This is how I’ll send my correspondence from now on 😆

But on a serious note… this is pretty nice! Kind of want to do this.

every lightening wallet would have to be banned in the respective blacklisted country........you just need to know someone trustworthy to buy and send.

I’ve had a real chip on my shoulder lately and been feeling pissed off about a lot of things (personally and otherwise).

And even in that, I thank God every day for bitcoin. Like, fuck the money part, I just am so grateful that there is something they cannot control, they cannot kill, they cannot stop. That even as captured, as played, and as controlled all of the dialog around it is; they cannot have my bitcoin, and they cannot stop me from transacting with whom I choose and they cannot break cryptography from the very functions that are its nature.

The crypto sycophant shit is disgusting and vile; and it’s also an essential component of Bitcoin’s development. Nothing provides a better smoke screen for how important bitcoin is than the crypto bros and their active destruction the entire financial system with their debased garbage, outright scams, and criminal conduct. When the smoke clears, and all of that garbage shows itself for just what it is; bitcoin will still be plugging along, block by block, bit by bit.

And even more, Bitcoin gives me a reason to have hope. Hope that even with as fucked up as everything is, no one can’t make more bitcoin, no one can stop the network, and no one will control it. That hope is the smallest of light in a world of utter darkness; and yet it is in the darkest of nights that such a light can shine the brightest.

Tucker's recent statements that bitcoin was created by the CIA is now echoing through that general area of media.

HI've noticed on Threads, Bluesky, and even some apps here on Nostr that I’m shown a lot more content from people I’m not following. This is often due to reposts, quote posts, or just the algorithms at work. While this content can be engaging and spark conversations, it’s often not healthy.

I see people posting obviously or maybe obliviously wrong things, which then get corrected and boosted, creating a vicious cycle. For example, someone mentioned considering a hyphenated name for their kids. I shared how my hyphenated name caused issues with computers, especially with international travel. This led to many calling me a bigot because the original poster was a queer woman. It’s odd because I’m queer myself, but it seems they felt an amab queer shouldn’t share personal experiences directly related to the topic.

I also saw clickbait articles about triathletes vomiting at the end of an Olympic triathlon, blaming it on a polluted river. Yes, the river is polluted, but triathletes often throw up at the end of races, and the swim was two hours before the nausea hit.

These issues occurred on Twitter too, but I didn’t experience it the same way there. I used Twitter daily from the moment Jack invited me and our coworkers onto the service, and for me, the conversations were healthier. I understand that many others had negative experiences, though.

On Nostr, I see zaps often rewarding hot takes and posts that signal membership in one group or another. This seems to exacerbate the issue, as people are incentivized to make posts that cater to specific in-groups rather than fostering genuine dialogue.

My worry is that maybe we’re actually doing worse with the new platforms. Is this something other people are seeing? How do we navigate this and foster healthier online conversations?

That’s exactly what I thought. The only thing of importance was that he would free Ross.

Watching some of this bitcoin conference makes me .... less interested in bitcoin than ever before. Bitcoin feels like a SuperPAC, a lobbying group, or some other huge scummy political football.

What is the new edgy underground hacker thing that we should all be jumping ship into?
