Metal Seed Backup
You can use this guide to see what's best, but I just bought some stainless steel plates and engrave them myself. https://jlopp.github.io/metal-bitcoin-storage-reviews/
- Pass phrase, metal plate recommendation
- If you are someone who moves cities a lot where and how is the best place to store seed phrase?
- Ledger / Atomic Wallet media is making me paranoid
-
Best cold-storage wallet?
Okay, so now, how about the availability of the information. Is your seed phrase on your device of choice acceptably available to you? How about if your house was broken into? How about if your house burned down? Consider all the things that could harm the availability of your seed phrase to you, without sacrificing the confidentiality of that information. A steel plate that can survive a house fire https://jlopp.github.io/metal-bitcoin-storage-reviews/ can increase your availability, but does it sacrifice confidentiality? How about if its kept in a safe? How about, geodispursed mutli-sig with steel plates that are also geographically dispersed? Its a good trade off between availability and confidentiality and you can read more about it here: https://glacierprotocol.org/docs/overview/multi-signature-security/
- What hardware wallet do you recommend to keep my Bitcoin for the long term?

Sledger
If you want true cold storage then best option would be generate a wallet offline. Make note of the seed phrase. Check this seed phrase is correct and can recover the wallet! Then backup seed on steel hardware like a cryptosteel or other method of your choice from this list. https://jlopp.github.io/metal-bitcoin-storage-reviews/

What way are you storing your seed phrase physically other than paper?

How do I start running my own node
I would start my research with Umbrel, Raspiblitz, Mynodebtc, RaspiBolt or Embassy. A couple of guides: https://thecryptogarage.com/umbrel-linux-ubuntu-node-build/ https://stadicus.github.io/RaspiBolt/

How do I do sovereign non-custodial lightning ?
If you're willing to DIY a bit, I strongly recommend the RaspiBolt guide!
- BitcoinCore V22.0.0 initial set-up and synchronisation
- how to run a full node?
- Full Node Hardware

Cornelius (my LN routing node) is 2 years old today!
RPi4 in a box. Used the RaspiBolt guide for initial software setup.
-
Difference between Umbrel, Start9, or native programs?
Sounds like you'll enjoy the Raspibolt guide - it's how I set up my node. GUI stuff is in the "bonus" section. r/raspibolt for help
-
Help running full node
If you're the DIY type I strongly recommend the raspibolt tutorial - geared for a Pi but good for any device, just substitute arm64 for your architecture.
-
Run a node
Check out the raspibolt tutorial. Geared for a Pi but applies well to any capable device
