The follow needs to be large and passionated, we have that in #Bitcoin and to a much less degree in #Nostr,
#Bitcoin have been getting tons of marketing free and paid by OGs for a very long time. This is key.
IMO, we need more marketing in #Nostr and... We need to onboard more aggressively OGs and mega influencers in the Bitcoin industry, Jack Dorsey and Jack Mallers are not enough Why the lack of support?. Now that we (#Bitcoiners) are not demonized any more we need to push for this.
Regarding #Nostr, nostr:nprofile1qqsgydql3q4ka27d9wnlrmus4tvkrnc8ftc4h8h5fgyln54gl0a7dgsppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qythwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnswf5k6ctv9ehx2ap0qyt8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kytc79p4zh recent post about his vision on where Nostr needs to focus to succeed is most interesting, in a way. I partially agree, IMO, we need a Swiss knife Nostr app, perhaps like Wechat from China without the surveillance features..., X is following that path, I believe we should to, that is what the market wants, doing it differently is cool but success is rarely achieved.
We need a free decentralized platform in which everyone can have free speech, we have the #Bitcoin financial layer to support it, the future is bright, we can build everything on top, with enough founding and the right ideas and following a model that the masses want and will use massively matters.
I would like to see more OGs creating dev support sites with funding options for interesting projects that follow a clear "Build Plan for that Nostr Swiss Knife" in a more decentralized manner, grants from anonymous donors to a non profit organization, currently, IMO, is very narrow and only few players which narrows the development to their vision of the Nostr Ecosystem.

#### 🇪🇺 Europe's Living Standards Hit 40-Year Low Versus US
European living standards are currently at their lowest level in over 40 years compared to the US, primarily due to stagnant income growth and rising costs, such as energy bills.
This is measured by Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita.
Income and Inflation: The typical adult's income in the EU has not kept pace with inflation, leading to a decline in real purchasing power. Energy costs have surged by approximately 60%.

Well said, their business model works, they pray on the ignorance and laziness of most.
In the age of the instant information and cyber crime at its maximum there is no excuse, self hosting your data is only logical, don't be part of a honey pot, governments employ people that could sell your data for a price (happens), wise up.
Challenging, we are trained to do the second, specially during conflict, a defensive poature requires quick thinking and fast responses, this is priceless, thanks for sharing ❤️
🗓️ THIS WEEK, WHAT TO WATCH:
Monday: U.S. ISM Manufacturing PMI
Tuesday: U.S. JOLTS Job Openings
Wednesday: U.S. ADP Employment Report
Thursday' U.S. Jobless Claims & U.S. Productivity and Labor Costs

🚀 Ending QT tomorrow December 1st halts approx $40 billion per month in total runoff, providing a subtle boost keeping that cash in the system (via reinvestments).
This will ease short term funding stresses (like lower SOFR spreads) instantly, as markets anticipate less reserve pressure.
What does it means for #Bitcoin?
Lower yields on short term Treasuries, potential Bitxoin rally (as seen post-2019 QT end).
All physical gold is held in dedicated vaults in Switzerland. This includes both XAU₮-backed bars and USDT reserve surplus.
🚨 TETHER JUST BOUGHT 116 TONNES OF GOLD MAKING IT THE LARGEST PRIVATE HOLDER WORLDWIDE
So a token peg to the dollar that does not trust the dollar, 🤣, got it!
Buy #Bitcoin, stay frosty
Have you consider that mostly 8 people (Musk, Altman, Zuckerberg, Nadella, Pichai, Huang, Hassabis, Amodei) are deciding for 8.26 billion people the future of the planet with the AI ventures?
Will governments act before this gets out of hand or... Is this already a lost battle?
We have 2 to 10 years left and most are not ready for it...
What you can do?
Buy more #Bittcoin !, just saying...

🚨 BREAKING: US Initial Jobless Claims Just Dropped 🇺🇸
Actual: 216K
Expected: 226K
Previous: 220K
The rate cuts looking good
What were the expectations?
>2.7% = inflation rising
<2.6% = inflation easing = 0.5 rate cut plausible
2.7% = nothing changes, sideways until waiting for CPI/PCE
🚨 THE LAST 24 HOURS IN THE BITCOIN WORLD
• Tether CEO: $BTC will outlast every attempt to stop it.
• BTC dominance steady at 59% as capital rotates back in.
• VanEck CEO questions BTC’s resilience vs. quantum computing.
• China now accounts for 14% of BTC hashrate, mining quietly resurges.
• Arthur Hayes: BTC won’t go below $80K.
What did I miss?

