I'll pay in sats.
Damn the KYC/AML crap. And it likely won't change. (Perhaps with Chevron Deference falling it'll be challeneged?)
But the solution is a Bitcoin circular economy ending-around this garbage.
It's an interesting phenomenon: mempools are staying within a range of 150-250k unconfirmed transactions, and yet fees are compressing. Currently in nostr:npub18d4r6wanxkyrdfjdrjqzj2ukua5cas669ew2g5w7lf4a8te7awzqey6lt3 , there are 233k transactions and 4 sat/vB will get you in the next block. That means there's an immense amount of unconfirmed transactions below 4 sat/vB.
Transactions at 1-4 sats/vB are like layers of compressed rock under the surface, and continuing to compress further! Will be interesting to see if and when mempools ever clear again. If demand slows at some point, it's going to take awhile to chip away at all of those low-fee transactions!
Can someone explain #bitcoin frost to me in my native language? (I speak braindead language nativly)
Seconded.
Trying to be all nostr:npub1v5ufyh4lkeslgxxcclg8f0hzazhaw7rsrhvfquxzm2fk64c72hps45n0v5 but habits take me back to Spotify
Yeah, Fountain has never won me over.
What is your favorite podcast app?

Would love Antennapod, but I don't think they put their releases on github. 🫤
Sure, they have their place and regardless they get decent MPG.
It always seems like they're the most idiotic drivers on the road. Line of slow cars you're stuck behind? Probably a Prius. Failing to properly merge? Oh look! It's a Prius. There's a strong correlation between entitled and/or poor drivers and Prius owners!
The vast majority of Prius drivers are absolute idiots.
NPCs attracted to the 'green' propaganda.
One of my favorites. Quick read, too. Enjoy! ☕
About time to recognize and embrace the fact that the Lightning Network has failed as a fast micropayments system.
On top of that, nostr integration (zaps) is slow and convoluted and hosting your own LNURL server a pain in the ass. I tried a few weeks ago and gave up.
Where did I move to? Custodial providers. Mutiny (with Fedimint - which then broke), Alby and npub.cash.
Custodial is the only realistic solution for pocket change amount of sats, so why not embrace that and make the best UX possible? The UX nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft just demoed is basically unbeatable.
It's not only good for me, it's good for all the new people we will onboard to this magic world of bitcoin and nostr 💜
It's our responsibility to keep incessantly educating about self-custody for larger amounts.
💯
Let us know the results! Hopefully the entire meal doesn't taste like it was scooped out of a can!
Good morning.

But it's the whole political system. The media and simps revere the incompetent fools in office from the president on down. It's unhealthy and disgusting. These people should be barely tolerated, not revered.
It's open source and as far as I can tell fully usable, even in the US. Just gotta bypass the gatekeepers and install the apk.
A friend asked me last night if you can only install nostr:npub1235tem4hfn34edqh8hxfja9amty73998f0eagnuu4zm423s9e8ksdg0ht5 on a Pixel and tbh, I don't know! #asknostr
Pretty sure that's still the case, yes.
Still use Fold, despite the reduced rewards. They have some fun stuff coming, including billpay.
However, if would definitely expoore alternatives, if they exist!
How many times does the guy need to be wrong before people stop paying attention to him?
This could be huge. What will the process be for overturning regulations now - does each need to be specifically challenged, I wonder? Should be fun, regardless.
Definitely the right
Elon Musk is building a factory that produces the largest rocket ever built on what is essentially an assembly line. SpaceX will be able to produce dozens of this rocket per year.
Production on this scale for rockets is a completely new concept. Previous spacecraft were built by hand with each being unique. Standardizing will greatly enhance reliability while mass production will lower costs by orders of magnitude.
All of this to be able to hoist 100s of tons to orbit enabling space construction and transfer of resources to the moon and Mars. It's not just hot air. Well, actually it is.. 🚀
