Who in the US is working on ending capital gains tax for Bitcoin? I want to send them money. NO OTHER FOREIGN CURRENCY has to deal with this tracking every coin and reporting gains/losses bullshit. #asknostr #bitcoin #regulation

Carl Lundström, one of the founders of The Pirate Bay, died this week in a plane crash. I remember every day reading the news about the trial and hoping they'd emerge victorious. What memories do you have about this site? #asknostr

Been using #nostrudel on Linux, looking for other desktop or web-based clients to try (not big on mobile). Just looking for articles/notes/twitter-like functionality. Suggestions? Thanks! #asknostr

So we're trying to solve this problem of having non-custodial lightning. We want to be able to zap people. Phones can run lightning nodes, but they aren't up all the time. So we've got HODL invoices (Zeus), people mostly using custodial solutions, and now ecash etc which is better custodial but still custodial. Excuse my ignorance, but what if we just idk.. waited? For them to come back online? I mean.. ahem.. had a "low time preference". You could have a bunch of "pending outgoing" zaps and your nostr client occasionally retries the transaction, and if they don't go through after x days, they get cancelled. It incentivizes people to open their wallet occasionally to receive pending zaps. How is this solution not workable or preferable to custodial ones? #asknostr #bitcoin #lightning

Welcome to nostr, where nobody can censor you, where you can speak your mind and collaborate with others freely without restrictions. Unless their client uses a different NIP for DMs, or they're on different relays, or the relay you both share is temporarily down, or you aren't in their web-of-trust but you have no way of knowing this.

Looking for resources for onboarding merchants to Bitcoin. Anybody have links to some good guides for merchants about different ways to accept Bitcoin and their pros/cons? Main chain vs lightning? BTCPayServer vs custodial? Etc. #asknostr #bitcoin #lightningnetwork
