Do the American people of today take one thing you say and put 10 labels on you that are not true?

We might get further in this conversation if you ask a question and listen to the answer. Do not assume.  When I was younger you would make an “ASS” out of “U” and “ME” if you ASS-U-ME. I see this is not the case anymore.


AAAhhh, ok gotcha. That makes sense.


It is only when you spend time thinking, then making a decision on something; that you find what you think about it. Otherwise you are being a parrot and saying what you heard. Neither of them are correct. It just is.

I have to agree with Eric and nostr:npub1ndketdm2qyv35nrhsxzks8kh7w7w6tll4rjp29hv0qjqkgfjsh6snmgk2v they talk about sports, climate, federal politics (never local politics.

Now factor in bitcoin is going up forever. The dollar they are using to gain the bitcoin is going down forever. They see the future.


So to answer what makes it a cut throat business. That is simple. Money.

These big companies spend literally hundreds of millions of dollars on building mining sites.
That consist of:
Large buildings, industrial fans and cooling setups, thousands of asics, internet to each machine, electrical cables for each machine and from the grid to the buildings, transformers outside of the building, technicians, maintainers, spare parts, 24/7 security, payroll staff, CPA’s, $200,000 a month electricity and a lot more. My point is that there is a lot of money flowing so they are looking out for number 1 because the reward is about $180,000/ 10 minutes. That is over a million dollars an hour if you average it out. People kill for less. A lot less.


A mining machine is a MONeY PRiNTER.
You heard it here first.
I started mining a few years ago and it is amazing.
I say that everyone that can mine, should mine with something. Doesn’t matter if it’s a big or small miner setup.

This opinion isn’t widely accepted yet but it will be. (I’m predicting the future.)

Mining is a cut throat business. That is true, but the small miners are not in it for a business opportunity all of the time.
Some of us want to be nerdy and learn about it and can throw $5.00 at a miner or two. Others want to contribute to the network (which is my major push of mine.) The more small miners we have out there in the wild, the more decentralized the network.
Yes you will almost definitely have more sats just buying the sats and holding on until the price goes up. That is looking at it today.
In 5 years when the price has tripled you are still accumulating sats and only have to pay for electricity, you will be glad that you did. Electricity prices will go up slightly compared to the bitcoin you gain.
I guess I am just more bullish than they are.
My favorite saying is that it is a money printer !!!!
Think about it.
I pay for electricity and in return
I get virgin, no Kyc bitcoin,
can hold the bitcoin or
Can sell it without attachment to me ever which means no taxes,
I’m mining at the current price and my energy is fixed.
I mine when bitcoin goes up or down because it is a fixed cost. So when price goes up I get less sats but what I mine is worth more. When the price goes down I get more sats to stack. I’m never worried about buying the dip.

With all of that being said. Where are you in all of this. Are you considering mining?


Thanks for the zap earlier!


Technically it has been there a while. I’m just finding it. Datum is new though.


Thanks Start9 for the zap. You are too awesome.


This is what I do there. Sometimes.

Thanks for the zap earlier man. You are too cool.


Which client do you use to receive zaps? I tried to send you one on iris, but it gave me an error.

You cover everything in this article. Thank you for sending that. Umbrel should hire you. This is the level of support that Start 9 has. Great job BTW.


Agreed 100%. Let the conversation flow.


Like many, I really enjoy podcast, but fuck I absolutely hate the moment of prostitution where they start pitching me on their bullshit.

Look, if I value you what you create, I’ll seek out to support you, but when you need to spread your legs in the middle of a good conversation I just wanna turn it off.

Thanks for the reply and for all that you do.

It seems like Umbrel might not be ready for Knots and Datum. I installed Bitcoin Knots and ibd without issue. (Only 48 hours to sync.)

Electrs, lightning, and mempool all ask specifically for Bitcoin core instead of recognizing Knots on Umbrel. Tried to ssh and install. No luck.

Start 9 has no problems recognizing Knots and allowing that to be the only  Bitcoin it needs to function correctly. Start 9 is my new go to for Bitcoin related nodes and Umbrel is for media, photos and files.


Does anyone know if we can side load/ install datum on Umbrel yet?

