Jamás dejaría bitcoin en los intercambios, es como prestarle tu dinero al banco 🤮

It’s not as hard as people think

Rugs will continue until personal responsibility improves.

Maybe the node was inside us the whole time - become the node, become unruggable

I am become Node, destroyer of banks

👏😮‍💨

Not a needle junkies manhating on? Thou shall not, however the falacy when not a shooter, but oswald 📌

Woke up this morning and saw an article on zerohedge about an executive order that Biden put out last year giving the government power to freeze your money. I never saw this report before today and I was surprised that I didn't even care. Before bitcoin I would have scrambled around panicking trying to do something about it. Instead, I just shrugged and went about my day as usual. Becoming unruggable is good for your mental health.

Change your name to nodebody 👍

This is a strange one... Normally you're given nothing. But here you're being told to talk to police? And specifically Israeli police... My wonder is... Is this person Israeli or is this related to the war on misinformation? I don't know if I believe this post or not tbh. Feels off.

On this topic, I am currenlt ticked off at River where I recently opened an account. My plan was to transfer sats I purchased to my Sparrow wallet. Customer support at River told me I need to have an account there for 3 months before I can "apply" to be allowed to withdraw bitcoin. WTF!? I thought River wasn't full of suits but apparently they are. Thankfully I didn't put a ton of fiat into River while I wait 3 months.

Odell, I hold my assets in #ledger x. I don’t feel 💯 percent peace of mind. What you think? 🤔 Any other options?

If your Bitcoin can be seized by a single act by the state, you’re doing it wrong.

Ledger is closed source and recently implemented features to - supposedly only with your consent - send the private keys off device. I would rather trust Trezor or BitBox02. You might find my project helpful:

WalletScrutiny

Know your wallet like you built it.

Not everyone is a developer. Not everyone has to be.

That means you hold your own keys, so you’re good. However, Ledger doesn’t have the best reputation in the hardware wallet business. If you want to upgrade, you could go for a Coldcard by @Coinkite (old npup) and combine it with Sparrow. @BTC Sessions has great tutorials for this. PS: I’m not @ODELL , just a dude looking to give some advice where needed ;)

Great advice.

there will be no place 2park $hit - except mainnet onchain 😯

Not your keys …

What I tell people is that self custody is the actual point of bitcoin.

Can’t be rugged with OnRamp. Gubment can still rug your ability to use your non KYC stack. Unless we’re all destined to move to El Salvador? Which is a hard ask for those of us with families, communities, churches.

of course you can get rugged by onramp, multisig custodians are better than single sig custodians but they are still trusted third parties that can act maliciously or be pressured by government

Lol what a loser. I wonder why he holds btc in the first place. Could also own a standard shekel account on any israelian bank. NGMI.

Not your keys, not your coins. Imagine having your life savings being dangled in front of you like that.

That's messed up man

UK multisig custodian partner Coincover looks shifty

Hahahaha

I cant stand them, face scanning of multiple angles for the "future " of money? No thanks

Perhaps. But that’s what I’ve been trying to sort out with y’all. Obviously self custody first. But do you/we perceive the attack vectors I’m throwing down as valid? If so, then doesn’t it make sense to, at minimum, have a side pot with a multi sig custodian who is aligned in worldview like OnRamp? At least OnRamp acknowledges the need for multi jurisdictional optionality and has critical mass/scale to get ahead of the onslaught. Not everyone is a single coder bro that can simply bail out to El Salvador. The lack of acknowledgement and seeming unwillingness to beat up some of these very real attack vectors is an indictment of our team’s values or perhaps an indication of a naivety about how ugly it’s gonna get when Rome 2.0 starts to burn. I have yet to hear an intelligent rebuttal from anyone. Ape-ing memes aka virtual picketing (90% of nostr) isn’t an intelligent argument that’s going to create converts with conviction. Losing the normie masses loses the war. Feel me?

Did more recon. It’s not OnRamp for now unfortunately. Some of these young dudes are gonna need to get humbled a bit before old money is going to take em serious. Back to pestering uncle @StevenMcClurg

Meaning...you're right about getting rugged with OnRamp. So then what? MultiSig yourself on ColdCard and take a couple flights? @ODELL
