Only a Sith saves in fiat.

I guess the best practice for now, if you're going to be switching back and forth between clients and devices, is to have it stored in a secure location and just make sure you "log out" whenever you are done. Or at the very least if you're going to stay "logged in" to only be logged in on one device at a time.

That sound like a reasonable approach?

Would you recommend getting an actual Kindle or just keep using the Kindle app on a phone? What's the advantage of a Kindle device?

How possible/feasible/practical would it be to implement some kind of physical way of backing up access to your private key, such as a "Nostr cold wallet" or just implementing the use of physical security keys that already exist?

I know password managers are already an option, and maybe that's enough, but wouldn't that depend on how serious your account is? For a general shit posting account it's probably not more serious than using a password manager. But for those using Nostr for more serious purposes protecting their credentials a cold storage/access option could be feasible.

Current price of 262k sats? Just under $60.

At a BTC value of $100k? $262. $500k? $1,312

Or put another way, at $500k $60 would net you 12k sats.

262k sats now, or 12k sats later?

I cannot express in words how much I want to bite into that.

Ask him how much of a reader he is? If he doesn't mind sitting down with a book then direct him to, or just gift him, a copy of either Bitcoin Evangelism, Bitcoin: Hard Money You Can't Fuck With, or both a copy of The Bitcoin and The Fiat Standard.

Also, direct him to #[2] YT channel for a shit ton of easy to follow tutorials.

A Sunday contemplation...

Richard Dawkins has said that if a tornado flying through a junkyard and creating a Boeing 747 is improbable, then how much more improbable must it be for God to have created the universe?

I would say that if you are a reasonable and rational person not solely dependent on empirical evidence then to you a tornado flying through a junkyard and creating a Boeing 747 is not only improbable, it's impossible. Yet the Boeing 747 not only exists... it exists deliberately. The very nature of its existence is deliberate.

If the existence of a mere Boeing 747 is deliberate, then how much more deliberate might the existence of the universe and all life within it be? Does the brain of the creator of a Boeing 747 somehow exist less deliberately than the Boeing 747 it deliberately created?

Just as a "bitcoin" is the abstract proof of a miner's work, maybe "human beings" are the abstract proofs of God's work. A blockchain/universe, a wallet/earth, and a bitcoin/human being. Maybe we are God's bitwatts.

Know what's even guilty-er? Biscoff cookies with Biscoff cookie butter and Nutella spread on them. Served with a glass of ice cold milk.

Network effect is a relative thing. MySpace had a bigger network effect than Facebook until it didn't.

But is it really Nostr vs Twitter or is it more about Amethyst/Damus/Nostrgram/etc vs Twitter? Nostr's "just" the protocol, right? The user experience is in the clients on top.

Seems like the more direct competition for Nostr is Bluesky's AT protocol. Or am I wrong there?

Idk what this is about, but CSW is Craig Steven Wright, the antagonistic twerp who keeps saying that he's Satoshi Nakamoto.

Someone doesn't look happy with this newfangled tech talk...