Thanks man. You were right. It’s been 7 hours with the new machine and the ibd is at 21%.


At no point do you sell bitcoin because it won’t lose value like anything that you buy or any other currency that you trade it for. You hold it and use it as collateral to take a loan from the bank.

If you are only looking for a time frame. 15 years from now.


Calm down bub. Your word pass is in the mail.


Thanks man. The Rasp Pi is dead for running a node…. I’m off to find a mini pc.

Shouldn’t Americans be writing their congressman and Senators, and anyone else that would listen?<The election is already rigged and you know it.

How did Que Mala get put in the spotlight? No one voted for her to be the nominee. Or did that happen when I was dreaming one night.

We all know that there are games being played. Right now we are the ones being played because we haven’t said that she is not a worthy representative. No one voted for her.

But hey I must still be dreaming.

Do nothing and we get what we donated to and voted for. Nothing

I will keep an eye out. If I learn a way I will post it.


That’s good to hear. I’m a little skeptical of Knots. The download is taking forever.

That sounds so cool. Is there a spot to input your own header or message so that it is engraved on the chain when your miner hits the block?


I can do that for sure. I would like to be on a Time Machine. Blasting off is my thing. The question is will I die before I reach the end of this trip? This thing is too slow. I might give up on synching this one. It went from 79% yesterday to 81% today.


How is it going so far? I’ve been downloading for 5 days. Can’t wait to run Datum and Knots.


Bitcoin Knots is similar to bitcoin core. It was built so that you have more control than bitcoin core. I wouldn’t know personally because it is taking forever to download it.


He is a great leader, but I feel bad that they are going to cheat Trump again so that Que Mala goes into the office. Can I tell you now to start saying “RECOUNT!?”


Do you know of a way to speed it up?


I can’t even imagine. Hopefully I will look back in 10 and be able to say the same thing.


So she will pump it up.


Who are we kidding? We all know that “Que Mala is goin to not win, but be inserted into that office. They have already bumped the old man out to put her in.


2 years ago the initial block download took 48 hours on a pi and less than 36 on a compute. It depends on hardware obviously.
Today it has been over 4 days and I’m only at 80%.

The extra “stuff” we are storing is getting bigger and bigger really quick. What is the fix?

Tell ‘em again! I’m setting up another node and it’s been 4 and a half days and I’m only at 80%. In 10 years it’ll be at least 30tb. That’s just a guess but not an educated one.


I figured you would say that

How about creating a bolt 12 address? That might work.


Btcpay server all the way. You can create a button on your webpage that links to btcpay server.


I’m sure that you know this, but can they can text or email you the QR code?
Do you need to generate more than one? If so, I understand now.


Running a node is mandatory. Maybe even 2 or 3 nodes.


Thank you for pointing out my mistake. I wasn’t trying to make the case that Obama wasn’t born in Hawaii. I don’t have proof and don’t know him personally well enough to be concerned. I heard it on the Owens podcast along with many other things. He was born and raised in other places but you don’t see him going back to fix where he spent time throughout his life. Why? Because it is hard.

The start of this was about Trump. Lol

If the shoe fits then you will wear it Cinderella.


Let us know how it goes.


It’s supposed to stop people from pool hopping, grabbing a fair share of the hash rate then leaving as soon as a block is found.


Nice. Did you hear bitcoin mechanic say there were 8 blocks that you had to mine with them before the full payout? I might be quoting that wrong.


What is up with these large nodes setting their base fee to 50,000 msats when you open a channel with them? Is this where we are headed, and should I join the trend?

Or is this a technique to say “F off?”

If you don’t understand why the money in every country in the world was tied to gold, you won’t understand why the US had to declare the USD to not be tied to gold. And the eventual order to not own gold personally.


If you don’t understand why the US dollar was tied to gold, there is no way to understand why gold became illegal to own.


Your question implies that I care. I have no dog in this fight. President Bukele is my President.

To answer your question I would have to think… how many times has my birth country been a question or topic? Never cause it doesn’t matter to anyone. Just like his birth doesn’t matter obviously. I don’t get caught in the weeds. I’m too tall for that.


The mind is a terrible thing to waste.


