Can anybody clarify why electric car would be good for the environment because they use electricity and #Bitcoin bad for the environment because it also uses electricity? #EV

After Shanghai, #ETH stakes can be withdrawn. A historically significant time to revisit what decentralisation truly is and rebalance portfolios! #Bitcoin

Since you call a group of black swans a "bank" (no joke), could you call a group of Nostriches a "self-custodial bank"?

Alright, so after doing some research, it seems that Lightning Labs' LN address is not usable for zaps on Nostr (yet, hopefully). Instead, one needs to use a "lightning network-compatible wallet that supports zap" (email-address like), which can be offered by many other apps. I just set up mine via WalletOfSatoshi (on Android), updated my Nostr profile and should now be ready to be zapped on Nostr.

Not very user-friendly yet, but we are still in the early days. ⚡

Well, ⚡️is only getting scalable now. Not sure what it would have looked like if it had been implemented by #Coinbase two years ago. Network overflow?

It doesn't matter, my #Bitcoin price feed seems to be frozen for the past two weeks. The price does not change anymore... Stuck on $28k 🤷🏻‍♂️

I thought a LN address was sufficient (mine is 375qmto2MSwTu64uDViB9KvFeTu7ANm8bk and is on my Nostr profile ). The LN-URL seems to be the outdated method. Plus, my Lightning app (directly downloaded from Lightning Labs' GitHub) does not provide me with any LN-URL. I am new to this; any guidance would be highly appreciated!

#Nostr will only really take off when notes are Nostr-only, not copies of your #Twitter posts. Think about the children 🟣

Alright, I'll take the bait and make some self-promotion (disclaimer). My new #Bitcoin book is now available for pre-order, an advanced analysis of the fundamentals behind cryptoassets and the underlying risks as of 2023.

Release early June, published with Apress (part of Springer Nature group). #Bookstr

Stop bashing "no-coiners". There are no no-coiners, only pre-coiners. People will get into #Bitcoin at the price they deserve.

It sounds more like a desperate statement to hang to their fleeting power now progressively vanishing due to the superior alternative. #Bitcoin
