Thank you! I appreciate it!
Oof alright I’ll give it a shot (I’m still learning how Nostr works 😅)
The app would use Nostr events with short expiration times to implement ephemeral messaging. The client app with a camera interface would allow users to capture photos and videos. Media content would be encrypted and stored off-chain, with decryption keys shared via Nostr events
Oh I love stand up! I’ve seen some of his clips on YouTube - I’ll check out more of his stuff!
I’d be hyped to check out his series
I would recommend a hardware wallet over any mobile or desktop/laptop wallet (even over multi-signature mobile, such as nostr:npub1jg552aulj07skd6e7y2hu0vl5g8nl5jvfw8jhn6jpjk0vjd0waksvl6n8n Green).
Mobile is fine for amounts you plan to spend or want handy for impulse expenditures. But hardware is best for long term storage (for now).
Eventually I'll be happier with multi-sig custody of my retirement funds. But that would be secured by both hardware signing devices AND multi-sig.
I still need to see more mature tooling around that (software and hardware).
But, more importantly, I need to see some better legal and institutional clarity around it. If I arrange with a lawyer to be a signatory on my cold storage ₿, how does that actually work?
All of that said, my advice for Bitcoin hardware boils down to just two options: Blockstream Jade is my first choice. The Coldcard Mk4 or Q would be another option.
I have pairs of Trezors and Ledgers. They work well enough. But they've have issues (in particular customer data breach and exposure issues) and their efforts to support shitcoins weakens their core product focus and execution.
For Jade, in particular, I'm happy with its support for BIP85 (derive seed mnemonics from your existing seed). Thus the seeds for mobile, laptop, etc. can all be derived from one device (and all handled with on backup).
This is awesome - thank you so much! I’ll be checking out the block stream jade and cold card Mk4
Ah thank you so much - I appreciate it! I’m hoping 🤞
Is anyone using #Bitkey ?
I’m using on phone (iPhone) wallets and was wanted to get more into cold storage but stuff like Ledger concern me

Thanks for this Mike! Fun rabbit hole to follow
Yikes I was really going through it huh. Happy to report I came out the other side significantly happier and more confident nostr:note1xvxhplg3g4r25x8rhnxch2nrmamkj8dj7c33rw2auvmut5yygnjsnevxf6
That’s hype! And congrats on the gig - that’s exciting!
I’d love to hear what workflow you are starting to port in. But I would absolutely choose daylight (even at its v1 stage) over any other tablet/ereader on the market
Love that keyboard and y’all’s stylus! I’m trying to figure out what my use case would be and would then love to treat myself to daylight!
I’m stoked yall are doing something new in the computer space - mad refreshing
Actually - I have used Nostr before (over 1yr ago) and i can’t remember what changed (likely got caught up with school)
Regardless, it feels so new and fresh to me
Hey everyone!
A quick breakdown of who I am:
- recent law school grad (waiting for bar results
- been following and holding btc for a while
- tech-head(?)
I got exhausted with X and others and was pretty demoralized about how social media is and I’m really excited to be on Nostr (via Damus); beyond excited to learn more about Nostr
I also love comedies and whodunnits so if anyone has recs - I feel like I’ve exhausted all the options
#introductions
Honestly I’ve never been more down than I am now. Everyone who’s life i enter, i make their lives hell.
I’m a selfish prick. I have no concept of reality. I have no confidence. I people please.
I’m losing my friends. I’m worrying my family.
I just want to make things right for everyone and then just disconnect from everyone and go on my own. No more worrying my parents, my brother, my friends.
I hope in 1 years time I can just fix everything and then disappear. I hate being alone and I already feel it now. If anything I’m a source of stress
