Well that was interesting, I guess a wire transfer to Shakepay flags your bank account but numerous etransfers of the same amount doesnt flag anything.
Had a 5 min chat with the manager at my bank to ensure I no the risks.
Tempted to tell him the risks of fiat but then i would definitely be debanked.
#fiat = permissions needed with my money
#bitcoin - no permissions needed with my money

i hope to see more of people from #Brazil on Nostr after the X fiasco.

For those of you who are still on Twitter, I had a long debate thread today with Parker Lewis about Nostr. I'm a big fan of Parker, so I figured I'd share it here for shared learning.
Here's the latest post. I'm not sure it'll be the last or not but it's the latest one as of this writing. You can scroll up to see the exchange from the start.

Linking to my own post in isolation is bad form and the thumbnail is awkward depending on what client you're using, so I'll also provide a pic of the start of the debate too, with two posts of his and one of mine.
I'd be open to any thoughts about this debate.

Thanks nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a I appreciate your take and think (even though it might be years away) Nostr is the future of free speech!

Hey,
I'd like to thank you for the recommendation. The Infinite Game was a great read and probably one of my new favs.
I work for a large corporation and I can definitely see they have been playing finite games as of late with there restructuring.
Anyhow, thanks again.
Fair enough!
Your relationship with your children and wife are the most important and spending as much time with your children is going matter the most to you in your later years and wont be something you regret!
I'm really starting to wonder how much politics matter.....
Does it really matter who gets elected in Nov?
Or
Is the world going to get to the same place in relatively the same time frame by possibly a slightly different path?
nostr:npub1s05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sq6eyhe articulates this much better then i ever could.
but basically for #bitcoin does anything really matter or is it going to happen regardless?

You bring up some good points, while I find some joy in the tit for tat method i have 2 issues with it.
- i want to be the better person and hold myself to a higher standard
- if i did the tit for tat method, we'd actually never get together with anyone likely. - i value my friends and once we are visiting all is good - getting to the visit is the painful frustrating part.
but
I guess what i'm thinking is this is more of a societal problem - where people don't value friendships like they use too probably due to many reasons like
- the system we live in is high time preference
- people work too much
- social media and netflix
while curating friends can help fix this to a degree maybe...... in my experience it seems rather hopeless as people rather relationships that are via text and superficial.
maybe because people are mentally drained from their stressful lives?
anyhow, i guess maybe what im wondering is - is this common where your at?
You bring up some good points and I agree with people quite possibly are lazy too.

What is one thing that frustrates you?
For me there is a vast number of things but one in particular I'd like the #Nostr input on.
Friends - In particular when friends agree to get together and then shortly before (1 hour to 1 day) they inform us it now won't work.
The excuses granted sometimes are believable but lots of times are obvious bullshit.
for context:
- i dont have a huge friends circle but lets say 80% of 15 friends over 10 years this is common with
- probably over 50% of the time with certain friends
- i live in a mid sized city in Canada
- there is no obvious things I can think of on my end to change (that said i'm sure i have flaws)
Your thoughts?

I just finished listening to Matthew Kratter's "A Beginners Guide to Bitcoin"
It was good, i especially liked the part about setting up your wallets. He hit the main points and even mentioned putting tape on your webcam as you write down your seed words.👍
