In protocol design, perfection has been reached not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.

Deterministically optimistic on #Bitcoin builders.

Passports are outdated artifacts.
It is time passports are replaced with public key cryptography.
#Bitcoin fixes this too.

Happy Valentines day my lovely people.
May your flicker of curiosity light the path for many to follow. 🧡💜

#[5] that was a thoughtful and respectful way to close off the Ordinals (NFT) spaces. Well done to you sir for keeping a level head.
[775.395]
affirmative. 🤙

Was fun to listen to the excitement in peoples voices, and to hear folks talk about installing Bitcoin Core, and Sparrow wallet.
Doesn't that make Ordinals and Inscriptions a Trojan Horse?
You come for the generative art, and you stay for the freedom.
[775.276]
Ordinals, Inscriptions, and NFTs on the Bitcoin blockchain are distractions.
OP_RETURN inscriptions are also distractions.
Starve your distractions, feed your focus.

This is a video that covers this very topic and tries to answer the question of whether Bitcoin's distribution could have been made more fair by allocating an equal share to every single human being in the world.
tl;dr Everyone gets their Bitcoin at the price that they deserve.

There is no gift like giving the gift of #Bitcoin to those you care about.
#Opendime is my favourite.
I'm yet to try the NFC card replacements. Maybe one day.
[774.967]
nice work #[1] Maybe share your steps so others can learn and follow. 🤙
When i found out i had been walking for years in the wrong direction i immediately changed course.
It was the only sensible thing to do given the overwhelming evidence.
A bruised ego can be mended.
Thank you #Bitcoin

That is very generous of you. How about you send me an invoice for 25 x 2000 sats and i’ll replenish your pot.

Transparency comes in many shades and is hard to verify.
Some promotional “earnings” are non monetary and therefore hard to quantify.
Finally, private dealings between two willing parties are private.
Who are we to impose our moral or ethical compass on fellow travelers?
I get what you are saying but there are too many variables and nuances, with no way of enforcing or verifying.
[772.784]
"influencers" are people. People are driven by incentives.
Everyone has a price.
Maybe the question should be:
1. How many strikes is too much before *you* banish an influencer?
2. How long an exile must the influencer spend before *you* welcome them back into your world?

i noticed a simple GET request to a nostr.json file shows a list of all verified nostr keys mapped to that DNS name. This behaviour is by design according to NIP-05.
I am not sure i am happy with this, but do not have a good solution.

There is probably a parallel universe where the gift of #Bitcoin has not yet been invented.
Don't waste your privilege.

At some point in the past, most schools were homeschools.
At some point in the future, most Bitcoin will be custodial Bitcoin.

One could say there is no #BTC, there are only 2.1 quadrillion (2.1E+15) units of "Satoshis".
And one would be both wrong and right at the same time.
