Thanks! I didn’t know I had viewers that were on Nostr 😀 .


You don’t want to know.
Bought and sold in 2018. The volatility shook me out of the market.

Then I bought high in 2022 and watched it dwindle down and eventually forgot about it.

(Basically fomo:ed into the market with know knowledge or conviction two times.)

Then I fell deep down the rabbit hole in January this year and have been spending the last 8 month educating myself day and night. + stacking

We all get Bitcoin at the price we deserve.

Found an old journal entry from 2015.

“I have almost fully pulled out of the stock market as it seems to be priced too high. I’m looking into #bitcoin as a potential savings solution.”

I never bought any coins. I guess “we all get Bitcoin at the price we deserve. 😂

The plan is to quit tobacco forever l

I love stacking and if I can tie my commitment to quitting tobacco to stacking sats then I believe my likelihood of success increases.


Day 6 of “Day 6 instead of tobacco”

Failed miserably last Friday. A coworker offered me some Swedish snus (tobacco pouches) and my ingrained and automatic response was to take one. Afterwards, I rationalized that I might as well buy a box for myself…. “It was Friday after all”.

Well, i knew these things would happen. I threw away much tobacco Saturday morning and came up with a plan for how to handle these situation in the future.

Today I put two days of saving from not doing tobacco on Saturday and Sunday and it bought me 13873 #sats

#bitcoin #plebchain #coffeechain https://image.nostr.build/9f74bded424bb03c91050db9ef53fc5e73ecc670044cd7d298f3914f9397098b.jpg


I think I’ve underestimated the egalitarian aspect of bitcoin.

For instance, when you own real estate and the price goes up you can cheer with other house owners. While those who are saving up to buy a home feel see the goal post move away from them.

In bitcoin, anyone can join the team at any price, and we can cheer together.

🙏 thanks for the support!


Impressive! Gives me hope


GM!

Day 3: “Buying Sats instead of tobacco”.

Note:
My wife said I have a more immature emotional control than my kids. Yes, I have been acting like a dick and get angered easily these days. (And I’m still taking nicotine pills to help keeping me sane.. yikes..😳)

Hopefully it gets better soon…stacked a few sats yesterday.

I know… I quite for 5 years… still fell back and now I’ve been doing nicotine for another 3 years. The poison is strong. Thanks for the support!


GM!

Quit tobacco yesterday and I’m putting all the money I save from that decision into Sats.

Stacking Sats will keep me motivated through the withdrawal period.

Haha! Wish me luck 🍀

Haha!! Good point!


Any #zappathon madness happening here at the halving?

I’ve stacked memes!!

#bitcoin


This is my first. I had some sats in 2018 but I didn’t know what I was doing and sold because I couldn’t take the volatility. Basically lacked understanding, and hence sold everything. This will be my first halving. Will hodl.


Class of 2017

How many #Bitcoin  Halvings have you been through as a Hodler?!

Welcome! Nice to find another Swede on here 🇸🇪

Great book! #bookstr


Not yet! I started to look into setting it up, but was interrupted by the kids and never got back to it.

Only thing I know is that you need to buy it directly from the manufacturer to minimize the chance of getting a device that’s been tampered with


It’s not too late to get some


Haha, thanks for the zaps. I payed them forwarded them to my son’s lighting wallet. ⚡ 😂

Thank you! I’ll keep that in mind as my stack grows.

Thanks for the thorough explaination. I’m pretty new to bitcoin and eager to learn. I am amazed that the transparency of the protocol. It allows for More facts, less speculation.

Thanks!


Where do you get these numbers? Is the amount of available supply on exchanges this transparent?


Books + bitcoin indeed!


I’m expecting to make mistakes. That’s a part of this learning process.

I don’t have my satoshis on an exchange, but in a hot self custody wallet.

It’s Time for me to move some of it to cold storage.

Thanks for cheering me on. I’m exploring the unknown. 🌲


Thanks! Last time I asked I was recommended a Ledger. I expected to not to “get it right” the first time as there is a learning curve to everything Bitcoin.

What’s the main reason you don’t recommend Ledger?


You say that I have failed already?

Where do I find bitcoin only, open source wallets?


GM!

I’m leveling up my #bitcoin game and got myself my first hardware wallet.

