BTC became a pop culture!

Ich finde den Personenkult um Milei gefährlich.

Natürlich ist es gut, wenn dysfunktionale Institutionen abgebaut werden, aber wieder übernimmt eine "starke Vaterfigur" die Kontrolle.

Democracy by itself is an empty phrase.

2 wolves and 1 sheep vote for their dinner. It's perfectly democratic, yet unfair.

Schon richtig, blöd nur, dass Schweigen in einer Demokratie als Zustimmung ausgelegt wird. Hier müsste man eigentlich ansetzen..

I'm so glad, BTC is not pumping. Let's me stack more sats. I believe in generational wealth and as long as BTC serves as store of value I'm fine with it.

Don't be greedy and appreciate the value of peace of mind!

I installed the tools on my umbrel. I will reach out to you if I get stuck 😉

I consider myself 'technically verse' and server setups is not a big deal for me. But when I looked into the topic of channel-management, rebalancing, etc. I realised that self-hosting Lightning is 'complicated'. So I won't run my own lightning node.

I understand the appeal of sending value in milliseconds by zapping. But with all these custodian customers, it's nothing more than the next commercial banking and no true p2p.

I hope to see more choice in BTC-scaling in the future.

...and that's fine for me. 😃

Not really, that would just substitute the UTXOs with new ones. You have to sell BTC with kyc in order to be able to deny ownership.

For that reason, I wish I had never bought on an exchange. Shitty sticky KYC.

We need to orange-pill without sending people to exchanges. I wish I learned that lesson earlier.
