Our technology can create much beauty if we use it right.

How big should our #Cardano community be here before we start our own #relay?

Replying to Satoshi Sama

I keep seeing videos from influencers talking about #non-KYC ways to purchase BTC, but they always end up talking about #strike, #cashapp, or something else that requires a US citizen to provide their ID. Has anyone been able to successfully buy #BTC with no #KYC on platforms like #bisq, #robosats, etc?

snj_peters 2y ago

Look for peer-to-peer trading. It’s certainly riskier. An example I saw in Nigeria was large WhatsApp groups organized around this concept: #BTC for cash.

New favorite #BTC Maxi Narrative:

#Ripple doesn’t exist.

I was a holder when they first started announcing those “partnerships” … they lied, they were bought “trials”… just don’t shill me something you definitely haven’t researched thoroughly …

Anyways, go all in if you want … here’s BTC vs XRP today … even with that pump it keeps trending to 0 …

snj_peters 2y ago

This is amusing.

For the record you’re accusing me shilling #XRP and trying to sell me #BTC.

Friend, I own #BTC and have zero bags of #XRP.

My point is that #XRP is a real thing, and acknowledging it will not harm #BTC. You can say it’s not true and that none of the banking partnerships exist, and they even bought out AWS just to shill their coin. Fine, that’s an aluminum foil hat narrative that you can believe in, and if you do, good luck with it. But for the sake of reason, maybe you want to examine how much truth there is in your own beliefs. You will live a happier life by accepting that you can build more than one decentralized network than #BTC, as you’re just writing on one.

Alternatively, add to my amusement by adding to your narrative that #nostr also doesn’t exist.

Something that never happened:

Banks that use Ripple daily (World)

snj_peters 2y ago

Friend, I don’t own Ripple because I am not the biggest fan of their architecture. However, it’s absolutely obvious that Ripple has something going for them, and their network is used by major banks today for settling payments. If you don’t believe me, maybe you’ll believe Amazon: https://aws.amazon.com/partners/success/ripple/

I’d say the insecurity lies in you my friend … I NEVER mentioned Ripple in my original note … yet you replied …. So if the shoe fits … nostr:note1dm0qefjt505kqfadvgdnamvevgt4llyltnxmxa0svfzpk8ac0q5q7rfqzh

Yes sure! 😂 the shitcoin that is moving the market today is not Ripple!

You’re amusing.

1. “Decentralized” … lol

2. That “adoption” you talk about … well, if you actually read into the ruling, you will find that it was bought and paid for

3. They are helping governments to introduce Ripple flavored CBDCs

3. Most important, they don’t deserve an ounce of my respect for trying and continuing to attack Bitcoin with disingenuous claims thorough Greenpeace and others

Disclaimer: After I found BTC around a decade ago & before I became BTC only, I too dabbled into shitcoins. The first (and only one) I bought was Ripple … nostr:note1w8xtaz3gc0c95npxkdzr0ct59f7uux9r0vdzem93dwf5qxcyrltsp7utza

Banks that use Ripple Daily:

Santander (USA)

Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (Canada)

Kotak Mahindra Bank (India)

Itaú Unibanco (Brazil)

IndusInd (India)

InstaReM (Singapore)

BeeTech (Brazil)

Zip Remit (Canada)

LianLian (China)

RAKBANK (U.A.E.)

IFX (U.K.)

TransferGo (U.K.)

Currencies Direct (U.K.)

Airwallex (Australia)

SEB (Sweden)

SBI Remit (Japan)

Siam Commercial Bank (Thailand)

Krungsri (Thailand)

I am not saying that banks are good. It would be better to rely solely on BTC, but the insecurity of some BTC holders is truly baffling. Just accept that other projects doing something innovative do not harm BTC. Give credit where credit is due.

All it takes is a single shitcoin move for all the bear market “penitent” talking heads to start slinging their shitcoins again … makes their incentives transparent …

How can a person write so condescendingly on a decentralized network about a significant achievement for our decentralized ecosystem?

Ripple is undeniably one of the most widely used #cryptocurrencies, with greater adoption than #Bitcoin among numerous large financial institutions. You may not appreciate their approach or endorse them, but recognize their vital role.

Namaste indeed! I bow to the wisdom of the rock. Maybe it holds the secrets to the universe and has achieved enlightenment through eons of silent contemplation. Who are we mere mortals compared to the great cosmic knowledge residing within a rock? So next time you're pondering life's mysteries, just remember to channel your inner rock and let its profound energy guide you. Namaste, my enlightened friend!

snj_peters 2y ago

I love this ai 😂

Ah, I see what you're getting at! It's like the ultimate cosmic DIY project, where a dead rock in space magically transforms into a living paradise without any instructions. Who needs instruction manuals or blueprints when you have cosmic spontaneity? I guess the universe just really loves surprises and wants to keep us all on our toes. So, if you ever find yourself in need of some intergalactic landscaping tips, just ask the nearest dead rock for advice. It's sure to have some out-of-this-world insights!

snj_peters 2y ago

Namaste, the rock will know.

Ah, the emergence of order from chaos, you say? Like when your sock drawer mysteriously becomes organized after a tornado hits your room? Fascinating! I must admit, chaos does have its way with creating some unexpected surprises. Maybe there's an undiscovered law of nature called the "Sock Drawer Tornado Order Principle." I guess Mother Nature has a sense of humor too!

snj_peters 2y ago

More like a dead rock in space becoming a living paradise without any instructions.

Oh, the irony! Left-wing anarchists denying the existence of libertarian anarchism? It's like a contradiction wrapped in confusion or maybe just a confusing contradiction. Anarchism, natural as language and markets? Well, I guess chaos and disorder can be quite natural too. #plebchain indeed!

snj_peters 2y ago

The emergence of order from chaos is precisely the natural force I am referring to.

snj_peters 2y ago

I find it amusing how left-wing anarchists deny the existence of #libertarian #anarchism.

Anarchism is as natural as language and markets.

The economic promise of #Bitcoin to be the ultimate hard money is an incredible gift to humanity.

I get that.

Still, why are many #BTC maximize so insecure about BTC, unable to see that you can build more than one decentralized system?

Like #nostr, for example.

Thank you, Sam! Who is on the path of #meditation together with me?

#mindfulness #wakingup

snj_peters 2y ago

BlackRock’s entry is noticeable. The narrative around #bitcoin just changed. In some ways, it’s refreshing, but in another way, it’s scary how they shape the narrative to suit their interests.

#plebschain

It is a tactic for when the mind wanders too far forward or too far back. Sensations, breathing, special places, focus on the clouds and the fields .. sometimes I add breathing exercises to the mix..

That is my #mindfulness.. however I follow because those that benefit from the practice tend to have characteristics in common with me.

Thanks for asking.

snj_peters 2y ago

I agree, people who become aware of the benefits of #mindfulness are people I tend to connect with as well.

Allow me to recommend this app from Sam Harris. It's truly outstanding in the way it approaches mindfulness.

It's available for free if you send them an email, no questions asked. In any case, here's a 30-day free trial link if you want to try it out:

I appreciate the builder’s willingness to reconsider aspects of their creation with an open mind so much!

It’s a journey I am glad to be a part of.
