Protonmail has a BTC wallet?!
Yup it's Bitcoin-only Layer-1-only tied to your email.
So now all I need is your email and I can see all your transactions. They claim it makes a new address, but this is propaganda if the input/outputs are being used together. This is the worst of both email and Bitcoin privacy.
You shouldn't be using a web app in a browser for your L1 Bitcoin, it should be in a local wallet like Electrum. Just like their email, you don't know what's going on in the cloud. They write "not your keys, not your coins", but they don't even let you use your own PGP key for email.
Further, they called everything else other than Bitcoin a shitcoin. Even if we ignore Monero, they still don't even accept lightning for their vpn/email. Lightning is far better at privacy than L1, and more economical.
This shows they are basically a honeypot propaganda outlet, with a World Economic Forum rep on their board, that hands over thousands of emails a year. Now they can add bitcoin transactions to give context to those compromised emails.
Once again, I urge you to consider self-hosting your email. Any small VPS is barely more money than proton's paid plans, and we have cheap plans to set it up for you if you're uninterested in reading technical docs, https://simplifiedprivacy.com/email-cloud-combo/index.html
Stop living in web apps. You can really be self-sovereign.
Self hosted email is something I've been interested in for a while.
But seems like some uphill learning to pull it off.
I was a fan of Proton for a while but then there were honeypot conerns and such. And I don't have the technical ability to audit their code.
If someone is running a home server is there an easy beginning to self hosted email?
The community. It's a pandora's box, but if you dig a little, there's so much open and welcoming plebs all helping each other.
The tech. It's the first of its kind in this age. Permisionless, uncensorable social media.
Zaps. Cmon, how cool is that.

As a high school ecomincs teacher there is nothing more important that I can think of than teaching #Bitcoin and #Money history.
Help me understand #IPFS and why it hasn't caught on? Seems like Torrents but with key pair encryption. This is good, no?
#AskNostr #ELI5 #Cryptography
Yes. Nostr is an amazing open protocol...
IPFS has intrigued me for a while. It's like Torrents but for more?! Why has this not caught on more?
You need some 🍷🍺 and some 🏕 🔥
Awesome! Get him on the BTC merchant map! Haha.
BITCOIN &⚡️LIGHTNING is *the* most important thing I could spend my time learning, building, and teaching. 🌏🗺
"Fix the money; fix the world," is REAL.
Here's some ideas:
-Meet people where they are in their understandings of money 💰
-Minimize trust, but be a person of "Trust Web"; integrity!
-Listen to normies concerns without offering solutions. Just listen. Consider why they think and feel this way.
-Never stop learning and reconsidering ideas, ethos and principles.
-Drill down to 1st principles of all things.
-Be open to changing your viewpoints if presented with new evidence.
Wow. 5sats/vb block transact fees. 👀🤷♂️👌
Cybersecurity giant #Crowdstrike: "Should we test the code before pushing it out?
has anyone been able to do a withdrawal from nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft's Nutsack? i tested this morning on multiple wallets and was unable to withdrawal via a Lightning invoice. the invoice was recognized and i attempted to pay it, but nothing happened afterwards.
Rugged lol.
Of the 2 times I used ENuts, only worked once... other time sats got lost.
