Swan Lounge: Fully Noded

Swan Lounge: Fully Noded

Author: Swan Bitcoin, Brekkie von Bitcoin September 4, 2021 Duration: 58:26
This week on Swan Lounge we are going to dive back into the Lightning Network and the importance of running your own Bitcoin full node (with Lightning!). We'll talk about some ways you can start getting involved with Lightning, how to run your own node and why you should do so, as well as the ways people are making their full nodes their own through customization made possible by companies like CryptoCloaks.

Each week on Swan Lounge, Brekkie von Bitcoin and the team at Swan Bitcoin host a free-flowing conversation that feels more like a gathering of friends than a formal broadcast. The show connects with a diverse range of Bitcoiners-developers, entrepreneurs, artists, and everyday adopters-to unpack the latest news, technical developments, and cultural shifts within the ecosystem. These discussions move beyond price speculation to explore the real-world implications of a decentralized monetary network, offering nuanced perspectives you won't find in mainstream headlines. Originally streamed live across social platforms, the audio is curated for this podcast, preserving the spontaneity and depth of each dialogue. Tuning in provides a grounded, thoughtful take on the ongoing evolution of Bitcoin, serving as a weekly check-in for anyone curious about where the technology is headed next. It’s a consistent space for authentic insight, reflecting the many voices that make up this global community.
