I like how our government or the news media talks about cyber attacks, information stolen and digital security compromised and then blames someone else for this.
It's nothing but a honey pot. It's going to get worse. Anyone who has looked for a job in the last two years has gone through all kinds of hoops to get background checks, login security and nonsense on top of nonsense that can and will be compromised because they're are too many people with access to the data and the data is outsourced so that no one is actually financially responsible.
It's a total joke.
Everyone is already compromised. The global retarded are in charge of the security and the real security minded are paid better to compromise the nests. This is exactly what the mark of the beast is. It's Revelation but it's 🤡🌎 Satanism.
It's all the appearance of obfuscated security but complication and not by effectiveness.
Our government will be compromised and it will be our fault or holiday.
If you haven't figured it out yet. The computers are supposed to give you a balance of power so that they can't pull the wool over your eyes.
Alas we need ways to make managing is even harder. We need to make our behaviors more complicated. We need to disregard their laws and follow only what is just and right by God.
I want to bitch about something but I can't back up my bitch so I'll just leave a mysterious bitch here.

Listen to the No Agenda podcast. We do media deconstruction. "The Stories" is exactly right. All media is basically a psychological operation against you. It's meant to promote dissatisfaction.
Unless you have boots on the ground you will not get the real story.
For everything you add you have to take two things away. But you can phonetically say, aweigh.

You forgot to mention that even if so and so is not so and so you can get sats from the non-so and so but if the non-so and so is too cheap to even give you sats you can block him because he's fake anyway...
But if he's fake and wealthy to share, then he's your fake friend "Jack" and why part ways when he's so generous?

I was incredibly bullish on lightning for years
However if nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a is listening, I want to say I am now completely sure that is has failed and will never work and my lightning address is azuremoth1@primal.net

Good Morning.
I'm very grateful for this NOSTR. It's nice to be in contact with the smartest and brightest of this world.
I'm not so active here because I'm very busy and grateful for the work that I've been given but I still look forward to finding some gem here.
At the same time I'm very glad that all the time I have spent here has not been spent on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn and lesser evils.
To be honest, I spend more time praying than I do jibber jabbing about things and my life is much better.
I also have the desire to share so this place fulfills that for me and I have the desire to see the successes of others so this place fulfills that, too.
If you find me disagreeable that's because I tell the truth. Sycophants are easy to find in this world. I may find you also disagreeable but I also will always look for your success, too.
As humans we are meant to be by our free will choosing the work of the Lord. We may do terrible things and we may do great things. We may in fact be the same person doing both.
It's time to do the good work of the Lord to the best of my ability. This now gives me great joy! Here's a cat photo from yesterday. What an amazing creature.

