Biden said inflation is all your fault because you keep paying more for things.

Serious Question: How will bitcon's volatility interact with ETF pricing and stock market circuit breakers?

As I understand it, a stock that trades down (or up?) more than 20% is halted for the day. What will happen to bitcoin ETFs if the bitcoin price drops enough to trigger a cirtuit breaker, but doesn't rebound for a few days or weeks? What if it goes up more than 20% one day, then back down the next? Will the ETFs just not be tradable? Has this ever happened in other commodity ETFs?

I like the MessagEase Keyboard. It's much easier to use on smaller devices and can be operated one-handed. It's a little like T9, but optomised for touch screens.

Unfortunately, I have no idea if they collect data on usage. This doesn't really bother me, though. I use a real computer to do anything important.

Can we port ordinals and inscriptions to Bitcoin Cash? Then, at least, it would be good for something.

While I'm sure they have had it ready for a while, they just got the excuse they need to try to enact it. It just showed up on the federal register today, giving us an opportunity to post public comment. It's also a great excuse to bring up FinCen an privacy in general to reps.

Thanks to SIM swapping attacks and phone company insiders having access, it's not even effectively verifying you.

Of course, we know the real reason they want a phone number is because they can use it to link you to everything you do on your phone.

It's not too late to protect your privacy! Little changes can make a big difference.

It's 'M@' as in Matt Groening, creator of the Simpsons. Definitely a hidden meaning, but not a conspiracy.

Hey, I heard some shitcoin was paying people to scan their eyeballs. How much do you think I could get for these?

This website is hosted by Nostr relays: https://nostr-webserver-3c29f7957ffe.herokuapp.com/e/1efc13c6ffbaf60c0347baf89f6ecaad22f74abf82165fcdb55ef7e8cca8a597

The HTML (kind 5392), JavaScript (kind 5394), CSS (kind 5393), and Images (Kind 1965/1964) are all hosted inside several relays and can be moved to any other relay if needed by simple broadcasting.

One day browsers will fetch nostr: directly. And then we won't need domain names or fixed servers anymore.

Code is here: https://github.com/vitorpamplona/nostr-web-server

So Nostr is Web 3 now? Suck it Ethereum!
