Hard to disagree, however ecash plus nostr allows anyone in the world to aquire no kyc sats and stack them up while their only bitcoin balance is below the minimum 100k sats that a self custody lightning channel needs to be to open. It let's users enter from a social layer and move down the chain.

Shitcoin market is good for Bitcoin it filters the weak developers and puts them elsewhere.

Think about it for a second: anything they are acusing Tornado/Samourai from, bitcoin does.

Money Laundering? MSB? Conspiracy to evade sanctions?

Be brave and go for the bigboy. Do like China and ban bitcoin. All what they are doing is just a fear game. A psysop.

the more options we have the better.

people should be aware of the risks and decide for themselves.

It’s the prosecution’s job to bat as hard as they can for their team. All sorts of crazy shit gets said in a courtroom - see CSW trial

That's an embarassing argument to be honest if you think it through. That would enable arbitrary interpretation of the law which makes the law completely meaningless.

Makes no sense. Users should be free to decide what happens with the outputs:

- Normal spend

-Payjoin

- Mercury Layer

- Coinswap

- Open LN channel

Nostr coordinated coinjoin already exists: joinstr.xyz

BTW electrum has a feature to open LN channel with the change so toxic change could be used to open LN channels when doing coinjoin

Don’t be an idiot.

But more corn.

How’s that

Obwohl the 8 has 8gb of ram I would get the pro with 12. Why? Using apps like simplex consume a lot of ram, simplex itself more than 1gb.

Your urge is only sanctified through graphene. Otherwise it is mere weakness, degeneracy, and capitulation.

Gm. I got a 7a as a smaller option to my 6 pro a while ago. If anything it's slower but the smaller form factor is nice. 6a to 8 will definitely have a performance boost. Probably noticable on heavier apps.

Get sats instead.

I'm using a Pixel 5 and driving a car from 2006 with 377k miles on it. The alternative is fewer sats, which is unacceptable to me.

Get it.

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Unless you want to fake pictures of yourself playing basketball or something.

GM Nostr ☕

90% Bitcoin users are KYC'd up to the eyeballs.

On chain privacy is severely kneecapped.

Mining is heavily centralized.

The ETFs are rug pull tech.

Self custodial LN is a ball ache.

We haven't won, not even close.

Have a great day 😜

Do you think whirlpool will reappear?

Think it’s a war on privacy in order to control and tax. They don’t care if you use it, so long as they know you used it and can tax it.

What they don’t realize is when everyone is using it, and it’s no longer in their control, they will lose this power eventually anyway.

Maintain as much privacy as you see fit through whatever means you deem necessary. But IMO, the real battle is adoption.

Tick tock, next block is not only keeping track of the height, it’s a countdown toward fiat irrelevance, the waning of the peak centralization and control era.
