I'm not sure this applies to GrapheneOS. GOS is only available on pixel devices which uses the Titan M2 chip.
I found that interesting too. I didn't realize you could run out of nonces!
I found this which explains it pretty well:
Another block with a timestamp earlier than the previous block.
Block 797069 has a timestamp one minute earlier than block 797068. Can someone explain how this occurs?
Personally I'm more looking for quality clothing that has the look and functionality of modern clothing but uses natural fibres with minimal or no chemical additives. There are probably companies out there but it would be cool to support someone on #nostr
Does anyone on #nostr make clothes from good quality, natural materials? I'm starting to rethink how source everything. #bitcoin #value4value #grownostr
Canada was the first country in the world to offer a #bitcoin ETF. Now it looks like the flood gates are opening in the U.S.
My take is this:
Cold storage should be your primary method of saving bitcoin for the long term. Avoid exchanges at all costs.
However, for medium term, there are good tax benefits to holding some bitcoin as an ETF. In Canada those are a Tax Free Savings Account (TFSA), where all capital gains are tax free, and a Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP), which reduces your taxable income by the amount you put into it.
A special type of RRSP is a locked-in RRSP, which you cannot withdraw from until age 55. This type of RRSP is mandatory for people who were paying into a pension plan and then left their job. That pension payout is protected and must be put into a locked-in RRSP. The only way to expose those funds to #bitcoin is through an ETF.
Finally orange-pilled my neighbor. I've been working on him for a while. 🌽⚡😁
Have you tried blixt wallet? It's also non-custodial and runs a lightning node right on your phone. It has a lot of cool features and configurations.
Day 1 of the Canadian Bitcoin Conference in the books! What a day. Met some great people. Had a chance to sit down with Foss, Lepard, and Strolight for lunch - so awesome to interact with bitcoiners you've listened too for so long. Saw so many other great bitcoiners. Looking forward to day 2.
I think it's time to smoke some devil's lettuce and head over to the plate-licking after party.
Keep on bitcoining. This revolution is real.
Peace and love.
(Apologies for the poor quality pictures!)
Not a bad deal for 20 min of work!
The guys at RoninDojo are selling pre-installed GOS phones. I don't think they're trying to make a living off it, but it's a nice option for people who really aren't technical at all. But GOS has made it pretty easy with the web installer method and I think most people could probably handle that if they had to. I've set up several for my family, so the uncle Jim method works too.
I was just looking for something to listen to - thank you! I would zap you, but my zaps aren't working. Have to dig into it with getalby. 🙏⚡
I can't say for sure, but there is something so powerful about bitcoin, that I keep coming back to wondering if there is some connection to a deeper consciousness or higher wisdom. It's an inigma to me because the individual parts that make up bitcoin are totally grounded and reasonable extensions of what we know, but when combined and implemented as it is, the network is just so profound.
Either way, bitcoin is here and non-human intelligence is here, and both represent paradigm shifts in our consciousness. I think we should talk about this more.
Thanks for the resource. I didn't realize looking glass education had these kinds of courses.
Keep spreading the good word!
🤙
Thank you brother. Just followed you on Fountain, and will definitely give you a listen. 🤘
Mate, I liked your post. And I want to give it a try How should I get started? #bitcoin on Twitter??
You're on #Nostr now! That's all you need.
**WARNING** This may expand the current bounds of your rabbit hole. Sit back and relax. Have a drink, smoke some devil's lettuce, enjoy some magic mushrooms. But most importantly, open your mind.
#Bitcoin has literally changed my life. Before the pandemic, I was miserable. I hated my job. My family and I had just moved back to Canada and I was excited for a new chapter. I had no idea of what was about to unfold. Then, covid-19. But that was just the start.
Prior to the pandemic, I thought governments in western democracies were perhaps at times engaged in some questionable activities, but were largely operating in the best interest of the people to whom they were responsible. Ha! I see things a little differently now, to say the least.
I didn't understand why I felt so out of place in "the system." I felt a responsibility to provide for my family but I also felt like life didn't make sense anymore. Some people would call it a mid-life crisis. Why was I so miserable?
I discovered #bitcoin in 2022, but my world view had already been cracked having gone through the pandemic. I was ready for a new world view. And boy, did I go down the rabbit hole. I absorbed an enormous amount of content over the next few months (thank you #bitcoin twitter).
Within a few months I had quit my job, took my life savings and put it ALL into bitcoin. I was mining at home, running several nodes, experimenting with LN, holding my own keys, and orange-pilling my family. But that rabbit hole...
Once I started sourcing information on my own terms, I realized there was a whole new reality out there that was being hidden from us, and I was consuming that information voraciously. That information has brought me to what I want to share with you.
#Bitcoin is absolutely revolutionary. I believe that deeply. But there is a larger context that a lot of bitcoiners are either missing, or don't want to talk about.
*WE ARE NOT THE ONLY INTELLIGENT BEINGS IN THIS UNIVERSE**
As a bitcoiner, I am a truth seeker. And what I've discovered on this journey is that the truth is much bigger than #bitcoin. My whole understanding of our existence has been flipped upside down. In some ways that is scary. But it is also unimaginably beautiful.
We are currently living through a time where the discolure of non-human intelligence existing in our universe, and even more incredibly, linked to our planet and human evolution, is about to be brought to the mainstream. I've come to the conclusion that our universe is vastly more complex than most of us can possibly imagine, and that we are on the verge of not only a #bitcoin revolution, but a human consciousness revolution. I can't help but think about the connection between these two ideas.
I cannot un-see what I've now seen. This is only the tip of the tip of the iceberg. If you feel compelled to explore more, here are some references. If you feel like this is too much, that's cool. I completely understand. If you feel like criticizing what I'm saying, then I say to you, as any good bitcoiner would say to a shitcoiner putting down bitcoin: have you done the work to understand this phenomenon? If not, I don't have time to explain it to you. Do the work, then come back and we can have a discussion.
Check out John Ramirez (ex-CIA), Richard Doty (ex-counter-intel), Louis Elizondo (former director of AATIP), Avi Loeb (Harvard and founder of the Galileo Project), Garry Nolan (Stanford), Richard Dolan, Skinwalker Ranch, Robert Bigelow, Steve Basset, the Sasquatch Chronicles podcast, that UFO podcast, GAIA TV. This is literally the tip of the iceberg.
Peace and love.
