the fact that you're not allowed to default on student loans is one of the sickest things our society does to young people

This is specifically designed to create debt slaves for life, and it is 100% created by the government.

If they removed this law tomorrow, no lender in their right mind would ever lend you $100,000 to study liberal arts

We would probably have more doctors and engineers though

TD Bank's plea is an interesting read for anyone who believes that justice has been served in the US banking industry.

If its “historic fine” tells us anything, it's that that crime pays when you're a banker.

Before I started my company the people closest to me told me it was never going to work and I should go to law school.

I started it anyway. It was successful.

When I first bought bitcoin everyone laughed at me.

I bought more. No one laughs anymore.

When I got married my father in law told me I was being too aggressive saving money and I needed to lighten up and enjoy life or the marriage wasn’t going to work.

He got divorced 2 years later, I am still happily married.

After the birth of my second child, my wife had a serious complication and the doctor told us we’d never have more kids.

We had two more. The same doctor delivered them.

The things other people say/believe are almost always about themselves and their own hang ups and insecurities. You can safely ignore them.

It's weird to see external people that are aligned with Nostr's goals and even the overall design to complain about petty bugs or small details -- well, even big issues.

"Oh, I like the idea of Nostr, but it's so bad because I tried a random client and the search button doesn't work, therefore I will assert that Nostr is retarded and will never succeed."

The thing is: to whom are you complaining? Nostr isn't an organization trying to sell you anything, and if you are aligned with the goals then that supposed "Nostr problem" is also your problem so start trying to solve it. Or maybe you have a better alternative?, otherwise the tone of the complaint doesn't make sense.

There are people that think Jews control the world and that they are constantly trying to subvert all the other races. These same people are usually Christian and they seem to overlook the fact that Jesus was Jewish. So are they all trying to subvert you or not? Are they God’s chosen people or not? I don’t get it lmao.

Fwiw, I hate the state of Israel just like I hate all other states. I just think it’s irrational to associate the evils committed by the state of Israel to all Jewish people. Especially when a lot of the best Austrian economists are anti state and anti Israel. All governments do horrible things. All governments are composed of people from the race in which that government resides. Which means that all people of all races in every country do horrible things to other people. Arguing that one race does more evil than another is no different than voting for the lesser of two evils. The final red pill is learning that it’s just individual people hiding behind the title of government who commit evil things on others and use race (or religion) to distract you from that reality. It’s not the whites or the Jews or the immigrants. It’s the state vs you.


We are evaluating running a Nostr relay on IVPN infra (compartmentalized).

It would make sense as relay preference appear to be a function of sufficient trust and privacy guarantees.

Any suggestions for deep-dive documentation on running a relay?

The computer can be used as a tool to liberate and protect people, rather than to control them."

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep.
And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
And God said, Let there be memes.
And God saw the memes, and they were good; and God divided the memes from the darkness.

I collaborated with Sam Callahan to analyze bitcoin’s correlation with global broad money supply.

The result was that it had higher directional correlation to money supply than other asset classes, at 83%.

We also looked at indicators for when bitcoin is more likely to deviate from liquidity. In other words, what’s usually going on in that other 17%. The answer, generally, is that the asset is coming down after major periods of extreme sentiment.

I am convinced that information is the ultimate carrot & stick.

As our consciousness evolves and technology advances, it’s becoming clear that people can be guided simply by the information they consume. We’re like bacteria in a gut - part of a system that seems logical, where we believe our actions are driven by free will, but it’s all an illusion. Now, others can pull our strings by manipulating the information we receive.

This is why privacy and cryptography are essential. You should have the ability to process information privately and control what information you share and how you share it with the world.

The more we technologically advance, the more teachings of cypherpunks will grow in importance. And I look forward to witnessing that future unfolding alongside all of you... as we make progress toward the machine civilization.

Guys who make a move who aren't their dream guy are invisible. Effectively nothing happened. They're complaining that their dream guy didn't make a move.


I published some of my blogs as a Kindle book.

