Buen artículo, Roland. 👏 Es fundamental recordar que la verdadera resistencia a la censura en Nostr no es automática, sino que depende de nuestra responsabilidad como usuarios de elegir los relays adecuados y gestionar nuestras propias llaves. ¡Gracias por compartir estos consejos!

Walked to the gym to get the blood pumping and just finished a solid session. Discipline doesn't take a day off, and neither does the mission to build a better financial future. I've clocked my steps to get here, and now the gym app is showing the real effort. Every rep is a step closer to a sharper mind—the kind needed to tackle the "Nuts and Bolts" of the L3 revolution. 🧱🍊 image It’s a fresh morning here in the Netherlands, and I’m heading back to the office with maximum energy. image Who else is hitting their goals today? Let's stack those sats and those gains! 💪⚡️ #ProofOfWork #Discipline #Netherlands #sMiles #Bitcoin #MorningRoutine #GymLife #SimonAcademy #HealthyMind

It's exciting to see the eCash Renaissance moving into the application layer! 🥜⚡️ YakiHonne integrating native eCash features is a massive step for the "Social Payment Layer" (L3) I’ve been discussing. Private, instant, and seamless sats for the Nostr ecosystem—this is how we scale to 8 billion. Great work @YakiHonne! View quoted note →

I’ve been digging back into an interesting project from 2023: the Catawba Indian Nation in the Carolinas and their bid to create a Bitcoin-friendly "Digital Economic Zone" (CDEZ). image Their goal was ambitious—to build a jurisdiction tailored for FinTech banks, DAOs, and digital assets, effectively creating a "Ditch Delaware" alternative right on sovereign tribal land. Looking at their current site, they are still offering LLC and DAO incorporations with a regulatory framework designed to move at the "speed of innovation". Question for the #Nostr community: Does anyone have boots-on-the-ground info or recent experience with the CDEZ? Is it gaining traction among Bitcoin companies, or is it still in the "early pioneer" phase? With the eCash Renaissance and the rise of "Guardians" we’ve been discussing, these kinds of sovereign zones could be the perfect "Nuts and Bolts" infrastructure we need for true hyperbitcoinization. 🧱🍊 #Bitcoin #Nostr #CatawbaDigitalZone #Sovereignty #Jurisdiction #PlebChain #SimonConsulting #FinTech

Fresh off my morning gym session and fueled by a weekend of inspiration, I’m officially back at the desk. This is where the deep work on the future of Bitcoin compliance takes place. 🏛️🍊 image To my fellow Plebs, builders, and professionals in the area: the door is open! If you want to kick off the week by talking Bitcoin, eCash, or the "Nuts and Bolts" of the L3 revolution, come by for a cup of coffee. You can find our exact location on BTCMap.org—and yes, we absolutely accept #Bitcoin here (wink wink). 😉 Let’s build a more sovereign future, one conversation at a time. #Bitcoin #PlebChain #SimonConsulting #BTCMap #ProofOfWork #Netherlands #StackingSats #CoffeeAndBitcoin

I’ll admit it: I joined Snapchat yesterday. Yes, it’s a centralized giant, but when your kids are there and want to show you the "magic" of photo filters, you follow the fun. It started with a long-running joke in our house. I’m always telling my kids they need to do their chores because "no dwarfs come to clean the house at night while everyone sleeps." Well, being an early bird, I cleaned the house yesterday before anyone was up. When one of my daughters woke up, I told her the cleaning dwarfs had finally arrived. Her immediate reaction? "Dad, let’s take a picture with the dwarf filter and send it to Mom to prove they exist!" 😂📸 image It was a great moment, but it got me thinking: When will we see native filters in Nostr apps? We are building the most advanced social protocol in history, but sometimes we just want to look like cleaning dwarfs to make our families laugh. Does a Nostr client already support this, or are we still waiting for a dev to "Orange Pill" the Snapchat experience? 🍊💊 If you know a client that's leading the way in media fun, tag them below!

I’ve seen some bold moves in the Bitcoinverse, but this one takes the cake. Just spotted an account on Nostr— @Phoenix Wallet —trying to sell its private keys for a cool 1 #Bitcoin. image The funny part? Generating a new nsec and npub is completely free. But even funnier? This account actually has nearly 300 followers despite having zero notes! It’s the ultimate proof that many people follow a name without even checking if there’s a human (or any content) behind it. Gotta give it to them for trying to monetize the "Follower FOMO." That is some high-level optimism right there! 🚀 Maybe they think those 292 silent followers are worth 100 million sats? Either way, it’s a great reminder that on Nostr, you don't need to buy your seat at the table—you just generate it. 🛠️⚡️ Stay humble, stack sats, and maybe... just check the "Notes" tab before you hit follow? 😉 #Nostr #Bitcoin #PlebChain #ProofOfAudacity #StayHumble #Sovereignty

I’m on a mission to Orange Pill the world, and I’ve found another secret weapon: the Satsman app. It is the world's first gamified sats-earning platform, and I’ve been putting it to the test for 3 weeks now. The results? I’ve already earned thousands of sats by spending just a couple of minutes a day on their educational "missions." 📚🍊 Why you should join my "Army": Daily Missions: Quick, fun tasks that teach you the "Nuts and Bolts" of Bitcoin while rewarding you with real satoshis. Streak Bonuses: Once you hit a certain daily streak, the rewards multiply. I haven't missed a day yet! Real Payouts: Once you hit the threshold, you can withdraw directly to any Lightning wallet. It’s that easy. I’m looking for new recruits to join my squad. If you want to learn about the Bitcoinverse and get paid for it, this is the way. 🔥 Complete daily missions, build your army, and stack sats! Want to join? 👉 Let's orange pill the world, one mission at a time. Who’s in? 🪖🧤 #Satsman #Bitcoin #OrangePill #StackingSats #PlebChain #SimonAcademy #LearnAndEarn #LightningNetwork

Just got back from the morning session. The round trip to the gym clocked in at 4,099 steps (2.26km), plus a high-intensity training session to wake up the system. image It is still early here in the Netherlands, but the blood is pumping and the energy levels are locked in. There is no better way to clear the mental fog before diving into complex regulatory frameworks and eCash architecture. 🧱🍊 When you start the day with physical discipline, the intellectual heavy lifting feels light. I’m fueled up and ready to hit the desk for the @Simon Consulting and @Simon Academy launches today. How are you starting your Monday? Are you stacking steps, stacking weights or stacking sats (or all of the above) yet? #ProofOfWork #Discipline #Netherlands #sMiles #Bitcoin #MorningRoutine #GymLife #SimonAcademy #HealthyMind

GM ☕️👟 Starting the week with a full heart and a clear focus. Yesterday was a special one—I took the family to watch the Ajax Vrouwen. My youngest daughter, who just started her own football journey this season, got to walk onto the pitch alongside the pro players for her "TV moment"! 🏟️⚽️ She was joined by six of her teammates, and seeing that spark of inspiration in their eyes was a powerful reminder of why we build: to create a world where the next generation can dream big and have the tools to achieve it. Now, time to maintain the discipline. Heading out for the morning walk to hit those sMiles steps, followed by a solid gym session. 🏋️‍♂️💪 A healthy body fuels a sharp mind—ready to dive back into the "Nuts and Bolts" of the Bitcoinverse later today. Let's make it a productive week! #GM #PlebChain #AjaxVrouwen #FamilyFirst #ProofOfWalk #StackingSats #Bitcoin #SimonAcademy #Discipline
