What I remember was that the truckers were refusing to enter Canada because they had to be jabbed so they blocked a bridge and people started to make donations and the government came after them so some people decided to send bitcoin and they need to use it so yeah it was a mess. Still we are in a worse position today them 4 years ago bitcoin is not for spending and there's no option besides privacy coins like monero for that.

I respectfully disagree.

Look I just zapped you 100 satoshis for your response.

Was that not private spending for less fees than with monero?

Regarding the truckers, I live here and I also work in the trucking industry. Your brief summary was not wrong, basically only covered the finally event.

Yes we are better off now. So are the truckers. Hopefully many of them learned all about exchanges (exchanges are not bitcoin).

Thanks for the sats I hope Nostr grows I hate to be pessimistic but I see lightning custodial wallets like Wos being forced to be kyc'd even Phoenix is leaving USA. Hopefully Zeus, Mutiny and others will stand still and be more user friendly.

Fortunately, only a fraction of the world's population live in the USA.

And even in the USA, just because something is removed from the google play store, doesn't mean it cant be downloaded from a website, or alternative app store like Fdroid, Aptoide or Aurora Store.

Phoenix didn't leave the USA.

Phoenix left google play on american IP addresses.

Its pretty laughable to be honest 😄

Its pretty tough to stop code.

The sad part is most people don't use open code.

They use third party proprietary code.

Most "Bitcoiners" dont use Bitcoin.

They use corporate, custodial, KYC, apps.

Most Bitcoiners don't run their own node.

Most Bitcoiners don't use Bitcoin.

>Most "Bitcoiners" dont use Bitcoin.

Oh shit we agree! 🥳

Lmao

You zapped him 100 satoshis from your centralized, custodial, fully-surveilled Wallet of Satoshi that can see everything you do 👏👏👏

fully aware that i spent 30 cents where WoS can "see everything i do" that was intentional.

Glad you think thats the only wallet I use. You truly are retarded.

its difficult to explain Bitcoin setups to Monero retards.

You must think I store my life savings on WoS so i can zap everyone on nostr with it lol

Did you buy yourself that iphone yet?

What did you think I meant? That they can see sats you don't use on it? That should be obvious. And you're calling me a retard? lmao

They can see everything you do *anytime you use it* and you zapped those sats from WoS did you not?

Stop deflecting
