bitcoin VS lnd

install bitcoin core qt wallet as clearly stated by satoshi nakamoto https://bitcoin.org/en/download

I just downloaded bitcoin core but cannot figure out how to verify it before i begin running it. It shows there are keys on this site https://bitcoin.org/en/download but there are really no instructions for how to complete this process on this site https://bitcoin.org/en/full-node#windows-10 not much help for beginners. I've been trying to dig for resources and one place said keys are here? https://github.com/bitcoin-core/guix.sigs/tree/main/builder-keys

You found the problem. https://bitcoin.org/en/download hasn't updated to the latest version.

Full node will let you query all the way back to the first blocks where satoshi put his famous first inscription "Chancellor of Finance announces 2nd bailout for the banks" or something liek that: https://bitcoin.org/en/download

The good news is that these can definitely be imported into Bitcoin Core, or swept into an Electrum wallet, and there's a chance that all, or at least some, of your bitcoin are held in that one address, so it's worth giving it a shot.

Dude download bitcoin core https://bitcoin.org/en/download and hold your own coins this is the ledger. You will own your own bitcoin.

Okay fastest and cheapest way contact your local miners…. Being honest go to your local miners and ask them. This gets around CEXs. Also download bitcoin core. https://bitcoin.org/en/download. Download this to a 1tb flash drive. Do not create a bitcoin wallet. When this is complete go buy a cheap laptop and this is going to be your offline network. Hook up the flash drive and create your wallet offline to the new laptop. Transfer the files. While doing this you are going to create two copy’s of your wallet. One offline and one online. When you contact the miners you will transcribe your wallet address. While that’s going on your bank has already arranged for funds to transfer from credit to the miners. Once the miners receive funds you while be sent the bitcoin. On your online laptop open up bitcoin core. Once you see your funds update the ledger. Unplug your flash drive and upload the flash drive to the offline network. You should see your bitcoin (:

The Bitcoin Core download page states:

Install LND: https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/blob/master/docs/INSTALL.md#install-lnd Install Bitcoin Core: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/build-windows.md#building-with-mingw-w64-cross-tools

To be able to follow along, you must have both bitcoind and lnd installed.

If you want multiple users, you'll need multiple node instances. LNbits (mentioned by /u/sos755) does not implement this. Rather, it simply abstracts the funds associated with a single node into multiple logical accounts. This means that the node administrator still has underlying control of all funds associated with the node. See this GitHub discussion for a bit more info: https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/issues/2652

LND doesn’t use BIP39 mnemonics. https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/blob/master/aezeed/README.md

Both Bitcoin Core and LND have binaries available for macOS, for example. I have not seen an actual guide to set everything up on macOS tho. It's quite similar to Linux honestly.

As for taproot change addresses, this has been the default behaviour since version 0.15.5. Just update your lnd and you're all set.
