Bitcoin/Lightning VCs have been full-time 'shit posting' on Twitter and Nostr lately because most of their investments in the last cycle have not yet produced an exit....! Another point to note is that most of these companies have created hosted/custodial solutions that are caught between regulators and privacy-focused users...! Here are some of the list of Bitcoin Lightning companies raised in the last season...! Any idea when these companies will reach a billion-dollar valuation? Lightning Labs - $70M Strike - $50M Zebedee - $35M Opennode - $20M Impervious.ai April 2022 - $10M+ Galoy - $7M mash.com - $6M zion.fyi - $6M Breez - $4.5M

There are lots of misinformation on social media about EU AMLR regulations. Please ignore the noise. When googling I found top 100 articles writing garbage about this topic. any news website that has a word "coin" in it is a scam...! Be Positive.. When Uber started, you have to go one corner of the airport to meet the driver.. Now almost every airport has a designated spot for Uber pickup. We will get there..! They did not outright ban self-custodial wallets..! which is the good first step... " the AMLR applies only to OEs/service providers and explicitly excludes obligations for providers of hardware and software or providers of self-custody wallets that don’t have access/control over the crypto-assets " We will get there slowly..turning one stone at a time...! We are building more tools everyday.. #lightning, #Nostr #cashu #NWC and lots of other cool tools.. Happy Monday...!

Finally... One Fintech Company One Crappy App is going to change with #Cashu Bank of America - BoA App JP chase - Chase App CitiBank - CitiBank App Robinhood - Robinhood App This is true with Bitcoin/Crypto companies as well Block - Cash App Strike - Strike App Coinbase - CoinBase App Galoy - Blink App With #Cashu, providers run only mints. There will be 3-4 best UX apps like enuts to access all the mints...! RIP Crappy Apps

Bisq 2.0 and Robosats 0.6 are the newest version in exchanging bitcoin in a non KYC peer to peer exchange. But both are building their own reputation model and chat interface instead of building on top of Nostr... Why?
