Found a public journal at this coffee shop I went to in Nashville. Had to leave a reminder.

Maybe I’m late to the game and I’ve been walking around with blinders since 2020, but it’s a weird feeling to know almost everything was a lie up until that point starting from a young age. Why did it take me 40+ years to figure this out? Santa, Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy: Lies Religions around the world: Lies Politicians justifying their actions: Lies COVID: Lies Financial System and Fiat: Lies AI Videos and social media: Lies It’s sad to know the only truth I know right now is how many Bitcoin exist and how many I own.

This was an awesome experience. Paid for coffee today in Bitcoin at my local coffee shop that’s using Square terminal. I sent US Dollars from Strike over the Lightning network. As local merchants pop up on my “pay with bitcoin” CashApp map, I’m buying whatever they’re selling even if I don’t need it just to support them. Nice work @jack @jack mallers and the rest of the team. 💪

Can anyone recommend a utility to wipe a laptop with an SSD? In the past I’ve used DBAN, however the individual use doesn’t work on SSD. It looks like they link you over to Blancco for enterprise use when you need SSD. Anyone have recommendations? Thanks!

BitKey’s social recovery feature offers a nice solution for backing up your private keys in a Multisig wallet. If you’re not a Bitkey customer, you could recreate a similar setup using something like PGP. Simply encrypt the private keys locally using a friend’s public key, and upload it to your preferred cloud storage. That way, if you ever lose access to your private keys locally (Think natural disaster) you could decrypt the version you stored in the cloud using their private keys. I’d also recommend not having all your private keys encrypted by the same trusted contact. Has anyone tried this? https://bitkey.build/content/files/2023/11/Bitkey-Recovery-Features.pdf

I asked ChatGPT to estimate the size of the Bitcoin network to AWS’ global computational power. Wow “The Bitcoin network is roughly 65,300 times more computationally powerful than AWS, if we compare Bitcoin’s hash rate to AWS’s general-purpose computational capacity
