 The amount of people on here who live totally doxxed lives while posting pictures of how many sats they have in their wallets boggles my mind. Not going to lie, I've randomly gathered data on some of you to see if I could pinpoint you exact address. If I, with no ill intentions, can find you, think of all the people who don't love Jesus who could be potentially planning to come pay you a visit.

 It helps that someone with the same name takes up the vast majority of the seo in your state, but I eventually got a confirm match from your hario mug and your website. I stopped there but will be buying soon! 😉

 The first-ever webcam was set up at Cambridge University to monitor a coffee pot so people wouldn’t waste a trip to the break room for an empty pot. Thank coffee for the birth of modern video surveillance😳 https://image.nostr.build/3944400d237b6b55a0246fe51f00ac009323177aae5111f1f34f5d09e88ef8cd.jpg

 It sucks cause you want to be real and be able to market your stuff on here without fear, but what happens when someone decides you're an easy target and that with enough pressure or blackmail, they could extract from you your stack? I imagine nostr is a honey pot for terrible people who want to free us of our burdens.

 yeah.  I do hear you.  
It’s unfortunate that we do have to think that way.  There are shit people wherever we go, right.  

I remember going to NYC for the first time by myself when I was 19yrs old. 
I was super worried about getting pick pocketed.  Same thing when I was 24 and went to Paris. 

Regarding safeguarding one’s Bitcoin stack.  Fk. I don’t have enough Bitcoin that I’m even worth coming after.  

How much Bitcoin is life in prison worth?  How much Bitcoin is getting killed worth? How much #Bitcoin is having to go off the grid looking over your shoulder for the rest of your life worth?  Fk. I don’t know. 

I guess keeping your HODL stack in cold storage with a long time lock on changing the receiving wallet address, and ensure it's secured with a multi-signature setup. 🤷🏻‍♂️

 Might not be worth alot now, but if it goes to $100mil...
Its not like an atm or bank account where your picture will be sent to law enforcement, and there is no bank to return your transaction so the risk off is different. HOWEVER, a good security system and plenty home artillery in a state that doesn't penalize you for shooting someone in the face for causing you to "feel treatened" are great deterents lol. I suspect the pickings would be significantly better in countries that have already confiscated guns.
