ok i wanna know: what’s missing in your bitcoin life??
Discussion
Privacy
what would privacy look like to you?
Samourai but decentralized. Not sure how we get privacy on the base layer at this point
use lightning 😏
Wooof. So much to unpack there
You tell me to use LN, but when I try to zap you it doesn't work...
I just finished reading The Genesis Book and I’m more convinced than ever that Satoshi never intended for the base layer to offer privacy. Being transparent is what established trust and assurance of consensus in the first place. Privacy and speed of settlement with layers was always the solution.
That's quite bad advice. If you truly want to offer people advice, Monero should be what you're recommending. It is possible for lightning to be private. If you are extremely careful, but it is very easy still to hurt your privacy.
BTCPay Server's coinjoin plugin is this on steroids. Coordinator discovery is decentralized using Nostr: https://mempool.space/tx/f0117ea9c6aee4e2634390dc07792b087a5af5897fd59fd508aba3741a160dfe
Taproot 👍 yw
A social network of bitcoiners who live near me.
Colorado Springs.
I need to understand a lot about the economic concept of bitcoin, combine it with the economic reality of my country and achieve stability and tranquility
Home Mining
Covenants
Places to spend it and someone or something to manage a lightning node for me. God I hate channel management.
Bitcoin job (work on something related to and being paid in bitcoin), home mining, and more places in my city and near ones to spend butcoin, just that 😅🙈
More base58 courses
A farm with cows and chickens

Solid on chain privacy
You get solid privacy on chain with coinjoins from Wasabi Wallet: https://mempool.space/tx/f0117ea9c6aee4e2634390dc07792b087a5af5897fd59fd508aba3741a160dfe
You absolutely do not!
Look at the transaction I posted and see for yourself.
funding 🤣
Lightning coffee shops
this would make my day. I've been trying to get my local shop to accept. he's curious but he's also a busy man.
IRL people to discuss it with. You know, without the strange looks. 😊
And, seriously, just a bunch of learning. I’m new here, and there’s a bit of a learning curve. So… confidence that I’m not doing it wrong?
Adoption and Tools
more places to let me spend my bitcoin locally. I'm moving again soon so I'll see which small businesses accept bitcoin in the next place I visit (& try to convince a few to start accepting) 🧡🙏🙌
The Bitcoin wife ;)
Either an easy way to 1) LN on clearnet that doesnt dox my ip or 2) more reliable payments over Tor.
Easiest solution which is almost plug-and-go is plebvpn with RaspiBlitz. Has hybrid mode with tor as a back up for clearnet. Can highly recommend that.
Hw wallets + coinjoin payments + cross-input signature aggregation
More Bitcoin.
Literally anywhere to spend it. There is zero adoption in my entire region.
literally more bitcoin
a social-life with subtle bitcoin characteristics. I don't want an all male meetup with a who-knows-the-most-pissing-contest.
maybe some number go up would be nice. not necessary, but nice. 😘
oh, and other bitcoin friends.

A full node on my phone
A key agent / multisig coordinator in a jurisdiction that is highly protective of assets and property rights, e.g. the Cook Islands or St Kitts and Nevis. Ideally they would also host HSM’s for small transactions, and apply manual security procedures to bigger ones.
