I'm not Digit, and you sure aren't either while you talk like your opinion matters

You associate bring secular and intellectual with consumerism? Backwards ass psycho bullshit, fuck you

What if #women returned mainstream to being spiritual guides? From what I’ve been reading, it seems like this could lead us toward a more balanced and #loving path. They are goddesses! What do you think?

Devuan: The Non-Woke Debian Linux Fork (Without Systemd)

Gm, Bitcoin mining pool payouts should be in ecash so that the submitted work and reward can be decoupled for increased privacy and simpler accounting.

The Bitcoin open-source project needs as many developers as it can get.

We're taking back money. Join us.

Я же инвалид. До пенсии на счету 1000 рублей осталось.

Бабушке-сосодке рассказали о крипте и продали каких-то шиткоинов на 250 тысяч рублей. Нет у неё теперь ничего.

Сука старая, ты как их накопила?! И как можно обладая такими навыками накопления купить шиткоин (хотя скорей всего это была вообще какая-то виртуальная валюта), а не биткоин?! Ну как, блядь? Ведь все знают про биток, но такие, не это чот спекуляция, цру создалм, а вот хуеток-25 это тема. Дайте десять!

I'm a bit surprised tbh that so many Nostriches are shilling and celebrating #DeepSeek. They even collect your device information and keystroke patterns.

Another day, another exchange I am suspended from.

All of my funds are conjoined or swapped between LN/XMR for privacy before sending to exchanges, triggering all sorts of nonsense AML flags.

The exchange I am with now is requesting proof of funds, meaning it wants to see fiat coming into my bank account from an entity I have a business relationship with, asking me to "kindly assist them" in surveilling me.

Except that all of my business relationships are handled in bitcoin – meaning that it is impossible for me to show proof of fiat funds.

Alternatively, the exchange says, I could send them “the address” to which I received payment in the last year, matching the amount of money I have exchanged on their platform.

Obviously no such address exists as I create a new address for each transaction (and so should you). Additionally, much of my money comes in through donations, for which I simply do not have an invoice.

I could now send them every single zap I ever received on nostr in the past year – for context, that would be over 250 zaps in the past week alone, s/o to all the zappers – or I could move my business to Switzerland, where I can exchange up to 1000 CHF per day KYC-free (for now), which is what I’m going to do.

However, since I’ll be more heavily relying on peer-to-peer exchanges from now on, I’ll likely have my bank account flagged for receiving weekly payments from randos on the internet, making it fairly foreseeable that I’ll be losing my bank account in the coming months as well.

Fundamental rights violations aside, the amount of complete nonsense work – and with that costs – this system creates both for the Government and private institutions is absolutely astonishing. If there ever was a true bullshit job, compliance officer would no doubt be it.

It’s time we end the global discrimination complex inherent to the financial system in which we are all guilty until proven innocent, only to upkeep an inefficient system that is useless in preventing crime but formidable for imposing mass surveillance on the people.

So no, I will not "kindly assist you" in surveilling me, and if I die on this hill.

Until then, shill me your favorite tools to pay my bills in bitcoin 👇

Been stuck at a coffee shop all morning waiting for bitcoin to go back to $100k before paying the bill

Finally. I’m out. 🫡

You don't have to choose between Bitcoin as Store-of-Value and Digital-Cash.

Fighting SOV bitcoin is like fighting water. Bitcoin is a central bank replacement. It's the only non-counter-party thing you can really own.

The Mempool is sub 5sat/vB, it's cheaper right now to send L1 sats than anything else.

So why don't people send it?

NgU and Gresham's Law will work against bitcoin as Digital Cash until people don't have any other garbage to spend first.

Natural incentives hold bitcoin from being used as digital cash not narratives.

Keep building the Digital Cash tools, eventually there will be nothing else to spend but bitcoin.

Sometimes when I tell people that children and family are the meaning of life they get triggered.

“It’s not for everyone” they’ll say.

And granted the odds that you find deep rooted and lasting meaning in some sort of passion, hobby or career is not zero….

But let’s be honest it’s pretty damn close to zero.

I say this not to trigger or shame, but because it’s true.

Just like Bitcoin is the truth so is this.

Children are the meaning of life.

It’s why we are here.