🚨 JUST IN: US Sept Producer Prices rise 2.7%.
Market reaction pretty much flat
The debt changed, it is out of control... The trillions in debt...
The war mongers understand the game so they are out for:
1) wars (moving the military and technological indistrial complex of their countries)
2) robbing small countries of their resources, preferable oil and gas but rare earths are other minerals are good too, by taking control of their resources they get more room to ask for more debt since they can use those resources as collateral. It is about collateral, think Venezuelan 🇻🇪 oil reserves, gas and their gold and rare earths...
Excellent, no complaints
🚨 This week will be interesting 🚨
1. ️ U.S. PPI Inflation, Tuesday
2. US Q3 2025 GDP Data, Wednesday
3. Core PCE Inflation Data, Wednesday
4. Jobless Claims, Wednesday

Volatility incoming?
Thoughts?
BTC vs Global Liquidity, the correlation is quite significant, 0.96 correlation 👀
QE starts in 7 days... 🚀
Tick tock, tick tock, the data says most influencers and analysts crying this is the end of the cycle could be wrong,
Not financial advice.
📰 🚨 🇪🇺EU Countries Chat Control Vote
As of September 12, 2025, the European Union Council meeting concluded with fifteen member states publicly supporting the Danish compromise proposal, which includes mandatory client-side scanning of encrypted messages to detect child sexual abuse material Four countries—Estonia, Greece, Romania, and Slovenia—remain undecided, making their final positions pivotal for the outcome
**Countries in Favor of Chat Control:**
* Bulgaria
* Croatia
* Cyprus
* Denmark
* France
* Hungary
* Ireland
* Italy
* Latvia
* Lithuania
* Malta
* Portugal
* Slovakia
* Spain
* Sweden
**Countries Opposing Chat Control:**
* Austria
* Belgium
* Czech Republic
* Finland
* Germany
* Luxembourg
* Netherlands
* Poland
The final vote by the European Council is scheduled for October 14, 2025, with the outcome dependent on the positions of the four undecided states.
Unreal that despite all cryptografy experts reports explaining the inefficacy of the proposed surveillance and the importance of E2E encryption for privacy as a human right, we still have so many countries in the EU pedaling this using child abuse as a excuse while doing very little to tackle the root problem itself with UN based recommendations.
Coming back to your main question, which was battery size, both batteries are indeed different, Pixel 10 Pro, for instance has a battery about 1000mAh larger capacity than the one from the iPhone 16 Pro.
Now both mobiles have a similar battery performance under heavy usage despite the size difference, but consider my answer above, the iPhone does the job for the user to dim the screen and keep the background apps dormant aggressively, while the Android user has the freedom to choose what is allowed in the background to work.
Not in my experience, my family and friends with iPhones are normally struggling with their battery life as much as Android users, it depends on the usage, here some comparisons of testing between the Piixel and the iPhone:
Battery Life: Both brands’ latest models typically last 1–1.5 days with moderate use (e.g., web browsing, calls, light gaming).
Charging Speed: Pixel 10 series supports faster wired charging (30W–45W) compared to iPhone 16’s 20W. The Pixel 10 Pro XL achieves 70% in 30 minutes, while others reach ~50%.
Testing Variability: Battery life depends on factors like screen brightness, always-on display, and app usage. For instance, disabling always-on display can extend battery life by ~20%.
Sources: Data is compiled from reviews and tests, including PCMag, GSMArena, and WIRED.
Additional Notes:
If you use an Android device you have more room for actions leading to more battery life. You can go to the app info of any app and remove its capability to background usage increasing considerably your battery life of you do that with the usual drainers like telegram and other social Apps, but not exclusively, I personally do that with most apps but Chat apps and my battery last a full day even with heavy use, just keep the screen as dimmed as possible since the screen time is the make contributor, having a dark theme in your mobile UI and apps you use adds up as well.
that is an idea🔥
curiosily, XChat, which is a pure messenger app from 0xchat does not work properly neither, much better though, Amber support, bunker support, notifications built in, missing voice and TOR, but excellent progress
🚨 If you trust Microsoft and use Copilot

The more I test Chat GTP, the less I like it...
🇬🇧 Banning VPNs for safety... the upside down world. Not clear how they will manage to enforce it but trying to make them illegal is already bad enough...
Suggestion:
For DEX swaps, use Bitcoin, not LN. IMO this is the best practice. LN for micro payments is great, for DEXs... troubles are common (failed transactions, time outs, etc)
With Bitcoin low fees now, the opsec and robustness is appealing.
Yes, it will take 10 to 30 minutes to fully arrive to your Wallet, but you will get the notification that the transaction is on the way.
kycnot.me is a good source of links for DEXs that protect your privacy, just read the summaries for tge proposed DEXs, not all are the same, some are known for breaking the nonkyc policy
If on Android, I will suggest you use #Amethyst and Communities, as depicted below:
If on iPhone, play around with #0xChat groups and #Primal "feeds", I assume #Damus have them too.
If on Desktop, #Nostrudel have it all!
It amuses me the young coders calling out Vibe Coding when we have been doing that for so many years, it was just harder since we needed to fork or analyze the code of others building our own libraries of reusable code...
Not so long ago someone coined the phrase Google Coding... now with AI is Vibe Coding, things evolve but don't change much.
If you are an experience coder it is most helpful, if you are an amateur or a wanna be, it will be challenging, you learning curve will be impacted but with proper discipline you will get there faster than your predecessors did
probably lots of hardcore libertarians here use it but it seems logical not broadcast its use
For few hundred to few thousand dollars payments and transfers:
For Nostr, zapping and IMO, below 100 bucks payments:
Minibits (ecash and lightning plus you can get your own vanity address) "self custody", so far a solid team, the wallet look and feel is awesome and the recovery options are top notch.
https://github.com/minibits-cash/minibits_wallet

Wallet of Satoshi (not self custody, most don't care, you don't put your life savings in a buggy L2, is for payments and zaps, so few dollars when needed, works and is easy on the eyes, no scandals, so far a solid player). you can get your vanity address too.
