They'll get paid with transaction fees only. I'm theory the demand for block space will outpace the block subsidy before that happens.
Made a not for a friend. If you want to see daylight hours change over time give it a follow.
GM and hello.

GM and farewell.
We didnt break 1000 miles this year but still did pretty good considering I had a kid.

I can add multiple locations. The source uses zip code. Feel free to DM me one of interest and I'll show times and interval.
Example.
I have a bot that sends that and other info to me over Signal. Should I have it post here?
I swapped LND for CLN a few years ago due to all the forced closures. Dont get them anymore.
I just realized I didnt give delete access. Hopefully that fixes it. I do like the app so far.
Do either of you use the sync function? It doesnt seem to consistently export/import. Desktop doesnt match mobile. Or lags severely.
This is "money services", they call bitcoin money when its convenient.
I dont blame you. I assume your forced closure was an LND node?
I dunno man, money can motivate people.
IIUC 10k per person all time is one limit but according to AI convos MSB licenses are pretty vague on purpose. So if it seems you're trying to make a profit that might be enough. Pretty lame.
What if you can proof you could sign before a particular block height?
Or use a computer you already have. I use copyparty to serve files from a laptop. Could expose over Tor or reverse proxy to cheap VPS.
Chatting with Deepseek about this.
### **Core Idea: Time-Locked Ownership Proofs**
1. **Concept**
- OpenTimestamps or similar proofs could cryptographically attest that you controlled a public key (and thus its UTXOs) **before a defined "quantum vulnerability cutoff date."**
- A future soft fork could *require* such proof + a new quantum-safe signature to spend:
*"Prove you owned this UTXO pre-quantum-threat to unlock it."*
2. **Technical Feasibility**
- **Possible at protocol level**: Bitcoin Script could enforce:
`[post-quantum sig] + [pre-quantum ownership proof]`
- **OpenTimestamps** (or a more robust alternative) could provide the proof.
### **Major Challenges**
1. **Consensus Coordination**
- Requires unanimous agreement to "freeze" vulnerable UTXOs until the new rules activate.
- *Reality*: Many users won’t timestamp proofs. What happens to their coins? Hard forks risk chain splits.
2. **Defining "Vulnerable" UTXOs**
- Only UTXOs with *exposed public keys* (reused addresses, post-spend states) are quantum-vulnerable.
- New addresses (public keys never spent from) remain safe. The system must distinguish these.
3. **Edge Cases**
- **Lost proofs**: Users with legitimate coins but no timestamped proof couldn’t spend.
- **Inheritance**: Transferring "frozen" coins pre-activation becomes impossible.
- **Miners/Gaslighting**: Miners might reject proofs to steal coins via quantum theft.
4. **Incentive Misalignment**
- Miners earn fees from *transactions*, not frozen coins. They may oppose rules that reduce liquidity.
### **Practical Alternatives Being Explored**
- **Automated Key Rotation**: Wallets auto-move funds to quantum-safe addresses pre-spend (e.g., via Taproot upgrades).
- **Output-Linking**: New UTXOs require explicit "input proofs" from old transactions (simpler than global timestamping).
- **Emergency Hard Fork**: Disable ECDSA entirely after a block height, forcing migration to post-quantum sigs (e.g., Lamport, SPHINCS+).
### **Your Action Plan Today**
1. **Timestamp proofs** for critical UTXOs via [OpenTimestamps](https://opentimestamps.org/) (low cost, high upside).
2. **Never reuse addresses** (public keys stay hidden until spend).
3. **Monitor** Bitcoin Improvement Proposals (BIPs) for quantum transitions like [BIP 340-342](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips) (Schnorr/Taproot foundations).
### **Bottom Line**
Your idea **could work** for *your coins* if:
- You timestamp proofs now,
- The network adopts your proposed rules, *and*
- No critical edge cases break it.
However, as a *universal solution*, it's less viable than protocol-level key rotation or output-linking. Time-limited soft forks (e.g., 90-day migration windows) are more likely if quantum threats materialize.
> ℹ️ **Status**: Theoretical – no formal BIP exists for this. Research is active in [post-quantum Bitcoin working groups](https://blockstream.com/).
Huh? You could only access the internet archive using the web too...
Do you have a Start9 or Umbrel or other plug and play node?
Can Open Timestamps help make QC vulnerable coins safer?
Question and idea:
QC doesnt put bitcoins historical blockchain at risk right? So if someone creates an OTS proof they own the coins now (I.e. OTS stamping the hash of a signed txn that is never broadcasted), could there be a pathway for spending vulnerable coins post QC if they can produce an OTS proof that existed prior to QC?
⚡️🇺🇸 NEW - Dave Chappelle says that if he ever says “I stand with Israel,” it’s a code for “they got him,” and people should stop listening to anything he says after that.
He says his greatest fear is being co-opted, as he doesn’t want the same thing to happen to him that happened to Charlie Kirk.

