Did full maintenance cycle for the @EyeOnOrbit teleport. Now running on Ubuntu 20.04, more storage, @Blockstream satellite update and @BitlinqS version 3.0. And the vineyard is proper again.
Unfortunately, the MIT feasibility subsidy from @zuid_holland didn't come through. It's a lottery in the end and our lottery number (425) was too high to be granting our excellent proposal 😪. But back on feet again. In talks with a 2nd LEO IOT provider!
Proposal for feasibility analysis of integration of @bitlinqs and Optical SatCom almost ready. Final wordsmithing ongoing. Wish me luck and get your roofs ready for beaming laserlight to Space!

🚨 #BlockstreamSatellite will be undergoing a short 2-hour maintenance at 1600-1800 UTC on 3/19/21. We recommend existing Basic and Pro kit users update to the latest version. SDR users will need to upgrade. The update should be available by Tuesday. 🛰️ https://t.co/yJJ71CeBYZ
@kryptografisi@MartyBent@Blockstream Satellite is only 19 degrees elevation. Dish is off-axis paraboloid so indeed it looks like pointing downwards but it really looks 19 degrees up.
Presenting today in the @lacuna_space booth on #TheThingsConference 2021. Drop by the virtual booth and have a look at the first hybrid SatCom solution connecting LEO (@lacuna_space) with GEO (@Blockstream Satellite). Or check out the YouTube video! https://t.co/6DdwjvZGNi

As 2021 comes to an end bitcoin blocks are flowing in from @Blockstream Satellite, powering the Bitcoin node, the #LightningNetwork node and the Bitlinq message handler. Happy newyear!

Merry Xmas & Happy Newyear. Message send out through our service and globally broadcasted by @Blockstream Satellite. And received again in the @EyeOnOrbit teleport. Thanks also to @lacuna_space for all the support this year. We will be back in 2021 for global roll-out!
Blockstream CEO @adam3us talks about exchanges and others needing high availability using #BlockstreamSatellite as a separate reliable source of #Bitcoin data to prevent certain kinds of network attacks. 🛰️🌐 https://t.co/yJJ71CeBYZ
Updating the BitlinqAPI python code. Chasing this bug for a few days that apparantly underscores (=____) are not allowed in @telegram messages (that are used for status control)
Running #LightningNetwork node for paying for the @Blockstream Satellite service. It only has 150.000 sats in 2 channels as one message only costs ~25 sats. Now node cannot pay because of the high-fee BTC market. Not going to add liquidity because of same reason. Frustrating.
