Don't trust, verify...

Don't make financial decisions based on what sponsored influencers tell you.

Watched a bunch of the podcast episodes (keep up the good work) and from what I saw it wasn't hard separating the content from the "ads".

Trezor is fine IMO, coldcard also works well and is easy to use with electrum & #bitcoin

Whatever you do, only buy direct from the official website of the manufacturer AND either use a fake identity + P.O. box or make sure they don't store your real life email/phone/address when the order has been completed.

My buddy had his email, phone and address leaked by ledger and received tons of nasty phone calls, emails and letters to his house (threats/scams/marketing).

In my country #bitcoin is by default considered to be speculation and therefore all transactions (onchain or ⚡) are all taxable events.

I wonder if I could send a few sats back and forth millions of times, resulting in millions of taxable events that have to be documented in my yearly tax paperwork and effectively denial-of-service "attack" the tax office...

So far nostr reminds me of usenet/newsgroups back in the late 90s.

No idea, new as well, but it sure is better than any other form of social media I've tried recently
