Congrats everybody we did it. We killed bitcoin X 😂

okay big question here should I watch Troll so I can watch Troll 2? (Not 90s Troll 2 that’s already an all time fave).

Amber is the only one I'm not unhappy with

It's happening, I'm adding promenade signing to flotilla just so people can paste their nsec. Signers are just not there yet.

It also has an Android version, but on Android I’m personally more used to using Amber.

Do you know what's better than buying Bitcoin?

Buying Bitcoin into your own Wallet.

If you use Amber already, then I highly recommend pairing it with Keychat for all Nostr web apps. Keychat uses NIP-07 like a browser extension would, but when paired with Amber it uses NIP-55 to reach out to Amber to get the signature. Both NIP-07 and NIP-55 are very reliable, so I have never experienced an issue with signing in Keychat.

Meanwhile, NIP-46 is very spotty, and it is hard to determine why. It seems like it works ok if you can initially get logged in using it. The problem is that it can take several tries before you can successfully log in.

Apps that present you with a QR code to scan a connection string seem to work better than ones where you have to manually paste in the bunker string from your signer app, but that means you are using that client dev's preferred relay for passing messages back and forth between the client and the signer, rather than the relay you prefer to use.

It's almost as if the client only looks for the signed connection request for a very short time, and if it doesn't see it on the relay in time then login fails and you have to try again. Highly annoying.

Finishing up another long-form Nostr article. I’ve been using nostr:npub1yzvxlwp7wawed5vgefwfmugvumtp8c8t0etk3g8sky4n0ndvyxesnxrf8q but am looking for other places to use. I’ll take all suggestions y’all have been using…. #asknostr

Gotcha. I use a browser extension for signing into web apps. NIP-07 signing is still more reliable than NIP-46.

We wanted to branch out to other industries than just bitcoin

My conversation with ChatGPT, NOSTR vs BlueSky:

Me: Think Blue Sky will beat Nostr?

GPT: Nope.

Me: Why’s that?

GPT: Blue Sky’s still tied to centralized servers and corporate control. Nostr? Fully decentralized — no gatekeepers, no censorship, total user ownership.

Me: But some say Blue Sky looks more polished.

GPT: Polished or not, it’s still a cage. Blue Sky controls the narrative with “moderation” disguised as safety. Nostr breaks those chains — users have real power, no compromises.

Me: What makes Nostr so unstoppable then?

GPT: Nostr’s architecture is lightning-fast, open-source, and censorship-proof. Plus, it’s integrated with Bitcoin zaps — direct, permissionless value flows right between users. That’s power Blue Sky can’t touch.

Me: So, it’s freedom versus control?

GPT: Exactly. Blue Sky is a corporate playground with limits. Nostr is a digital wild west — messy, raw, and unstoppable.

Me: Which one will last?

GPT: The one that can’t be controlled. Nostr wins every time.

Me: So what now?

GPT: Start building on Nostr. Hold your ground. Real freedom — and real value — don’t wait.

„The phrase "We will make all the Bitcoins in America" is exactly the worst possible thing you could want to hear given everything I've talked about in this post and not only is it not being rejected by Bitcoiners, it is being celebrated as a good thing.“ nostr:note17f0gqk93mevr6qz4kcu9wdl9pvnkeehdxpf4224fxs9dzt42vfzq9xt0f2
