Subnostr

Broken windows to stimulate the economy. A bit extreme when you think about it.

There isn't much better than the joy of having some sats sent to you by random people using Nostr. #bitcoin

Lighting up the fireplace tonight. It's not fancy, actually looks very "fiat 'ish". But it's cozy.

On my list of things to improve over the next 2-3 years.

I want an impressionable fire place. Some Count Dracula type isht.

#RandomThoughts

An inglenook is required. With a fire connected to the central heating

Can you pay for nostr:npub1ve8qwrlztemdmnh62jffcr0y9m9dpqgqjdg8ufx7gc3qw5wdk74qyv9ka6 with bitcoin? Doesn't look like it to me.

Watching my daughter in swimming lessons. Amazing how quick kids pick things up.

Sometimes I just look at https://mempool.space/ in awe.

#Bitcoin doesn't care. It just keeps working.

Tick tock, next block.

The difficulty adjustment blows my mind.

Can't sleep so I've just finished reading Farmer Giles of Ham by #Tolkien.

An interesting short story.

Remember when you could send a #bitcoin transaction for basically free at 1 sat/vB 😂

Halcyon days

This appeals to me greatly as an office worker. nostr:npub1lt8nn8aaa6qa63wjwj8gz2djf5nlhg3zfd0v6l45v8zhvuyh0p3s5zzt5y https://ungovernablemisfits.com/land-and-bitcoin-a-symbiosis-in-sovereignty-part-3/#:~:text=A%20diverse%20land%20strategy%20requires%20more%20varied%20job%20tasks%20and%20breadth%20of%20function%20than%20has%20become%20typical%20%E2%80%93%20this%20makes%20for%20a%20more%20enjoyable%20and%20interesting%20working%20day.

Just seen some amazing #fireworks in the #Rhondda. No expense was spared from the good people. Despite the rain, it was a nice spectacle.

Heard talk of #BlackRock co-opting #bitcoin...I think it's more likely that #bitcoin is co-opting #BlackRock without them even knowing.

Do the British trust their government more than Americans trust their government? I think they probably do and that might explain why the British don't have as much interest in #bitcoin as Americans.

Be interested to know what others think because until we can figure out why we aren't as interested then we won't be able to get more people on board.

Jameson Lopp

Remember, remember, the fifth of November.

We are told to remember the idea, not the man, because a man can fail. He can be caught. He can be killed and forgotten. But four hundred years later an idea can continue changing the world.

I was just reading the poem to my daughter. Having to explain overthrow to her 😄

Just been for a nice walk in the cold autumn sun. Can't beat a bit of nature. When you've got a desk job it's so important to get away from it for a bit. #nature #walks

The Ben Gunn

Getting some overwhelming feedback on this - thank you brothers. Maybe its kindness, maybe its a good effort - at this point I'm happy with either! x

I promise there is much more to come. No AI. Gunn-only proof of work writing. Fuck the SEO score.

All killer - no filler.

Good article Ben. I regularly think about buying a few acres of forest but haven't found anything suitable so far.

It's hard to say. I frequently give them out and put up my own so I don't have accurate numbers on total sent.

Some sticker designs are retired and others aren't so that affects it too.

This is the first month that GOT INFLATION? has not been in first place, so that one is generally most effective. But they all get scans!

I guess inflation was transitory 😉

Get involved this month: https://bitcoin.rocks/get-involved

Last month, 909 people scanned the #bitcoin stickers you put in public!

Each sticker links to an educational page about Bitcoin.

Here's the breakdown for October:

STUDY BITCOIN - 215

GOT INFLATION? - 183

BDHI BLACK - 154

FIX THE MONEY - 110

CURE V2 - 107

BDHI ORANGE - 84

WHAT IF? - 34

CURE V1 - 22

Thank you all for helping 909 people take their first steps down the Bitcoin rabbit hole!

Any statistics on which is most effective at engagement?

I guess how many scans as a percentage of how many of each sticker you sent.

Replying to

Yes, very much so. Makes sense of course as you get older. But think way back as a teen or even a young adult, for me wasnt always so obvious. The benefit of wisdom.

Yeah. When you are young you tend to do the opposite. I'll have to try and explain this to my children. Which they will just ignore until they then learn it themselves.

A thing I've observed much later in life then most. But I'e been fortunate to often be around people that have that effect on me. While coincidental in my case, not a bad idea to be intentionally surrounded by people like that in life.

I guess this is the idea of surrounding yourself with people who improve you and not negative people.

Replying to

Comparing yourself or achievements against that of others is setting yourself up for disappointment while robbing you of life's joys.

Instead, measure yourself today against yourself yesterday.

Small, incremental, improvements, daily and progress will land you in the place in life that is worth more then anything money can buy.

#RandomThought of the moment. I'm sure it's been written or spoken by someone long before me on this night.

And to all a good night 🥱😴🛌🏾💤
