Bought #bitcoin today. Easy choice.

What's the strongest #psychedelic experience you ever had? Any #DMT psychonauts on Nostr?

Very painful to see your oldest, best friend since childhood become the insane, ranting, nonsensical drug addict alcoholic you often see wandering city streets. He's done too many drugs by himself, alone. He's in another reality now. Rehab didn't work. AA/NA worked for awhile, until it didn't. I fucking hate benzos & liquor, the way they crush a man's soul, possess you.. Scary to see what I likely would have become if I hadn't found #bitcoin and changed my life around, focusing on long term goals and creating a business. Now I sell security products for NFL, NHL, NBA games, and major music festivals, living my dream job traveling, clean from drugs, worshipping Christ & saving in Bitcoin. Bitcoin killed my nihilism and despair. Bitcoin is Hope. My once best friend will be wandering the streets on vodka & pills in the next 30 days when he's homeless again. May God Bless you, Nick. Thank you Satoshi, for blessing us with your Gift.

#BTC The anti-cantillion; Where the Physical turns Intangible. Divine digital physics, divine order; #Bitcoin A Supermassive Black Hole, feeding off dying fiat currencies, like dead worlds in cyberspace, that have thus distorted our perspectives, like bent light or a stigmatism. Satoshi, the optimistic anonymous economist optometrist! Further down the Wormhole we speed. What's ahead - unknown, beautiful, novel.. #Bitcoin's density is increasing. Even the largest Black Rock cannot escape the zen of its tug.

LocalMonero off F-Droid is fucking awesome. Strong tool for human rights. Amazing infrastructure for no-KYC marketplace. Shocked I haven't tried it yet, Lightning is supported too.

A way to send or swap #bitcoin zaps for #monero zaps on a simple orderbook relay would be neat

I like Monero. I use it for things. I don't hold it or invest in it. Bitcoin privacy techniques are worthwhile, and I do them, but they are costly, slow (in the world of Whirlpool) and not bulletproof. I'm a world of extremely high on-chain fees, impossible and not feasible. The need for privacy can be life or death. Freedom or enslavement. Monero is a better choice, hands down, for dark transactions. Why is this remotely controversial? XMR is just a digital vehicle to privately shuffle some amount of value around. If it was $1, it would still be just as useful. It is the only altcoin worth respecting for it's usefulness, worthwhile existence, and innovation. Bitcoin needs a layer for encrypted transactions, but until then, I view Monero as an off-chain privacy payment rail for Bitcoin's value. Swapping between them is crucially important for now. Thank you Samourai Wallet!

Good morning! Time to wake up
