Hey nostr:npub1x5fvukq4fvhxfxqg7sg3r6e0t3q2z6rjhht5vsc0r7hmv685e49sr8yfmn I have plebian.market listings and shopstr marketplace. I haven't started a website yet. I'm working the btcpay server and shopify and will have that up soon too!
I'm probably just too dense but I tried plebian.market and I get a parked domain page (with a sleepy kitten on it). Then I tried shopstr and if I look for "adobe", I get no listings. Please let me know when there's another way to find your products.
We have just published a nice piece of writing which explains why are Czechs so fond of Bitcoin! Quite a quick read but full of interesting information.
Let me know what you think and if we should print it!
“From Defenestrations to Bitcoin - A 600 year fight for Freedom”

Is there a way to read the article without an email?
So here are another two sats of ideas then :
1. Looking at the normal businesses located in the regions where your audience is concentrated (normal biz like dentists, flower shops, accountants, retail shops, etc) that accept bitcoin and getting ads/sponsorships from them (after some due diligence on reviews, etc)?
2. Finding sponsors that are travel-related (esims, insurance, luggage, clothes, hotels, restaurants, medical tourism, birth tourism, passport-getting services, foreign dating agencies, sea sports, smaller cruises, relocation services, etc). Any of the biz in those categories that accept bitcoin.
3. Or starting one of those businesses with partners?
4. Doing a sponsored deep-dive in the bitcoin adoption process for a big company? Finding a partnered service (exchange or like bitwage, etc) that is about to onboard a new big client (business) and doing a deep-dive on how the process goes for them? From memory, I think Tim Ferriss used to have a show where he would do turn-arounds in businesses.
About getting an exchange as a sponsor : the way I feel about it, it's more a question of privacy. I prefer a service that offers privacy even if it also offers shitcoins on top of bitcoin, rather than a bitcoin-only exchange which doesn't offer privacy options.
For example, from memory, in Canada :
- bullbitcoin used to offer a no-kyc option going through Canada Post to buy cash vouchers to buy bitcoin. That's not possible anymore because Canada Post doesn't allow the private option anymore.
- However, BitcoinWell offers a private option with its ATMs to buy cash vouchers with only an email (any email), or without an email (but more fees).
- Instacoin ATMs also don't ask for phone numbers, name, etc.
Privacy is the most important. I don't know what options we still have in Europe with the MiCA rules (maybe Switzerland?), or in the US (maybe it's better to cross the border into the "51st State" and buy sats there).
Thank you for doing what you do!
Could you use your skills and interests in some other way while still being in bitcoin? Just brainstorming:
- arbitration services
- guided tours of bitcoin areas
- UX/UI consulting (for wallets, services, etc)
- one on one onboarding (like bitcoinmentor.io)
- bitcoin/nostr marketing services for precoiner businesses
- sales for decentralized mining rigs (like for example Upstream Data) and outreach (marketing) to precoiner gas/coal businesses
Leveraging your brand, your interest for travel, your interest for bitcoin and bitcoin adoption.
Just my two sats.
I'm looking into reverse osmosis and distillation. Either way, I want to put some good minerals and salts back in afterwards.
I heard that basil is very susceptible to chlorine from the water. Make sure to give it good water!
Yeah, I should have looked at the top post to see the context of your question before replying. I saw it out of context and didn't see it was a Gossip thread.
Thinking of you guys. I hope she comes home soon!
My wife was told to load up on calcium during a pregnancy to lower the risk of preeclampsia. Hopefully this information can be useful to someone out there.
That's the kind of welcome I expect at any bank I go to, even though I usually have less than 15$ in the account.
Wasn't bybit PlanB's favorite exchange?

Not your shit-keys, not your shit-coins.
I switched to KDE recently (very nice but tries to do too much) and also updated gossip to a newer egui. I thought the newer egui had a window positioning bug. After about 2 hours of testing and research I have discovered that KDE/Wayland doesn't allow windows to position themselves yet. 🤦

XFCE is the answer. It's like a Windows 98 interface but it actually works. Gets out of the way. Doesn't ask for much resources. Been on XFCE for well over a decade. I switched to it when Ubuntu tried to do that Unity thing. Never looked back. Friends and family, even newbies, are on XFCE. No problems. Stable.
I haven't commented on Gaza much in a while. I'll let Shahid Bolson comment on my behalf. I think I'm in 100% agreement/alignment with what he says in this video. I didn't know about this guy until today, but I'm very
impressed that his view is so perfectly aligned with mine, and so is his way of thinking.

That's a fascinating take that I hadn't really considered. But I wonder.
BRICS doesn't seem to actually be going anywhere. The "BRICS currency" never comes. Some of the countries who were considering membership even under Biden haven't joined yet. I remember reading that India's banks respect US sanctions on Russia.
Iran seems quite weakened by Syria falling and the recent beeper attacks in Lebanon, etc
The palestinians have had their land stolen gradually for decades. And now the whole place is destroyed.
I really wish people would stop trying to find Satoshi. It's dangerous for the people that are thought to be Satoshi, whether or not they are. Leave Satoshi alone!
Getting rid of the rats with "rat poison squared"
Stablecoins are a lifeline for the US treasury, so they'll do everything they can to encourage them going forward. I, for one, won't be using stablecoins. They may however turn out to be a gateway drug into bitcoin. Stablecoins won't stop currency debasement and are already being censored (seized), so bitcoin will keep going up.
"Full-On Corruption": A Horrific Account Of Government Harassment Against Jan. 6 'Survivor'
Trump's tariffs on Canada and Mexico are trying to fulfill the Parasites plan to make a North American Union.
Sources :
1. Trump himself (saying essentially that Canada should become a State of the USA),
2. Aaron Russo (interview with Alex Jones, long ago, talking about his conversation with a Rockfeller) and
3. O'Leary recently saying on lamestream news that there should be a North American Union and photos of O'Leary meeting with Trump and Smith (from Alberta) recently.
*Change my mind!*
I hope that Canada uses this opportunity to become a real economy. Instead of selling its oil and gas for pennies, they should be making things and selling the finished products, or using them locally. Could be btc mining too instead of building pipelines and exporting cheaply. Trump is helping Make Canada Great Again, if Canada can understand and move on this opportunity. Canada has so much natural resources. There's no excuse to not produce pretty much everything locally. The country is just badly managed, but it shouldn't be "managed" at all. Let free entreprise fix those problems.
How long ago did you switch to Mac from Linux? You might find that it got really much better than it was. I've been on linux for over 20 years now and the progress throughout the years is wonderful. You might find a distribution that you like (elementaryOS, Pop!_OS, etc).
