UTXO is the founder of Nodeless, a product that helps merchants, fundraisers, and other creators accept Bitcoin & Lightning payments without running a node. In our conversation, we explored how UTXO’s past work on BTCPayServer led him to build Nodeless, the benefits and trade-offs of using Nodeless, along with a discussion about other emerging Lightning and Nostr use cases. → Nodeless: https://nodeless.io/ Sponsors → Voltage: https://stacksats.how/voltage → Stakwork: https://stacksats.how/stakwork This show is a Lightning podcast.
