Sorry, I‘m unable to sell my Bitcoins
…also because until you sell, and you have the money on your bank account, your are not making any profit. The story behind my psychologic limitation is quite short and common, on the “cryptos hype” I was involved with mtGox “puff/disappeared” exchange, with some dollars (well euros since I’m italian) so I promised myself to “don’t fall again in the crypto black hole”.

Nothing special, but since I like the tech things that looking nice I tried to make the setup a bit nicer but it works also without the stand/display/etc… The Raspberry PI is a 4B 1.2 with 4Gb RAM, absolutely not needed for run Pi-Hole but I prefer to have it for other things and Gigabit ethernet, I think a FriendlyARM ZeroPI is perfect for run Pi-Hole only. Building the Raspberry PI The Router is a Netgear R7800 with DD-WRT firmware, the list of items about the Raspberry PI is: Raspberry PI 4B 1.2 Pimoron... Read More
