Only when they are moved or spent.
Geee.. thanks Saylor. I support your right to do anything no one can really stop you from doing anyway. Very brave stand to take.
There are dangerous bodies of water everywhere. Boating accidents do happen. Many a good gun and keys have been lost forever.
WTF does Saylor mean when he says 'the gold was never seized, that didn't happen?' I mean I'm not paranoid. I don't think it will happen with BTC (though it could). Self custody is just to easy.
If he puts the fear into people, like he talked about, they'll dump their BTC to buy an ETF. When they dump the price drops. Guess who buys it up?
Notice how this comes when the price is up? Remember when J Diamond talked shit before buying a bunch for himself?
I think it's just self serving. He has to know the 'they never seized anyone's gold' line was a bunch of BS half truth.
With this little bull run, ETH is almost all the way back up to a 3 and a half year low, against Bitcoin.
Stack sats. Nothing else is even close.
I would also pay huge bonuses to my delivery service to insure continued supply, assuming we can be reached. A good community will be greatful and take care of me afterward
Depends. If the community has treated me well and I can afford it, I'll be at the station personally authorizing each pump, it's price and the amount to be pumped. My employees will get 'hazard/disaster' pay as well.
Some may get unlimited gas for free. Some may get no gas at any price. Some get rations to get out of the area at a high price.
Disasters and local communities are personal. I'll give a highly personal response.
Welcome to the club... I'll take the confession and it's implied advice as it applies to you, a person I listened to in the past.
Do you even know what 'valid' means?
If you tell the government how to goveren, you are the government. Now your logical shoe is on the other foot and you self refute.
Every sense of morality that is not our own is weird to us.
Could this be a symptom of a larger issue?
Surely having no perceived vice in my home is okay. If a small community of say 20 families all agree they want no porn in their community to protect the perceived harm from their families (adults and children), that seems okay as well. Is it a question of scale?
If our major laws must be (or tend to be) nationwide in scope then the surest way to keep some vice from my community is to keep it from all communities.
The moment some 'outsider' brings porn (as we see it) to my small town and meets resistance, the larger state tends to rule against my community. The best defense is a good offense, if you can build the political power.
Perhaps this is at least part of the drive to exert power beyond one's local community?
Just thinking out loud here. Not a fully formulated idea.
The Bible is pretty clear about how bad debasing money is. Seems like a perfect fit.
Money is no respecter of culture, religion, politics or rven morality. Good money will attract all people who know what it is
You only see podcast and music related content on the feed in Fountain. You see all Nostr and Fountain related content in say Primal.
Is that correct? And I assume my Primal feed will only contain Fountain content where I comment, follow, zap ect on Fountain?
Is there a basic tutorial or site that can move me through the stages of #Nostrification ?
For instance:
Stage one. Welcome. Get keys. Understand key basics. Pick a/some clients and here are some suggestions to start.
Stage two: You're here. Explore. Learn about relays and pic a few good ones. Oh... get a wallet.
Stage 3: Now we're cooking.
Understand some features and options. Different Nips for different things. Finding relays and clients that support them and setting things up.
#asknostr
Not complaining, and I'm learning/growing but.... negentropy means nothing to me along with knowing which relays support what Nips and exactly what that means for my use case(s).
I'm sure my experience will improve as I figure those things out.
So, for instance, I first need to know what a thing is, then which nip applies, find a relays and client that supports it then configure everything for it. Correct?
I'm still at step one on most things.
Originally many said to have a bunch of relays. Now I think it's better to have a few (2-4) popular free relays and 2-3 good paid relays. Plus your own private node/relay where possible.
Which ones? It's early, quality and service could change quickly. I think trial and error will move you forward better than anything. Start with name recognition and go from there.
I'm agreeing though, 10 plus relays could be more problem than solution.
There are many views on this for mitigation or establishing fault. Like many of us though, I come to, 'okay... okay. Not your fault. Still your problem and your responsibility to fix it for yourself and your people.'