In the interest of saving time but not missing out, I've ventured into getting summaries of certain podcasts I can't justify actually listening to. I'm not a huge Tim Pool fan but I follow his shows and will listen if the title seems interesting (which is hard since they're all clickbait).
This episode title was one that got me. I put it in Scriberr to get the transcript, and then nostr:nprofile1qqs8msutuusu385l6wpdzf2473d2zlh750yfayfseqwryr6mfazqvmgpy4mhxue69uhkvet9v3ejumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtm0d4hxjh6lwejkuar4wfjhxqfswaehxw309a5hgcmg0ykkwmmvv3jkuun0vskkvatjvdhkuargdacxsct8w4ejuumrv9exzc3wd9kj7qfpwaehxw309ahx7um5wgkhyetvv9ujuar90pshx6r9v3nk2tnc09az7em0qzz's "Quick" model for a summary. I'll include the summary in my next post. If anyone has listened to it, I'd love to hear if you think the summary is good (I know it got Tate's name wrong).
### Overall Summary
Tape Brown and Connor kick off a chaotic episode of *Across the Pond* that dives deep into the fallout from the Tyler Robinson trial, the resurgence of Nick Fuentes, and the cultural fallout of Instagram Reels, all while riffing on the broader “culture war” that frames their commentary.
### Key Discussion Topics
The centerpiece of the show is the first in‑person appearance of Tyler Robinson in a Provo, Utah courtroom. The hosts note that prosecutors are seeking the death penalty for multiple counts—including aggravated murder and witness tampering—while the defense fights to limit media access, fearing a “spectacle.” Tape Brown emphasizes the trial’s historic weight, calling it possibly “the most high‑profile case of the 21st century,” and both hosts dissect Robinson’s demeanor, from his pink‑blue tie to his unsettling grin, interpreting these as signals of a calculated, not merely “crazy,” mindset.
Shifting gears, the duo critiques the renewed visibility of Nick Fuentes, especially after his high‑profile Tucker Carlson interview. They argue that Fuentes’ “aesthetic rebellion” has attracted disillusioned Zoomers, but warn that his lack of concrete policy makes him more spectacle than substance. The hosts juxtapose Fuentes with Piers Morgan, portraying Morgan as a “mouthpiece of the globalist regime” whose attempts to discredit Fuentes fall flat because the younger audience no longer buys the post‑war liberal narrative Morgan defends.
The conversation then drifts to Instagram Reels, which the hosts describe as a “wild‑west” of slurs, meme edits, and extremist clips. They contend that the platform’s algorithmic chaos fuels the echo chambers that amplify figures like Fuentes and fuels the “pack‑a‑punch” fantasies some listeners voice about real‑world gun legislation. Throughout, Tape Brown and Connor pepper the analysis with references to broader right‑wing media trends, from the “Mr. Beastification” of polemics to the “Netflixification” of political drama, suggesting that the current media ecosystem encourages ever‑more dramatic, less‑substantive storytelling.
### Host Banter & Highlights
From the opening, Tape Brown jokes about “ducking and diving” with a riot shield, a tongue‑in‑cheek nod to the chaotic production environment. Connor’s self‑deprecating quip about showing up without a “juggernaut suit” sets a playful tone that recurs as they riff on past “slur‑free” YouTube days and lament the loss of “innocent” gaming banter. Their banter often spirals into absurdity—imagining real‑life “pack‑a‑punch” weapons, comparing Hindu revival concepts to video‑game respawns, and riffing on the “dead‑man’s switch” metaphor for geopolitical instability.
The hosts also intersperse personal asides, such as Connor’s mock‑serious speculation about “dual‑wheeled FMGs” and Tape’s sarcastic lament over “the matrix coming to the office.” Repeated ad‑style shout‑outs (e.g., “bear‑skin hoodie,” “gift season”) are treated as meta‑jokes, underscoring the show’s self‑aware, chaotic vibe. Their chemistry shines when they riff on the “Netflixification” of right‑wing discourse, with Tape humorously dubbing the trend a “dangerous escalation of drama,” while Connor likens it to a “Mr. Beast‑style spectacle” that sacrifices depth for clicks.
### Conclusion
The episode blends a heavy‑weight legal breakdown with a satirical take on modern media frenzy, leaving listeners with a vivid portrait of a cultural battlefield where courtroom drama, internet memes, and ideological theatrics collide.

On Nostr,
1. You are connected to people in most timezones
2. It's always morning for someone
Therefore
1. The sun never sets on GM
2. You can say GM as a greeting or as a goodbye
3. GM is the new aloha

The sun never sets on GM haha
Nostr is the modern bitcoin faucet.
50 of them are annoying. Luckily they only come by a couple times a year.
Can't 18 innings count partly toward tomorrows game?
I wonder how many could comply with bitcoin today. Non kyc sats ftw.
Did they ever jail anyone for it?
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Your posts are signed by a specific key. If you start using another key how are you migrating? Recreating and signing with the new key? They'd have different timestamps.
Going on the street to "protest" is really dumb and useless. The best protest is just using Bitcoin as much as you can and boycott the govs and banks.
The definition of the word “protest” means a statement or action expressing disapproval of or objection to something.
Within the legal system, this can be in the way of a written declaration, typically by a notary public, that a bill has been presented and payment or acceptance refused.
The word Protest is derived from the Latin word “prōtestārī” meaning “to declare publicly” and the root word “testārī” meaning “to testify” ergo Pro-test means to “testify publicly”.
However as “the public” has now become a controlled jurisdiction, to “protest” is no longer a right, but a “privilege” that can be revoked at any time by those who control the “general public”, “society” or “community”.
Furthermore, the very action of protesting indicates an obligation to adhere to the very issue you are protesting against.
This is why so many protests and petitions are organised and funded by the very corporate organisations you are protesting against, such as “big oil” and governments.
In simple terms you are accepting the “corporate authority”, and by protesting it you are strengthening it.
Here is a very good explanation by Robert Menard about why people should NOT protest but do something else instead:

Tell that to the people in Nepal.
There used to be an android app. Storage battery and bandwidth seem to be concerns.
But now Zeus won't play nice haha
