What do you guys know about owning BTC atms? Is it a good idea?

I see that my town doesn't have many BTC atms- I think just one or two at shady check-cashing places. I was thinking about saving up some money and investing in putting one out. Does anyone here have experience with doing something like this? Can you point me towards some guides or forums where I can read about what's involved in owning at Bitcoin ATM? What kind of permits etc would be necessary?

After power outage cannot unlock LND wallet... TLS certs?

Hey y'all I can't figure this one out.
I'm running a raspibolt node that followed Stadicus tutorial since February 2019. I keep it up to date often, currently running LND 10.0 , I last checked it a week ago after a power outage and all was well.

there was ANOTHER power outage last night (stormy season) and I had to restart everything. The bitcoin node is up and running, caught up on the chain. But now I can't unlock my LND wallet or access it through ZAP desktop. I get the error when unlocking and inputting my wallet pwd:

[lncli] rpc error: code = Unavailable desc = all SubConns are in TransientFailure, latest connection error: connection error: desc = "transport: authentication handshake failed: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority (possibly because of \"x509: ECDSA verification failure\" while trying to verify candidate authority certificate

That led me to some threads about the TLS certs possibly having expired after some ~14 months. So I removed them, it created new ones after a restart. As you can see in the LND directory:

drwxr-xr-x 4 bitcoin bitcoin 4096 Jun 23 19:51 . drwxr-xr-x 5 bitcoin bitcoin 4096 Mar 20 13:17 .. drwx------ 4 bitcoin bitcoin 4096 Feb 7 2019 data -rw-r--r-- 1 bitcoin bitcoin 490 May 27 2019 lnd.conf drwx------ 3 bitcoin bitcoin 4096 Feb 7 2019 logs -rw-r--r-- 1 bitcoin bitcoin 0 Feb 8 2019 test -rw-r--r-- 1 bitcoin bitcoin 778 Jun 23 19:51 tls.cert -rw------- 1 bitcoin bitcoin 227 Jun 23 19:51 tls.key

They mentioned they solved it by copying the new TLS certs to a "different location" but do not specify where they copied them to. Stadicus guide has a few lines about pointing the admin acct to the TLS certs but nothing happens. troubleshooting shows the symbolic links are working fine. And, of course they were working for 16 months before today.

Any ideas or thoughts?

New Highs!

For Trading JUNE 24TH

New Highs For NASDAQ, AGAIN

Market Recovers From Navarro

Gold New Recovery High Close

Today’s market was a recovery from Mr. Navarro’s comment last night that the China trade deal was finished after Mr. Trump tweeted that it was in fact, still on track. Choose what you wish to believe, but the farmers aren’t happy with soybeans well off their highs. Anyway, we got passed that conflicting news and managed to trade higher with NASDAQ at another new all-time high again today. The only issue was the fact that we closed mid-range, well off the highs. The DJIA +131.14 (.50%), NASDAQ +74.90 (.74%), S&P 500 +13.43 (.43%), the Russell +5.84 (.41%) and the Transports managed an up day, +119.59 (1.32%) for the best gain of the day. Market internals were just barely positive with NYSE 4:3 and NASDAQ 6:5, and volume expanded by 30% on the NAZ. The DJIA was 16:14 Down with the big winners again, AAPL +53 DPs, UNH +33 and V +21, with IBM the only double-digit loser -12.

We added some CVS 7/67.50 calls on the decline with an average price of $1.16 and they finished $ .86, and the NEM 7/17 $60’s @ 1.55 and added to on Friday @ $1.30 for an average of $1.47 triggered a 100% Up Rule sale at $2.94 this morning. They closed the day $2.30. Our position in VLO 7/17 65 calls @ $2.45 closed $2.55.

Our “open forum” on Discord, which allows me to interact with subscribers and others to allow direct questions and chart opinions on just about any stock, continues to grow with more participants every day. It is informative and allows me to share insights as the market is open and moving. The link is: https://discord.gg/ATvC7YZ and I will be there and active from before the open and all day. It’s a great place to share ideas and gain some insights, and we’ve grown to almost 1900 members. I also did this video titled “How to survive being an options trader and not blow up your account,” over the long weekend. I think it’s very informative as a guide to stock selection and option choices. The link is https://youtu.be/Y7H9RpWfLlo Enjoy!!

Tonight’s closing comment video https://youtu.be/H32paScDnow

SECTORS: The news that DELL would be spinning off its stake in VMWare (VMW) to shareholders, a $50billion deal sent both stocks soaring after the close. DELL had closed $49.01 and immediately jumped to almost $60 before settling $57.90 +8.82 (18%) and VMW moved from its close of $149.23 to trade $166 and finish $162.48 +13,26 (8.9%). Another disposal of a stake, this time Softbank’s position in T-Mobile (TMUS) looks like it will be a sizable windfall since TMUS closed at a new all-time high of $107.16 today, making it worth $32.6 billion. In the COVID-19 vaccine arena, Inovio (INO) is getting Dept. of Defense funding to manufacture its intradermal DNA delivery device. The stock, up from $4 to 19 in late March had settled back into a range around $12-15, closing $15.30 Monday and traded as high as $22.68 on the news and finished the day $21.57 +6.27 (41%). FOOD SUPPLY CHAIN was LOWER with TSN -.03, BGS +.04, FLO -.18, CPB -.31, CAG -.55, MDLZ -.43, KHC -.85, CALM +.28, JJSF +.59, SAFM -.30, HRL -.81, SJM -2.51, PPC -.01, KR -.10, and PBJ $30.96 -.23 (.74%).

