Austinites, who mispronounce everything (lol Manchaca), are halvening people.
You’d be amazed how much testing goes into any bitcoin release. It is one of the reasons Bitcoin just did what it’s always said it would do…like clockwork. You may not need to be that extreme, but maybe something like this. nostr:note12q9jy25ev7elht4vmvax7hx7gnmn0p7kgv0456r6ktsutjtc33esj7drqw

The penultimate post in my series on software development is finally ready. Invariant 4: Do What You Said You’d Do. Here I talk about QA and generally being professional in your approach to software development.

Still have ~1 million days to match for SNI donations. Send me your receipts!

The Satoshi Nakamoto Institute is doing a fundraiser to modernize the site’s design. What nostr:npub1j4u5gjzjyggr3h96x3gjy4akdgwxuk7mgvumv72gym2qyje7fn5s47d6x9 and nostr:npub1hxwmegqcfgevu4vsfjex0v3wgdyz8jtlgx8ndkh46t0lphtmtsnsuf40pf built over the years is remarkable, and Michael is now dedicating himself full time to the 501c3 to educate the next million bitcoiners. I owe a lot of my own understanding of bitcoin to SNI.
If you feel the same, please consider donating. If you donate, DM me your Zaprite receipt and I’ll match the first 2 million sats I see.

Release time!
In our biggest update yet, we've completely redesigned the home screen, added a nostr-based profile setup walkthrough, and have finished our initial fedimint integrations by adding a federation discovery & recommendations!
Most lightning wallets these days are what we call "invoice-oriented." We want to go back to the basics to solve what people are really trying to do: paying a person. We've added a new wallet creation flow to make the wallet about you!
The new version of Mutiny now allows you to create a new nostr profile, or import a nostr private key from an existing profile. From there, you can now DM other mutiny & nostr users to send or request money directly from the app. No more copy / pasting invoices!
To double down on social, we've redesigned our home screen to put people first. We now include a row of recent profiles for quick access. We also now have tabs on the home screen for looking at your payment activity, your friend's zap activity on nostr, and your payment requests.
Next up, better fedimint support!
Mutiny has had beta support for the fedimint protocol for a couple of months now. Instead of opening a lightning channel on your first receive, with a minimum of 100k sats, you can get started on a fedimint with just a few sats.
This new update adds a way to discover available fedimints to join. Naturally, the discovery process is powered by an open protocol built on nostr. You can see who recommends a federation, and add it with one click.
You'll automatically receive funds to that fedimint, as long as the amount is smaller than 200,000 sats, and you'll automatically spend out of that fedimint, with a fallback to your regular lightning balance. You can also swap from fedimint to your lightning balance at any time.
Coming up shortly after this release, we'll be adding federated lightning addresses that lock incoming payments to your key, which you may redeem at any point by coming back online. We'll be rolling this out to Mutiny+ users first, stay tuned!
Let us know what you think! We're excited about this new direction and need feedback to help us continue driving forward.

Looking good boys!

They also have an excellent OTC desk, generally good design. They have a lot going for them, but the focus is baffling.
Downloaded the Coinbase app for testing the other day. This is not a serious place to custody millions of bitcoin.

Bitcoin Takeover time. 
Still one of the most beautiful things about Bitcoin. You can achieve a nation state level security posture for a few hundred bucks.

To give you a sense of scale, on March 12 1836, colonel William Ward stared down 1500 Mexican soldiers - fully equipped and parading prior to attack - and refused calls to surrender. He had about 150 men. These guys were committed. This was the battle of Refugio which lasted 4 days.
It was also a bit of a shitshow. Infighting between leadership, disobeyed orders, and ultimate defeat. Many of the Texian men (mostly from Georgia) would be executed later at Goliad. However, they did just enough to seal the Mexicans fate. Urrea, the Mexican general, was slowed down just enough that he would never make it back to Santa Anna’s main army. That turns out to be a big deal.

We’re all getting second families.
I doubt fully self custody, but some form of collaborative custody, likely with other large financial services firms with Bitcoin products.
