I like to think @`Blockstream` has just put some seven year old in charge of zapping.

You don't see Lightning Labs on Nostr, zapping plebs

Rarely does Spotify actually recommend a band that I end up liking. MS MR is the rare exception. Almost every song is incredible, and the darkness of the lyrics fits our present moment well.

I will never understand this level of degeneracy.

If this was the old Kai Tak airport it would far less weird 😉

Allen is dead on here. Anyone who listened to Saylor’s WBD interview, it’s abundantly clear his true position is “ossify now”. He speaks out of both sides of his mouth, and tries to cloak his perspective in ever more inane metaphors, but he is clearly hostile to ever changing bitcoin.

And coming from a man who has ostensibly been running a software company for decades, it reveals a staggering ignorance about how software actually works.

Kia ora! Welcome to Nostr 🧡

Coracle is the best desktop Nostr client. It's not even close.

Announcing: Harbor, an ecash desktop wallet for better bitcoin privacy.

https://blog.mutinywallet.com/harbor/

Privacy for the common person is a value worth fighting for. When we see a lack of freedom tools, we must build them into existence. They don't appear on their own.

Much has been said about privacy at the Bitcoin protocol level. For now, we build it on higher layers where we can be more nimble.

Ecash is a tool available today that combines with Bitcoin to bring new levels of common privacy. Cashu and Fedimint are two existing implementations we're interested in.

Harbor Privacy: All communication runs over Tor. Mutiny is not in the middle of any connections or transactions. Funds in the wallet get a Privacy Score to show how the mints provide privacy over time. More to come on this in the future.

Harbor Multi-mint: Instead of relying on a single mint with your funds, spread the risk over dozens or more. Harbor manages this for you, showing you a single balance while connecting with mints for you. A mint can go offline with minimal impact on you.

Harbor Automation: Running as a desktop app unlocks ability to do long running processes in the background. Move money in and out of mints on your preferred schedule to maximize your desired level of privacy. Harbor makes suggestions, but you are in control.

Move money in and out of Harbor using Lightning or on-chain. We love Bitcoin, and we love privacy. We hope Harbor gives everyday people more privacy and peace of mind.

Are you still just three dudes doing all this?

Hyperbitcoinization will usher in a second golden age of art patronage.

Creatr is already helping to make that a reality (and they are a Bolt12 away from being an extraordinary experience).
