It’s great! Do you know how to make it to zap with the included ecash wallet? I’m using in iOS and it just wants to open the installed enuts app, instead of using the embedded ecash wallet

iris.to, nostter.app, nostrudel.ninja

they are all as fast and smooth as primal but without the caching server. a lot of impressive progress in the last months.

Fake Carla dming me. Go away fake Carla.

Hal even referred to some bitcoin banks offering interest. 😅 I personally don’t want to give up custody of my sats in that way. I am currently ok using custodian for some smallish lightning payments such as zaps, but beyond that I custody everything else myself. I think everyone should learn how. And I think you’re right that those solutions will get better. But I also think some people are jumping to make Saylor a super villain but ignoring stuff like these statements made by Hal, who is otherwise revered.

I’m not advocating for giving up custody. I’m not necessarily supporting whatever Saylor is suggesting either. I’m just pointing out that the idea of bitcoin backed banks is nearly as old as bitcoin. Hal seems to be talking about a type of ecash system here backed by bitcoin. But he also discusses some running fractional reserve, and some not, each with varying policies. Should we vilify Hal now?

But was this before having other alternatives right? I just don’t see the point of going through the trouble of getting and stacking sats if, at the end, we’re all going to give it back to banks to custody… we have to trust them?

Follow the example of the OG bitcoiners. Practice self-custody. Transact p2p. Fight tooth and nail against Bitcoin backed banks. Wait…

PEOPLE WHO DO NOT SELF CUSTODY BITCOIN, THERE IS A NAME FOR THEM, WE CALL THEM POOR.

Consolidated some utxos this morning. Not normally exciting but a couple firsts for me.

1 first transaction singed by my airgapped coldcard

2 first transaction broadcast from my own node via sparrow

The full self sovereign setup isn't that hard. If I can do it you can too. LFG

Global distribution (Amazon, etc) is pending.

Sorry generic he/him suit guy but I don't believe you are this thrilled about being some middle manager at a bank branch