This is a long form article, you can read it in https://habla.news/a/naddr1qvzqqqr4gupzqadlydf3460e333fjkaqwxg7fz82636ew5m36c7hml2xhhsml2y4qqxh5cts946xs6tn943x7mmtzv6lry

I've been writing this blog as a nym for about a year. I like to wear a mask because my real life job is in an area wear most people get most of their information from MSNBC. To most of my co-workers, bitcoin is boiling the oceans, making people sick, and using more energy than the entire shithole country of whatever. Why would I want to use a cryptocurrency that destoys the planet when it only does 7 transactions per second? To them, bitcoin is evil because a noble prize winning economists said so. It is also useless, but used by criminals.

I got tired of hearing about quantum computing and other ridiculous arguments so I began writing about how I use bitcoin over the lightning network everyday. I followed K3tan's guide and set up a blog on a virtual private network. Then I used Yunohost on a raspberry pi until I learned about blogstack. Suddenly, I could host a blog without paying a monthly fee or becoming a Linux Systems Administrator.

I have also started coming out of my shell. I started a meetup and began meeting other hard-core bitcoiners and teaching Coinbasers how to take self-custody, why video games on a blockchain are scams, and how bitcoin can be used as a medium of exchange.


Secure your $58k BTC like it's $580k BTC.


Proof-of-reserves (and liabilities), since It's practically impossible, assume paper bitcoin.

FTX was a darling too.

The price suppression schemes will keep happening till self-custody improves.


Someone recently lost 0.8 BTC after stepping on an option Sparrow probably shouldn't even have exposed.

I've gotten 1,100,000sats of donations in the past week to my OTS calendars. At current fee rates, that's enough to run them for another 6 months.

Currently they make a timestamp about every 5 hours. I could reduce that further, which would have the advantage of higher precision timestamps. But that's more money, so I'll be back here asking for more sooner.

It seems that the community might be willing to fund fees for faster timestamps. What do you think?

In Bitcoin and Nostr, a false dilemma (ake either/or fallacy) often divides people: either adoption must reach millions, or it’s considered a failure. This mindset is like saying a small plant must become a massive tree overnight, or it’s not worth growing at all.

Cypherpunks like Satoshi ignored these extremes. They focused on writing code and solving problems, knowing growth happens step by step. Polarization halts progress—pragmatic solutions nurture it.

Then you can filter your feed using that list as authors OR filter your notifications by them, getting rid of all types of spam.

As I mentioned, there is a non-zero chance Wasabi's systemic address re-use vulnerability will send a mixed output to a previously used change address, that's one reason choosing Wasabi would have been a poor choice. Another is that there is also a non-zero chance that Wasabi's symmetric address reuse vulnerability will include the same address on both the input & output sides of the mix. Additionally, fees paid to Wasabi helped support chain analysis companies; utxos are ground to dust if left to CoinJoin for too long; and now that ZKsnacks' coordinator liquidity has been broken up among several new coordinators, users can enjoy dancing with themselves in shallow liquidity pools that offer no practical anonymity benefits.

Further more, the existence of doxxic change makes no difference when a user is intentionally sending all their outputs to their pre-mix wallet (of all places) and then consolidating them. To even achieve what you've demonstrated the user would have to put in considerable effort to make such a mess of things.

Your example is one of intentionally destructive user behavior and this entire exercise has demonstrated that you are purposefully attempting to misguide people and/or you have little to no grasp on the subject. Despite your inability to identify that example as a blatantly obvious and intentional maneuver to consolidate outputs, you chose to confidently use it as an example to equate the vulnerabilities in one wallet with the deliberate choices made by the user in another wallet. The fact that you have been engaging in tactics such as this for years is disturbing and the fact that you continue to do so after the Samourai Wallet coordinator has been shut down is deranged.

What nostr:npub1az9xj85cmxv8e9j9y80lvqp97crsqdu2fpu3srwthd99qfu9qsgstam8y8 said in the latest Bitcoin.Review pod really reasonated with me

Something along the lines of “if you make hardware wallet UX too easy, people will not grasp the importance of self-custody”

It was using a Coldcard for the first time that I realized that this was serious business.

Make it too seamless and people won’t differentiate between self-custody and holding their wealth in an exchange wallet.

A fantastic chart from Julian Bittel of #RealVision showing Global M2 (with a ten-week lead) and the price of #bitcoin in US dollar terms.

Like me, Julian believes that we are in the final days and weeks of accumulating bitcoin at relatively dirt-cheap prices.

