Can someone please send me a zap? I'm testing if I can receive ok. I can zap it back to you.

I guess I need technical help with nostr after trying this out for a while. Primal is pretty easy to use, but I don't see everyone on there? I set up Amythest and Alby a while back but Amythest is buggy. Like if I don't use it for a few days I get weird popups and the wallet seems to disconnect or lose the settings I gave it. Is there an easier way for the casual user? Thank you.
What to feel as a bitcoiner right now? It occurs to me that what I feel is survivor's guilt since I wasn't using coldcard. Perhaps some OGs who have experienced a low like this can help with the long-term view.
Save-the-date for the first Golden Gate Bitcoin Conference! A bitcoin-only education and networking event in the SF Bay Area, Nov 6-7 at the College of Marin Kentfield campus. Call for exhibitors, sponsors, and speakers is open:

Took a long break from the book writing for personal travel/vacation. Hoping to kickstart my process again on Monday and stay focused on the book through July and August. I would love to have a draft to give to early readers at that point!
In my long book-writing journey, one of the things I have enjoyed is connecting with at least some non-bitcoin writers and authors. The obstacles and solutions cross over and I get fresh momentum. Having a support community really helps!
These days my daily writing is a lot more like a journal. Reflections on experiences, things on my mind, and not anything intended to be published. And I do this with pen and notebook, not typed. Inevitably, it still ends up being a lot about Bitcoin stuff!
A lot of my thought lately has been on feeling good enough already and not really needing to prove myself with a product or business just bc it seems like I'm supposed to.
Taking small steps to build momentum on my book again! I remembered I have a Scrivener license so I imported my draft (~35,000 words) and started cleaning it up. So much better that trying to manage it with google docs. #writers
Still new to all this. Primal was not loading the feed consistently so now I'm trying Amethyst. Successfuly set up the Alby ln wallet with some effort but now I can zap here too.
