 No one seems to want to touch this one huh…? I wonder why…? nostr:note1lj3zremmgsnjv8jy3xe425ke6q64xvlz5jv4amhz23chfxdp6gssfckunh 
 Setting Ross Ulbricht free from prison as well as all the other supposed wrongfully incarcerated persons is all one conversation…isn’t it? 

Why doesn’t the #FreeRoss community join forces with all the other organizations that have long been advocating for wrongfully incarcerated persons in an effort to gain traction?

Your thoughts…

 This article by @L0laL33tz is interesting. 

According to L0laL33tz The SEC (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission) expands their definition of what an exchange is to be inclusive of:

"systems that bring together buyers and sellers of securities that offer the use of non-firm trading interest and provide another type of non-discretionary method (i.e., communication protocols). The proposed amendments would require these systems to register as national securities exchanges or as broker-dealers and comply with Regulation [Alternative Trading Systems] ATS."

@L0laL33tz, please site where this quote is taken from.

 Diligent research has also gone out the window. 

A two second Google search often times becomes ones base of thought as well as their cornerstone of perspective. Pretty abysmal.

 The new way to get popular and monetize on social media:

1. Talk about politics
2. Post pictures of yourself with barely any clothes on 
3. Talk about Bitcoin 
4. Signal that you’re a meat eater 
5. Talk about race 
 Moment of vulnerability here, wondering if anyone has had a similar experience before.

 Ben, I appreciate the work you do in relation to Bitcoin. However, this incident that you’ve described here on #nostr should have remained private in my opinion. There was no need to make a public apology. 

It’s been my observation that those that make these type of public apologies have some sort of public figure identity that is either monetized, or are in some sort of public safety or trust position where their status in the “court of public opinion” needs to remain healthy. You may fit into one of the categories I’ve just described. Acknowledging what I’ve stated, one may also then conclude that your public apology will inevitably lead to one questioning the sincerity of your apology. Many have seen this script before, which is why I believe this incident should have remained private between you and that family you wronged. 

We all make mistakes. You allowed your feelings/emotions override your self control. We all should acknowledge our shortcomings, be humble, and make those we break down whole again as best we can. No one else needed to know about this incident outside of your family, the family of that child you wronged and the eyewitnesses. 

Lastly to answer your question, I’ve never done something similar to a child, but I have done things where I acted out of sheer emotion. I’ve learned from it and I consider myself better off because of the experience. 

Keep moving forward, keep growing, don’t allow certain life experiences you wish you would have acted differently in prevent or slow your progression towards your goals.

 In the Bitcoin world, there is no room for cheating or sabotage - everyone is treated equally, and no one can change that. 
 Besides this, the network produces all types of content that should be looked at more critically by responsible parents. 

Parents may want to look into and  introduce their children to The Tuttle Twins books and cartoon. 

Adults and children can learn a lot of important things not taught in public or private schools.

 Stop crying about social media platforms that censor your “voice/content”. Just stop using the platform. #nostr 
 In the USA Social Security is a scam. Don’t trust, verify. 

Save your time/value in bitcoin. It’s the only #HardMoney 
 “If you know anything about making large payments over Lightning, sometimes payment failures occur and need to be retried a few times. A challenge for MOD Bikes has been user error, as a couple of attempted purchases failed from customers using Muun (which is not a real LN wallet) and CashApp (which has amount limits).”

Could you talk a little about @CashApp and the limits on lightning limits please. What limits did you experience?
