Non-KYC ATMs, stop using banks.
As a European, I don’t have access to Swan.
But if I did, I’d stop using the service ASAP. Just like I did with Relai when they banned me for using CoinJoins.
Fuck this dystopian shit, fuck all the “banking and custodian partners”, fuck any flavor of Bitcoin-only that’s synonymous with compliant (and ultimately anti-Bitcoin). 
In S14 E18 of the Bitcoin Takeover podcast, Calle and Lisa Neigut define the difference between open source software and free software.
While the two terms are interconnected and inseparable in the greater picture, both all open source software is also free.

Tonight I recorded a very nerdy interview with Lightcoin, Supertestnet and Bob (can’t find his account, maybe he’ll get tagged in the comments).
We talked about BitVM, ZK Proofs, OP_CTV, OP_CAT and lots of other stuff that makes Saifedean choke on his steak 😜
Will publish as soon as I kick off season 15 of the show 😎
Alby is one of the most feature-packed and integration-friendly Lightning wallets. It’s also the second most popular wallet among Nostr users.
But how does one get started with the onboarding? In S14 E14 of the Bitcoin Takeover podcast, nostr:npub1xv8mzscll8vvy5rsdw7dcqtd2j268a6yupr6gzqh86f2ulhy9kkqmclk3x explains that the process is as simple as downloading a browser extension and sending on-chain BTC to your designated address to gain Lightning liquidity.
Keep in mind, though, thatnostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm is custodial by default. For a sovereign and trustless experience, connect your own node.

According to Igor from Firefish, the platform is a peer to peer marketplace which connects people who want to lend their bitcoin to get a flash loan with investors who want to get cheap BTC in case of liquidation.
The 3 of 3 multisig and the dual oracle setup guarantees fairness all across the board, so no two parties can coordinate to steal the money in the contract.

The Supra Cycle #bitcoin price model predicts $40k by the end of the year.
Won’t stop until we all get girlfriends and Supras to receive blowjobs in them 🫡 
In S14 E10 of the Bitcoin Takeover podcast, Paul Sztorc (CEO of nostr:npub1nevsewvjqhrsmpfcpdqw6v3e9f6z8w9sq0yt8kpndk2cumw8g6hs5mjmve) explains how he believes Ethereum can be killed.
In a nutshell, it’s about draining it of its use cases and making it inferior due to its worse security primitives and unpredictable monetary base.

€145 for a hardware wallet + a metal backup is one of the best deals you will find anywhere.
And we’re talking about the Jade and the Cryptosteel Capsule, both excellent choices 😱
You can get them for €131 with promo code BTCTKVR, I have no idea how they’re making profits on this deal 😂
Was just thinking that yesterday I casually told airport security that I’m traveling with a Bitcoin wallet and they shrugged it off then let me go.
With the regulations that “Bitcoin bulls” & VC investors are trying to push, they would have asked me to unlock the wallet, declare how much BTC is inside and explain why I carry bitcoin with me before having it registered to some blockchain analysis company for tracking.
Take care what you wish for!
While Firefish is trust-minimized by offering a way to borrow fiat money against bitcoin collateral without an institution in the middle, there are still 3 ways that make Firefish centralized:
– a BTC price oracle
– a bank payments oracle to verify that the fiat is getting paid back
– a key from the multisig contract to resolve potential disputes

Buenos Aires, hola 👋🏻
Getting ready for the 11th edition of @labitconf, which conveniently takes place in Argentina a week before the final round of presidential elections 🇦🇷 https://video.nostr.build/2589614615ea1c29ca67a28d8d4ca5c785d40e5d7d28b051865f8c3580d4e4f2.mp4
Surprisingly, the security at Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris was much more relaxed.
Nobody asked any questions, I went through really fast.
While waiting in line, I also met a guy who was wearing a Bitcoin hoodie. Showed him the Cryptosteel Capsule around my neck, he smiled and rhetorically asked “you’re traveling with it, eh?”
Next stop: Buenos Aires airport in 14 hours 😵
