I'm sick of dealing with Nostr apps. I just don't have the energy to keep fucking with broken stuff. I'm stepping away for a while. I hope it improves and wish everyone the best. Peace and love. If anyone is interested in keeping in touch, Signal: matt17.76

Welcome to the shit show. Shoutout to everyone who lives such that they look poor as shit 💪 View quoted note →

Is anyone thinking about ways to repurpose ColdCard hardware? I don't mean for security of Bitcoin. I think that ship has sailed, even if they aren't actually totally useless at that. So that aside, other uses.

One of my biggest issues with Bitkey is that if my phone and Bitkey device are destroyed in a house fire (who isnt keeping both at home, realistically?), I'm basically at the mercy of some emergency contact, if I set them up. I'm relying on these people to not get new phones or even understand the importance of what I'm asking of them. I just don't see the safety here. Maybe most people are storing their phone and Bitkey device separately (in ways they won't degrade or break) but I'm skeptical. Is it better than ColdCard was? Probably. But my fear is that all the podcasts are just doing the same shit all over again in a slightly different way. Bitkey! It's the best! It's the safest! Maybe this is fine for low sat holdings but I think Luke Broyles made some good points in his recent custody video.

I love my wife very much. She's such a good woman. She doesn't even know my npub and will probably never see this.
