but also i very much don’t enjoy small talk and asking about work. but maybe that’s normal.

Some of you should really look into getting some hobbies. I don't think I could ever post about the same thing (bitcoin) over and over and over and over again. Doesn't it get old?? You don't have to do it, ya know. I get it, it's cool and all, but there's waaaaay more to life. Maybe start looking at living it.

It's definitely a turn off to normal people just wanting to check out #NOSTR, which is far more important in my opinion. Freedom of speech/information is more valuable than bitcoin. Waaaay more. It sucks that I have to warn people I'm trying to onboard that most of what they see will be about bitcoin on repeat. Anyways, maybe half of you are bots and npc's being paid by somebody else to shill all day. Who fucking knows. Anyways, rant over.

Question. Can anyone point me in the right direction (or explain very clearly… write it out in crayon, and pretend you’re talking to an 8 year old.) to a tutorial or document that explains how to make a detailed lighting invoice? Details: I would like to send an invoice for a specific item, while requiring that the customer enter a shipping address with the payment.

I’m trying to figure out how to sell vinyl records on nostr. I have tons of cool stuff that I don’t listen to.

Am I the only one who finds it ironic that a conference based on a protocol grown entirely from the ground up via grassroots hackers and dreamers, is focusing all of their attention on centralized players, hoping they do something to move the market? It’s pathetic. Bitcoin wouldn’t be where it is today if not for individuals hacking away, building new things. Why is there no official stream of the OPEN SOURCE stage? Frankly, it’s the only stage that matters IMO. This is where shit gets done and people build the things these other leeches attach themselves to. C’mon bitcoin magazine… 
Sorry, not sorry.

Looking for some help here.

I tried downloading BISQ on my MacBook. When I try opening the app it says

“Bisq is damaged and cannot be opened”

Has anyone else got this? Any ways around it? Is this Apple’s way of closing the Non KYC options?!

Thank you!

I need help coming up with simple ways to explain why Bitcoin, despite its "volatility", is the safest place to keep your savings.

Anyone have a good way to do this?

Can’t wait too see the rest of the #Bitcoin only speakers

Just went through my list of followers. If they didn’t have a wallet linked I sent them the following reminder;

Can’t Zap if you don’t have a wallet!

Can you do 100 push ups in 7 minutes?

Are there people out there who can read this?

Could've just memorised 12 words, dude... Tsk tsk

The IMF wrote up a list of their top 10 complaints about El Salvador. #Bitcoin Bonds are #1. 😎

I’m using the ministry of nodes, Ubuntu node box series to do this I finished the sparrow wallet video and the next one is mempool.

To be honest, I don’t even know what mempool does. But I would like to set up my node to run lnd. It would be cool to have a Lightning node too.

Pattinson's The Batman was a slow, non action, boring, hard to watch 3 hour drag and a highly overrated movie where Batman looked constipated throughout the whole film.

watching moscow time unfold in real time was hilarious. that dude also blocked a lot of us.

So lets say its the year 2123…

The world economy is on a bitcoin standard. This is the official word now, but anyone with a few sats in their wallet knows that we have been on a bitcoin standard for far longer than the official record would record.

You are fortunate enough to be the great granddaughter of an OG coiner who bought bitcoin when it was under a million dollars! Jack even zapped your great grandfather a few sats back when nostr was just getting its legs. Way back in the day.

You have just graduated college and are going to buy your first house. One hundred thousand sats is a lot for a house You have a healthy distrust of debt so financing will not be an option. You have saved like your father and mother taught you, but what is the point of working and saving if you are never able to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Besides, you may have another way.

Your great grand father was zapped sats by Jack! Fucking Jack! And you can trace that Jack Sat all the way across the blockchain to the Blixt wallet you created just to house the key to that particular sat. And people will pay a lot of bitcoin for a Jack Sat!

So you locate a collector on nostr who has agreed to pay you the one hundred thousand sats you need for your first house, for that one sat your great grandfather was zapped by Jack. Way back in the day.

This is what a Bitcoined world looks like to me.

What do you think are the most likely types of events to suddenly pump Nostr user numbers?

A few ideas:

- a COVID redo

- Chinese adoption

- Kanye comes here

- a popular cause that requires fund raising

There are probably better ones I can't think of.

Gm and PV you rare European Nostriches!

What drives the next wave of nostr adoption?

Yes. Any species capable of getting here could intelligently and covertly determine how to fix our broken governance.

I think Satoshi was an alien
