I just watched last Tuesday's episode of Tuttle Twins (why on Earth are they not on Nostr yet?!?), and saw this clip of next month's episode! 🤩🧡

Well done, nostr:npub1rxysxnjkhrmqd3ey73dp9n5y5yvyzcs64acc9g0k2epcpwwyya4spvhnp8! 👏 This episode is going to be amazing! 🥳

As many of you know, I'm working on the Nostr edition of "21 Questions", which is a follow-up to the Bitcoin edition that I published earlier this year, and which you can purchase here: https://a.co/d/0mcMtUC

In the Nostr edition, question 5 is: "What are the most popular Nostr apps, and how do they compare?"

In the comments below, list ALL the Nostr apps/clients you regularly use, and what they're mainly used for. The Nostr ecosystem is YUGE and varies widely; it seems there's always something new to discover.

I'll zap the lists that I find to be the most helpful! ⚡

Yes! As a homeschooling dad myself, that one definitely crossed my mind!

This is why these were the first 2 subjects I decided to focus on for the first 2 editions of "21 Questions."

I know it's way too early to think about this very much, but after the Beginners Guide to Nostr is done, what should the next 21 Questions book focus on? "A Beginners Guide to _"?

I thought that was the point. It mocks an awful movie and replaces it with something good.

I normally call it the "Halving".

But I call it the "Halvening" when I'm feeling silly and want to make a bit of tongue-in-cheek humor.

And I call it the "Hal-Finning" when I want to honor the legend. 😌

Want more Bitcoiners to take the purple pill?

Check out this new initiative on nostr:npub1kmwdmhuxvafg05dyap3qmy42jpwztrv9p0uvey3a8803ahlwtmnsnhxqk9. If enough of us donate just $9, it will be enough to add a Nostr booth to future Bitcoin conferences, and bring a new wave of Bitcoiners to the freedom and censorship resistance inherent to Nostr! 💜

There are always tradeoffs, and the alternative requires time, people, and money that El Salvador simply does not have.

They don't have the luxury to enforce due process. When your house is on fire, you don't form a committee to discuss, debate, and vote on which exits your children should take; you grab your kids, throw them on your shoulders, and get out through the closest door or window available.

El Salvador has been metaphorically on fire for a long time, and Bukele was the first president to finally treat it as the emergency it is. Yes, corrupt political leaders often create more "emergencies" in order to keep themselves in power, and if that happens with Bukele then we can talk about that at that time. But crying wolf when he is actually benefitting his people more than any other political leader on the planet is very unhelpful.

Ahoy, mateys! Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day! Arrr!

I was asked about my hat this morning. The guy thought it was pretty funny, but he asked, "Bitcoin's kinda irrelevant now, right? Like, it doesn't really matter, right?"

I was in a hurry, so I didn't get the chance to really tell him everything I wanted to say. But what cane to my mind was that while only 1 private bank can print more dollars, and anyone can "print" more cryptocurrencies, no one can print more bitcoin; it's the only money that you can really control yourself. So as long as that's still a desirable trait, Bitcoin is still relevant.

He didn't have anything to say to that, and I don't know if it made any sense to him, but I hope it'll get him to start thinking. Unfortunately, this is pretty typical for the Chattanooga area, but little by little, we can turn that around. 🧡
