Bitcoin is the separation of money and state, nostr is freedom of speech. https://simplex.chat/contact#/?v=2-7&smp=smp%3A%2F%2FSkIkI6EPd2D63F4xFKfHk7I1UGZVNn6k1QWZ5rcyr6w%3D%40smp9.simplex.im%2FzXclvqxP8A_Bm7W27BEKA3q5unBt3bUt%23%2F%3Fv%3D1-3%26dh%3DMCowBQYDK2VuAyEAo4fgWEhVSARJRv1oTsFOxjtq8isqfQlt-3uC1E37ezc%253D%26srv%3Djssqzccmrcws6bhmn77vgmhfjmhwlyr3u7puw4erkyoosywgl67slqqd.onion

Anybody here vibe coding with ppq.ai ?

Cursor won't let me use custom OpenAI compatible APIs for coding agents. What is your setup, when you don't want a subscription or even account with an AI coding tool like cursor? I really appreciate ppqs pay-as-you-go a countless model.

Habe vor kurzem meine Karte von der #Zitadelle2024 aktiviert und damit erfolgreich gezahlt. Zum Einrichten habe ich diese App auf Android genutzt (https://github.com/boltcard/bolt-nfc-android-app) und meine eigene LNbits Instanz hinterlegt. Man kann im Grunde auch jede öffentliche LNbits Instanz nutzen, solange der Betreiber das Boltcard Plugin installiert hat und die Instanz über Clearnet erreichbar ist.

I love playing around with secure messengers and rejoice when I get to try a new one. But the sheer number of secure messengers that are not interoperable with another is probably also what's killing secure messaging for normies.

Hopefully #MLS will fix this and we can chat between nostr:nprofile1qqsth7fr42fyvpjl3rzqclvm7cwves8l8l8lqedgevhlfnamvgyg78spz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduqs6amnwvaz7tmwdaejumr0dsq3camnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wvf5hgcm0d9hx2u3wwdhkx6tpdssexaht and nostr:nprofile1qqs8t4ehcdrjgugzn3zgw6enp53gg2y2gfmekkg69m2d4gwxcpl04acpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtckhnhd6 without noticing.

Ha, good point!😁

I was thinking about how nostr might help in this but I had in mind a diary for personal thoughts that are not meant for public eyes.

Any of you guys have a good diary/journaling setup you would like to share? I would like to pick up the habit but know for it to stick it would have to be low-effort to do on an everyday basis and also highly confidential.

I appreciate your research into this topic and you being so toxic about it. I too thought that monero was superior to BTC in regards to privacy. But I am now much more optimistic on the LN and Bitcoin in general. Thanks for that!

Sehr cool! Von denen bin ich auch begeistert und mein nächster wird wahrscheinlich ein frame.work. Berichte gerne mal, wie deine Erfahrungen damit sind!

Escalation in Iran/Israel keeping you up? I fell you...

This geography YouTuber just made a video on how he can't pay freelancers in many countries because they are not connected to the modern banking system or because of sanctions.

We need to make this man and his freelancers across the world aware of #Bitcoin

He already points out so many of the downsides of the legacy financial system, he is so close to the answer!

🧔‍♂️ A Dad’s Plan: How I Made Sure My Family Can Access Our Bitcoin if I Go Missing

https://files.sovbit.host/media/16d114303d8203115918ca34a220e925c022c09168175a5ace5e9f3b61640947/3790d300fdf46863c46685cd468dfe94269455a7f87174d441c7e5470bf443f8.webp

My name’s not important. I’m just a dad — a regular one. I work hard, I love my family, and I’ve put some of our savings into Bitcoin.

But I’ve always had one worry:

> “What if something happens to me? How will my family access the Bitcoin?”

That’s not paranoia. It’s responsibility. Whether it’s an accident, illness, or I just get stuck off-grid, I don’t want my wife and kids locked out of what I built for them.

So here’s what I did.

---

🔐 Enter: 3-of-5 Multisig

Think of it like this:

I created a vault with 5 keys.

But to open it, you need any 3 out of those 5 keys.

That means:

It’s secure (no single key can do anything),

It’s flexible (even if 2 keys are lost or unavailable, the rest can still access it),

And it’s perfect for families.

---

🧩 Who Holds the 5 Keys?

Here’s how I set it up:

1. I hold one key — of course.

2. My wife holds one key.

3. My oldest child holds another.

4. My lawyer holds a key in encrypted digital custody.

5. One key is secured in a safe deposit box, only accessible with clear instructions in my will.

That means:

If I go missing or can’t act, my wife + two others can unlock the funds.

Even if one or two keys are lost or compromised, we’re still fine.

---

⚖️ But What About Trust?

I picked each key holder carefully. And I made sure:

Everyone understands their role (hold, don’t act unless agreed).

No one can act alone.

There’s no single point of failure — not even me.

I also left clear written instructions, legal documentation, and stored passphrases with secure custodians.

---

💸 What Happens if I Die?

Because it’s 3-of-5:

My wife, child, and lawyer can still access the funds.

No waiting for probate.

No bank paperwork.

Just trusted people using the keys we’ve already agreed on.

This is faster, more private, and more reliable than any fiat system I’ve ever used.

---

🧾 What About Taxes?

Great question. Bitcoin is not invisible to the government.

If I die, and the Bitcoin is accessed, it still goes through:

Capital gains reporting if sold.

Inheritance tax issues depending on jurisdiction.

So I’ve worked with a professional to:

Log the cost basis,

Write out the legal ownership plan,

And make sure my family isn’t left with confusion or penalties.

---

🧠 Final Thoughts

This isn’t about paranoia.

It’s about preparedness.

Multisig (like 3-of-5) gave me the peace of mind that my family can:

Access our funds if something happens to me,

Do it safely and legally,

And without depending on any one person, company, or system.

If you’re a dad (or mum) with Bitcoin and loved ones — I urge you to think through this. It’s one of the most loving things you can do.

Because protecting your family doesn’t end when you’re gone. And with Bitcoin — you can protect them better than any bank ever could.

---

Remember to also give EVERY party involved a copy of ALL public keys. Otherwise they won't be able to reconstruct the multisig and funds are lost.

The grass is mighty green on the bitcoiner's side 💚

Happy Pizza-Day! 🍕✌️

Companies selling pre-flashed GrapheneOS devices tend to overstate the security guarantees and might not educate properly. Flashing GrapheneOS is soo easy, even for non-technical people, I don't really see the point in not doing it yourself.

Plus they might flash modified GOS and become the next Encrochat.

I am not an Obscura user, but I don't think so. They seem to manage subscription with Mullvad in bulk.
