Hey nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z , how do I edit this message?

Very bullshit.

Preparing, yes. Fear, no.

Fear causes us to make mistakes and rash decisions in our preparations.

This doesn’t mean we shouldn’t act with a sense of urgency. But rather we should have hope.

That is why our manta is Prepare with wisdom, not fear.

Thank you for making this the first reply.

Made me a bit worried that I was not seeing it as I scrolled through the list.

I like the note. Added to queue.

Did I miss the “stay humble, stack sats”?

Excellent points here.

There is a setting in Phoenix about automatically splicing in additional sats if the transaction exceeds your available inbound liquidity. But this is an on-chain transaction which can really hurt if your transaction is small and the fees eat most of the transaction. Imagine paying $2.50 in fees to receive $3. Instead, you could manually send a large transaction from yourself, pay $$3 in fees, and then send your own sats back to the original wallet to free up the inbound liquidity.

I would add a comment about the “add liquidity” button.

If you are planning to use it as a business, maybe as a one time at a farmers market, you may want to consider adding liquidity. This is where the company behind Phoenix will add a bunch of inbound liquidity in the amount you select. Looks like they charge 1% plus the miner fee to have the liquidity for a year. And I can select between 100,000 sats and 10,000,000 sats liquidity.

Nice feature if you find yourself a sour to make a lot of sales and didn’t prepare the liquidity ahead of time.

Keep up the positivity and frequent posting.

The American Values that you hold dear are bigger than the nation of the United States.

First time it has been embodied on this large of a scale, but bigger than just that.

Freedom, liberty… yeah, but it is more than that.

It is the idea that you can put in an honest day’s work and get an honest day’s pay.

It is the idea that if you want a better life, you can lower your time preference, save money, work harder, save more, and achieve your dreams. Move up, move out, whatever that means for you.

These are the things that are stolen by the hollowing out of the nation we grew up loving. Inflating the money away means that hard day’s work you have been doing is worth less as the years go by.

That second shift of overtime, those bills stuffed under the mattress, devalued intentionally.

Are the people and systems causing this going to fix themselves, not likely.

But these same values are what attract many to Bitcoin. Solid money that won’t be inflated away. Lowering your time preference, an honest day and honest pay. These are the American Values that Bitcoin embodies. These are the things that will outlast the dollar. Not because some politician shows up and says they will make it all better. But because Bitcoin will allow us to live the lives that need to be lived to keep the American values alive. Whatever else may be.

nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx ran the numbers and the current equivalent is somewhere around $78k.

Looking forward to using a money they can’t inflate.

Sour cream is also really easy. She got a starter that works wonders.

Obviously yogurt too.

Tried cream cheese, but I seem to recall it didn’t turn out for some reason. I think the flavor didn’t hit quite right.

My wife is trying out the cheese route with our unsold raw milk.

Having to wait 6 months to even try the cheese really does lower your time preference.

Trying right now to see if I can work out a deal to trade some grass fed/finished beef for some delicious jalapeño dip.

Or a chicken and the egg problem.

The blue policies lead to welfare dependencies and poverty mindset. These policies and mindsets also drive further population density as the only possible ways to support the programs without instantaneous destruction.

But they feed on each other. In a festering sort of way.

Of course, but if your $5 peg is getting inflated away, the peg is what needs increased frequency of updating.

What are your thoughts on a situation where the national currency is also highly inflationary? 40% annual inflation would still require numerous price adjustments and would be challenging to automate in this way.

Had to reprice my egg layers three times this week.

Fiat money.

Fiat food.
