check on their website, but let me ask in the group and come back to you

We witness every day how #Bitcoin changes the world.

USDT on Liquid is not used? Why?

Got diabetes: take metformin

Got high blood pressure: take an ace inhibitor

Got depression: take an SSRI

Got high cholesterol: take a statin

Got obesity: take Ozempic

Got inflammation: take Celebrex

Or just eat some damn steak.

you only see women in red dress

How can you tell they were psychopaths?

What about atomic swaps?

The UX of BSQ/BTC is unbeatable. No fraud, one click, no waiting for counterparty to pay, no risk of errors...

World class take.. operation choke point is definitely not over - that fiat money they think is worth something plus they want control..

Sometimes living in a 3rd world country has it’s benefits as it takes 10-15 years for the same rules to apply.

I feel sorry for people getting into BTC now in the USA and Europe - it’s genuinely so impractical and time consuming hence they mostly just give up and move on.

Fiat mine by day

BTC mine by night (zaps on NOSTR and literally mining with free energy and bandwidth)

#bitcoin

You should use P2P exchanges whenever you can but I'm afraid the "no bitcoin onramps, only fiat offramps" reality is increasingly true.

In the medium to longterm it won't matter that you operate with lower-value transactions because they keep moving the threshold lower to demand ever more burdensome kyc info for transactions.

Moreover, you will have to deal with sudden account freezes and transaction cancellations if you keep sending money to strangers. It's just a reality of this model, one that cannot be mitigated.

Since the financial surveillance system is increasingly consolidated into one big honeypot, you will not be able to escape with multiple bank account tactics.

One solution is to coinjoin funds or do atomic swaps but that does not erase kyc data. It is a suboptimal solution.

I see three real solutions that remain for freedom-minded people to acquire kyc-free sats:

- Mine bitcoin in a non-kyc way

- Exchange fiat and goods face to face

- Work for it

...and of course you should keep most of your funds in Self-Custody. Maybe some on LN(LSP model makes it easier) and pocket money in #ecash mints.

Realistically you will rarely do option 1 and 2. Working for sats is the best solution and it will bootstrap a freedom economy of Sovereign Individuals.

The best way to get this freedom economy going is in my mind obviously nostr. That's why I am building #satshoot and keep supporting this ecosystem any chance I get.

This is my thesis. What's yours?

Are you “Psychopath-Aware” ?

Do you think psychopaths are just serial killers in prison ? Or do you realise that many political leaders, CEOs and the heads of any large hierarchical organisation are psychopaths

?

Remember the ones who gave it all

This year, be bad.

Be a bad trader. Don’t chase the market. Stack bitcoin steadily.

Be a bad economist. Stop predicting world events. Focus on Bitcoin’s fundamentals.

Be a bad citizen. Don’t trust banks. Hold your wealth in self-custody.

Be a bad follower. Don’t follow the hype. Choose long-term freedom.

Be a bad investor. Forget quick gains. Real wealth is built by holding bitcoin.

Be a bad customer. Stop paying fees to third parties. Take control of your money.

Thinking outside the box is how revolutions start.

Is there no escrow or something similar on Bisq2? Müßig 🤔

Ah.. A shitcoin, eh.

Have fun running your full node on a raspi when you can't afford a single transaction.

Storage is cheap, bandwidth is improving. Block size limit was introduced to reduce spam at the time and not meant to be there forever. Dynamic blocks are an elegant solution.

Bitcoin will become custodial with lightning. Cuz... Who will actually run their own node. So is that decentralized?

Thinking about checking out #podcasts who might like to have me on as a guest.

Anyone have any recommendations?

Any podcasts out there who cater to people getting interested in #privacy or #security? Or maybe an #OpenSource podcast where I could tell the story of how #unstoppable this project has been?