What’s some pitfalls and cautions to consider?

I know this community are the right people to ask.

I bought it directly from the manufacturer which seems to be rule nr. 1 for hardware wallets.

I have 47 Sats in my lighting wallet that some random soul sent me. Not much haha, but maybe enough to participate an send some love ⚡ for shits and giggles.

Dear diary.

Today I installed a Lighting Wallet on my 9 year old son’s phone. I #zapped him his first Sats. Sats that I originally got from the #nostr community. ❤

I’m now experimenting with paying his weekly allowance in Sats. He can then trade me for fiat when he wants to buy something. 💰

I’ll let you know how it works out, but it seems simpler than setting up a traditional bank card for the little man. + he will learn how to navigate the future. 💳

A week back or so I could see the amount of #zaps a post got here on #nostr. Now I can’t.

I’m using the  #damus app. Have something changed.

Anyway, good morning. Enjoy your coffee, and stack a few sats today. It’s Saturday after all, and spring is coming. At least in Sweden 🇸🇪.

Here’s a Zap ⚡


Hi Jessica! 👋🏻


Hello and welcome!


Only once…


Yes, just bought new sats today. There was a sale going on because  the CEO of Bitcoin had decided to lower the price temporarily 😉


Oh! I forgot the most important point:

5. The state wants to know about your coins. This legitimize their value
And that they know Bitcoin is serious business.


GM!

Some updates on the Bitcoin sentiment in Swedish mainstream media.

It’s time to declare taxes and crypto is being looked at extra closely this year from a state side of things.

Lessons from reading the articles:

1. People on the streets were asked about taxes and crypto. No one understood the questions or had any holdings.

2. No differentiation is made between Bitcoin and shitcoins in the articles. Suggesting low understanding.

3. Focus on the negative. The news highlight that dictatorial states try to come up with their own crypto currencies.

4. Risks and scams is the focus. No mention of any positive traits of Bitcoin (absolute scarcity, empowering the unbanked etc..)

TLDR; It’s still early. Confusion reigns. Stay humble and stack sats. https://image.nostr.build/76d39a8a90ebab9484fb35be423f0de4a132def4c3e99e4f8af1c6881e28cf1f.jpg https://image.nostr.build/d4eef9c0d9041ff1139eb9aeb74e07a49900357a8d30fc8facfd9077448d7591.jpg

I know on YouTube these metrics are used as clickbait. I also think “get 0.1” or “everyone must have 0.01” is a way to communicate that you don’t have to be a wholecoiner to benefit from the migration towards bitcoin as a standardized store of value.

Finished this book today! A wonderful read.


Yup! That’s how I feel. Should I buy food? Nah, I’ll fast and stack sats. 😆


I meant if ETF’s could sell their share without actually holding real Bitcoin to balance their inflows from their customers. I.e people think their savings are backed by bitcoin it it’s actually not 100% true.

I know you can’t make more than 21milion bitcoin without 51% of miners voting for an increase in supply. Which is unlikely


Simon! My man! More Swedes on the platform. I approve 🇸🇪


Sounds promising. I just realized that it’s always tempting to issue papers promising you have something, that might not align 100% with the truth.


GM! Noob question: How can we be sure the ETF:s holds as much #bitcoin as the issue securities for? 🧐

Thanks for being so helpful to us newbies. 🫡

Understanding dishonest communication patterns is key.

In social interactions and intimate relationships people play dishonest  “games” to get what they want instead of communicating their needs in a straightforward fashion.

Here’s two books on human psychology and transactional analysis you should check out if you experience tons of drama in your interpersonal relationships.

I guess it’s all a part of shedding skin. To go from novice to apprentice level Hodler.

I’m a nonfiction book dude, hence I will share book recommendations on philosophy, psychology and human nature here on #nostr .

This book, “Attached”, is a must read for anyone who struggle to find, and keep , love. Knowing your attachment style will help you understand yourself and your needs.

Me? I’m securely attached in intimate relationships, and anxiously attached to #bitcoin . 😉 https://video.nostr.build/0d8dd60cf0523ffad176752e5f4eaea6e10a12e1a84889f3f915da0cb4364acb.mp4


GM!
Into the unknown today for #bitcoin. Clear sky’s in Sweden in case we are going to the moon today. I’ll will be watching.

