Self hosted budget app suggestions from Jon
1. Kresus : https://kresus.org (npm or Docker) more for Europeen people I suppose as it connects to your bank to do the sync automagically.
2. Cozy Banks : https://cozy.io/en/features/#bank Cozy is like a simplier nextcloud with a bank app integrated similar to Kresus
2. Buckets™ : https://www.budgetwithbuckets.com (client only). I like there blog, it's a couple developping it.
3. Actual https://actualbudget.com (more on github with Docker https://github.com/actualbudget/actual)

Bitcoindad and Chris, where can i find the most comprehensive listing of all options for a bitcoin.conf file, with those options put in laymans terms (or at least somewhat clear terms)? Lots of random examples of .conf files out there, but have yet to find anything comprehensive. Chris: Your enthusiasm for Rust got me interested, and now down a coding journey. Thanks and keep Stacking!

In the interests of show research you must now visit Bitcoin Island Philipines, Bitcoin Lake Guatemala, Lugano Switzerland and Madeira. 👍

What's with all the libertarian hate? Justifying fraud is not libertarian; That's the all-day job of politicians and their supporters. Great show otherwise, y'all are one of the few podcasts I never miss in my limited listening time.

Love the show! I’m a newcomer here, so forgive me if you’ve talked about this before: What are your thoughts on Monero? From what I’ve read it seems to fix a lot of the privacy concerns people have with Bitcoin, with no additional steps required. Do you think Monero could be a viable replacement for Bitcoin? Or is there room for both to coexist?

I often enjoy the Energy section. So I'm giving a counter to the other boosts saying keep up the energy section! (If you want to, of course)
