Balanced, as all things should be.

*yes, my shoe on head avatar was uploaded with a NIP-96 server through my client.

NIP-96 is cool.

That’s it, that’s the post. #nostr #dev

> be your own bank (custodial)

If it is custodial, then you are not being your own bank, that is entirely contradictory, no?

As I see so far (and I’ve read cashu.space just now, as you suggested), it seems to just be an open-source improvement over the traditional banking system, and if that’s the aim… it could genuinely be useful for that exact purpose: replacing the traditional transactional system with a privacy-oriented, modular system.

But I feel the people being *onboarded* with this system are going to be misled in to a false sense of security; what if the mint provider exits? What then will their opinion of Bitcoin be?

Sorry for the long wall, rather verbose, I'm just genuinely curious — as a user of Bitcoin since <2013, on what Cashu/eCash is intended for… I hate the idea of potentially onboarding someone in a way that LOOKS good, but practically, may harm them in the long run.

Yep… I recently tried Claude for the first time, it absolutely surprised me how inquisitive it feels, 3.5 Sonnet is incredibly good at “reasoning” and not getting stuck in ridiculous logic loops like OpenAI models seem to. 🤔

Favourite debugging and reverse engineering model haha.

Allllll da platforms… 💚

Linux, Windows, MacOS, Android!

iOS will be sideloadable (AltStore) until we can get it signed.

gm #Nostr

Massive progress done on the branding and design of my upcoming Nostr client.

I’m so excited that sleeping is difficult. 😂

No. To be honest, if anything has to be even slightly personal… I prefer doing it solely myself.

And I am an AVID, daily AI user, but some things just need my personal touch. 🤝💚

*not written with ChatGPT 🤣

Makes me laugh that the company is “Satoshi Labs”.

Same as “Wallet of Satoshi”… a custodial Lightning wallet LOL.

Good names, awful teams that drag Satoshi's name through shit he'd have never endorsed.

gm frens, many ideas to be tested in code today… excited! Tests and upgrades are going well on my upcoming #Nostr client.

Plus, I chose violence this morning. 👀 🚫🥜

Can someone ELI5 what #Cashu is to me?

Is it just noise? (I.e; custodial trash)

Does it empower self-sovereignty?

What’s the catch? #asknostr

I’m curious. But my knowledge is somewhat limited to the pre-Lightning era Bitcoin.

I don’t miss the ads on X, very annoying, after using only Nostr(damus) for a month. 🤟

Compiled and installed my first iOS app today, fun stuff, took many days of attempts, much learned. #Dev #Nostr #Damus
