TollGate has a beautiful website now thanks to nostr:nprofile1qqs9pq5cgjq08vncjxzq5gph2ynnj9yk0rhu9tycrj5v6qtdqgcyalgpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz9thwden5te0v4jx2m3wdehhxarj9ekxzmnyqyxhwumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmvwk2ewl!
The new modular nostr based architecture is also progressing rapidly thanks to nostr:nprofile1qqsthdwa5rs42euhnuz5xsrmmssr84hshwes7uj392vpeldj7z0zw3cppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7qg3waehxw309ahx7um5wgh8w6twv5hsef7u3d and nostr:nprofile1qqs2nprlh3rtdsgfwyg7mmsjxkjzr7msjj3achku5fjppu0qf4ae70gppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qydhwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytn0wfskuem9wp5kcmpwv3jhvtcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsftzpkd.
Stay tuned for a big release with an app that handles the interaction with TollGates on your behalf and a modular nostr based architecture that runs on your TollGate.
nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll is this something that would work a Start 9 server?
I’ve missed dumps of this magnitude and velocity. This is Bitcoin the way I remember it. It’s like medicine for my soul.
Thank you! Works like a charm. I really got a rush being able now run my own lightning node and receive zaps all in a self custodial manner.
I think Canada would splinter into many states. Starting with their larger provinces that are more aligned with America as it is; Alberta and Saskatchewan to start. Them cleaving off could force/encourage/incentivize British Columbia to join too.
If I use @albyhub with LND on my @start9 is that running my own lightning node? I had to open up a channel and have adequate liquidity. It all works. It feels like it’s the real deal. But are there any areas where I’m relying on some entity?
“The right to write on the ledger…”
The fact that we can simply buy bitcoin, privately and securely, holding in self-custody, is a massive honour and privilege. We are the lucky generation at the genesis of it all. Absolutely incredible. And to do so on the base layer… amazing.
The clip below got me thinking. 🤔
As #bitcoin continues is adoption phase and monetizes various forms of capital currently held in a variety of more physical and/or more fiat forms of capital preservation, the physical world could begin to look a little rough over a significant period of time. As the capital is sucked out of buildings, bonds, etc., the entropy of the universe will continue is never-ending onslaught.
Capital being preserved in the vacuum of cyberspace, relatively frictionless in regard to the forces of entropy will not be deployed into physical space until the right conditions present them selves.
Living in 🇨🇦 right now, after a 10-year Trudeau socialist/communist ideologically driven high student council running the show, intentionally missing dozens of mega-infrastructure projects around the abundance of resources we have, feels very heavy. The dark is dark. The taxes are suffocating. It’s driving all forms of capital out of the country. This won’t turn around quickly. Thank God for #bitcoin !
The healthcare system (fReE!) is rough. No signs of significant development on the horizon. Cost of living ⬆️, standard of living ⬇️. Heroes will be forded in this time.
I’m 42 years old with a young family. It still makes sense for me to stay here for now. But this life will be an adventure no doubt! I’m here for it, I’m ready. LFG!
Saylor’s waterfall analogy rings a 🛎️ here:
A part of me really wants to become the 51st state. Canada’s natural resources and overall territorial boundaries would be a massive contribution.
It’s interesting, the infamous book, The Sovereign Individual, the author describes how Canada could be one of the first states to dissolve.
The Canadian wokies would probably physically dissolve as well. A sight to be seen!
Ok, this non-technical man has successfully connected his lightning node to his #nostr with the ability to send and receive #zaps
Sovereignty level upgrade achieved!
Ok, I can now send zaps on Damus (Primal doesn’t connect as easily) with my Alby Hub on my Start 9, now can i receive zaps?? ⚡️ please 🙏🏼
I’ve been doing it for years. Game changer for a mouth breather like me.

Naive question here, I’m nervous about inputting my NSEC, how do I know it’s not being captured somehow?
Medicine will miss you! #bitcoin and #nostr will gain.
nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a Was there an era when sound money was more adhered to and productivity was accelerating such that prices actually went down? Can you point me to any resources of this era?? Is it in your book, “Broken Money”?
