Ah. You are correct. Great movie. Mea culpa.

Imo defending the name "Blockclock" goes against the ethos of decentralization and openness that Bitcoin and Nostr embody. Satoshi never trademarked Bitcoin, and Fiatjaf left Nostr open for all. Their choice inspired trust, innovation, and growth to me.

Instead of claiming ownership, let’s embrace the spirit of abundance. Share ideas, not restrictions. Build together, not behind walls. That’s how we move forward.

Bitcoin didn’t succeed by limiting use. Neither will we. Let’s free opensource everything and create a world where ideas thrive freely 🙏🤗

There is no motive to wheat and create division. There's a lot of motive to shut down a competitor. Believe what you want, but it doesn't make sense.

77min later and $40 to transfer money domestically.

When I told the banker I was taking money out to buy #bitcoin, he laughed and said it was going to crash.

It blows my mind how you have to ask a bank to use your money.

I have arrived 11:14 and can’t access a banker.

Let’s see how long it takes.

It’s a free event. There’s no “catch”

Trying to figure out Nostr and Damus and all this stuff! Social media for the future!

#introductions

There is a debate happening tomorrow from 7-7:30pm EST on whether or not #Bitcoin should become legal tender in the US.

My friend is hosting it on his platform, Debaterly.com, but hardly any of his audience is Bitcoiners.

Wouldn’t it be rad if we got a bunch of Bitcoiners to join as debaters, judges, or voting audience members? Good opportunity to orange pill rational pre-Bitcoiners.

It’s free to join, and there is a $250 prize, paid in BTC or USD.

If we don’t care about X, we shouldn’t care about Redsky.

After all, they are just siphoning people from X…

Build for future generations 🙌

The ETH/BTC ratio is the best way to look at the relationship between the two.

Since June 2017 the opportunity cost of holding ETH has done nothing but rise. That's 7 years of loss against the value of bitcoin in purchasing power and for the last 15 weeks that ratio has been falling like a stone.

The two darker blue lines are the long-term downward trough while the light blue line is ETH tilting its nose down and aiming firmly for the ground.

We have warned and warned and warned. We've been laughed at, made fun of, and called "Maximalists". We were right in 2017, we are right now, and will be right going forward.

It’s so weird that whenever there are discussions about decentralized platforms I see bluesky mentioned every time but zero mention of nostr - like it doesn’t exist.

Some bizarre universe or what

Many #Bitcoin Maxis became Maxis for a reason. Learn from the mistakes others have made and stay away from Shitcoins. It's not worth it.

My brother is always remodeling his house 😆

Reminds me of him

We are trying to see if we can do a Nostr invitation deep link that installs zap.store first and then opens the invitation data with a picture of your friend and a create a new Nostr user screen. When the user inserts his/her name to create a new account, zap.store installs a My Nostr Profile app (a signer, like Amber) and, in the background, asks the signer to create a new user. With the new user created, zap.store follows the friend recommendation to install a client.. say Amethyst. After installed, zap.store sends the users to an Amethyst that was already logged into from Amber straight into the user profile of the friend.

Flow is:

- New user receives a link (or scans a QR Code)

- Zap.store is installed, opens to a new user screen.

- User inserts the name, Amber is installed.

- Zap.store points to Amethyst to install.

- Amethyst is installed, logged in and ready to be used.

Lots of things happening on the backgrond to simplify things. The new user gets a new key, a signer and an app installed and ready to go.

I can’t imagine anything more entertaining. nostr:note1u6p2089pnu6kmh85dta9ycvvppcwpes2gw8j05l29elxtj0zh4qscq366z

Gm nostr! 🌧️ ☕️

Rainy Saturday here. Let’s see what the day brings!

Any weekend plans?
