Over dinner I've been thinking "what if" we were to create a platform similar to Amazon but for Bitcoin products and merchants with shipping centres in the US, EU and Asia? I know, we have "online stores" for Bitcoin products but that's not the same. For example, me ordering from nostr:npub1uzt238htjzpq39dxmltlx60vxym9fetk9czz6kddq6fhvkf4z3usy9qtrh makes no sense. Import and shipping will make the product uninteresting / too expensive. But, if we had a EU distribution center buying from US merchants in larger scale, it would completely change the cost and import prices for such products.

Need an escrow setup as part of it. Even Satoshi foresaw that, first page of the white paper said -- "Transactions that are computationally impractical to reverse would protect sellers from fraud, and routine escrow mechanisms could easily be implemented to protect buyers."
Buyer pays bitcoin into 2 of 3 multisig. Seller ships products with a tracking label. When delivery confirmed, bitcoin is released to seller. Disputes settled by 2 of 3.

Similars laws are about to pass in Canada.
Silk road still making headlines in #Canada eh👇
Such a great shot!
I think the impact of this Act is underestimated. It will make it easier and more acceptable for people all over the world to get access to earning USD which many economies currently restrict — all in a self custody wallet which no bank or government can control or restrict.
Instead of buying a Bitaxe or a NerdQAxe++ it makes more sense to just buy the equivalent dollar amount of bitcoin, agreed?
AI says…..
Yes, in most cases, buying Bitcoin directly makes more financial sense than purchasing a Bitaxe Touch ($275-$499, 1.6 TH/s) or NerdQAxe++ ($459.99, 4.8 TH/s) for mining.

Unless…. you roll the dice and win a full block reward, based on the initial upfront cost, joining a mining pool just seems like it could never actually make sense for a personal small mining device.

How do I join? Let’s do this.
Soooo you are Canadian?
Either way doesn’t leave the best feeling that they are in charge of custody for ppl.

Seems silly in context.
There was an occasion though, big Oilers OT win tonight!
They decriminalized hard drugs, with people opening using in public. Pretty sure the cops would leave you alone if you had a bottle of wine with a picnic at the park, no?
Stripe just bought Privy, a wallet provider for banks and enterprise. Privy support ⚡️ lightening.
Third should be mandatory.... I like my island.
The GPT summary to get you interested— Zone 2 training is aerobic exercise performed at a moderate intensity—usually 60–70% of your maximum heart rate—where you can still hold a conversation. It’s typically done through steady-state activities like jogging, cycling, or brisk walking.
Why it’s good:
• Improves mitochondrial efficiency (your cells’ ability to produce energy).
• Builds a strong aerobic base for endurance.
• Enhances fat metabolism.
• Supports heart health and lowers resting heart rate.
• Promotes long-term metabolic and cardiovascular fitness without overstressing the body.
It’s a cornerstone of Dr. Peter Attia’s approach to longevity-focused fitness.
Just slow it down. Hit the Zone 2 run program (Dr. Peter Attia). Avoids injuries and he mixes in sprint days.
Thanks. Will look at those.