Stay humble! Read a good book, be nice to people. 😀

Anyone else who bought the all-time-high yesterday?

OMG!! Thanks for the Zap!! ⚡ 🤩🤩🤩🤩 did I just lose my virginity on the Lighting network? 🤭 nostr:npub17uuqcy0k5sx8dqwjvc00vqdexpvez9qmd06944c9shd9e4w8th6q8dv6qx  ❤

This community is great!


Doing my best to adopt to our new reality. I have the know this stuff so that I can help (and convince) my friends that we have entered a new paradigm. 🚀😅


Dear Journal.

Starting to figure out the Lighting Wallets and Zapping. Got myself a Wallet called Wallet of Satoshi.

The setup was so easy that it put a smile on my face. Confidence in my abilities is now restored

Next step is to figure out how to get some god damn Satoshis onto that thing from my Self-custody wallet. That seems to be the trickiest part.

I think I’ve hooked it up correctly to my #Nostr profile… I think..

The Bitcoin rabbit hole goes deep, and I’m enjoying the journey of discovery.

I’m Swedish. Satoshi is available. Thanks!


Thank you! I was considering Wallet of Satoshi. Any thoughts on that one?

I’ll remember to zap you once I get my shit together. Thanks!


What self-custody wallet do you recommend? I’m new to Bitcoin. I have a Coinbase Wallet. I don’t remember why.

Is it wise to have several wallets to spread risks!?

I’m new, and I know this community is great at onboarding new people to #bitcoin. ❤


Welcome!


New book Arrival! Have you read this one?

“It might be too volatile to be a currency for now, but it is the first organic currency.

But its mere existence is an insurance policy that will remind governments that the last object the establishment could control, namely the currency, is no longer their monopoly.

This gives us, the crowd, and insurance policy against an Orwellian future.”

- Nassim Nicolas Taleb, January 22, 2018 (The old Foreword, The Bitcoin Standard)

Ah! Bummer! Strike.me is not available in my territory. Which is Sweden 🇸🇪. I’ll continue my search for other options. 🤷♂


Thanks! I appreciate the friendliness and the guidance. I’m dipping my toes into a new world. 😀 cheers!


Just checked. The Zap option doesn’t come up on your profile. https://image.nostr.build/23fa41aeb585b9395e4f50d920794e84aac6771f0e8044767789975d8f11b855.jpg


This is really neat. Thanks!


How did you get a lighting address? Is that different from your bitcoin address? I’m pretty new to the technology as well, but I thought I might ask, since we need to educate eachother on these things.

I have a Coinbase self-custody wallet. Do I need something more?

(N00b questions.. I know..)


Catching up on Bitcoin Atlantis keynotes from Madeira 2024.

I might have to be there in person next time. Anyone who was there?

GM, for sure!


GM! Bought more sats last night at all time high here in Sweden. It felt better than ever.

Bitcoin is just the better idea.

How’s the book? It’s on my to read list.


What are you reading this week? 🤔📚

I’m reading up on essential physics. I felt I have a few holes in my fundamental knowledge.

What year is this quote from?


"Skin in the Game" by Nassim Nicholas Taleb explores the importance of having a personal stake in the outcomes of decisions and actions.

Taleb argues that individuals should bear the consequences of their choices, emphasizing the value of accountability and risk-taking. 📈

Quotes:

1. "Skin in the game means that you do not pay attention to what people say, only to what they do, and to how much of their necks they are putting on the line."

2. "Bureaucracy is a construction by which a person is conveniently separated from the consequences of his or her actions."

3. "If you give an opinion, and someone follows it, you are morally obligated to be, yourself, exposed to its consequences."

These quotes capture Taleb's idea that true decision-making responsibility comes when individuals have a personal stake and face the consequences of their choices.

Have you read this book?! 🧐 📚

In what stakes do you have “skin in the game”!? 🤔 (Bitcoin yeez?!)

First post on nostr. Had a big Bitcoin/blockchain/decentralization revelation the last month. Now it has taken me here, and I’m continuing down the rabbit hole.
My passion is spreading the love of reading nonfiction books and lifelong learning.
