Thanks for the zap.! I’m on iOS almost 100% (I have a windows laptop I may end up using as well) Using Primal mostly - but - have logged into several others including Damus, Nostur, and just recently Yakihonne, and 0xchat just to see the what they’re like.

Greetings. I’m new to NOSTR but found you through a common education portal of sorts (My First Bitcoin). I have wondered something similar as well. I have searched docs, videos, and other tutorials and not found an answer. Along with your issue I find that many people I “follow” immediately or shortly switch back to unfollow. Very confusing. I don’t want to keep following people if they are rejecting my follow unbeknownst to me. I’ve followed maybe 40 or so popular accounts only to find that I am not following them.

So this is a mini bomb or mini server? 😄

They are not gone - sats from your side of closed channels will fall back to the onchain wallet, backed up by your 12 words. However, your channels are still probably opened, so you either need to wait some time till counterparty closes it, or ask them to close earlier.

I wonder if they’re teaching kids about bitcoin in schools?

Doubtful 😂

Shame. Could teach them something that’s actually useful and will make an impact on their lives.

Saylor pressed all my buttons in this interview.

I don't share his view of #bitcoin at all. I would go as far as to say he is wrong in how he characterizes bitcoin as digital capital.

I would not compare bitcoin to other assets we currently have like real estate, etfs, equities, and bonds. The only person who would compare these when deciding to make a purchase are folks who are purely looking at the numbers go up side of bitcoin.

Consider this thought experiment, lets all of us sell everything we own to buy bitcoin. How will that even work? Who will buy our things? where do we live? rent? rent from who, they also want to sell to buy bitcoin? Are all the operating companies now worth zero? of course not.

Just like how we humans don't have all our value stored in Gold and prefer to have it in operating ventures, the same will happen to bitcoin. it will end up being a small portion of your wealth portfolio.

ITS CALLED THE BITCOIN STANDARD, NOT THE BITCOIN ASSET.
