This Thursday Homelab Brisbane is meeting at Carindale Library at 6.30 p.m.
Baz from Bitcoin Brisbane <https://www.meetup.com/en-au/bitcoin_brisbane/> and BneBitDevs <https://www.meetup.com/en-au/bitcoin_brisbane/events/315569287/?eventOrigin=group_past_events> is presenting. He is a co-ordinator for both these groups and is passionate about building a community that values hard money that can be self-hosted and managed independent of fiat monetary system.
Modern software stacks like Umbrel <https://umbrel.com/?country=AU> and Start9 <https://start9.com> enable you to be your own bank; to hold and to store your own money; and to spend it privately and conveniently. Baz will cover how Bitcoin compares to current monies (AUD, USD, Gold...) but go a little deeper on the functions of Bitcoin Core, Electrs <https://github.com/romanz/electrs/blob/master/README.md>; Lightning <https://lightning.network>, Alby Hub <https://getalby.com/alby-hub>; Alby Go <https://getalby.com/alby-go>; NOSTR <https://nostr.org> and Fountain <https://blog.fountain.fm>.
For the homelabber adding Umbrel to manage your money is just another node on your network. Come Thursday night to see how to enable it.