You do you... but I think it is unwise to keep sitting on the sidelines during a global M2 bull market.

As you and I know, #Bitcoin is the Great Absorber of Liquidity.

Here’s an announcement for NOSTR before everyone else:

This November, nostr:npub1f4q60j7fklm7sjzdz4ye42g5r3elnguuxajuch2kx8apulfkx0xqf2a37d and I are leading an excursion through Argentina to kick off the formation of a resilient bitcoiner community.

CITADEL SCOUTS ARGENTINA
October 31-November 17

We have three primary objectives for this adventure:

To enjoy and explore what Argentina has to offer for quality lifestyle, jurisdictional arbitrage, and investment opportunities.

To learn about community growth and find out what’s needed to create a resilient tribe of bitcoiners in this country.

To support and empower local bitcoin education and adoption efforts with brainstorming and strategy sessions.

First, we gather for a taste of city life in Buenos Aires during LABITCONF with fine dining, masterminds, asados, saunas, and poolside sunbathing in a luxury Palermo home.

Next, we head out to the Cordoba countryside to experience the Argentinian ranch life in a massive farmstead cottage.

Finally, we escape to the mountains of Patagonia for all kinds of adventures out of our lakeside villa home base.

To join us, shoot me a direct message for a more in depth pamphlet or go to citadeltheory.com to learn more and apply.

im looking for a video editor and/or a video animator to collab with me on a wide range of Bitcoin stuff i wanna do.

i believe Bitcoin is the best money in human history and both myself and Strike are here to push its adoption forward not only with technology and products but also education and orange pilling.

so far everything i’ve done content wise has just been me on my personal laptop with QuickTime. part of me feels i could make new or even better content to educate and orange pill the masses with folks that have more skills than i do

if you’re passionate about Bitcoin, have related skills, and want to work with me on this, drop me a note at jack@strike.me

much love!

#Tao Te Ching: Chapter 24

He who stands on tiptoe
doesn't stand firm.
He who rushes ahead
doesn't go far.
He who tries to shine
dims his own light.
He who defines himself
can't know who he really is.
He who has power over others
can't empower himself.
He who clings to his work
will create nothing that endures.

If you want to accord with the Tao,
just do your job, then let go.

 nostr:npub10pensatlcfwktnvjjw2dtem38n6rvw8g6fv73h84cuacxn4c28eqyfn34f is a unpaid 100% passthrough volunteer organization.

The whole team genuinely cares about the mission.

We have extremely very diverse opinions and backgrounds and very limited operational resources for the volume of applications.

No application is decided by a single person. We also have committee of also volunteer peers who also opine and vote. Once the committee votes with soft ACKs. We have a minimum of 5 positive votes by the board for approval policy.

Everyone and their applications are considered! But we are not going to fund everything. After careful volunteer time is used for reviews a vote is made.

There are many orgs with different methods.

No one is entitled to be funded. Pro tip, be graceful. Aside from being extremely unprofessional to shit on OpenSats in public, you are shitting on unpaid ppl who are trying to do their best and are not perfect. We simply don't have the time and resources (and shouldn't waste money) on giving each and everyone a very detailed feedback. we are talking about hundreds of applications and a dozen ppl here.

Criticism is very much always welcomed and encouraged. We need to know what we can do better.

If you truly care about improving, send a fucking EMAIL. Bitching in public only hurts the ppl who are doing the work.

The FOSS funding will continue until freedom improves ✌

Is it a sign of stupidity to think everyone else is stupid? I wonder about this a lot. I know a few people that constantly complain about how stupid people are. But I hear their complaints and think they are actually pretty stupid too. I think a lot of people are stupid and the irony is that stupid people think I’m stupid. Maybe this is the point where being overly philosophical is no longer useful, but we’ve all been wrong on something before so how do we know we aren’t the stupid ones? If you think you know something, then everyone else who disagrees with you seems stupid. But they think the same thing about you. And you can’t be right about everything so you will be considered stupid to someone at some point. Are we all just retards? Should we just embrace it? Probably.

We’re the best type of ppl sorry I don’t make the rules 😎


:dogedance:


I'm a long-time nostr enthusiast and i have no idea how to manage any of this outbox model stuff. Is there an easy (or easy-ish) UX planned for this? Can i just use Amethyst and not worry about it, or do i need to put forward a little effort? If it's the latter then what should my efforts be?


