I was pissed off NOSTR for a while but will do my part to push forward here now. Just because there is no alternative.
THERE IS NO ALTERNATIVE!!!
Looks like we need a new protocol!
Internet is broken.
Seems there is a need for a new protocol.
Welcome to the Protocol Daniel!
Have fun here.
Thank you guys for Green.
Just wonder what the future of Lightning will be in Green? The old version had a option for greenlight but it disappeared in the new one.
Will it be implemented in future? This would give us the killerapp for NOSTR.
Cool,
Didn't knew it is metal body. That is an advantage over the pre version which is plastic.
Announcement:
Today, we’re excited to announce the launch of Blockstream Asset Management (BAM), our new asset management division, alongside two institutional-grade Bitcoin funds designed to bring regulated, secure, and innovative financial products to investors.
Here’s what you need to know:
https://blockstream.com/press-releases/2025-01-23-blockstream-asset-management-launch-bitcoin-funds/
1️⃣ Blockstream Income Fund
A USD yield fund designed to generate stable, predictable returns. By lending against Bitcoin collateral with conservative loan-to-value (LTV) ratios, the fund targets high single-digit to low-teens yields.
📌 Focused on loans from $100k to $5M, this fund capitalizes on pricing inefficiencies in Bitcoin-backed lending markets while leveraging Blockstream’s network of Bitcoin-native businesses to ensure high-quality borrowers.
2️⃣ Blockstream Alpha Fund
An actively managed fund combining diverse strategies like derivatives trading, event-driven opportunities, and Lightning Network operations to deliver consistent, risk-adjusted outperformance.
📌 Tailored for institutional and sophisticated investors seeking enhanced returns within the Bitcoin ecosystem, this fund balances risk and reward while actively contributing to the broader Bitcoin economy.
💬 Why it matters:
“The launch of Blockstream Asset Management and our inaugural suite of funds represents Bitcoin’s evolution from a niche asset into a pillar of modern investment portfolios,” said Dr. Adam Back, CEO and co-founder of Blockstream.
Both funds are structured under the 506(c) exemption, ensuring the transparency, security, and performance that institutions and high-net-worth investors expect.
🔜 Looking ahead: Later this year, we’ll launch the Blockstream Yield Fund, offering Bitcoin holders consistent, low-risk returns.
This milestone marks a key step in our mission to integrate Bitcoin into mainstream finance, enhance adoption, and drive innovation within the ecosystem.

Quote of the Day:
I had a conversation with a friend recently.
And he stated the following:
"Imagine if you're learning and studying all the time and keep learning, how damn smart you are in your sixties! And imagine if you're going to school until 18 and then work and stop learning at all. Imagine how damn dumb you are than when you're sixty."
