Hey there, I’m a retired special effects tech and now a BTC maximalist. I’m a freedom fighter with more than 45 years experience of questioning authority; sometimes with success, sometimes not. Know yer limits. #introductions

Interesting, where did you work in special effects - in the ad industry or film industry? I'm a finance / business development guy myself but know lots of people from your former world. Welcome to Nostr - i'm new here as well 😃

Just download Wallet of Satoshi from the app store: https://apps.apple.com/au/app/wallet-of-satoshi/id1438599608 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.livingroomofsatoshi.wallet To receive bitcoin, open the app and click Receive https://nostr.build/i/8c001704a8ff18663cf3d63ae9be03a9a9bb149b1cff2ebc344ac2a43c9b3f4b.jpg Then, click the lightning address. https://nostr.build/i/df8389ff20d1b4019d95bb7213f7023a13ffccf950d4218ab5c3d96e255afbfb.jpg This should copy the address. Go to your Nostr profile and paste it where it asks for a lightning address. Now, people can send you some bitcoin ⚡️. Sadly, this wallet is not available in the USA due to regulatory restrictions and the fact the current USA adminstration hates freedom. If you're in the USA, consider using the nostr:nprofile1qqs9xtvrphl7p8qnua0gk9zusft33lqjkqqr7cwkr6g8wusu0lle8jcpp3mhxue69uhkyunz9e5k7qg6waehxw309a3kzcmgv5ejuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgtmkxyq32amnwvaz7tm9v3jkutnwdaehgu3wd3skueq4089x0 mobile nostr app it has a wallet built in or try GetAlby or the Zeus wallet instead. Zeus wallet is actually self custodial meaning you custody the funds the others may be easier but come at the cost of someone else custodying your funds
