Fucking shitcoins

shitcoiners gonna shitcoin
I still remember my digust when I saw the SATS token on Coinbase.
It's one thing to create a shitcoin to confuse the masses, it's another to list it.
Yeah, I was worried about this. It’s worse than an ordinary shitcoin because eCash is somehow also a bitcoin fork.
eCash shitcoin scam is born = real #cashu is winning and making itself seen 🙃🥜
It's a lack of politeness, my friend, but we're on the right track. Thanks for all your work.
I can understand their confusion.
On one hand you have a shitcoin with the same name. On the otherhand you have bitcoin held by custodians in a shady shitty situation.
Either way you are dealing with shit.
Whatever you say thelegendaryman@faintain.fm
🤣🤡
Just made a post about this ironically before reading this. Didnt say I was not dealing with my own shitty situation right now.
The issue for me has been finding the right lightning wallet which works for the Linux desktop without a high sats requirement.
I got rugged by an Alby Hub bug out of thousands of sats.
Got rugged by 2 cryptocurrency exchanges. Thank goodness they were all shitcoins.
Experimenting with Misty Breez for mobile. Which so far so good.
Cashu is just a new form of banking giving custody over a currency which was designed to replace the need for trusting other people with your money in the first place.
Self custody should be the only logical option for bitcoiners. I would not mind running my own cashu mint, but have no idea how to do that reliably, or safely.
The whole point is that your bitcoin in the custody of anyone else IS a shitty situation to be in.
ain't reading a whole essay justifying your larp, happy for you or sorry it happened
Too bad. You had an opportunity to turn someone who is highly critical of cashu into someone who could have been a tenacious supporter of it.
Sometimes you actually have to read words in order to discover new opportunities.
cashu is not self custodial by definition since its ecash. cash/ecash fundamentally depends on the trust put in a central authority. nonetheless, its a solid privacy respecting alternative to custodial wallets imo.
what bug in Alby Hub. you can’t get rugged by anybody, it’s self custodial.
Tell that to my alby hub that I could not restore a backup of. Which crashed everytime right after I login. Once it was transferred to a new computer.
Rugged by a bug.
the way you talk better use paypal.
then you can complain to others and are not responsible yourself about what you do.
I got a better idea.
you know the thing, is self-custody means that you’re responsible for your stuff… like your backup.
there are many many people working hard to build open source software that makes all this possible and make things better every day.
now you can choose to either help making it better, help reporting and fixing potential issues or you can choose to talk shit and complain about the work others provide you for free.
anyway, love you, too.
and hope you find the right setup for you.
I am responsible for my backups. I kept backups of Alby Hub with more than 3 copies on multiple hard drives. Like any good experienced responsible system administrator would.
Yes, there is many people working hard to build open source software and make things better every day. I recognize that and always do my best to positively contribute with prompt bug reports straight to the developers. Which is why I immediately reported the issue to Alby Hub when I encountered it months ago.
Worked back and fourth with the Alby Hub team to fix it.
The customer support team was quite rude to me nearly the entire time. I was told I was too advanced of a user. Then when I complained about the rudeness publicly, I got a half assed back handed apology. I was given a link to a backup restoration tool which would not work in my specific circumstances. Up shits creek and given a broken paddle to fix my situation.
So again I say in full honesty. Rugged by a bug.
Then today after getting some more de ja vu from you with rude interactions by saying maybe I should use paypal. I am in the same boat I was a couple months ago, but now with an even bigger stick shoved up my ass. Appalled at how absolutely unprofessional Alby Hub team members are in regards to public relations by issuing insultingly poor support to their users. Instead of investigating and asking me more questions to resolve the longstanding issue.
You chose to insult publicly insult me.
So I gave you the only finger I felt you truly deserved.
From this point forward you could either zap me my lost 18,500 sats to redeem your company's public image by changing my mind on how you conduct your business in regards to professionalism. Alternatively I will justifiably talk shit about Alby Hub whenever I feel the need to, because of my shitty experience with your product. Fueled with a mighty fire stoked by the insulting customer support it continues provides to its users still to this day.
That is called freedom of speech and being honest with people to stay away from bad products and services which can lose them money.
I hardly have faith that you, or your company would do the right thing by your users, but you are always welcome to try and redeem yourselves. Either way I don't give a flying fuck what you do now. Have a wonderful day.
ah, I now remember that nice conversation already back then. where you also chose to complain and swear and hate on lightning instead of accepting help or sharing info to even understand what you tried to do there. it's still the case that if you have your backup of that VM nothing is lost.
but you're free to talk shit to whoever listens.

If the application keeps crashing after a successful login. The funds may still be there, but if I can't use the backup recovery tool to recover my onchain balance. Then I am still fucked.
Open to suggestions if you have any.
provide some logs, screenshots, anything.
nobody can help you with “I can’t use” or “crashing after login”.
that’s like saying something like my car doesn’t drive.
hard to help you without more information.
Sometime this week when I have some free time I will try and get you the log information with some screenshots.
I knew one day I would have to pick at this old scab bleed some more aggravation...
Hey, nice to have you here! lnme is awesome! Simple and effective!
I expected them sooner but they were unavoidable anyway so, all we can do is pointing out about the issue whenever presenting ecash to others. Most people know but there's always small percentage of them who are afraid to ask and they are the primary target of these scammers.
Affinity scam is real.

It confused me as well for a bit, when I started Nostr and it autofollowed your account. I was wondering what ecash you were talking about, since it didn't make sense to me you'd be happy about a shitcoin lol
There's also something called SATS... $BRC20 Bullshit.
Jebus christ i'm sorry.. getgooti went insane.
