gm. check out this episode about the guys who built the transatlantic telegraph cable. they failed over 3 times but remained locked in and eventually succeeded. we really need more people out there working on ambitious, human scaled projects like this.

i want to speak to satoshi nakamoto and tell him i’m doing the best i can, but there’s simply so much to do.

been reflecting on the bitcoin for signal campaign. i want to share why we designed it in the way we did. a lot of bitcoin projects try to get people to come to them. 'latest layer 2/ecash/ark/lightning/spark/liquid!' 'simple wallet!' 'frictionless onboarding!' i think that's not always the best approach. instead of promoting a new app or asking people to meet us, we should try to meet people where they already are and then make the case for bitcoin. millions already use signal everyday so why ask them to go somewhere else for private payments? bring bitcoin to them instead. i want to see more projects try to integrate bitcoin where people already hangout. cashapp nailed this imo. they didn't build a bitcoin app and ask people to come. they integrated bitcoin into a space that people already use to send $ to friends. try to follow that playbook.

i like how this shader reveal and hover effect is turning out.

refreshing to come across a site like this

Pierre Computer Company

i'm convinced the people who majorly move the needle on improving human life are civil engineers, computer programmers, electrical engineers, physicists, structural engineers, medical researchers etc...not politicians, nonprofit workers, or advocacy groups.

“who will run the mints?” i come from piracy/private trackers/ torrents. i know exactly who will: the same type of people motivated to keep torrent trackers alive. a wise man once said: “what the piratebay learned is that in the game of whack a mole, the moles win.”

milton friedman in 1990 on the future development of perfectly private ecash. i appreciate how he describes the push ux of ecash as just like handing someone a dollar bill.

GM. What do you think about these Cashu shirts?

Hello @hal

here's a quick tutorial on how to send cashu ecash directly on iMessage using Macadamia. Download Macadamia on iOS ->

macadamia Wallet

The first native iOS wallet for the Cashu ecash protocol. Private, instant, non-custodial digital cash.

We came, we saw, we vibe coded Cashu into Bitchat.

Cashu is a perfect fit for chat apps. Today at Presidio Bitcoin for Bitcoin Design Week we’re running a vibe coding session. I’ll be showing a Cashu wallet I vibe coded straight into Bitchat with CDK and we’ll do some collaborative vibe coding together. If you're in SF, join us.

GM. Freedom is its own kind of salary.

GM. Start your day with this in the background.

Is there a SMS service where I can pay with bitcoin to receive a one time SMS?