So I just got DEBANKED FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE 🥲

They asked me to re-KYC my account, after using it for 3yrs.
Then 2hrs later, they send me THIS email.

"Sorry we can't give you banking services, and we can't tell you why."

Husband sent money there to pay our rent, and now they're telling me they can't send the money to my Brazilian account (even though I've been doing that for months).

So no account AND they're holding the money hostage 🤡

Thank GOD my savings are in Bitcoin.
It's times like this you realise how crazy this world is. https://image.nostr.build/896709b792cfa66c445982cafac19ed01edb951fd9e87dbf180632a37d649901.jpg


Old Nostr DM (NIP-4) integrates four capabilities into a single Nostr key—it serves as an ID, an encryption key, a receiving address, and a sending address.

The encryption key in NIP-4 does not change, so NIP-4 messages lack both forward secrecy and backward secrecy.

Consequently, if the private key is compromised, both historical and future messages can be exposed.

The receiving and sending addresses remain constant, which poses a severe issue for metadata privacy in NIP-4 messages;

Everyone can see who (ID) is sending messages to whom (ID).

Currently, most Nostr apps use NIP-4 for DM functionalities, such as Damus and Primal.

——————————————————————————————————————

New Nostr DM (NIP-17) integrates three capabilities into a single Nostr key—it serves as an ID, an encryption key, and a receiving address.

Kind-17 separates the sending address from the ID, making the sending address random and concealing the sender's real ID, thus improving metadata privacy.

The encryption key in NIP-17 does not change, so NIP-17 messages also lack forward secrecy and backward secrecy. Once the private key is leaked, both historical and future messages will be compromised.

The receiving address remains constant, so there is still a slight issue with metadata privacy in NIP-17 messages; everyone can see who (ID) is receiving messages.

Apps like 0xchat and Amethyst use NIP-17 to implement DM functionalities.

——————————————————————————————————————

In Keychat, the ID, encryption key, receiving address, and sending address are separated.

The encryption key, the receiving address, and the sending address are updated independently and continuously.

Keychat's encryption key is derived using the Signal protocol, and each message uses a unique encryption key, which is deleted after use.

Thus, Keychat messages have both forward secrecy and backward secrecy. Even if an encryption key is compromised, only the current message can be leaked, and historical and future messages remain secure.

Keychat's sending address is randomly generated for each message.

Therefore, external parties do not know the sender's ID.

Keychat's receiving address is derived using the Signal protocol, with almost every message using a unique receiving address.

Thus, external parties do not know the receiver's ID.

——————————————————————————————————————

However, it's important to emphasize that NIP-4 and NIP-17 offer superior multi-device synchronization capabilities because they integrate three capabilities into a single Nostr key—it serves as an ID, an encryption key, and a receiving address.

Nostr is a reflection of the real world, whereas Twitter is like TV


Holy crap, they must have soo much bitcoin


The most underrated perk of #Nostr (specifically the lack of algorithm) is that you are not punished for posting external links.

On X, Instagram, and all other centralized social media platforms, anytime you post a link to ANYWHERE off the site, not only is that post's reach crushed, but future posts are demoted as well, as your entire account gets put on the algo's "naughty list" for directing people off-platform.

Think of how many awesome sites, resources, personal art/blogs etc. across the internet have NOT been shared, as users are bludgeoned into bending the knee to this tunnel-visioned way of communicating.

It's a silent attack on perspective decentralization, and people's ability to share high-signal content by independent creators who've made the personal choice to curate their content in a more sovereign location, apart from any particular algorithmic prison.

#Nostr fixes this.

in love, sweet love, through day and night
though far apart, still fire burns
with every thought, at every turn
in dreams we meet, two shining stars,
eternal light is this love of ours.

Okay, hear me out. I’m looking for some advice.

