LOL. I was just thinking that. Loaded up X. See a bunch of bozos memeing ETFs.. closed. Some things never change.
There's plenty of ETF talk on Nostr, too...
Xitter is dead mate.
Could barely get news when the earthquakes hit Japan.
Any thread that goes viral now has all sorts of replies which have nothing to do with the OP surfaced to the top.
What is that platform today?

Here’s a bitcoin story for you this week - more of a question really. My freelance job clients are from all over the world and payment can be a pain. This week was the least painful, I lost 3% from foreign bank transfer fees, but not before the payment was rejected for "suspicion of fraud" because of where I am. Trying to suggest the idea of bitcoin often tends to be difficult - these are high profile folks, but they are not comfortable due to its rarity and some want the audit trail. I am wondering how we can make using bitcoin for payments more common. Do apps like Cash App, which supports both fiat and bitcoin, ease up this transition in people’s minds? Could services like TBD's off-ramp/on-ramp make international transfers more easily adopted by entrepreneurs and implemented globally ? How do you foresee Nostr playing a role in encouraging Bitcoin as payment for goods and services in the long run ?
CashApp and their upcoming on and off ramps will help with this, yes. However, I really like Strike's approach with their send globally feature. They're utilizing Bitcoin the monetary network to send funds around the world instantly with very low fees and then partnering with local entities to transfer from bitcoin back to fiat. The results work fantastically as users don't need to think of Bitcoin as the asset, they're just thinking of Bitcoin as a way to send dollars and get their local fiat or vice versa. They essentially never touch bitcoin, they just utilize the network.
