UTXO Management videos: highly recommend watching
@TechnicallyBTC series on this and I also have an OMB bounty video for this.
I would suggest learning sparrow or using tools such as
@luminexio to split utxos
Teams that have been working hard on tools and services for runes:
-
@xverse : Minting, Etching (future). Can practice using test net.
@janbtc @ItsFranken education videos are good to follow
-
@MEonBTC : have been hinting on their runes exchange heavily with
@chartfu @SirGnarlGnomie leading the way there
-
@runes_terminal they have a one stop shop for most things runes atm including runes pad, rune scan, runes accelerator and educational content. @peddy2612 and team over there killing it.
-
@luminexio will also have minting available with a reward system for minting on their platform
Regarding btc node set ups with ord there plenty guides out there. It really depends on your setup.
@Dr_DAO_ has a great on his feed for Ubuntu and minipc
@ItsFranken has one up for mac
The ordicord run by
@cbspears has community made guides also including ones for umbrel and Mac.
I’ll put some links in the comments to some of these.
Hope it helps.
