 LISTENING TO SHINOBI ON RHR

KINDA HILARIOUS JUST HOW BRUTALLY WRONG HE IS ABOUT NOSTR AND HOW IT SCALES 
 Is Shinobi even on Nostr? 
 who the hell is shinobi?? 
 Is this https://bitcoinmagazine.com/authors/shinobi or any of these https://www.thecollector.com/shinobi-ninjas-japan/, who knows 🤷‍♂️ 
 I only know of the computer game:) 
 A very opinionated legend with excellent bitcoin takes 
 He's wrong about so many things it's hard to keep track 
 Pura vida 
 II this the guy who used to be on with peter McCormack and had all the price predictions? 
 Shinobi is wrong about most things he spews 
 I haven't listened to the pod yet, but he did push my article through for publishing. 

Grateful for that 🙏 https://bitcoinmagazine.com/culture/why-i-am-already-a-nostr-maximalist

 
 He's too scared to scream at us here. 
 He loves to listen to his own voice. Muted him and tuned him out a couple years ago. 
 I hear about Shinobi from @TheGuySwann #BitcoinAudible. He reads his articles about #Bitcoin and #Lightning. Do you guys think his technical opinions about this two topics also flawed? Because when you are not too technical yourself you need to trust someone at some point. For example I feel like I can trust @ODELL when it comes to his moral compass. 

This reminded me, the other day @LynAlden was saying in #WhatBitcoinDid to @petermccormack that pure self custody is a platonic ideal so we all need to trust someone at some point with something. 
 It's fine to trust Odell but that doesn't mean he is right any more than Shinobi is wrong. So far Nostr hasn't gained any users beyond some bitcoiners & despite Odell regularly saying Nostr will be the standard it won't be if its just a sub-set of bitcoiners using it. 
 He does obscene threesomes with Peter Todd and Giacommo behind the dumpsters at Bitcoin conferences. 
 RHR? 
 @RabbitHoleRecap 

weekly podcast with @MartyBent and @ODELL  
 Thought exactly the same 
 Wrong takes are a part of the ecosystem.  Shinobi happily supplies them for us. LOL! 
 I had a really hard time listening to the criticism he brought up. He had no facts or technical reason, all just opinions.

 been insulting him in DMs all day, will force fees him the bitcoin review EP later today 😂 
 it was hard to watch 
 I know a Shinobi but I'd assume it's not the same Shinobi.. but it would be hilarious if it was. Could I get a link to what you are talking about about? Would love to hear his take. 
 but calling the ordinals people "the JPG morons" was still hilarious
