Good morning ✌️🧡

just zapped an obvious scammer 21 sats fml

Thanx for sharing! Sounds really nice. Surely a different experience making music online than being in the same room.

I did not authorize this payment from my Primal

😰

yeah their reviews are less strict on testflight and new builds don't require new reviews, only major/minor versions.

This shit got way better since I last opened this app. Nice work

This deplatforming shit continues. A friend just got her paid flowcode site shutdown because she’s using it to help activists who arrested at black lives matter protests. Flowcode is kind of a linktree plus micro crm. They’re also being refused access to anyone who will process donations because although a legal defense fund for is entirely legal and constitutionally protected.

This is important, the right to speech and money shouldn’t be limited to those whose views are acceptable to the state or a few corporations that control retail fintech.

This is why I work on Nostr.

🔸WHY BITCOIN’S MEMPOOL IS CLEAR ? BRUTAL TRUTH 👇🏽

No more congestion… for now.

Bitcoin’s #mempool is clearing out, and it’s not just a random fluke. Several key factors are shaping this moment, but which one had the biggest impact? Let’s break it down #nostr:

✅ Lightning Network Is Holding the Line

While public capacity dipped 7% (now under 5,000 BTC) and channel count declined, routing activity remains strong—#LQWD alone processed 1.15M transactions with 978 BTC routed. Despite mixed signals, Lightning is still easing on-chain pressure.

✅ SegWit, #Bech32 & Batching = Smarter Transactions

• #SegWit keeps ~30-40% adoption, cutting fees by 25-40%. Exchanges like Binance still lag in full adoption despite handling 15% of Bitcoin’s traffic.

• Bech32 addresses now dominate (~65% of new Bitcoin wallets), slashing transaction sizes by 18-25%. Even old-school wallets from 2012-2013 moved $42M into Bech32 last month.

• Batching is crushing fees—@strike cut costs by 50-70%, and #Coinbase batches 90%+ of withdrawals.

✅ Miners Got Ruthless

December 2024 was brutal, with block confirmation peaking at 162.97 minutes on Dec 21. But by late this month January 2025? It’s down to 32.97 minutes. Miners adjusted. Blocks are moving.

✅ Retail Speculators Are Quiet

Fewer impulsive transactions = less congestion. Many are likely keeping #Bitcoin on exchanges instead of moving it around.

I love this network.

MEMPOOLS CLEARED BECAUSE MOST BLUE CHECKS HAVE NEVER SENT A BITCOIN TRANSACTION.
