careful man, my friend got a bad case of Lyme disease from a deer tick
effed him up a good long while :(
I’m trying to think through this now. I have one and also a trezor.
If I think with the “human cattle car” mindset (if i were to be taken no clothes no possessions, all personal and cloud storage gone, all scraps of paper gone, no access to physical locations of the past) could i still retrieve my bitcoin?
What I like about the trezor is that I know for sure I have my seed memorized well, funds safu.
With a seedsigner multisig, you have to scan in three pubkey QR codes to begin with. Then sign with either qr or seed entry. A lot to memorize.
I suppose i haven’t dug into seed signer single sig. But also i tried my trezor key on seedsigner and it apparently is in an incompatible seed format.

in the next two or three years you are going to be shown a tsunami of drama filled messages and events that all have one common underlying message: sell your bitcoin don’t buy bitcoin leave bitcoin
Exactly: custodial IS a problem — IF we are talking about life savings on base layers.
It’s not different from the lack of safety of hacking cash in your pocket walking through city. Not in the bank and carries risk but not meaningfully risky.
But if custodial means I can store reasonable amounts reasonably safely in a convenient wallet I don’t have to maintain a node for (currently moderately difficult and moderately risky due to technical ignorance and/or potential hardware or system issues), that is a worthy tradeoffs.
If a custodial solution starts censoring or rugs or is captured, everyone just stops using it. Mass exodus. There is no incentive to be a bad actor in the space and do the risks of centralized convenience wallets go down.
Happened before, and it cleared up to nothing.
Stuff like this will flare up, people will post their finite minting projects, but it will die down because what they are doing is exceptionally expensive.
Cannot last forever.
Trump as abhorrent but correct response to the worlds collective mental state:
Trump is not the nicest guy, but he put a check on evil. By this, Trump did good.
Trudeau is a Nice Guy but he is in bed with evil and does their bidding. Thus Trudeau does evil.
Putin is a strongman like Trump which is why the left has flags for Ukraine 🇺🇦 and allows no nuance into their consideration: Putin is a strongman-type (like Trump) they can hit and can kill. Can attack with more than just lawsuits and canceling.
Trump and Putin as strongmen are not pleasant characters on the face of things.
Ukrainians are being used as cannon fodder and thus their leadership is to be supported — if again you don’t look beneath the face of things.
Trudeau presents a pleasant face that conceal vicious gnashing and bloody teeth.
So while Trump and people like him are unpleasant, abhorrent even, they are an adequate and measured response to the apparent Niceness but actual insanity of people like Trudeau.
The left wishes to shrink the capable and an abhorrent strongman type is the only thing that cows them. Given no resistance and an equal place in dialogue, they run wild to the point of violent oppression.
Guys like Trump (unfortunately) are the kindest and least dangerous response.
Flood of EU citizens incoming as soon as they pass & start enforcing the new censorship rules they want
As infrequently as possible. And then only water at first then shampoo only if bad / greasy enough.
My hair has never been better, cooler, happier and (relatively) dandruff-free.
Agreed. Twatter is a good place for building immunity via taking on toxins head on. And maybe influencing and changing some minds…maybe. But it’s a rough and friction-filled place.
Also loaded with psyops! All designed to divert, distract, demoralize and denigrate you.
Here we have good vibes and constructive building.
Feel like I’m playing Stardew Valley
have you seen the new eu push to throttle anything they deem “hate speech”? (whose definition is utterly shiftable depending on what the want to place social pressure on to shift the overton window)
nostr use is going to explode

Governments can ban it.
US system is not supposed to work like that, but let’s see!
I suspect he’s doing it to shift the Overton window hard enough that #bitcoin looks conservative and boring by comparison. Responsible. Negotiations tactics. Remember he still owns btc and publicly admits to it.
I think he’s doing it to shift the Overton window far enough over that #bitcoin looks positively stodgy in comparison. Stable and conservative. A hugely good thing.
Can’t wait til this sewer rat liar is rotting in jail