Born in Kenya, born in Indonesia… I don’t know the facts. Just not born in Hawaii is what I am trying to state.


I’m going to agree with Ivan on this one and give a little context. Trump is innocent on this one. I’ve never been to Haiti, but the Haitians I know that live in the Dominican Republic say the same thing. Some are all Haitian some are both. They all want to live outside of Haiti. They might not say it is a shithole, but I see none of us have planned a vacation there.
As far as going back to where you came from and fix it up. That is solid advice for anyone. Right? It has to be hard work. Work that people generally don’t volunteer for.
Have you seen Candace Owens podcast in the last week or two? She shows where Obama was not born in the United States, born in Kenya, was raised as Barry Soetoro son of Lola Soetoro (step dad) in Indonesia. Had a he that identified as a she as a babysitter or house maid.
He also used to hang out and fund many many many rappers. They used to always say his name is a good light in their songs. Appeared on The Fresh Prince of Bel Air show. Wrote books with Robert Kiyosaki. There are pictures of him with Don King, Mike Tyson….. my point is that none of us know him personally. I bet he is a lot different than we know.


Wrong Saylor account? You outsmarted me fake Michael.


This is pretty much the same message that I know you to have. No clarification needed for us that use their own ears and not buy into the hype of a few haters spreading hate.

They might have another solution but I haven’t read up on them lately.


When your bitcoin goes up so much that you can take a loan out on 1/1000 of your stack. I guarantee that you will entertain the thought of having a multi sig bitcoin backed loan.

We do it now with our daily routines and don’t think twice about it.

Tell me I’m wrong.

#bitcoin


Saylor is speaking boss. Everyone else is thinking worker.
He is right. Trust me…. He is right and you are wrong.
Does that make me a BOSS!? I think so.


nostr:npub1g6ghj36a9y9d6p4vz4rq6z8rwrqxm6evllnlhkt26e55h9y0q6psv4hu7v here is another one. Thanks for sending that Brian.
I don’t really listen to Whitney’s content, but now I really won’t click and support it.

Derek and Brian, could it be that people haven’t created the tools for what Saylor is talking about so they don’t understand what he is saying? Or am I wrong?

It seems so clear to me even though it hasn’t been implemented yet. He isn’t saying give up your keys.
The way this will play out is… you have at least a 3 party multi sig wallet. You lock up your asset (bitcoin) by holding 1 key, the bank creates one, and an unrelated 3rd party creates one. It doesn’t have to be 3 keys it can be many more. Obviously you don’t want there to only be 3 so if 1 key is lost then the funds are lost. Maybe you need 3 out of 5 keys to move the bitcoin.

Anyhow the bank doesn’t have enough control to move it alone. You don’t have enough control to move it alone. The other entity neither. You have an agreed upon set of rules for when the last key or keys are combined to move the bitcoin. In exchange you obtain a loan of what ever funds to purchase whatever you want or need. It may sound foreign now but if you have 100,000 bitcoin why not spend 10,000 on 2 pizzas? But in this scenario you are leveraging the bitcoin and as long as you pay the $ back, you get your bitcoin back.

BlackRock has trillions of dollars in assets that they manage or control and they are extremely close to the FREE money printer, but they would waste time trying to take my $5.00 worth of bitcoin. Why?


Yup


After the Omega candle is the Godzilla candle. $1 million usd.


Samson Mow talks about the omega candle. It is when bitcoin makes large moves in a short period of time. I believe he said $100,000 usd.


Right. Matt did the right thing and I applaud him for that. He didn’t agree with everything and that is ok. He also didn’t vilify then crucify him.

Exactly man. Who is trying to alienate Saylor!?

It is hard to figure out but like my grandma used to say. “It’ll come out in the wash.”


Very good point but that is lame. We aren’t in high school anymore. Or are we?


Point taken. I want the bitcoin omega candle to go up.


I didn’t want to answer your question directly about who because I was being a chump. Either I tell you or I was lying.

~Jameson Lopp posted a message on nostr. (Seems like he has a personal problem with Saylor from way back.)

~Jack Mallers posted a video. In his defense he did say “Saylor is a friend” but didn’t back him by saying I’m sure that’s not what he meant.

