I don't suppose Iyah's on nostr yet?
I want to be able to listen to her music on nostr:npub1yfg0d955c2jrj2080ew7pa4xrtj7x7s7umt28wh0zurwmxgpyj9shwv6vg!
So far, this note has stacked 42 seconds.
What an awesome year you had! Congrats on all of these epic wins. #POW
I can't wait to see what you do in 2025!

You as well!
Hello 2025, LFG.
I don't, but it's always an option. 💜
Yeah, that's on my list for 2026. Might get moved up though...
I'm trying to zap, but my zaps seem to be struggling right now....
Happy new year freaks!!! It’s all about enjoying the journey, not focusing on the ends, if we do, we’ll miss all the joyous scenery along the way.
From this time last year, I’ve stacked, i’ve mined (hosted not in my house 🫣, 25p electricity kind of does away with it), I’ve ran, I’ve biked (not as much as I’d have liked), I’ve worked (on meaningful activities), the option of cutting back on time spent in the fiat mine is within reach. Some articles published, some written and sitting in people’s inbox 😫
Best pieces of work for me were one of the articles that led to writing a book (that my mum has read, and liked), which in turn led to one of the best articles i’ve ever written (another world of what I used to research) which is currently being revised from a perspective piece into a pseudo literature review. Not the form I wanted, but may help it get published…… who knows.
Now to work on 2025 goals, maybe publish the book (sorry for the slow response nostr:npub1w8ep3xc7s6kaf298rr6xhh5zy5amndlnceyulmt6xkg7tuhq3qdsqhx9ds), publish more, meet with bitcoiners in real life (carry over 2024 goal, online chats and emails don’t count, sorry nostr:npub1wl39ydk5rpecvtrzhq67afl9ykn2ty2xdxdkfmyan0rss3f3ma5sndznlx ), write more response articles to crappy Bitcoin related research, meeting with people using Bitcoin in their business (for research), buy a new bike which then leads to having a day at a bike park (with my brother and nephew) a touch fiat but may use cycle to work scheme.
Nothing too excessive, but focus still needed, my Bitcoin patter/chat up needs improving. To be honest, my chat up lines were always kinda shit, so I’m just going to direct them towards what I’ve written, then they can come back all 😍. Doubt that would have worked in a club in the naughties, but maybe it will work now.
#grownostr #bitcoin #thanknostr i love you guys.
To an even more productive and focused 2025!
It had already auto-sold the required amount of Bitcoin.
It may have been a delay between selling and crediting the cash balance to pay the bill. Either way, it resolved itself within hours and this is the same experience I've heard from others who have encountered this message.
I've had 3 bills paid through Strike Bill Pay so far. All of them were paid successfully, though one resulted in the negative balance message I referenced.
I'm still very excited about this product and am really enjoying using it, I'd just hope that the UI could be slightly more clear to avoid causing users distress when it isn't due.
If I could only be so lucky.
nostr:npub1ex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jq6qvyt9, nostr:npub1cn4t4cd78nm900qc2hhqte5aa8c9njm6qkfzw95tszufwcwtcnsq7g3vle: I recently had a Bill Pay payment process, and was left with a message saying that I had to resolve a negative cash balance before I could continue using Strike.
I opened a support request, but the issue cleared itself within 3 hours. I received a response to my ticket which I'm sharing below.
Is there any chance that that the UI could be altered to make it more clear (or at least less alarming) in these cases that this "negative balance" is just a temporary discrepancy?
Thanks as always!
#asknostr I have a friend who is looking for a very simple (and ideally free) way to acquire a NIP-05 verification.
I could give him one for free, but assume he doesn't want to be placed under the umbrella of my brand. 😂
Any suggestions for a stock standard NIP-05?
