Bitcoin made me more lonely. That's true for many people I'm sure I'm not the only one.

If you miss someone. But on the other hand you know they're batshit crazy. 😵‍💫

trying to log in with primal (or any other nostr service) + nos2x is a very disappointing experience. Why do developers hardly foresee a "log in with extension" link or something? It's really rotten to stare at a blank screen, no errors, no user feedback... you "just have to know" linux-mentality.

Some want you to go "seedless", they want to be your middleman, expensive hardware with a questionable supply chain and a "subscription" like model to refresh your equipment every so many times. Others... build open-source tools that can be replicated, run offline or online, and give you a way to generate seeds. and

I miss a lot of people. I miss genuine people the most. But even fake ones can be missed. At least better than spineless useless f's.

They should rename these corporate Bitcoin conferences to 'Saylorfest'. Would make it more clear that it's for the show-offs and the audience that's only 'in bitcoin' when the price is up.

A few months ago, I predicted the bitcoin conferences would further "fork" away from each other between the upperl-layer industry fake-corporate ones (with big names and shitcoiners / middlemen) and on the other side the grassroots PoW people with no budget. Seems like we're seeing more and more of this ...

(Dutch) Jammer dat er geen onafhankelijke drukkingsgroep bestaat die financiële vrijheid, privacy en bitcoin vertegenwoordigt. De tijd begint stilaan op te raken; na oktober 2025 word je gewoon gecriminaliseerd, zonder weerwoord of organisatie.

I've introduced some new people to Nostr. Just to see where the pain and hurdles are. 'There's only garbage on there, no news and no curation, I only saw uninteresting things, pure chaos' Other one: 'couldn't open iris' 'the keys are difficult, where do I find them?' No one even get to the point of zapping...

(in Dutch) Wel grappig, op de raam van een "cash punt" in de stad stond in grote letters: "cash droppen kan hier" ... Waarna je op alle automaten in dat cashpunt de functie "cash storten" verwijdert zag op de interface 😉 banken zijn zo'n tricksters

Newer Bitcoiners only seem to listen when the "big 10" names say something.
