How do you suppose I can lose my funds if I don't have them on an exchange?

Sometimes I criticize #bitcoin, because I criticize the things I love. Constructively criticizing is caring. Blindly shilling is the opposite.

History keeps doing this:

Gold standard -> gold banks -> bank reserve notes -> fiat

And we know fiat is slavery. So what about Bitcoin prevents it from following the same trajectory? Wallet Of Satoshi is already turning into a Bitcoin bank. Nothing prevents WoS from fractionally reserving, censoring, or any of the evil shit that eventually leads to fiat.

So what makes Bitcoin different? I don't want to see this:

Bitcoin standard -> Bitcoin banks -> bank reserve notes -> fiat

I would kill for a Bitcoin version. Craigslist died when FB marketplace showed up. EBay started requiring SSN and their payment processor bullshit to be a seller. I don't use KYC platforms, so in the last few years all of a sudden I've no way to sell my growing hoard of cool tech.

One project that has my eye is Bitejo by nostr:npub104d04f70swk7463r540ymqw83z85l00s6ljh7hgs2hedps0sp79qp5cgdw , but its still early days

I desperately need a Bitcoin Craigslist.

I can't stop zapping... I've gone through almost 10k zaps in a day, and I don't see that slowing down. #nostr is beautiful. Oh, also... so is nostr:npub1mutnyacc9uc4t5mmxvpprwsauj5p2qxq95v4a9j0jxl8wnkfvuyque23vg

Good ideas are a dime a dozen. People who can follow through with an idea are not. When considering an investment, don't get caught up investing in the idea. Remember you're really investing in the people behind the idea.

PSA: don't forget to follow a few hashtags and block users you don't want to see. A few minutes of curation (follows AND blocks) will give you a beautiful #nostr experience.

My marriage counselor told me I should put forward my emotions.

I spent all day trying to figure out how to enable emotional port forwarding on OpenWRT.

My wife and her new guy gonna have a great internet connection.
