No te habras tomado unas pintad con Ben Arc?
I'm looking forward to see it as well.
Seeing the prints from your original that I have in the office always fills me with some comforting hope that we can make art great again.
Los gloriosos servicios pĂşblicos atacan de nuevo. Y Ă©sta es la cara visible de la moneda, pero hay otra más discreta e igual de dañina: todos los profesores de disciplinas sin demanda que estarán cobrando artificialmente más que lo que el mercado libre les pagarĂa deben estar contentos de pasar desapercibidos.
Esto lo hacen antes o después de decirte que eres un desalmado deseoso de ver indigentes muriendo en la calle sin atención sanitaria?
Wow thanks @npub10pensatlcfwktnvjjw2dtem38n6rvw8g6fv73h84cuacxn4c28eqyfn34f, nostr:npub1dergggklka99wwrs92yz8wdjs952h2ux2ha2ed598ngwu9w7a6fsh9xzpc, nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft , nostr:npub107jk7htfv243u0x5ynn43scq9wrxtaasmrwwa8lfu2ydwag6cx2quqncxg and all the openSats team đź’ś I'm incredibly grateful to receive this grant. Let's keep buidling! The future belongs to open source, or it doesn't exist!
Felicidades campeon, eres una maquina
But we are trading off increased privacy for centralization on the mint, which becomes a SPOF and a target for entities with censorship ambitions?
They can't censor individual TXs, but they can try to blow up the mint entirely.
So... we need to make a joint mint with Nancy Pelosi to make sure the US government will not destroy it.
Imagine you run a barr. Sometimes I go there to have a beer. You also happen to hire me once a week to clean it.
Everytime we pay each other, the bank charges us fees. So, when I get a beer from you, we pay a fee. When you pay me for cleaning your bar, we pay a fee.
After doing this for some time, we feel a bit stupid, and we decide to do things differently. Instead of paying each other on every single interaction, we simply keep tabs on each other, and settle whenever we feel like it. This way, we save a lot on fees.
So, the LN is this:
- For Bitcoin
- Without having to trust each other (neither you nor me can run away with an open debt)
- And if I have a tab with Alice as well, you can pay Alice through me even if you guys don't keep a tab between each other
That does the trick. From this point on, I either show the beginner how to use it practically, or if he's curious about the technical bits, we jump from the metaphor to the actual implementation details.
La pelicula me parece una obra maestra, y el comic tambien. Yo te sugeriria que leas tambien el comic. La pelicula es fidedigna pero no al 100%, de forma que leer el comic enriquece. El comic es mas crudo y tiene mas foco en las ideas anarquistas.
Fuck the banks
Una gran noche de meetup en nostr:npub10nlyn8wm0da6wqgawnl0qvjx6thyy00mvlpm0aetkx5nf7kw9xdsgz26e8!
Nos vemos en la prĂłxima para seguir dando la turra con #Bitcoin.
Eres Bitcoiner y todavĂa no tienes una camiseta chula de Bitcoin? Sigue a nostr:npub1cam9ttcuprjyp5nrhx7ehgjyaqvl2r8el75xqawtd304p84lcpjsvm43mj
I agree with you on the belief that we should stop demonizing custodial options. They are an option. It comes with trade-offs. That's it. I am afraid that we are doing a disservice to adoption by ranting over purity of certain LN wallet options.
And I am very much looking forward to seeing all the custodians using cashu.
No veo el momento de tener rides P2P, tanto larga distancia como dentro de ciudad.
Un verdadero Uber sin entidad central donde las persones se llevan felizmente unas a otras y el coste del transporte se reduce drásticamente por la productividad y el libre mercado.
Creo que con esto, seria perfectamente viable cruzarse una ciudad como Madrid o Barcelona por 5€.
A post I liked from stacker news (https://stacker.news/items/233174).
I know everyone recommends this and that wallet for XYZ reasons. I'm here today to briefly shill Phoenix Wallet as a hot onchain/LN wallet for noobs or even lazy power users. This might be interesting if you have never used it OR you used it anytime before a couple of weeks ago. If you are in the latter group, your experience is now outdated.
Okay, you might have heard a lot of noise recently about Phoenix and the new splicing stuff and how awesome splicing is. It is, but I'm gonna skip the technical bit today and present stuff from the user POV.
Okay, so what's the deal? Since Phoenix 2.0 started to use splicing, this is the cool stuff:
You can send and receive onchain sats. You simply pay the miner fees when sending. That's it.
You can send and receive through Lightning. Usual LN fees (the proper super low ones, not the stupid high ones from Muun and the like). I can pay a 10,000 sats (~3$) beer through LN and the fee will be around ~40 sats (roughly, one cent).
You only see and have one balance. Everything you have is both spendable onchain and through Lightning. No need to juggle to balances and go around swapping like an idiot.
The backup is a 12 word seedphrase. You know the drill. The wallet is noncustodial and you hold your own keys.
Feels like nothing? Well, to me, it feels like a gift from God. Giving a complete noob a wallet in 2023 before this option came around was a drama. You have to deal with a monster matrix of feature combinations, onchain vs lightning, custodial vs noncustodial, normal seedphrases vs crazy recovery schemes, etc. And no wallet crossed all the checks. Muun was the wallet that so far came closer to having it all, but it had its issues (weird backup approach, crazy fees for LN, lack of transparency on how certain features worked).
Now Phoenix has finally done it. The noobie installs it. Writes down 12 words. You send him his first sats through onchain or LN, whatever you prefer. He can then send it out again through onchain or lightning with reasonable fees for each option. All non-custodial and with a great UX.
I'm dramatically pumped about this. It's going to be such a great tool for onboarding people. And also as a personal wallet, even if you are an experienced node runner.
I would like to leave with a call to action. If you haven't tried Phoenix 2.0, please, do. And once you have, spread the message and show it to newbies so that they avoid other worse options (Muun? Already discussed. WoS? Custodial. Bluewallet? Two different balances for onchain and lightning).
Glad to see you building Darth.
Would love to pay a visit if opsec allows. Perhaps a meetup even?
Looking forward to see the day when the CEXes dissappear and we only have P2P.
And eventually, not even those... once there is nothint to exchange for.
