both... I pay for stuff and accept payment with bitcoin (lightning), more than 50% of my bitcoin business sales.
it can be both. Higher layers = FIAT, lower layers = settlement and SOV.
This pretty much explains my state of mine. I used to be pretty moderate but over the past few years things have crossed a line. I just wont comply with or be part of a lot of things anymore.
only time will tell - but at least it's another perspective which explains his external actions.
I want to make sure that my notes are published to a few different jurisdictions - that way any retardation by specific governments won't cause me problems š
Zapping me risks my outgoing sats delta !!!
or realise god doesn't exist and take personal responsibility
you could look at some of your points and think that he is gaming the system and the people inside the system. By not opening appearing to threaten the USD .. he can bring people onside without getting them defensive. Is he not the "big money" trojan horse ?
Tell me about a cool #nostr app below which I don't know about and I'll #zap you based on how awesome it is š
Does anyone know a good site which shows #nostr relays by geo location and allows you to filter on location/uptime etc ? #asknostr
I'm trying to make sure I post notes to a good selection of relays to minimize the chances of censorship long term.
Nostr is a neutral protocol. Bitcoin (like it or not) comes with other inputs which you might like or not. two common issues I see (from other people) are:
1. fixed supply (ethically some people believe a adjustable supply is good for the world)
2. no privacy by default
With nostr, the protocol isn't opinionated, you can build whatever you want on it. With bitcoin, the protocol is VERY opinionated.
1. From today, be super cautious about what you release online
2. take 1 meaningful step every day/week/month to reduce exposure. Examples might be to a) move to a privacy focussed browser b) privacy focussed search engine c) change email providers to proton/tuta d) google yourself ... remove accounts on all unused platforms that you find bit by bit.
to connect with new people in your immediate area .....
parties
festivals
protests
theme parks
events
conferences.
There are tons of situations where I would like a low effort way of meeting new likeminded people.
Primal studio is telling me i have a minus sats delta. All is good in the world š
I'm using the primal built in wallet but I'd like to move to something I own and control - what's the best way ? LN node? NWC+Wallet ?
Getting started with Nostr.
