Noncustodial is a bit of work, so Ill gladly take a bit of rugpull risk with a custodial wallet since were talking petty change for zaps and such

I dont need #bitcoin to moon, I just need it to keep pace with inflation/monetary debasement to preserve my purchasing power. Otherwise I have hot potato cash.

Just got back from Disneyworld including a resort and two parks. The amount of smartphone use they required was dystopian. The amazon echo in my room was dystopian. The "random" safety check while I was napping was dystopian (and purely coincidental with me unplugging the rooms echo, right?)
Meant to write:
Perhaps so, but I wouldnt be the only one confused then.

There is some truth to this no doubt. Libertarianism is pretty rad till you realize it champions a radically truncated form of freedom that has real world negative consequences. This becomes particularly acute when you have kids.
Who are we talking? I didnt know libertarians won meaningful state or federal elections.
Setting up channels on my nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll lightning node while network fees are low ~12-13 sat/vB (2,000 sats) #Lightning #Bitcoin #BTC
Cool. gl i tried same but channel management was too time consuming?

Some things get better when digitized/appified. That doesnt mean everything should be.
I just published From Spreads To Fees
This change, driven by your feedback, ensures a transparent and cheap way for you to buy #bitcoin and get more sats the more you stack.
At Strike, we aim to be one of the best places in the world to buy #bitcoin
I do a presentation for every product announcement we make now. You can watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5Bj_v-IUCU&t=7s&ab_channel=JackMallers

Historically, Strike has charged what is called a "spread" when buying and selling #Bitcoin
Over the years, it became very clear to us that you all did not like that.
You wanted more clarity and more transparency. We heard you loud and clear.
I even collected a lot of your feedback. I have it attached to this note.
Our solution? Listen to you all.
Introducing, our new tiered-fee pricing model!
Every month Strike will calculate your activity on our platform and give you a discounted fee the more you #Bitcoin with us.
Simple, transparent, upfront, and cheap pricing built by Bitcoiners for Bitcoiners ✊
How cheap? Let's dig into it.
To clear up any FUD or concerns, we collected data from other #Bitcoin companies all-in cost when buying #bitcoin to assure you we are what we claim. Very transparent, and very cheap.
Just want to take a second and say, I love all of these companies. This is in no way putting anyone down. We are all going to win. Also, it is very complicated (if not impossible) to build one visual, one website, one dashboard, etc. for competitive analysis because some companies offer incentives on DCA, Direct Deposit, and so on. It's not an apples-to-apples comparison. This is not the Bible.
However, what these visuals do show is that Strike is an incredible place to buy #bitcoin, especially if you’re doing more than a couple hundred bucks. We give you a lot of sats for your fiat and stair-step our way down in fees the more you Bitcoin with us in cumulative monthly volume which is super unique to Strike.
We care a lot about offering you the most sats we possibly can. It’s not easy.
This change will roll out over the next week starting tomorrow.
Some of you will get it tomorrow, and some of you will get it in the coming days. If you ever have any issues, please reach out to us on Twitter or via Support, we're here to help.
Thanks for being patient with us here, these things take a few days to fully roll out.
Lastly, thank you!
As I mentioned, Strike is a business, and we would be nothing without you, our customer. Thank you all for your continued support, we love building #Bitcoin tools around the world for you.
This is the first of three things we plan to launch this month in February. Next week we have a new region of the world, and after that, we have our brand new limits system. So, I'll talk to you soon.
Much love!
What about paying directly to a bitcoin address... is that going to incur a fee?
gm nostr and happy valentines day.
Love is a severely misused word these days. We would do well to contemplate *true* love and then show it to everyone. You might be surprised by what that entails.
Freedom to, not freedom from.

Running nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll. Its pretty rad tbh.
no denial here. Don't get me wrong, I share your observations to some extent. Its just that 'cringe', 'disgust' and 'hatred' are not terms of light-heartedness.

Having been convinced about the need for hard money and bitcoin's promise as the hard money of choice, I've moved on to exploring the technical side of bitcoin.
nostr:npub1qdcakl75gd7wv0nqmmwrz09ddm5tzl7xj8lq2gclng2qzd8up5yqjpzclt has been leveling me up big time. I don't understand half the stuff nostr:npub1az9xj85cmxv8e9j9y80lvqp97crsqdu2fpu3srwthd99qfu9qsgstam8y8 et al say, but hearing the opinions of the guys literally building the stuff I use has been invaluable. Highly recommend.
