White wine for the more refined 👌🏻
Same. nostr:npub1wnwwcv0a8wx0m9stck34ajlwhzuua68ts8mw3kjvspn42dcfyjxs4n95l8 is my go-to now for desktop.
Have found Nostr to be more reliabile and performant than Twitter over the past few months.
It’s the social graph which is so hard to replicate.
The biggest barrier I've encountered with my #bitcoin orange pill side mission while on tour in Africa has been the lack of data available on their phones. The 2nd was the lack of Google use. I'm not sure what version of a "app store " they use here but I didn't recognise any of the wallets available to them enough to recommend it. Was hoping I could easily just get them to download nostr:npub1hcwcj72tlyk7thtyc8nq763vwrq5p2avnyeyrrlwxrzuvdl7j3usj4h9rq or Muun as its a great starting point.
Convincing people that the government and banks are not to be trusted was the easy bit.
Alas I continue

nostr:npub1hcwcj72tlyk7thtyc8nq763vwrq5p2avnyeyrrlwxrzuvdl7j3usj4h9rq can’t see .apk files on your GitHub or on F-Droid.
Can’t even find your GitHub.
Closed source and custodial?
I’d like to think it’s really him, but sadly I suspect it is not 😭
What vpn provider are you using? 😂🤣
There are a few use cases I can think of, which the market has signalled have merit:
- Scalability
- Privacy
- USD stablecoins
- NFTs / Ordinal Inscriptions
I don’t find any of the criticisms of BIP-300/301 to be convincing.
Maybe I’m missing something, but this seems like a very elegant approach.
Then again, I supported BIP-119 CTV which received vocal opposition from the broader user base, so maybe I’m not thinking adversarially enough.
What is the most important reason not to move ahead with Drivechains and Blind Merged Mining?
Just finished syncing my node over Tor. Seems feasible enough 😂
Yep, but in this model the sidechain has its own miners who produce blocks and collect fees.
The multiple sidechains then compete in an auction to pay the highest Bitcoin transaction fee so that their hash is included in the base layer blockchain. This is only required to peg out of the sidechain and withdraw BTC back to the base layer.
In your example, the CBDC administrators could censor any transaction they like within their sidechain and do not require participation or collusion from Bitcoin miners.
If you haven’t already seen it, Ken Burn’s “The Civil War” is a fantastic series.
Insane views right out the front door. Nature rocks!! https://nostr.build/av/02b847aa2e46d6afba818b7fb03885da0aa5db298cf1e7a461ca46e73c515505.mov
Beautiful 😍
Nah, will probably get more efficient at digging rocks out of the ground though.
And I guess we still have education and tourism, right?
I fear we will forever remain consumers of US IT services, including cloud, AI, quantum etc.
Yep, but if it increases 75% of a given period, and only decreases 25% of the time, the issuance will actually occur very slightly faster than projected!
Yep, but ‘America’ isn’t a continent 😂
For those who don’t yet understand the #bitcoin difficulty adjustment, check out the below…
See it says Avg Block Time 11.7 minutes?
In order to keep the issuance of new bitcoin stable, Satoshi introduced the ‘Difficulty Adjustment’.
See where it says Next Difficulty Adjustment -1.4%?
That means that the difficulty will go down by about 1.4%, which will make it easier to mine bitcoin blocks, and this will bring the average block time back closer to ten minutes.
The difficulty adjustment occurs every 2016 blocks, which is approx every two weeks.
Tick tock next block 🧡
Thanks to nostr:npub104pdpaatsqe372lj57rrfudv0r03ynwj000mxnlzjn27x2enc72s8aa6da for his great
site https://timechainstats.com 🔥 
As bitcoins hash rate tends to increase more frequently than decrease, would this not lead to blocks being created at a faster rate than the issuance schedule would otherwise indicate?
