Build your own airgapped, stateless bitcoin signing device for less than most hardware wallets. 🤘 Not set up for zaps, if you'd like to donate to our contributors please go to https://donate.seedsigner.com

Yep, this is exactly what I'm here for... nostr:note1xdq4pzxpzwfncq0379n5vyr5qtvwfnne7cjt0znz7pxtmetnkldsnnkxc2

We will have a booth in the conference maker space -- hope to see you in Nashville as well. 🧡

Some notes on this:

Every morning I get up and work for bitcoin, but this is a a bit more literal... 😜 As many of you know I build and sell signers as a way to get them into more people's hands, and to support my individual work on our project. The revenue from the signers and other things I sell in my online shop (https://btc-hardware-solutions.square.site; Entropia, Go Kits, SeedKeepers, etc.) is how I'm able to cover expenses related to the project, and to travel to conferences and meetups where I can share information on SeedSigner and what I've learned during my personal bitcoin journey relative to cold storage, given my unique background. Here and there I'm also able to help cover some of our family's expenses.

When we recently transitioned to a new approach to user donations at https://donate.seedsigner.com I intentionally withdrew myself as a donation recipient. I wanted our most active technical contributors to be the ones benefitting from donations, directly receiving periodic digital monetary expressions of gratitude over time as the project grows and reaches more and more bitcoiners. (As a side note -- if you're a user or otherwise receiving value from our project, I'd encourage you to send some sats their way via the above URL.)

As for myself, I've always offered to sell signers p2p for bitcoin via DMs / email, but for a long time I've been wanting to level up in that regard. Over the last weeks I've finally gotten a proper LN node set up, where I also run nostr:npub155m2k8ml8sqn8w4dhh689vdv0t2twa8dgvkpnzfggxf4wfughjsq2cdcvg and a modest (for now) web presence. I need to express a lot of gratitude to nostr:npub1l5pxvjzhw77h86tu0sml2gxg8jpwxch7fsj6d05n7vuqpq75v34syk4q0n, nostr:npub1r7psmkr4zv93xnal8un6d8hvmpsn5jvhfzn3kk38rfcel6awznks7znspg and nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll for their help as I've worked to become more of a 1st class bitcoin citizen.

With planned trips to Nashville, Atlanta, and Amsterdam to represent the project on the horizon, I'm looking to stack some sats that will help me continue to spread the SeedSigner gospel of a more trustless, more self-reliant approach to saving with bitcoin. So I've set up this small online store where I'll be selling some of the items from my Square shop for sats. I'm starting with milled aluminum signers (kudos to nostr:npub1l2xfcjd8k5l3c6mkpd95uptdnxcqw5yms0pz57l7v46qzgdju0msy96ndl for his continued amazing work on these enclosures) and I'm offering a small discount and free protective case for paying with bitcoin.

If you've been looking for the right opportunity to upgrade your SeedSigner experience, or if you've been waiting for a decent deal on one, please consider supporting my work in this way -- the URL is below.

Otherwise, a big thank you all for the kindness and support that so many bitcoiners have shown me over the last couple of years -- I hope to get to shake your hand at an event soon. 🧡🙏

Good to see you on Nostr! Got the metal seed signer I ordered when we met in Prague. Hope life is treating you well. Enjoy camping!

Really enjoyed meeting and talking as well. 🧡 Will you be in Nashville later this month?

One of them has gone bad, but they all started accurate and the other three are still good. The best part is that the base station links to an app that will chart the temps out over time.

Happy Fourth! #meatstr

Had a call about our upcoming release earlier today with nostr:npub1rfd0hxdzcze6pzj29thuz34vur57wm9quje7w3edxjgusq6m47csnl7wrt nostr:npub1tv8gmfhalwnxxquxjzeh6gtdsdz6vg7vx0s3rt7s7uuw6aujh32qn77wn2 and nostr:npub177zfcmyscnl7805qtx7cn8v9607n3s9m096fl8nev5uzqdg6mruqshdp8e -- at virtually every interaction with these guys I am reminded how blessed I am to have found such great collaborators. 🧡

My stash from nostr:npub167n5w6cj2wseqtmk26zllc7n28uv9c4vw28k2kht206vnghe5a7stgzu3r, great event!

Got to hang out more with some danish guys from nostr:npub1h5gc62mhzak97z9y9mznc9jcwv0re8nx9eqt35ta9d4kyvjqt9csnzjx0m (twentyone), met the SS Commander from nostr:npub17tyke9lkgxd98ruyeul6wt3pj3s9uxzgp9hxu5tsenjmweue6sqq4y3mgl again and upgraded to the luxury version (now to find a keychain hehe), met Dusan from AmityAge on Roatan in person plus his dad (again) and got a cool clock from nostr:npub1k5f85zx0xdskyayqpfpc0zq6n7vwqjuuxugkayk72fgynp34cs3qfcvqg2. Also I finally met my main light and health guru Dr. Jack Kruse after 6 or 7 years of following, very cool 😄

Thank you Prague for some great days and gullash.

nostr:npub17tyke9lkgxd98ruyeul6wt3pj3s9uxzgp9hxu5tsenjmweue6sqq4y3mgl doesn't have a marketing department since it's free and open source. So it's harder to get the word out, but this is totally correct!

Seed signer doesn't have a secure element because it doesn't store your keys! Generate your keys offline and use the SS to sign transactions - simple.
