Nostr newbie. Mining enthusiast. Like to build things with my hands. Lightning node finally set up. LFG! For those in Canada or the USA, a good option to buy self custody Bitcoin is with Bitcoinwell.com. https://bitcoinwell.com/referral/chopstickboy

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Be Thankful for the discounted price of BTC this season. This may be the last Thanksgiving where BTC is under $100K. And good health and success to all the HODLers. image

Here is an idea.. Parenting goals for 2025. Start a Bitcoin fund for each of your children. Goal is to reach 0.01 BTC for each child after a year. Start with $25/week per child. This works out to about $3.57 a day (like the price of coffee in some areas) #BTC4kidschallenge

This is why it can't be more stressed that if you want safety of your savings of your time and energy. A non-custodial exchange is a MUST when buying Bitcoin. To all those affected by the Nobitex hack. Prayers go to you in these difficult times. For those in Canada/USA, non-custodial exchanges like @Bitcoin Well is a safer option to purchase Bitcoin. Sovereignty means self custody. It's more of a responsibility, but your money is truely yours.

@Jeff Booth and @NICO⚡️ thank you so much for this interview. 🙏 Jeff Booth was my orange pill moment with his interview with @nat brunell in understanding that Bitcoin is a deflationary system against inflationary fiat system. He opens my eyes here now by explaining why Bitcoin needs to be used as a money system for it to survive. Spending in Bitcoin will grow adoption to improve decentralization and move/work towards global of hyper-bitcoinization. We can't afford to have a few large players to centralize and continue to feed the fiat system. Don't sell your Bitcoin! But instead use it to buy things that add value to your lives. All prices go down in Bitcoin terms over time. You can't save all your work, time, and energy into Bitcoin forever without spending some Bitcoin to add value to your life. Spend Bitcoin when you need to, but make an effort to spend in Bitcoin over fiat. Global adoption will need to come from the ground up. We need to do this together for Bitcoin to succeed.

Attention Canadians. Pierre Polievre knows sounds money. He knows self custody. He's asking the questions on how to move to a sound money system. More support should be behind Polievre as opposed to any other opposition if a better future for Canada is wanted. Fix the money, fix the world. Thanks to @Simply Bitcoin and @Jeff Booth for an amazing interview.

Week 2 of BTC mining heat from @Toine at 256heat.com. Makes a great garage heater with low noise levels. If all goes well this year, will consider upgrading heating system to the main house too. This is a great use of older model BTC miners for the purpose of space heating solutions. image

Hooray! Self hosting lightning node finally set up! Is it me? Or is this a real steep learning curve?
