This also applies to your other reply… “shoot over it” as in when I take out loans I don’t care if the interest is high!! Earning free profits from other peoples money at at rate is always a win!! To often times we become content!! We get attached to our “wealth” where the super rich diverge from the simple rich is we don’t forget where we’re started!! I still have the same GOTTA GET PAID feeling as a homeless man on the street!! Therefore ANY money someone wants to give me I’ll TAKE no matter the repayment!! Getting to long so I’ll chill here ❤️❤️

設備はバッチリやね

PAPER BITCOIN SUMMER

What sparks your joy?

Sometimes I run into a tech guy on Twitter, who talks about how cypherpunk he is.

I’m just a financial analyst and investor, so that’s cool to hear. The more cypherpunks, the better. I like to fund cypherpunks.

But then I look around, and he’s not active on Nostr for over a year. He’s only active on centralized social media.

So then I am confused at how supposedly cypherpunk he is. Is he really that reliant on centralized media? Often, it turns out yes. If not, what other cryptographic proof does he have for his work?

As Nostr increasingly gains network adoption, it becomes weirder when I analyze why someone who is techie is highly active on Twitter but not at all on Nostr.

twitter has more interesting discourse and people and we should try to get them to start speaking on nostr

I suspect it‘s only a matter of time until encrypted messengers and bitcoin wallets disappear from app stores.

I hope for push back on the policy front but I‘m not hopeful here. There are a growing number of boogymen to invoke, and there seems to be little to no political incentive with a lack of awareness and public discussion.

I suspect the only way to use Signal or wallet apps will be using open source mobile OSes and app stores. This is one area I‘d love to see more grants funding for.

Re PWAs … they are a nice short term backup to get your funds out in case of an app store ban of wallets. But they are not the answer longterm as they rely on trust of web servers and SSL CAs. nostr:note13m6sh5tggy6uk4gntnhfu6zkz45ekxq9c3qphw5pfurzy82j22gseu5lv4

Good morning.

The Mooch and Schiff had a debate.

Schiff's claim: “Bitcoin is no more digital gold than an image of a hamburger is digital food." He emphasized gold's tangible utility in industries like electronics.

The reality: 11% of all gold produced is used in industry every year.

Thoughts?

Overreacting is the easy option, and all too often the one that is chosen. Unfortunately that's what this decision about Phoenix wallet seems to be.
