Wouldn’t it make sense if you’ve got a 3 of 5 multisig solution to keep the seed phrase with the signing device?

What’s the best practices for securing the seeds of your signing devices?

Last summer I set my nieces & nephews up with an arrangement where I give them $2 in Bitcoin for every test they get a good mark on, and $1 every time they help their parents with something extra around the house that they weren’t asked to.

My 7 year old nephew has a page of 50 good deeds and school assignments already!

Does anyone know a great way to get kids some sats in this way where it’s not easy for them to lose it over the years.

(I originally gave them a SatCentives card, but it doesn’t work so I haven’t been sending them the sats, just had them keep a list.)

I’m so stoked to go to Baltic Honeybadger this year!

RIP #[0] on twitter

This morning over breakfast, my husband who spends his time on finance/bitcoin only like 10% of what I do, was discussing the news and said we should get some more bitcoins.

Literally the cat breakfast newspaper meme.

Question for #selfhosters, which one do you generally prefer and why?

A) Containerize the service with e.g. Docker

B) Run the service directly on the host machine

Too many people have given Elon a pass. Don't give him a pass.

He's a marketer, not a founder or an engineer. He didn't found PayPal or Tesla; he bought into them early. He's good at selling narratives and equity valuation for perpetually unprofitable companies.

Everything for him is a narrative. His green revolution was a narrative to sell more cars and get more subsidies. His bitcoin purchase was to gain appeal among bitcoin/crypto people in a bull market. And he shilled doge like a dumbass. His SpaceX narrative is to get money from the government.

His rooftop solar thing was an outright scam; the technology isn't ready and went nowhere because of that. His full-self-driving-in-an-intermediate-term timeline was a scam, and is going nowhere because of that. He makes scams to draw people and capital in, because for him it's all about narratives and equity valuation.

And then he dug unproductive holes, suggested unproductive hyper-tubes, built meme flamethrowers, for what? It's a narrative, not a business. None of this is real productive shit to make peoples' lives better.

His latest "we need free speech" narrative was a scam too. He tapped into something real, which is what marketers do and why it kind of worked. Yes, we need free speech. Yes, Twitter had censorship issues. He saw that and jumped on it maliciously rather than productively.

But what did he replace it with? He replaced it with arbitrary journalist censorship about his private jet, arbitrary censorship of Substack, selective Twitter Files release, won't talk seriously about any of his China connections because Xi Jinping fucking owns him economically there like Jack Ma, has his balls firmly in his grasp, etc.

Elon's playing the narrative, the anti-woke meme of the day. He's a master meme-momentum-player. Don't fall for it.

For all these reasons, I was very happy when #[6] asked me to give a more elaborate version of the speech in Riga. Unfortunately nobody recorded it, there. So, I was very happy to give it again for Strike, thanks to the ghost of a lovely Rockstar (RIP <3).

Enjoy.

Bitcoin empowers the individual to change things through sheer force of will.

The citadel is you.

It’s a sphere of influence that grows outward from your will.

How far it grows outward is up to you.

Things will change as much or as little as you desire them to change.