1. I’ve produced a lot of written content over the last few years about Bitcoin (and also a little bit about psychedelics).
2. Most of it is sitting on single-points-of-failure like Medium, Bitcoin Magazine, Swan.com, Citadel21, etc….
3. I want to put it where it won’t get obliterated if there’s a crackdown on such content or if these individual entities disappear.
4. I’m looking for suggestions on how to use nostr effectively to do that.
4a) I do have a high-powered start9OS machine, but don’t yet run a nostr relay on it, although I am willing to learn how, if that’s the right approach.
4b) I want to know how to accomplish this goal in a way that people can actually easily find the content if they are looking for it, and on this point I don’t have any good ideas.
4c) I’d love to include images if I can inline where they belong in the written articles.
4d) It would be really nice to preserve the few movies I’ve been involved in making this way too.

I’m open to all suggestions and assistance and will try to answer any questions any of you ostriches have for me about this.

Think about it like this.

If you believe bitcoin is going to 2 million.

That’s 32x away from where we are now.

So multiply everything you’re spending in the present by 32 to figure out the true cost of things.

That $20 lunch you had? That could have been a $640 dinner in the future.

The reasonable 30k car you bought? That’s a million dollar super car your future self could have driven.

The 100k downpayment you put on your home? That’s a 3.2 million dollar paid off home.

The 5k international vacation you took last year? That was a 160k baller trip you could have taken later.

Food for thought.

Being nifty


I’ve been off Twitter and all social media except for Nostr for a month now, and the results are hard to argue with.

I’ve started reading real books again (4 this month) and have noticed both my patience and attention increase noticeably. I also feel less angry and anxiety daily, along with being committed to my workout routine.

I found that Nostr has met my social media needs, most importantly, my own ability to self-limit with it. Nostr is a bit ‘boring’ compared to traditional social media because ITS NOT TRYING TO KILL YOU!!!

Controlling your own data isn’t nearly as important in terms of ownership, as it is about allowing that information to be used against you. All of your most intimate thoughts and feelings are data mining by massive corporations specifically to find emotional triggers for you, so they can sell you shit, or force thoughts on to you.

Fuck these people that run these companies that farm our emotions to sell us shit, and to work with corrupt government to censor our speech, sell out dissidents, and destroy our internet.

We are much, much, much more powerful than they will ever be because we don’t need force, corrosion, or permission to run these systems of social connections that they cannot destroy.

My month of social media detox has really lifted the veil from the hate industry complex that are all social media companies today. Stop prostitution your content, thoughts and powers to these shitty companies that enrich the scum of the earth, and empower illegal, unconstitutional and immoral government agencies from their dragnet surveillance.

I’ll make one last tweet explaining this and then nuking my account in the next few weeks. Then I’ll be Nostr only.

There seems to be a zeitgeist of understanding that we have firmly entered the, “then they fight you” phase.

We have one shot to save the internet as a free and open platform for all people everywhere; or to collapse into it become the most powerful propaganda and brainwashing tool ever created.

Now is the time to prepare, because there will not be another shot later.


Hey everybody, NVK is being a dick to me right now


It's a Pi4 with a custom case (can't remember which). It does run StartOS (for testing/development purposes). Production node with core/lnd and all is running on the NUC (as a proxmox VM).

Can't stress enough how stable and easy StartOS is. Even for me as an 'experienced' developer/sysadmin I prefer it over a bare OS like debian for day to day use.

This is a case of bad people getting arrested for bad reasons. The outcome might end up being good for the wider world, if users of Telegram move to something more secure.

All of the nostr apps can be counted. It’s not that big of an effort to threaten every single app.

The same goes for relays.

I think people are delusional to think nostr can’t be effectively shut down.


Nostr and bitcoin are a perfect fit.  Nostr and bitcoin share an identity system via BIP-340.  Nostr could easily be called Taproot-Nostr.  Or Bitcoin-Taproot_Nostr.

The freedom tech aspect is heavily oversold, and doesnt really apply to nostr.  Nostr is simply not attacked because it's too small.

The most likely thing that would happen if someone uses nostr as freedom tech is they have signed undeletable receipts of doing things that they can get prosecuted for.

99.99% of users dont have the OP SEC to use nostr for freedom, and will simply get rekt in the process.  Let's not see our frens end up in a bad place because we over promise things that nostr is not.

-Treat the arrest of the Telegram CEO as an emergency.

-Advocate for his freedom and for all freedom tech providers.

-Support and build things that function without a CEO, like some aspects of Nostr. When authoritarian Europe or the US arrests you, be able to say, “I literally can’t control it, it’s already out there, and we are legion.”

