@Jestopher_BTC tried to spend #Bitcoin in 2017. Paid $60 in fees… twice. Then he fed chickens in Florida with Lightning via @pollofeed. That’s when it clicked. 🐔⚡ Full convo → a4s.me/bitcoin-archive #LightningNetwork #BitcoinPayments

@ambosstech @pollofeed More like it "clucked"

12/ RIP to @pollofeed – the original chicken-feeder that showed Lightning could control hardware instantly. Legendary demo. Sip and stack sats with @beerofsatoshi, a fun way to Orange pill people one beer at a time.

11/ @SheepTangle lets you stream sats into a real farm and feed sheep live on stream. It’s chaotic, hilarious, and the best demo of Lightning IRL.

Few people know the joy and excitement of feeding the chickens on @pollofeed with lightning payments back in 2019, you just had to be there Where is that excitement now in lightning?

Farm is on the move again

@WarumBTC @Cryp_donate Danke. Finde es auch genial. Die ursprüngliche Idee kam natürlich von @pollofeed 🚀

@Sssambaaa1208 Thanks 🙏

@pollofeed Hello, the cam is no more available since yesterday. I cannot feed the chickens...

clearnet or tor?

@pollofeed Cam is working gain thank you 🐓🐔🐔🐔🐔🤩😍

Ladies looking good! Thanks for the continued support

@Lightningcats21 Cool noted I Trigger feeding currently by having a message queue. I insert msg when someone presses feed. And a raspberry pi consumes queue message and switches on a rotisserie motor for 15s. The motor and cereal dispenser works — not consistent tho.

@pollofeed 1300ms. How do you trigger the feeder?

Happy Birthday LightningCats.io 🎉 Unsere Website feiert heute ihr erstes Jahr. 🚀 Juri & Kala hoffen auf einen schmackhaften Geburtstagssnack. Über das #Bitcoin Lightning Network könnt ihr sie gerne füttern. Sie würden sich sehr freuen! 😸🍖🐾

@Lightningcats21 Thanks for the link does look good on a quick scan. I’ll probably use that as a reference. Not sure I want to run lnbits. I used to experiment with it but broke with updates a while back. How long do you toggle the switch for?

@pollofeed I’m using an ESP32 as a bitcoinSwitch. It controls a relay that triggers the feeding process. Here is a good guide for the bitcoinSwitch: ereignishorizont.xyz/bitcoinswitch/…

@Lightningcats21 Ok cool I’ll check it out! Looks better than using this library github.com/morganpartee/p… Which sends data (over http) to their server to then trigger the feeder. Was thinking of installing a custom microcontroller like others I have seen

@pollofeed Yes, it’s a PETKIT feeder. I’m working with a bitcoinSwitch and LNbits.

@Lightningcats21 Is that the pet kit feeder? I picked one up it’s some sweet hardware. Do you use the python lib to trigger? Am thinking about testing it out

@pollofeed Thank you, you were my inspiration 🙏

@BTCMentoring seems to add confusion / unknowns on both sides

@pollofeed Tor is not really made from streaming money, isn’t it?

@callebtc I want to avoid payments failing and make it easy for people to pay. sounds like a good idea to have an option for both, but if it's unreliable then it's no good.

@pollofeed why not both

@JWWeatherman_ @Slappy_Jones_2 @LibertyMugs @fold_app @Strike @CashApp @usebaseapp Respek

2 years ago @Slappy_Jones_2 and @LibertyMugs set out to create a resource to help everyone abandon the US dollar. #GetOnZero engagement was almost exclusively mockery. Today @fold_app @Strike @CashApp @usebaseapp are all doing the same.

@JWWeatherman_ @7OrizzoN7 Ready for the revolution! Onboarding people to bitcoin is amazingly difficult. People would use the site but they don’t want to install cash app. Hope there is a solid wallet in the future. I’m cool with running own node but yeah even that is too much work and wouldn’t recommend

@pollofeed @7OrizzoN7 Back in time for the Breeze SDK backed by Greenlight revolution.

Feeding chickens over bitcoin lightning is so much fun! pollofeed.com #bitcoin #lightning via @pollofeed
