Ark’s first implementation with Arkade has launched and I would love to see you cover this kind of thing. Bitcoin scaling seems to be entering a new era, and your unbiased opinion would be highly valued! https://fountain.fm/episode/tpO39owhO8Nv1arT5lrQ nostr:nevent1qvzqqqpxquqzq398u4n2xxjfswazt82trc2umttsj733umstp0mq6ss9afnkt59jkxavm7

One of the main things keeping me from switching fully to nostr:npub1v5ufyh4lkeslgxxcclg8f0hzazhaw7rsrhvfquxzm2fk64c72hps45n0v5 is the lack of desktop or web support. I’m not going to pretend that adding a new platform to support would be easy, but so many other podcast apps have a desktop equivalent and the lack of one messes with my existing flow. I still want to support the app though and continue to boost through it. https://fountain.fm/episode/dEVrFEYiwHe7CjjkJ2zM nostr:nevent1qvzqqqpxquqzphettpl9xy53q5pxflhsk8wkayhgmclu9hnhjxnn7ntvuy6yxamfja47yc

Wanted to give you another resource to get some info on Spark. Instead of issuing a separate BTC-based coin, the whole system is built on pre-signed exit transactions that get updated for every Spark transaction. This allows users to unilaterally exit from the base chain at any time. I know you consume a lot of content though, so no worries if you can’t get to it, but I do truly believe this might be one of the best scaling solutions that stays true to the Bitcoin ethos. https://fountain.fm/episode/6XPKBxI5LGT17oqww3mN https://fountain.fm/episode/IwvVdS7vgLUWLRVBxT9Y nostr:nevent1qvzqqqpxquqzqr3lnhmajt5u27jaajwdv47u6fkqr4dj0752env8aqh2ncgsxrvkewr9w4

Hey Chris, I’m curious if you’ve looked into the Spark layer 2 solution from LightSpark. Seems really promising and that it would be a good compliment to Lightning. It feels a lot like Liquid, but more trustless. It feels like there are a lot of new layer 2 solutions in the works right now and I’d love your take on them. As always, thanks for the show! https://fountain.fm/episode/pIK01qcjeeU884gIpQKA nostr:nevent1qvzqqqpxquqzpkp6ns2ch2huwqazya6eexctqyghakslm6vw6mplhan5u09nv062g3sm7a

I’m surprised I haven’t seen more people talking about the Spark Layer 2 solution for Bitcoin. Seems extremely promising. https://youtu.be/4LesNBQwKxw

Question for nostr:nprofile1qqsvf646uxlreajhhsv9tms9u6w7nuzeedaqty38z69cpwyhv89ufcqpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejszxrhwden5te0wfjkccte9eekummjwsh8xmmrd9skck2rlgn or anyone else who knows on how the nostr:nprofile1qqsvn0dkjt80raqrxd470c98n7zrdehmcvj6p5hgw3kyku6zyd8z0fqpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqytnja8 app calculates taxes. If I send or receive USD over lightning/onchain, does this result in a taxable event? In the Strike transaction history a send of let’s say $5 over lightning shows up as a single transaction. However, in the background that $5 had to be used to buy BTC to be sent over the lightning network. Or would this be considered more like a fiat withdrawal. Thanks in advance!

I’ve been following Bitcoin since 2013, and while I empathize with the current debate around OP_RETURN, I do wish there was more of a focus on solutions to a specific problem. I’ve never been a huge fan of the idea of the lightning network being the be all end all solution for scaling, and the Bitcoin community could benefit from all the research from other ecosystems. I currently think a decentralized, trust minimized, censorship resistant rollup style “layer 2” would be great for Bitcoin, and I hope the community starts working backwards from the end goal to find the optimal solution for this kind of technology. This is how the forks that allowed the lightning network to operate were accomplished, so I’m sure we can do the same once again. As always, love the show! https://fountain.fm/episode/wAEPrSdJaSN6sBoXPiyc nostr:nevent1qvzqqqpxquqzq4y3640r0l53g59ptc4ewr3f67xx2mj6yeqrhn4aqnvsy70vv83ev62rdk

Happy #Bitcoin ATH Day

Saw Skrillex at Red Rocks with one of my best friends. Legendary set, legendary venue, legendary day. #tunestr https://blossom.primal.net/89919352755e9caf55d5773181fa47547085acf3f55225adb37098328061e0fd.mov

Finally on the finishing touches of this track. What do we think #tunestr? Should I drop this one on nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgqgdwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkcqpqyfg0d955c2jrj2080ew7pa4xrtj7x7s7umt28wh0zurwmxgpyj9sldm58v ? #music #dubstep #riddim https://m.primal.net/QQtt.mov

I guess I missed the news that Coinbase will be launching perpetual futures in the US in the coming weeks. This. Is. Massive. https://www.coinbase.com/blog/coming-soon-24/7-and-perpetual-style-futures-in-the-us

New Skrillex album 🙏 today is a good day

Just a heads up, now is a great time to set up a lightning channel. 👀 I’m finally giving nostr:nprofile1qqsrf5h4ya83jk8u6t9jgc76h6kalz3plp9vusjpm2ygqgalqhxgp9gpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumrpdejqz9nhwden5te0vf5hgcm0d9hx2u3wwdhkx6tpdsq3lv9y a shot. #bitcoin #lightning #lightningnetwork

Need to finish the mixing and mastering, but this track is getting close to releasable 👀 #tunestr https://on.soundcloud.com/ojFayDH8DYidL4pu6

Thinking about doing an EDM DJ set on zap.stream soon, mostly dubstep and other bass music. I've done a couple of sets over FaceTime with a friend of mine and they've gone well, and I could use a push out of my comfort zone.

I also have a few other tracks in the pipeline that aren’t even on my SoundCloud yet, so stay tuned. 👀

Alright you all have given me some serious motivation 💪 time to finish up some of these tracks and get them on nostr:nprofile1qqszy58kj62v9fpe98nhuh0q76np4e0r0g0wd44rhth3wphdnyqjfzcpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuampwekxz6m99e3k7mgpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumrpdejqc9dfae and nostr:nprofile1qqsx2wyjt6lmvc05rrvv05r5hm3w3t7h0pcpmkyswrpd4ymd2u09tscpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3kamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu339e682mnwv4k8xct5wvhxxmmd2684z4.