-Tell me and others, as capital providers, how to accelerate this.


The arrest of Telegram founder, presumably for refusing to censor content, is the biggest signal that what we're doing here on #Nostr is so important to the future of humanity it's almost immeasurable. Let's keep up the good fight #Nostriches and not worry too much about MAUs, because where we're going, it's a fight for our freedom.

TAKERS AND GIVERS

There are takers and there are givers
some give love some give shivers
some spread warmth like summer light
some cast chills as winter’s night.

In this world of give and take
we choose the paths we want to make:
to heal or harm to build or break
to lift up hearts or make them ache.

So be a giver not a taker
live with honor not as faker
for in giving love will grow
and hearts will bloom before you know.

Let kindness be the path you tread
with every word let love be spread
caring lifts the spirit high
and soothes each heart that pains and cries.

Seek to sow with gentle hands
the seeds of love that ease all pangs
for in this dance of life you’ll find
the joy of giving frees the mind.

An update on *liquidity* flows...

OBSERVATION #1: US NET LIQUIDITY (top half of chart) continues to be generally rangebound (chopping sideways: crab-like) since all the way back in 2021!

OPINION #1: US-based risk assets tend to follow US net liquidity over time. Based on this data, I would continue to expect choppy sideways (crab-like) price action for US mid cap, small cap, and micro cap stocks until the trend changes. -- If these equities make overly bearish or overly bullish moves in the short-term, one could consider making a short-term contrarian trade. 🦀

OBSERVATION #2: GLOBAL M2 MONEY SUPPLY (bottom half of chart) has officially broken out to the upside of its three-year choppy sideways range, and is resuming its longer term trend ever up-and-to-the-right. This longer term trend will continue until the dollar dies (decades from now).

OPINION #2: In the near-term, this resumption of increasing global M2 money supply is bullish for global assets... currently including megacap technology stocks and, of course, bitcoin. Based on past precedent, I continue to expect weak bitcoin price action throughout the month of August, giving HODLers a beautiful opportunity to stack relatively cheap sats in the setting of rising global M2. -- I do not believe this bargain will go unnoticed for much longer, with the next major bitcoin bull market beginning sometime between September and December of 2024, and probably lasting until 4Q of 2025.

Hope this helps. Cheers #nostr friends.

#Tao Te Ching: Chapter 81

True words aren't eloquent;
eloquent words aren't true.
Wise men don't need to prove their point;
men who need to prove their point aren't wise.

The Master has no possessions.
The more he does for others,
the happier he is.
The more he gives to others,
the wealthier he is.

The Tao nourishes by not forcing.
By not dominating, the Master leads.


I can’t believe I forgot about these guys again. Even had them on the show to talk about CoinOS and it was the first wallet I ever used that integrated Liquid, Lightning, and Onchain. In fact, it’s how I got my very first L-BTC.

It has Lightning address and even Nostr pubkey by default. Pretty dope. Just registered to see the whole flow. If you save it to home screen as a web app it’s super simple flow. This is how simple a wallet should always be, love the extremely minimal design. nostr:note1zt4tjhzfsvnyryq6w5ac0rx3huw78tgccz7pphnd8v00etrua9xqzw95dt

The sad truth is that most people have spent their entire lives being conditioned to simply obey, and to resist thinking.

Doesn’t matter what or who it is: stoplights, signs, announcements, strangers, someone ‘official’ looking, or just another human; most people just want someone or something to listen to so they don’t have to take responsibility to think for themselves. Thinking demands responsibility, the capacity to be correct or incorrect, the existential angst of what it means to decide on the nature of things, and what it means if you are right or wrong.

We have been trained most of our lives to eschew this responsibility and allow for others to tell us ‘what is right’ without considering for a moment if these are people we should listen to, or if they even have the cognitive capacity to actually think, rather than just do what they are told.

Back in 2018 my wife used to work in the hospital.

There was this male nurse who would try and hit on her.

One of the other nurses had told him I was a Bitcoiner I guess and when the price collapsed down to 3k, he told my wife “if I was your husband I would have sold”.

I always found it funny.

Not only did this guy want to be me, but in his mind he was a better version of me than me lol 😂

Meanwhile in real life I have the girl and the coins.

I retired my wife later that year.

