I appreciate your forthrightness.

Yes

Here’s the wallet activation page:

I really want to use the wallet on primal, but have a question: why is my name, email, location AND birthday required? How is this information being used?

I really like Aqua's way of handling lightning. It reminds me of Muun, but the use of Liquid instead of main-chain makes it more affordable.

However, I don't see it as a (hot) spending wallet.

Liquid->LN costs too much for the coffee use case. A 4100 sat invoice (2€) requires ~400 sats in fees (0.2€). That's 10%.

However, it's a great stacking warm wallet, while a custodial well-connected LSP (WoS, or a good mint) can be the spending wallet.

When I was at Princeton, I talked about how many applications don’t need statefulness and are better without it.

It’s not the easiest discussion, but the TLDR is that I shilled all the work you folks are doing on it.

If you are near Princeton in early March, they are hosting a decentralized social media workshop that now includes Nostr. 😎

On-chain: Noncustodial

Lightning: Noncustodial (*)

Statechains: Regulatorily Noncustodial

Fedimint: Federated Custody

Exchanges: Custody

Easy enough?

I think we could do a lot more to protect our precious #block space and #bandwidth. And that's what we must do.

#Satoshi #Nakamoto is the only person with the right to put whatever he wants into the blockchain.

#Nodes and miners serve at the pleasure of Bitcoin. Virtuous full nodes have a right to serve, and protect their interest.

Mining participation is a privilege with responsibilities, not a right. #Miners are responsible for filtering out crap from getting in the #blockchain.

We must make this clear, and hold bad actors responsible. We must enhance and strengthen enforcement of the #Bitcoin protocol. For the protection and benefit of all..🤔

Interesting and true. Frugal people have a higher chance of being addicted than others because they will buy the better deal. I can get a handle of decent Vodka (1.75ml) for 14$. That is 6 six packs of beer in alcohol.

Math can kill

Would prefer an APK download too, currently downloading via Aurora store.

Fountain is closed source AFAIK

I'm using #GraphineOS. Is there a way to download an apk so I don't have to use the google play store? Also, is Fountain closed source? If so, any plans to be open source in the future? I'm striving to use open source as much as possible, so right now it's #AntennaPod for me.

Guys! Vote for Fountain in ProductHint 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 nostr:note1jmz6etk0ksaxdcncsvffhe8d525xlhp58a0727ardujfhuvcqevs7lh8tx

trying to send sata through lightning from other wallets, but they don't like the @primal.net lightning address. trying to receive sats from my aqua wallet to be specific

Here's what the money printer does:

1. Creates a paper bitcoin via non-spot ETFs and other products

2. Makes the paper bitcoin price the ruling price, broadcast that price on all the media. They do this with gold, the ruling price is not the spot price, it is the nearest futures derivative price(paper)

3. Prints infinite money and shorts the paper bitcoin or shorts the real bitcoin or both , or just oversupplies the paper bitcoin. The money and the paper bitcoin is infinite.

Job done. People cheering paper bitcoin are in for a traumatic awakening
