No, but running a node will give you more privacy and security. You should be running a node to contribute to the network regardless of your wallet choices. That being said, if you want a good desktop wallet go with Electrum. If you want a mobile wallet go with BlueWallet. If you want an offline cold storage device, I like Ellipal, but there are tons of great options, just make sure it’s an air-gapped device and you are purchasing it directly from the manufacturer.
Do you think the machines get angry when we joke about them? Can AI take things personally? Also is AI plural or a singularity?
Incoming House Financial Services Chair French Hill says we need a market structure for #Bitcoin
#Bitcoin #BTC #Nostr https://video.nostr.build/fbe2a3ed3f08dd07e29a91f3bc4f1a37f6599c645ddf97c4eda3f5c4456a0dcc.mp4
National Stable Coin is just code for CBDC! ☠️
Not currently, but from what I understand if it becomes necessary it would only require a soft fork. I mean the price of Bitcoin would need to be $100,000,000 for 1 sat to equal $1 so we’re probably talking about another epoch or 2 down the road.
That’s a great idea! I have seen people asking to meet up, but as soon as they say “Crypto” I figure it’s a scam. You should look into Opendime. It’s going to be a game changer!🤘🏽

LFG!!! 💪🏽🚀
Are you implying stocks are scarce? From what I understand companies can issue additional shares which dilutes your stock in the company. I think Microsoft is getting ready to do just that if I’m not mistaken.
Also, what is that green symbol at the bottom?
I’m not saying she’s a bitdigger, but she ain’t messing with no fiat holder!
That didn’t work out so well for Roger Ver.
Good point. Maybe this is the reason for Dept of Government Efficiency. To pave the way for a future with balanced budgets? I don’t know, but now I’m wondering if America will ever be subject to unrealized tax gains on Bitcoin. I mean it’s not far fetched since we already pay property taxes on our houses. I think that’s horse shit. How did we get to this point that we can lose our home that we already paid for including taxes and using money that we earned after already paying income tax for not paying an additional annual property tax using currency that is continuously debased?
🚨CNN: BITCOIN PRICE COLLAPSES DOWN 99.9999999%🚨

Crypto markets in TURMOIL as Coinbase halts trading pending stability review.
Well in that case we should BTFD and HODL.
Same!! 🍻
What’s his name?
What are you referring to?
Yeah, there are precious few physical things to get a Bitcoiner as a gift, other than swag. For the same price as a Bitaxe, you could get them a decent hardware signing device, but I would never trust one that someone else gave me, rather than ordering it directly from the manufacturer. Some manufacturers have gift cards available, though, such as nostr:npub12ctjk5lhxp6sks8x83gpk9sx3hvk5fz70uz4ze6uplkfs9lwjmsq2rc5ky.
How nice would it be to hit that 3.125 block reward before the next halving?
Mostly a novelty device for #Bitcoin enthusiasts. Mine is a cool little desk ornament that can be a great little conversation starter. There is some educational value there, as well.
If you point it at a pool you'll be maybe earning 50-80 sats a day, depending on the model you went with. It will take you years and years to accumulate enough sats to ever get a payout from the pool unless you mine with nostr:npub1qtvl2em0llpnnllffhat8zltugwwz97x79gfmxfz4qk52n6zpk3qq87dze or Braiins pools, which have payouts via Lightning. If you solo mine it's basically just sitting there making noise for the next 8,000 years, likely not finding a single block. But you COULD get exceptionally lucky and get a full block reward. Think of it like buying a lottery ticket with your electricity every 10 minutes or so.
It’s a cool gift idea for newbies! Pairs well with Opendime as a piggy bank.