He still works in the hospital.

IF YOUR CONTENT PROVIDES UNIQUE VALUE THEN YOU ARE THE PRODUCT OF THE CENTRALIZED PLATFORMS YOU POST ON.

YOU PERPETUATE AND REINFORCE THEIR PREDATORY BUSINESS MODELS.

IF YOU MAKE THAT CONTENT EXCLUSIVE TO NOSTR YOU ARE A TANGIBLE PART OF THE SOLUTION.


Thinking about locking 1 BTC in my nsec as a proof of key safety. If somebody gets my key, they can steal the 1BTC. And if they do, I will know my key has leaked.

On Nostr, unless you monitor your own posts VERY closely, you never know if your key has leaked or not. That creates lots of liabilities for businesses and some risks for users. Adding a value that is appropriate to the size of the account could work as attack notifier. And business might even be able to insure that amount with cyber insurance. 🤔


When I see a intellectual people NOT understand Bitcoin, what is often preventing them from “getting it”, is a deeply held, core belief that the world is spiraling out of control and can’t get better.  Because of this pessimistic conviction, it’s almost like it’s impossible for them to wrap their head around it.  It’s a very strange yet persistent theme.

With Pacific Bitcoin canceled this year and many people having existing plans to come to socal this October, I wonder who is interested in joining a (~200 person) Citadel Theory Summit event at a waterfront Mission Bay venue in San Diego.

Here’s a basic description of the event:

nostr:npub1rm95vgkrhm4hwj0f4vr8jw95j3w30tj8h9lfmmzj89hlrkwrtv4sqfqh3k Summit
Building Strong Bitcoiner Communities
October 17-18, 2024 (schedule TBD)
San Diego, California

Two days of in-depth exploration into Citadel Theory, a movement focused on creating resilient and self-sufficient interconnected Bitcoiner communities. Engage with leading thinkers and practitioners through theory talks, panel discussions, and practical skill workshops covering a wide range of topics essential for building a robust and sovereign lifestyle.

Topics Include:
•Bitcoin and digital sovereignty
•NOSTR
•Homesteading and self reliance
•Strategic Relocation
•Birth tourism
•Flag theory
•Jurisdictional arbitrage
•Bio Harmonization
•Animal based diets
•Lifestyle design
•Social dynamics
•Family dynamics
•Entrepreneurship
•Leadership
•Business Management Basics
•Breathwork
•First Aid
•Self Defense
•Sailing and boating
•Mobility training

The goal of this event is to equip you with the knowledge and skills to build and sustain a strong, self-sufficient community.

Pricing would start at $200 for the first 21 people to commit.
If i get a core commitment of 21 people commenting below, I’ll book the venue and release the registration page on CitadelTheory.com.

Share this post with anyone you think might be interested! Hopefully see you in San Diego.

Sometimes tradfi people tell me that bitcoin is "captured" now that there are ETFs and such.

When that happens, I usually tell them to give me a lightning address and I'll send them some anon sats. None of them has ever taken me up on that offer. I gave this dude an opportunity for 1,234,567 sats or like $700 and he went dark.

I don't think they know how to use wallets. They are only think-bois.

Dumb take.

There are a bunch of other attack surface those wallets don't protect you against and there are lots of trade offs.

Second under Mitigations; COLDCARD has always done RFC6979 signatures. That with repro builds are perfectly adequate. jade requires pin servers to be secure that is a huge trade off. Bitbox requires usb, huge trade off.

Wow 50k! This is officially no longer a dip for ants. This could turn out to be a dip for housecats or chihuahuas.


This stuff can take a while to shake out and can go a lot lower, but I’m going to buy a tranche of coin here.


Japan and Korean stock markets hitting circuit breakers. Bitcoin tapping below $54k.

Basically it’s goblin-land in terms of western liquidity on a Sunday night as eastern stuff blows up.

I get it it's summer hotter than usual now vs other times during the year.

Pro tip: Tomorrow's battles are won tonight with rib-eye steak and some water.

Have a great night.

An issue with Universal Basic Income that I haven't seen addressed is that it would become an annuity that people will find ways to borrow and spend against.

Thus degenerate or desperate recipients will just make purchases today against their "credit line" of future annuity payments. Not sure how you'd prevent this in practice.