Donald Trump has a copy of the United States of America white paper.
You left out an apostrophe in 4th paragraph above and the devil horns, hand gesture is opening up something very nasty that you think is cute and cool but might lead to your downfall.
But go on.
The other day on Twitter/X, I paid out a 2,100,000 sat or $1,700 USD Lightning bounty.
Over the past couple years, I’ve offered an occasional challenge on Twitter/X.
When people tell me Lightning doesn’t work, I often ask them in random comments for their Lightning details so I can pay them in the next 5-10 minutes on the spot, permissionlessly, wherever they are, with this payment method that supposedly doesn’t work.
Every single time, they can’t do it. Because they haven’t even tried it. They’re just talking. I’ve done this a ton of times and nobody ever takes the sizable sat offerings.
In Dan Held’s anti-Nostr thread, Mark Jeffrey was critical of Lightning.
Unlike most who I offer the challenge to as 99% sure they won’t take it, I offered it to Mark despite knowing he had a much higher probability of accepting it, since he’s tech savvy and active in the broad crypto space. But in my view, if he accepts, then that’s also evidence on the spot that it works.
He declined my 21,000 sat offer and politely still talked anti-Lightning.
So, I said since I like him, I’d up it to 210,000 sats. He still declined and talked more anti-Lightning. He spoke about how he *wanted* it to work, but the problem just isn’t solved yet.
My inner Nostr Lyn couldn't help it, so I upped it to 2,100,000 sats, or $1,700+ USD, if he would just post a way to pay him on Lightning within the next ten minutes. Nobody had ever taken me up on my challenge, so I pressed to my highest offer ever just to see, out of sheer curiosity. He’s a multi-time published novelist, which with my recent fiction hobby, interests me. So, if there’s someone I want to claim the bounty, might as well be him.
And then you know what? He did. Of course he had a Lightning address.
He went from “want it to work but…” to digging through his past experiences and finding an old Lightning address, within a few minutes. The first person on Twitter/X to accept my challenge.
I paid him 2,100,000 sats on the spot, or $1700+ USD.
He provided a Stike address, so that’s a shout out to nostr:nprofile1qyxhwumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmvqywhwumn8ghj7mn0wd68yttsw43zuam9d3kx7unyv4ezumn9wsqzp382htsmu08k277ps40wqhnfm60st89h5pvjyutghq9cjasuh38q7t6dtc who made Lightning convenient enough for Mark, who doesn’t understand or particularly like Lightning, to finally call my challenge and make me have fun staying poor, lol. And it worked flawlessly despite being an above-average sized Lightning transaction.
I then asked Mark if he could identify the sending wallet, but he said he couldn’t. He asked about block explorers to identify the payment, and while I pointed him toward Mempool Space, I highlighted that Lightning tends to make sending privacy pretty good even though I didn’t maximize privacy on this one. I'm not deep into the weeds on privacy tech, so I'm always genuinely curious just to ask "hey, can you identify any privacy leaks here?"
I also asked him if he would have shared his bank details publicly like he shared his Lightning address. He said of course not.
So even if people say “But Lyn, Mark used a custodial wallet”, I’d say that this tech stack reduced his friction and boosted sender privacy.
I think there are still improvements to make of course, particularly Lightning combined with other scaling methods (ecash, Ark-style stuff, and so forth), but it’s a powerful glue that connects a lot of things together.
In addition, when it comes to payments and small amounts of working capital, there is an important “choose your own adventure” aspect. For small amounts, in safe jurisdictions, custodial Lightning is not that big of a deal, like keeping cash in your wallet that is prone to theft or loss. It maximizes UX.
But it’s important to keep pushing hard, keep developing, keep providing capital, to make as many tools as possible available for people that need to maximize privacy and/or self-custody. Not everyone needs or wants those capabilities for every single payment, but they do need the *option* to turn to them when it’s important.
Mark Jeffrey then reached out to chat about fiction. Last year he asked me to go on his podcast to talk about Broken Money, but I fell behind on Twitter/X DMs due to bandwidth constraints and didn’t get back to him. So, after this I got back to him and said I’d be happy to talk about fiction with him to pick his brain, and talk Broken Money on his podcast, and we got one scheduled. 🤝
Wow! Great push. Mark could and should have had Strike send those sats to his cold storage because strike and cash app will do so 50,000 sats for free, no mining free, as long as you can wait 24 hours and usually this happens in about 3 to 5.
I TOLD YOU SO. El Salvador will became the "tether country".

What other predictions do you have?
Good Morning.
I will be wasting less and less time here. I no longer need a replacement for social media. I don't need social media.
This is a place that is nice but it's also not my place. This place belongs to those who own the computers. My relay is just my relay and I can do text files all day on my own.
I enjoy all of my follows. This is nice. What I have to say is less and less important.
As far as paying for services goes. This is really good. Small businesses need to be here. If small business goes here this place will really shine. Some small businesses are here but they are too far from me to use the services.
Bitcoin is a headache. All money is a headache. Bitcoin is a better headache than the other headaches.
Mat 7:13-14 KJV ¶Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
14. Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
