I want to share my experience regarding a Bitcoin investment scam involving inefex.com where I lost over $375,000. Fortunately, I was able to recover my funds with the help of [www.BsbForensic.com] They are truly one of the rare services that can help in such situations. If anyone is facing a similar issue, I highly recommend reaching out to them for assistance.

Thanks to the Alby extension I am able to sign by Nostr and have quickly access to my Bitcoin Lightning funds. It's free open source and their team is very active by supporting and looking into new feature requests. It work at best by combining it with Alby hub, which gives your own Lightning Node. Really recommended. wszystko open source
