Hey legends,
I have a question that I cannot wrap my head around. I have been looking into Bitcoin op_return being raised to 100KB and I see the argument that if you are against then you are for censorship.
This is so bewildering because if you claim that then you must have believed that Bitcoin has been censored since 2015.
I am trying to understand the positive side of increasing the op_return, I don't understand.

Hey legends,
I know that I am private on here but wanted to share with you something personal. My dad is in the hospital (it happened so all of a sudden). My family didn't tell me since I live out of the country but I understood. I feel so scared and sad. Please pray with me that he will be fine!
Hey legends,
This is not Bitcoin but FOSS. I use NixOS as my daily driver and have been doing lots of changes. Apparently I had so much clutter that when I cleaned my previous configurations (eg changes) I managed to recover 99gb. This is insane! 😂😂😂😄
Hey legends,
I have to share with you the experience that I had from visiting the BTC businesses in Arnhem, Netherlands.
In short, it was amazing. Shops are more than happy to accept Bitcoin payments.
What was impressive to me is that I paid them from my non-custodial lightning wallet over the Tor network over 4G and every payment went through!
These are just some of the businesses that I visited. There were others as well.
PS: One thing that I have noticed is that Bitcoin businesses are not only more friendly but they provide higher quality services / goods most of the time. Furthermore, Arnhem is a city with great architecture and it should be in your bucket list. I know that I will visit it again!


I have never sold Bitcoin, I don't see why I would. However, this doesn't mean that I don't use Bitcoin. I use it as often as I can. For example this weekend I am going to Arnhem to support the local Bitcoin economy.
So I have outbound liquidity on my lightning node but no inbound liquidity? Anybody know why? I thought that when you deposit on chain BTC and lock it in 2-2 smart contract you have outbound and inbound at the same time?
Hey legends,
I have setup a lightning node with Ride the lightning. I have deposited on chain 50k sata to the node and opened my first channel. This is a small step for Bitcoin but a giant step for nostr:nprofile1qqs87y4y3hh052uk7pemc23phad9cz2cpgs3pqqaathp6rd635cntwgprpmhxue69uhkymmzvf3zuer4vd4kgmnn9ehhyee0qy2hwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytn00p68ytnyv4mz7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yh8qunfd4skctnwv46z7us80jh.
Soon, I will switch fully to self custodial lightning (I have already been on self custodial BTC for a while in my journey) but I thought that lightning is scary. Well, it isn't.
I am using nix-bitcoin. Kiddos to the team!
First time that my girlfriend and I go to the gym together, it felt so good to at it together ❤🔥!
Just deleted my X app, I noticed it makes me more angry. So, I will stick to Nostr and Bitcoin from now onwards.
