Until Nostr launches videos that I can watch Subscription across Subscription across Subscription like Youtube, I will continue to watch Youtube TV like a proletariate.

High-value, short video on the prevalence of fake gold, gold in black-markets, and China’s REAL real-estate collapse…

#Bitcoin will not magically succeed, we must push it forward, in our businesses. That means talking to the people who accept payments, talking to the web-service providers for our businesses, talking to front-office personnel and walking them thru what Bitcoin is, how to use it, implementing infrastructure, building banking relationships, working with accounting and tax-reporting to ensure that… oh. shit. This is why no established business is accepting Bitcoin. We are 10 years from acceptance. View quoted note →

Bitcoiners are now playing poker with a cadre of rich-dudes who just walked up to the table full of confidence. They’ve got all the chips in the world. And that’s concerning. They’ve mastered the rules of the game. But the cards have changed, there’s only 21. And we’ve played this way for years…they haven’t.

Can someone do me a solid and explain this short AAntonop vid where he says that in a, say, 2 of 3 multi-sig you can spend w/ 2 signatures, but if you lose any one of the 3 you lose your Bitcoin…?

I got on Nostr almost 10 months ago (still on Testflight), but my experience feels vague, like I’m shadowbanned, so I’m considering a paid relay. So asking: Are paid-relays significantly better experience? And if so, is it a matter of subbing to 1 … or to multiple? fyi I have 20+ relays atm.

Perhaps my fav US Presidential candidate is the penultimate psyop rug-pull, or a 4th Turning true hero. Or perhaps the System has anticipated another weakness in me I haven’t recognized. I have 15 months to evaluate, here in the US. I don’t judge, I don’t trust, I verify. And every block is on my side. I can afford to watch, breathe, relax, and know that I am ok.

fwiw, I’m using Damus on iPad and can’t Zap anymore. It sux for me, and even more for a lot of you. I didn’t even think I wanted to Zap. At first…

My only “Barbie” post and then I’m done… So Ken is fuckin’ srsly 43 years old!?! How did this even get greenlit…then not cancelled as grooming?

Bitcoiners seem to fetishize meat right now, and that’s natural and right as we’re a tribe under attack. That will change, future Bitcoiners will become vegetarians/vegans, but for now we instinctively crave meat in our diet to combat the other carnivores in the world who want to destroy us. So I thought I’d offer a concise article I searched-up on “grades” of meat, to help us Bitcoiners understand why you will never get a steak at a supermarket that you can “cut with a butterknife”…and why its crucial to learn recipes for making delicacies out of “tough-cuts”. That old “Betty Crocker” cookbook from your gramma is your best friend, fwiw. There is a time-tested recipe for every cut of meat to make it ridiculously good. But start with grading: https://www.thespruceeats.com/usda-beef-grades-1328658

On iPad, on Damus, lack of zap-ability is hurting my experience. But iPad is my internet interface. I thought I’d slide thru under the radar because I joined during Testflight, but no. Just want to complain. That’s all. Thx for being a shoulder. I’ll leave corporate interfaces w/ interwebs first chance I get.

I believe…Bitcoin will offer humanity a better future. I believe…Bitcoin is ideal, and idealistic. I believe…Bitcoin will underestimate its opponents. I believe…Bitcoin will compete with other monetary options. I believe…Bitcoin will shed it’s first generation for a less idealistic generation. I believe…Bitcoin will suffer, yet abide, and emerge mature. I believe…Bitcoin will find its place as simple money.

In 4 or 5 years Bitcoin is going to be so “popular” that the people I appreciate here right now will likely be subsumed and lost in the tsunami of new Bitcoiners who are far more monetized and sexy and smarter and sophisticated than we are. It will be a painful transition. So I’d like to take a moment to appreciate everyone that hears this message. Right now. You’ve helped me. I appreciate that. And I will not forget you when you’re forgotten.
