarcer the better

superb!

If you are running a full node, DON’T FORGET to open the correct port on your router to allow incoming traffic. There is plenty of documentation out ther that details how to do this. Only with both inbound and outbound traffic are you then part of the Bitcoin ecosystem.
