We have various custodians in the Bitcoin ecosystem. Yes, I personally prefer non custodial solutions and will always help someone self custody their funds. But the act of the matter here is that the majority of Nostr users are using Lightning wallets for Zaps on platforms in which they control zero keys. Shitting on a Nostr custodian is a bit hypocritical in comparison when there's a good chance you're using a custodial Lightning wallet. We can be better here.

Bitcoin will only be monetized once

Roman aqueducts were generally fed via the Archimedes screw; a technology similar to the modern day screw conveyor… in case you were thinking about it.

New amp. 🤘

Jade. It's low cost, and solid.

What are your favorite hardware wallets, among the latest generation of them?

And are there any that you really don’t like?

GM, What is your preferred zap size and why?

I’ll start:

1,000 sats is my default because it’s enough to actually mean something for the receiver, like dropping a quarter into every decent street musician’s cup if I was able to traverse like 100 streets in a day. It’s also just enough for me to be a little selective about what I zap. Lastly it still doesn’t wipe me out when I zap a lot.

My “Damn this is solid” zap is usually 2,100 sats

And my “Perfect 5/7” zap is 10,000 sats 🤣

I have this framed print above my desk that I absolutely love. It’s a gift made by someone who I’ve sadly lost touch with. A limited run series, it’s constructed from actual bitcoin block data. This one begins with a block from 2015. 🧡

First pit stop for some seaside brunch 😍

A cool privacy feature by Sparrow wllet allows you to create outgoing #bitcoin transactions that look like coinjoins. The more tools provide such functionality and the more people use this, the more pointless chain analysis will be. LFG!

Money printing is just defrauding the accounting system of society.

Central banks are institutions of fraud, not banking.

ESL - Esperanto Sign Language?

I grew up with ESL being a slightly derogatory abbreviation for ‘English as a Second Language’ but creating Newspeak is how we take cultural spaces.
