Ode to bitcoin

A spark in the wires, a code in the night,

A ledger of truth, unbending, upright.

No king to command it, no borders to bind,

A freedom of numbers, a sovereign mind.

It whispers in hashes, it roars in the chain,

It lives in the lightning, it hums through the main.

A trustless creation, both humble and grand,

A signal of hope passed from hand into hand.

Through chaos and crashes it still holds its flame,

Unmoved by the markets, untouched by the shame.

For wealth is not only the gold we can see,

But the power to choose, to be sovereign and free.

So hold if you dare, or spend if you must,

But know in this protocol lies a great trust.

A beacon eternal, in code it shall stay,

Bitcoin forever, the dawn of our day.

we tested zaps on this note… we made six attempts to⚡zap this note, at craiglarkin@speed.app, over a period of 7 minutes. Six of the zaps were successfully paid... please check for 6 satoshis received. problem: we found that your lightning address server **did not* properly produce zap receipts, and/or didn't send the zap receipts to the relays specified in the zap. (the zap spec requires that the zap receipts be sent to the relays specified in the zap.) this means a nostr user who zaps you might not see a number appearing next to the ⚡ icon after zapping.... if you wanted to fix this... you could try getting a free rizful lightning address -- https://rizful.com ... if u get it set up, pls reply here so we can do this ⚡zap test again.
