Lightning capacity back above 5,000 #bitcoin ⚡️⚡️⚡️

Over the past (almost) two years, this is the time where I usually tweet:

Beware the Bart.

However, it’s Uptober. And #bitcoin price has a hard time staying down in October—and the 4th quarter of any year.

Macro data still looks bleak, but I’m optimistic the $btc will find a way to climb the proverbial “wall of worry.”

Not investment advice, obviously. And I’m usually wrong, so don’t @ me.

Head down. Work harder and smarter. Keep stacking sats.

The next 24 months should be *interesting* at the very least.

I went to the Khan el-Khalili bazaar today. It’s a bazaar that was established 600+ years ago in Cairo and continues to this day.

Some of the architecture in and around the bazaar dates back that far as well.

The merchants sell all sorts of stuff, and there are also cafes/restaurants in there. The famous Al-Hussein mosque is right next to it, so during the call to prayer several times per day, many of the merchants will go in and do their prayer there.

There are also a ton of stray cats, stray dogs, and beggars in the bazaar.

The bazaar has a mix of good stuff and lame stuff for sale. A sad thing in Egypt is that a lot of trinkets for tourists are cheap made-in-China objects. Eg if you buy a little metal pyramid keychain, or a little metal statue of an Egyptian god, it’s likely made in China. Within the bazaar, a general rule of thumb is that metal stuff directed at tourists is mostly made in China, while textiles, stone, and ceramic objects are likely of Egyptian origin. A large part of the bazaar caters to tourists, but there are also some subset of shops geared more toward locals.

GM, nostriches!

Nostr, hello.

Is there anybody out there?

Government grows ever larger and more powerful by “legally” stealing your purchasing power via taxes and inflation.

People can slowly defund and diminish this nefarious scheme by exchanging their fiat currencies for #Bitcoin, which is designed to preserve and grow purchasing power over time in a decentralized and secure manner.

PSA: My default #zap amount is still 696 sats.

I have never zapped less than 696 sats.

I will continue zapping 696 sats until sat-cent parity.

I’m so fucking bullshit.

Nostr engagement rate has been blowing X away all year.

A Bitcoin company ultimately doesn't want to hold your funds for you, allowing you to freely move around the Bitcoin ecosystem. A Nostr company should function in similar capacity, not holding your identity, allowing you to move around from client to client as you please.

The Mediterranean Sea from North Africa is warmer than it is in Europe. It’s also frequently less crowded.
