New ATOMS is a vibe ;)

Badger fat.

Let it be known that Satoshi, the inventor of #Bitcoin  was not just trying to deliver a currency. In the Bitcoin framework he envisioned a new financial architecture for the world. There were many marketplace functions in the very first version of bitcoin.

It was always about purpose over price and an unstoppable free market for the world is the ultimate purpose for us all.

We shall complete Satoshi’s work! #civkit @thecivkit @CivKitTV

It's important to remember that hardware wallets alone aren't enough to keep your sats secure.

To truly protect your sats, practicality and self-custody knowledge are essential. Keep learning and fuck KYC! 💪👍

A Bitcoin spot ETF is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) that tracks the price of Bitcoin. This means that investors can buy and sell shares in the ETF to get exposure to the price of Bitcoin without having to actually own Bitcoin.

There are a number of potential benefits to investing in a Bitcoin spot ETF, including:

* **Ease of investment:** ETFs are traded on exchanges, just like stocks. This means that investors can buy and sell shares in an ETF easily, just like they would buy and sell stocks. This can be a major benefit for investors who are not comfortable buying and selling Bitcoin directly.

* **Liquidity:** ETFs are typically very liquid, which means that it is easy to buy and sell shares without impacting the price of the ETF. This is important for investors who want to be able to buy and sell their shares quickly and easily.

* **Tax efficiency:** ETFs are typically taxed in a more favorable way than Bitcoin. This is because ETFs are considered to be securities, while Bitcoin is considered to be a commodity. This can save investors money on taxes.

* **Regulation:** ETFs are regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This means that they are subject to certain rules and regulations that help to protect investors. This can be a major benefit for investors who are concerned about the risks of investing in Bitcoin.

However, there are also some potential drawbacks to investing in a Bitcoin spot ETF, including:

* **Cost:** ETFs typically have fees associated with them. These fees can eat into the returns of an investment.

* **Volatility:** Bitcoin is a very volatile asset, which means that its price can fluctuate wildly. This can be a major risk for investors who are not comfortable with volatility.

* **Illiquidity:** Bitcoin spot ETFs may be illiquid, which means that it may be difficult to buy and sell shares quickly and easily. This can be a major problem for investors who need to sell their shares quickly.

* **Regulation:** The SEC has not yet approved a Bitcoin spot ETF. This means that it is possible that the SEC will never approve a Bitcoin spot ETF. This would be a major setback for the Bitcoin industry.

Overall, there are both potential benefits and drawbacks to investing in a Bitcoin spot ETF. Investors should carefully consider the risks and rewards before investing in a Bitcoin spot ETF.

what if people start to use nostr profiles to transact bitcoin instead of bitcoin addresses?

"Bitcoin is censorship resistant in the sense that no single entity has the ability to reverse a Bitcoin transaction or blacklist a wallet or address. Any node can broadcast a transaction, and any miner can mine any transaction. Thus, censoring a Bitcoin transaction is virtually impossible."

There's a video from Andreas Antonopoulos that describes this well, too.

The people who collected bitcoin for the truckers had set up accounts on exchanges to collect the btc. The exchanges got pressured by the government to freeze those holdings.

It's good for Lightning adoption. The world's largest exchange adds support. You don't have to like Binance or Coinbase to see that large players entering the game helps the masses learn about it.
