Money for enemies.

Makes sense.

Cash is dirty fiat, and just an IOU, so *you* trading it for actual money is good for *you*.

Extrapolated out to the extreme, if *everyone* does this, then the FED ends up with the dirty fiat, and the *people* end up with the actual money.

if the FED is left holding the bag of USD IOUs, then the universe wins.

Decentralizing forces:

- Germany selling their corn

- SAB 121

- Blackrock et al *not* required to hold their corn (cash in, cash out)

These should keep churning the corn until a diamond hand puts it in cold storage. The trend continues until China or the US change their stance. Then the giant sucking sound will be in the other direction.

TCP only is legacy thinking.

Remove the centralized DNS and add a reticulum network endpoint to each nostr relay.

Then transition away from the legacy web altogether

The “ability to move to a different client” should be marketed as “own your own data” by everybody in the space trying to monetize a client.

Then the whole ecosystem gains. Rising tide lifts all boats.

The “sus”, the “incredibly lucky.”

Just go on the record. Do you think he was shot in the ear by someone who wanted to kill him? Or do you think this was set up as a “photo op”?

Sounds small caliber.

I’m sure they had metal detectors.

Maybe a 3d printed weapon?

The cope of the liberals wanting this to be staged is on par. Do better.

TDS is a helluva drug.

Cope

There’s a conspiracy, but not the one you think.

The shooter was down. They had to assess if he was good to move. It’s on audio.

Well it’s *his* life.

On a much smaller scale, Obama said “they” wouldn’t let him use his phone to tweet as president. Trump said “I’m the president “ and does what he wants.

It’s part of leadership.

The secret service does their very important job very well. The person they protect cannot be expected to follow any protocols immediately after being shot.

What if the mints hold <$500 and there’s no massive benefit to rugging people and the ecosystem is like 95-99% good mints?

If it’s added as another option to zap people and competes with lightning I think it would win. Most zaps are a few cents.

When you come online and see you have ecash sats, move them to your ecash wallet with your trusted mint and they settle instantly on lightning. Or send them to your lightning node immediately, testing the mints validity.

This is only if needed for your specific threat model.

You could leave them on nostr and zap others with it if the rug risk isn’t something you are worried about.

So if this is implemented and you login and see 50k sats that you have been gifted, and you immediately move them on lightning, and one of the mints rugs you of 10k sats, did you gain 40k sats or lose 10k sats?

the biggest hurdle for me for usability is the storage of the ecash tokens. Right now, if I delete the browser data on my phone I *may* be able to restore them.

Storing them on nostr is a huge UI win for me.

Wallets should be able to use this off-phone storage, and users should have this option to use this for all npub-protected ecash tokens.

I ordered one

What are some Bitcoin spots in Vancouver BC? #asknostr

Progress and development that is buried is preferable.

When we needed to juice the economy in 2020 we should have made improvements like burying the power lines.

I think most of the sell pressure is whales shorting to margin call all the pushup-ers.

all hash rate should be incentivized to lottery mining. Its the decentralized utopia.

only wildcard is if the RNC pulls Trump if he goes to prison.
