Man I love democracy when my special interest gets forced onto everyone else 💪 When it's the other way round then obviously it's terrible and we should let experts that I agree with run things 😏

What's the state of Nostr hardware account recovery devices?

I need to find a way to store the private key in an NFC/USB stick-like device with a self-contained biometric authentication to unlock the device and allow the person to log in with their account into another phone.

It would work somewhat like a Cold Card but without having to memorize/store the unlock pin. Each person can then keep 3+ devices in separate trusted locations to allow them to recover their Nostr private key if they lose the phone.

The use case is for the homeless population where memorizing passwords/words simply won't work and physical security is not good. But they do have a network of providers that can keep these keys safe for them. We just don't want to give access to the private keys to the hosts of the USB device.

Things are getting real very fast over here.

So if the USD isn't redeemable for anything by other countries, but the main leverage the US has is military protection ...

... then it must be in the US interest for there to be more wars and a need for the US military. No one's going to abandon the Dollar at the same time as needing Uncle Sam to protect them from Iran/China/Russia/NK.

And yet it's going to be so, so much more. Lightning will connect bitcoin to every other financial system on the planet replacing the old systems one by one anchoring bitcoin as humanities's most purest expression of truth that we've ever known.

Bitcoin isn't for everybody. Only the sexy people.

Can someone zap me 1 sat? I'm testing something.

Good morning! Tell me something positive that's happened to you lately.

this is going to be an absolute massive year for both nostr and bitcoin adoption - LFG 🫡

Primal is rocking it, fiat to sats to zap to soon come nostr marketplace hopefully and sats living 🔥

Yeah I just did a math and here in the US it seems like the cut off is ~15% 🤔 Gotta lower that numbers so that plebs could stack sats right from the client

Apple needs their 30%

Meh, still it’s none KYC 😏

The 30% isn’t the primal business model that’s just a greedy apple 💩

In any way I see it as a big thing for newcomers! Now they can buy a small amount of sats on their own in a few clicks and then once they figure out what’s up eventually they will try to find the other bitcoin exchanges with the lower fees.

It really is so much easier to pay your bill in sats. I look forward to the day that it’s the standard.

Sometimes I Zap both the original poster and the re-poster. Even when I already follow both.

Bc, sometimes, I would not have seen the original post if it wasnt for the repost.
