I guess they don't realize that we've heard these arguments for a decade. We all know the whole world doesn't accept bitcoin as payment, and we don't care.
Dude wrote some great Bitcoin pieces, it's a shame he went the other way. His posts are just cringe lately.
In light of the recent hack of LastPass, I think it's a good time to bring up password "peppering".
For critical passwords that you store on password managers, consider adding (or subtracting) characters to the password that only you know, and is not kept on the password manager itself.
For instance, say Bitwarden spits out a password for you like 123456. That's what you would store in Bitwarden, but you would add you "pepper" to the end of it (or middle, or beginning) when you signup for a service. So for example you may enter "123456abc", with "abc" being your pepper.
If your passwords were compromised, they wouldn't have your complete password.

🙏 He has a few good pieces like this. It sounds like he's reading a lot of Zolton Poszar lately. I don't love how certain he is though. So many things to consider with geopolitics.

The client list on here is pretty well maintained.
And don't forget to keep your KYC and non-KYC stashes in separate wallets. Trying to manage the UTXO's within the same wallet would be pretty tough to do properly.

Thanks to Nostr, using Bitcoin is becoming normalized for me. I find myself spending sats for regular everyday things a lot more lately with the help of services like Bitrefill.
Now I'm addicted to stacking sats and to spending sats!🤙
Hmm, it depends on which client your using and how it displays it, but it looks like this on Amethyst

Vanadium is security focused, but this is still a good point to consider.
FWIW, I just use Vanadium.
Amethyst on Android let's you have multiple custom amounts. When you hit the zap button, your list will pop up to choose from.
Bromite is decent choice for the more privacy-minded.
