I think it was nostr:npub1rtlqca8r6auyaw5n5h3l5422dm4sry5dzfee4696fqe8s6qgudks7djtfs who argued that bitcoiners and grandmothers basically give the same advice:
-Save money, go for walks, plant a garden, eat real food, don't trust the banks, focus on your community, get some sun, etc.
I think that comparison is under-marketed. We need some memes about it or something.
Great thing is that with bitcoin the saving advice is now again valid.
Just unsubscribed from Twitter Blue.
Everything nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx keeps telling us about that service is true.
It's deeply disturbing.
Nostr and Bitcoin are our hope people!
Never had a blue check and never will.
Oh yeah, I forgot to first setup my lightning address. Thanks for reminding me to add it! Zaps should now work.
When I didn't know of bitcoin I was nihilistic with no hope for future. Bitcoin was the antidote for the nihilism of fiat world.
For me it's not worth it to hedge for the outcome of fiat winning, because it's not a world worth living.
If there are any solid lightning node operators (with clearnet address) willing to open 50/50 3-5M sat channels, hit me up for one!
I'm on my second node looking to grow routing capacity with solid peers and long lasting channels.
My node is running on NUC mini-PC with Raspiblitz and I have practiced migration process for longevity so that there's no need to close and open again when upgrading hardware.
Hybrid mode for good availability and routing performance.
LNDg for dynamic fees for good routing flow.
UPS for networking and node hardware.
Future plan is to upgrade for RAID setup once I've reached decent capacity.

Principles of Economics by Saifedean
Critique toward Bitcoin and custodial Lightning Network usage seem to suffer from nirvana fallacy: "Bitcoin (in it's current form) won't allow every single transaction in a hyperbitcoinized world to take place in L1 or even L2, thus Bitcoin is trash."
Yet they miss that an immutable final settlement layer and a "trustless banking layer" aka. Lightning Network results high competition for custodial solutions which results with IMMENSELY better banking services compared to the government granted banking cartel we have now.
Just because Bitcoin transactions don't (at least yet) scale to easy global trustless payments, it doesn't mean it's not an improvement.
Hello NOSTR!
