Nostr Web Client

Always need to worry even with bitcoin or nostr. Use VPN and don't dox yourself. Personally I am more terrified about the current banking system and CBDCs coming soon. As a foreigner living in Japan I have seen the Japanese banks bend over backwards for US regulations.

Right! I vomit if I hear th word CBDC 🤮

This is an experiment to get the state back the control for the money issuing.

But implementing the CBDC ks difficult and can destroy the two level banking system.

But yku can worry about that the bank (and the IRS or similar omstitutes can track every coim you spend or get paid)

Si Bitckin Eclsystem is good to het back your autonomy (but I want to get back my privacy too).

But! The Bitcoin Ecosystem itself is not enough for tor this without additional "tools" e.g. VPN (you have to paid for really secure ones) an TOR. For privacy you must have degoogled phone, Linux instead of Windows, do not use Google Play, protonmail or tutanota instead gmail, hotmail, apple mail and so one.

The Monero and zero knowledge systems are good, but the client infra is too "poor" as you mentioned.

The degooglization is a hard one for me, but hopefully in the near future my Umbrel will replace all their functions. Also looking into getting a Linux cellphone for my next phone. Do you have one? I am concerned it won't be Japan compatible.

Yes I use degoogled, custom rom phones for years. It is worth to buy an older one (if you make a brick from it, you can simply throw it to the trashbin 😁). But if ylu have some routine, you could try a most modern phone. But you have to choose carefully. So befire you decide, read through the Lineage webpage (or other custom rom's webpage).

The Linux phones IMHO not soo good (but the Android is a kind of Linux, so I mean the other Linux distributioms for phone).

For Umbrel hardware I wont pay, I have all the software as I wanted. But if you not an IT advanced user or pro, you could use it (most of them unnecessary for an average user)

I might need more of your help in the future, to untangle myself from the deep state's internet tentacles.
