#whale sightings today.
It’s great to be alive!
GN #nostr peeps
GM (Good Month) Faugust has arrived along the Northern California coast.
#Fogstr
GM Nostr Peeps!
#ProofofWork
It’s all around us!
#dogstr
Have started and really enjoying it. Appreciated the *context* for a variety of reasons, most importantly it grounds the review that follows in a certain perspective(s). I wouldn’t be as interested in the full, breakdown spoiler-version. Thx!
Also, good night and huge congratulations to all the athletes, their coaches, families and supporters. Winning gold is pretty fun to watch!
Good night people of #nostr
Not necessarily for dreams, better for discussion…
I’m re-listening to John Perkins, Confessions of an Economic Hitman. Good stuff.
Asked ole ChatGPT a bunch of questions and was thinking of reading or finding some interviews with these authors.
Open to suggestions
Tim Weiner
• Key Works: “Legacy of Ashes: The History of the CIA,” “Enemies: A History of the FBI”
.
William Blum
• Key Works: “Killing Hope: U.S. Military and CIA Interventions Since World War II,” “Rogue State: A Guide to the World’s Only Superpower”
James Carroll
• Key Works: “House of War: The Pentagon and the Disastrous Rise of American Power”
Well, I guess the US doesn’t have the leverage it thought?!?
Another misstep on the road to global financial hegemony via the petrodollar and global reserve currency?
Gradually, then suddenly. #bitcoin
Danny and I just wrapped up the final episode of What Bitcoin Did at Bitcoin Park, recording with some of our closest friends in #bitcoin - nostr:npub1cn4t4cd78nm900qc2hhqte5aa8c9njm6qkfzw95tszufwcwtcnsq7g3vle , nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx and nostr:npub10cxz2h7n6rumfpuf49zt4uvm7skzqk5u25vesp0tzdtnkvsnwjyqaffcj3, along with special appearances, including my son.
The episode will be released on August 30th. After that, we'll take a week off before launching our new show (the worst-kept secret).
After 7 years, 860 podcasts, countless flights, and visiting about 40 countries, the time is right. Time is precious. I need to travel less and focus on Bedford, the football team, family and bringing to life everything we've discussed over the past 7 years.
I believe we're entering a new era where #bitcoin is a legitimate part of every conversation. Our new show will reflect this, so we’re building a studio in London and evolving the format where #bitcoin is the heartbeat not the headline.
Thank you to everyone who has been part of this. I couldn’t have done any of this without the kindness and generosity of so many of you, especially nostr:npub16le69k9hwapnjfhz89wnzkvf96z8n6r34qqwgq0sglas3tgh7v4sp9ffxj .
I'm humbled by it all and everyone of you.
Big love ✌🏻
Congrats! Amazing run and now onto many more adventures! Look forward to following along and getting to Bedford soon!
GM! Ready for anything with my #resistancemoney
and my #dogs!
Well this is quite interesting! What will the world come up with next?!? LFG #nostr
GM all you childless cat ladies! Happy Freaking Friday!
I’m hearing more and more grumbling about the state of current *economy* … random convo with nurse this week:
I was going to retire next month, but I decided to keep working a bit longer cuz everything is so expensive!… education is the third key. Education and awareness is essential for sustained self-custody, seems to me. Keep spreading the word of #bitcoin
On the *bright* side, many new young voters will get pulled into the system by more hopey-changey BS… followed by an important lesson in reality, possibly leading to finding #bitcoin and #nostr
Another “W” for centralizing critical operations… nice recovery CrowdStrike. I hadn’t heard this last part, but wow…
This is the way
WTF- no midgets?!? Sacrilege
For as long as I code, I will contribute to #Bitcoin as a medium of exchange. Satoshis must flow to all humans around the world.
If it is a Bitcoin conference, it must accept $BTC!
Proud to see TheBitcoinConf running nostr:nprofile1qqs22d4tralncqfnh2kmmarjkxk8449hwnk5xtqe3y5yry6hy7ytegqpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qgcwaehxw309ahx7um5wghxvmt59emkj73wvf5h5tcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsymkvl9 with nostr:nprofile1qqsvn0dkjt80raqrxd470c98n7zrdehmcvj6p5hgw3kyku6zyd8z0fqpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmp0u3n0wh plugin!
It's obvious - Lightning has matured so much since I first integrated it in nostr:nprofile1qqs22d4tralncqfnh2kmmarjkxk8449hwnk5xtqe3y5yry6hy7ytegqpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qgcwaehxw309ahx7um5wghxvmt59emkj73wvf5h5tcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsymkvl9. It is now ready to help us 🍊💊 everyone that wants to use Bitcoin for commerce.
It's as easy as a regular credit card experience - tap to pay!

I spent over 4 years at nostr:nprofile1qqsvn0dkjt80raqrxd470c98n7zrdehmcvj6p5hgw3kyku6zyd8z0fqpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmp0u3n0wh coding and helping build fiat on and off ramp - at the end of the day, we need interference for legacy systems.
In the last month, finally the two pieces are connected with the plugin:
https://github.com/rockstardev/strike-btcpayserver-plugin
This plugin is heavily based on work Marfusios (https://mkotas.cz) has done, and me and nostr:nprofile1qqspyj93dt9uvc7k9gx05slhulzu664ectrdk0smvdu0q8nv9csw6jcpzdmhxue69uhhqatjwpkx2urpvuhx2ue07fyxsq have tweaked it for all the merchant vendors in Nashville.
An exciting week is ahead for us at #Bitcoin2024! Thanks to everyone who helped power it with Bitcoin payments.
I can't wait to see Trump, Ross and David Bailey Bolt Cards in action. Hit me up if you see me on the conference floor; I might have one for you 😘
Finally, kudos to nostr:nprofile1qqsqfjg4mth7uwp307nng3z2em3ep2pxnljczzezg8j7dhf58ha7ejgprdmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujucnfw33k76twwpshy6ewvdhk6qg5waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t0qyt8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnswf5k6ctv9ehx2aq93vhd7 for helping make this happen ✊🗽
