Is this a response to Pablo's demo?

I'm not that techi to be able to judge on that.

Yes custodial wallets are bad, but still better than no wallet on nostr.

Its great for UX if a bitcoin noob installs its nostr client and instantly can receive zaps, even if he does not understand what he received. Then this user possibly will study and understand what's going on and falls in the rabbit hole.

But on the other side there is a higher chance that SATs could he lost.

Would be great if the clients give you a warning when you reached a defined threshold and automatically makes a lightning transfer to your set self custodial lightning wallet.

#Bitcoins apps especially wallets need to get muuuuuuuuch much easier and smpler to be able to reach the masses I think.

Wallets today want to offer their users maximum options and flexibility. Who needs this? Definitely not the beginners.

In my opinion beginners want to be able to buy Bitcoin in the app/wallet. And when they want to try and send some to their friends or extend their p*rnhub membership the wallet should choose the fastest and cheapest way to realize this.

The beginner does not want to see the onchain fees or whatever. He wants it to happen.

The app should have options in the background like inchain, lightning, liquid or ecash or whatever will establish itself as a additional layer. And the app should choose the best solution for this. Maybe on installation the user could choose between transaction speed or cheapest fees. I mean people are used to the fact that instant money transfer costs additional money.

The wallet should have a preset how much % it holds on chain, on lightning and in ecash. For example 80, 15, 5.

There should be research on that to get a good distribution.

What I want to say is, that the magic should happen in the app.

People drive cars without understanding how a motor works.

They use smartphones and know shit what is happening inside.

This is where Bitcoin wallets/apps need to get to.

Later then when the beginners have skin in the game they will be more likely to spend time on studying bitcoin and can switch to wallets which need more experience.

If the bitcoinspace won't find smart solutions to do that I think banks will do. Then for the masses nothing would change. They will have the same old interface with all known options. Just that the bank is handling bitcoin in the background.

😎👍

They probably never will be ready for that if they don't come in a situation where they really feel the negative consequence of using the centralized social media.

And if we are realistic the majority never really will feel it because they just don't care.

We now can complain about them and putting ourselfs higher and thinking we are special and something better....

ooooor... we soooooo smart people finally start realizing the reality and try to find solutions how we can outplay the centralized solutions and make it better.

That will shift away the focus that normal people have to get better to the focus that WE have to find better solutions to get the normal people onnour side.

Because complaining about others is easy and will lead to nowhere.

Focus on what YOU can do better instead of what others are doing bad.

Its a market and if people are dumb, they are dumb. Make a product that fits. Deal with it. 😎

I know here on NOSTR everyone is Bitcoin Maxi and my concern will be irrelevant for you 😜

But I noticed something that maaaybeee could be a sign for the next rugpull. Definitely not a good sign.

In my first cRyPt0 then Bitcoin time I stumbled over #NEXO. Its some kind of Defi/Shitcoin platform. I'm using their VISA card where I get cash back in Bitcoin.

I'm a Bitcoin Maxi but I didn't kill my shitcoin past in one blow but I'm get rid of them step by step.

So the next one I will get rid of will be NEXO. Because they offer different Tiers with different features. I was Platinum (highest) and one of many features was that I had 5 withdrawals for free every month. So I could send Bitcoin I earned or bought for free and without any network fees (because Nexo paid them) to my self custodial wallets.

But recently they changed the free withdrawals from 5 to 1 for every month.

For me that's a sign that there could be decreasing liquidity so they have to reduce some benefits. Another concerning point is that they are more frequently adding more shitcoins to their platform. I guess tryingbto grab cash from the trend shitcoins.

That's why I'm withdrawing all funds from #NEXO and will be one step closer to Bitcoin only 🤓.

No financial blabla as I don't know shit what's really going on behind the scenes there. 😘

There is much potential in your art but why does "Keep Nostr Weird" involve more and more sexual graphics?

Are there no other weird topics to draw about?

😔👎

That sounds huge 🔥

Ah OK so you know it best, it seems.

If you are a Bitcoiner, then why the fuck don't you let the free market decide what is best and what will win?

Why you are doing politics shit and telling people what to do? That's not what Bitcoin stands for.

Some Bitcoiner nowadays are just hobby Bitcoiner. LOL.

So true! 🤓

Could you please explain a little bit what makes Vexl special against services like Bisq and Robosats?

With p2p local you mean that you meet in person to buy or sell bitcoin?

If yes, I think meeting in person at this time of bitcoins lifetime is not ideal.

Numbers can still go up a lot. So not good if someone knows my face and even when I mask myself there is a risk that you will get beaten and forced to hand out your seed if you want to keep your knee caps undrilled.

:D

But I'm really curious to hear about Vexl. Maybe I have a wrong understanding of its USP.

You mean external swap services like Boltz etc.? But then you have to pay the Boltz service fee for every tx.

When #Lightning ?

All my PWAs like Cashu.me and Stacker News disapeared from my home screen. Can an update be responsible forbthat behavior?

Im using Pixel5 with GrapheneOS and it happened twice now.

Are they paying fees? Yes. So let the miners have a good time and wait until these jpeg lovers get bankrupt.

Time will solve it if bitcoin is really really that strong, how people repeated and repeated years ago.

Crying and bringing fear to your readers does not solve anything. You are just using emotional arguments to get what YOU want.

Unless you are god and knows everything, I don't give a shit what you think is best for #Bitcoin.

So many people are whining right now and years ago everyone yelled how unbreakable Bitcoin is.

LOL

Who is backing the USD ecash with Bitcoin? The mint itself? And what can I do with these USD ecash, what is it different than SATs? I'm having a big blockage in my head about that USD ecash topic.

Sounds super cool but I don't get the thing with the currency. I can get $ ecash over lightning? So I could put them into my bank account?

But wouldn't be the difference here that no central company could manipulate what is trending? If it would be coded what is necessary to get in trending. e.g how many post about a topic in a certain time frame and gotten likes/zaps/replies etc.

I mean I guess I would like to see what is trending when it really! is happening right now in the world.

But as always, clients should build whatever they want. But could make it optional in the client. The market then will punch them in the face if it was a bad decision or reward them if vice versa.

Thank you. I'm looking forward to it. 👍

Using zap.store since a few days and liking it so far. But what I recognized is that updates are available in Obtainium but not on zap.store.

e.g. Simplex 5.7.3 available on Obtainium but not on zap.store.

Am I doing anything wrong?

Using GrapheneOS with Orbot.
