We’ve re-invented IRC
My bank put me on fraud investigation after I reported a glitch to them where they were marking various purchases on my card as credits (i.e. refunds) instead of debits.
After initially denying the glitch they realised something was wrong — yet somehow blamed me - the customer who reported the issue to them.
They froze all my accounts including unrelated business accounts.
After several weeks of investigation, they realised it was an internal glitch… but by that point the fraud team had ruled my account be permanently closed.
The most infuriating thing was the disrespect I was shown throughout the whole process.
Denial of the issue, sending me to FAQs on how a credit card works, making me wait hours on the phone… then after realising the glitch, assuming I was some reckless kid trying to steal money.
I can’t wait until I’m completely off fiat, I’m sick of using banks. Hell, I’m considering a move to the USA just to use nostr:nprofile1qqsw4096vtjqyyjyfuzys8pqkxtpacdgtm7ljl2dftyfsjpfqqcp2fq20jrgx …
no good deed goes unpunished
I like post tipping but I would advocate for hiding the amount. People will stop tipping if they think that post has already received enough money (diminishing marginal generosity), also it could create a content homogenization effect where people start posting the same things hoping to catch some tips.
Mate, just listened to this and was fire. Beautifully articulated thoughts! Great stuff

What’s your take on the theory that Len Sassaman could have been Satoshi? https://evanhatch.medium.com/len-sassaman-and-satoshi-e483c85c2b10
Might be a diversion but Satoshi was using a lot of British idioms like “bloody”, “wet blanket” and the first block references the Financial Times of London. Probably not something an American would do.
I don’t think it’s Adam Back but a combination of two or three people.
🍻❓Pubquiz on a Nordic cruise 🛳️.
A guy checks out my LNCal t-shirt and approaches me saying:
“oh cool. Are you into Bitcoin? I’ve got tons of Ripples since 2017. Just waiting for regulations to clear and it will fly”.
I smiled and left. 🤙🏻
Haha sounds about like a normal day in Bitcoin land. 🤙🏻
Honestly Damus has reached a level of incredible coolness with this last addition of 1 click zapping. Fully deserved.
Apparently ledger pushed an update yesterday that adds a “feature” that encrypts and uploads your seed to third parties? lmao.

That’s what happens when you give carte blanche to a bunch of PMs that don’t get the ethos of Bitcoin
There you go! Makes sense. Thanks a lot
It worked. Awesome. What about the icons? You have the lightning one but not the star
So how do I activate the one click zaps? Also what are the new ⚡️⭐️ icons close to someone’s name?
Where’s the code to click on links on the browser and open your Nostr mobile client? #[0] or anyone?
Where did everyone go?
