Any Aussies in Brisbane area who've set up a SMSF for investing into BTC? Looking for tips on how to go about setting one up for myself.

How about we just hold them liable and remove them..... What's the term that keeps being used? By any means necessary.
Again?
They're not paper Bitcoin wallets either. Most of these are exchanges or custodial wallets. A paper wallet is literally a wallet address/keys created on an offline computer and printer on paper. None of these are paper wallets.
Great round table Guy(s). You mentioned about nodes not having any real use for users, particularly normies. You are dead right. After much listening and reading, I decided to set up my own node on an old laptop. I'm not a tech guy, so its just a windows laptop. Downloaded Knots and the chain. Yay, I'm doing my part to support the network. But, what can I do with this? Not much. I can't use it as a block explorer to check my own wallet. Every search for a block explorer just brings videos on how easy it is for coding bros to make their own in Linux. I get it, if you trust someone else's code then you can't trust anything, but honestly, if node running is something more normies need to do, then it has to provide some value, and everyone has a line they will draw about how much time they will invest to understand it. I want a level of sovereignty, but also don't have time to learn to code my own block explorer. Developing programs I can run on my node laptop to make use of the chain data I hold, would make a world of difference in encouraging people to run their own nodes. I know my node is helpful to the bitcoin network. Making it more helpful, or easier to make practical use of, would be very helpful not just to me, but to the 1000s of people that could be running a node if it provided more personal value. (Thank you for listening to my TED talk).
Ummmm, those aren't paper wallets. When did we start calling hot wallets, or funds in an exchange "paper wallets"?
Windows. Don't hate me.
Okay, so I loaded Knots on an old laptop and downloaded the Bitcoin chain. It's synced, so I'm officially running my own node. What can I use to explore the chain from my own node? I'm not a dev and every video I find is about `create your own block explorer from scratch'. Hints please?
