JUST IN: Satoshi era #Bitcoin wallet holding $77M BTC just moved 5 BTC mined in 2009 🤯

The owner of the wallet hodled from $0 to $63,000. Legend! 🙌

Booking hotels in Kyoto with #Bitcoin lightning using Alby Hub + Alby Go is so magical.

It is not private if you use major CEXs to buy it. In fact, there are exchanges that do not require the KYC procedure for registration - only an email/phone number.

But as a rule, those who talk about the possibility of bitcoin remaining an untraceable currency, usually do not consider exchanges as a way to buy bitcoin. Usually they are talking about P2P transactions and offline deals. In many countries (for example, in Turkey), there are street exchangers where you can exchange bitcoin or more often USDt for euros/US dollars and vice versa, and no one asks for ID. Such exchangers are in many countries, including the bitcoin ATMs you mention.

In addition, even having a registered account on one of the centralized exchanges, you can buy bitcoin and run it through a mixer, hiding the final address of the wallet owner. You can use the so-called decentralized exchanges, where you can exchange the cryptocurrency purchased somewhere else for bitcoin and, again, run it through a mixer, and then hide it in your secret wallet.

The path of a true bitcoiner also requires a secret computer with installed bitcoin and LN nodes, which is connected to the network via the darknet, and all transactions are signed by some fashionable hardware wallet like Coldcard.

Revolution is not always revolutionary.

Right, but what you are describing is iOS (a closed-source operating system). Android is open source, which is why Vitor prefers to build for Android.

lol, yep. They blocked the USA after some regulatory scares.

She's a Thai!

If you wanna use Lightning wallet on Nostr, I recommend a combo of Alby + Nostr Wallet Connect. I got an invite code, just let me know if you need one :-)

Strike wallet is a legal wallet in the USA.

The government banned it. You can’t use it in the USA.

the facebook protocol is still amazing. facebook has some of the greateat features out there.

It is extremely fast, the marketplace rocks, the groups, the pages, Facebook literally outcompetes almost everything out there

The issue with Facebook is not that it's centralized. The issue is the the people who control it are communists.

The features on Nostr are still not even close to what Facebook has.

Today is not a good day, but still GM #Nostr 🫂🎨

เช่นกันค่ะ! 🍻
