What is holding up the US economy?

New UK laws on bitcoin.

In your opinion, what tools are essential for the acquisition, security, privacy and day to day use of Bitcoin for the average person? Would love to hear the specific apps you think get the job done best, with the least barrier to entry.

Over the last few days, I've seen a lot of posts about war, Israel, Hamas, etc. If it wasn't for Nostr, I wouldn't know what's going on.

Max war propaganda out there.

War only ever benefits the people who orchestrate it. They are trying to emotionally manipulate you into choosing a side and supporting a new war. They need people to consent.

Stop letting them manipulate you.