FINANCIALS were HIGHER with GS +.98, JPM +1.05, BAC +.06, MS +.27, C +.74, PNC -1.06, AIG +.22, TRV -.04, V +2.98, and XLF $23.82 +.11 (.46%).

OIL, $40.37 -.36. Oil was HIGHER early in the day but couldn’t manage to hold the rally and fell back a bit. This is not unexpected, as I mentioned in the Pre-open comment this morning. I mentioned in last night’s video that it appears that prices are trying to work higher towards $45.00. The stocks were higher with XLE $39.29 +.04 (.10%).

GOLD $1782.00 +15.60. It was a clean breakout and a continuation of the rally today, closing practically on the highs. We bought back the 3rd and final lot of NEM @ $58.86. And, we also added a half position in NEM 7/17 60 calls @ $1.55, and additional 50% @ $1.30 on Friday. We sold half on the 100% Up Rule @ $2.94 yesterday and we closed $2.30 +.16 today.

BITCOIN: closed $9,660 +75. After trading back to 9,300 we rallied to new slightly higher ground. A break over 10,000 still sends us higher. We added 350 shares of GBTC last Wednesday @ $10.02 to our position of 400 @ $8.06, bringing our average price to $8.97. GBTC closed $10.596 + .36 today.

Tomorrow is another day.

5g = no dick no balls no brains no sex no species no life on earth

Living in low gravity with high radiation burns both balls and brains, even eyeballs.

Petrochemical genome perturbations will grow hair on your palms.

Why do we need bitcoin for poisonous drugs when they can be free and safe?

Saying drugs are bad and greed is good happened again in the 80s.

Like everything else its 100 years old. The human explosion is 70.

From 2,000 to 2030 petrochemical demand will exceed population growth by 7 times.

The small dip in growth called covid is a chart blip, and minor perturbation in onward growth.

Just like how the human emissions blip will not stop the runaway soil off gassing events of CO2, nitrogen gases and methane gases in the Arctic.

Urban material use is growing through the roof. Korea doesn't have enough land for green energy.

Green energy and Academic asphyxia are the leading causes of male extinction.

Nano petrochemicals and forever chemicals last forever, move up the food chain and drift north.

Roads are not made of hemp and green energy doesn't grow on trees.

The bright light EMF saturation of cities is inimical to plant and animal life, mostly bugs.

They had to kill a few thousand desert turtles to the bird and bug frying Ivanpah solar cookery.

Even dismissing the fact the bees are using my dog's brain to get apes to burn 5G pods, let's discuss material protocols and how there are none. We are saturated with chemical ninjas who are all just gay cousins to each other destroying all life on earth - all the way from the macro to the nano.

When Dow first said plastic was yummy we didn't 4 credit cards worth a month or breathing it.

Plastic doesn't recycle it turns into nanoparticles that are highly attracted to toxic chemical and metals.

They enter through everything to touch eat breathe drink and through your skin, lungs, nose and guts into your bloodstream and attacks the blood barrier to vital organs like your brain. Nano magnets from tires, brakes and exhaust attack inside the brain directly from the nose causing Alzheimer's in kids.

Petrochemical poison throughout the food chain are epigenetic poison that leads to male extinction. When you consider the nano particles in billions of wireless earbuds, the dog and poney show of recycling them with robots is absurd, each cycle only prolongs the inevitable build up petrochemicals that grow 7X faster than human population.

Saturating rural countryside with heavier EMF saturation will be the last straw for bees, they're already dropping like flies. E-waste is growing especially with wireless headsets alone. Each additional demand on hi tek throughput is inimical to genetic propagation. It's a cumulative death of a thousand poisons. It will end life on earth. Moore's law means more data demand, more data demand will kill the birds bees and fish. China is the forever land of forever chemicals. We can barely fly our jets.

Academic asphyxia is the leading cause of male extinction.

This may sound like a conspiracy but hi tek likes hi data growth, I know because I'm a hi info moron.

The same recycling trick is an endless gimmicks, gimmicks don't save planets from data growth.

God didn't make little green goats and don't rain Indian apples in the summertime.

The US is in the highest wildfire burning season in 20 years already, or some facsimile of that satement.

The urban EMF saturated urban warfare zones are for political hegemonic child traffickers and drug criminals, if legalized both drugs and abortions half our problems would be gone but the Pope is a pedo nazi from Argentina. Bernie Sanders and Justin Trudeau are pro pedo.

I don't care if you are pro pedo, EMF data saturation is destroying males across classes of species.

Even the queen bees are turning gay, and they're controlling the urban pod fires.

Both pods genes and bushes will burn with pro EMF data field saturation.