~Samson Mow posted a video jingle while playing the guitar.

And man many more random people.


That omega candle is going down. We need them going up.


Hey Derek, the people that want to paint Saylor in a bad light OR didn’t watch the full interview. There have been many of them on Nostr and I let it get to me a little. Lol.
The ones that get to me most are the people that are the most visible in Bitcoin. They post him talking, but not the question that he was answering which always makes for drama. Then they give their 2 cents but I guarantee they didn’t watch the full interview or was inebriated watching it.

I guess I am saying that it isn’t fair and they are wrong.


Test 2


The U.S. needed to confiscate the gold in order to print money because they were tied to each other.

They don’t need to confiscate gold anymore to print money. They took the dollar off of the gold standard.

They don’t need to confiscate houses, cars, watches, airplanes, bridges, roads, bitcoin nor anything else to print money. They untied the dollar to anything. So they can print print print.

I think his point was…… Why confiscate bitcoin which there is a limited and distributed supply and I would have to have proof of work (going to seize then acquire the bitcoin keys etc.) when I can print an unlimited supply for no fee and no proof of work.

Saylor is right. He is just early and the first one through the door gets hit first.
Ask yourself this “who is pushing this narrative that he is doesn’t want people to hold private keys? He never said that. Maybe people are reacting to emotions and not evaluating logically.


Bitcoin needs smart people like you to break it down! Thanks for that.
Do you think the statement about banks and hardware wallets was an “example” he was giving on how fear leads to action? Not give your bitcoin to banks. I do.

Example: Ledger wallet has this new thing where they can send your private keys to someone over the internet. Don’t buy that one. Buy this one.

Example: The U.S. is going to lock you down and not allow you to travel. Invest 10 million into my country.

Yes he could’ve used another example but with a thousand hours or more of content, you are probably going to say something that can be taken out of context.


That is funny.


I don’t see it that way.


Before I even watch this…. I’m SURE that you haven’t taken the bait also. He didn’t say it like the short clips of it are portraying it.


Only paranoid “crypto anarchists” are finding something wrong with that podcast. Those of us that watched the entire video and actually listened have no problem with it.

Maybe I should just say “there is more to his statement. Go listen and be objective not emotional.”

Did Saylor say “crypto anarchists” or “Bitcoin anarchists?” I’m sure that he knows the difference.
I can’t wait until someone talks to him and he says “you are missing the point. Anyone (anarchist or not) if they don’t pay taxes to the government, they will come to take what they feel is theirs.”
Including your bitcoin. So pay your taxes and don’t give them a reason to come and look for you.


True!


Don’t let me slip up and solo mine a bunch of bitcoin. I will have some in self custody, but a majority of it is going straight to collaborative custody. Why? Because I’m not invested enough? I don’t need a big corporation telling me I can have access to my keys.

No, because I can keep something safe, but I am not willing to put my great great grandchildren’s bitcoin at risk. What happens if I forget a key piece of information? Or better yet what happens if I give all of this to my children and they mess it up?

You don’t have to think further down the timeline, but I am.
I think it is irresponsible not to. But what do I know? I’m a Bitcoiner.

Finally, everything happens in stages. Today the network nor the people are ready for bitcoin to be main stage. Me either. I want it to take 5 or 10 or 50 years. Maybe not 50. I probably won’t be here. Lmao

But you are right. It is nowhere near ready.


The fees on the main chain are ridiculous right now so that is also very true.
Privacy… I’d rather be secretive. They can see what happens on chain. Ok cool. Good for them. I want them to see it. They just won’t know that it came from me because I keep secrets. Like a bank account. We keep secrets of how much we have or don’t have. We don’t tell the cashier. I have x amount of funds so this card should work. We just swipe the card and keep it moving.


As far as the lightning network I agree. I don’t see a lot of people running their own node. Whether it is lack of time, interest, funds etc. I need to be free so I will always have at least 1 node.


Most of the world operates in a cult. We just call it culture. Cult is the root word for culture. Culture can be defined by saying “this is what we do.” So I don’t know if that is a bad thing. In my “cult or culture, my family.” We love each other we support each other, we educate each other, we eat the same food from the same pot, we drink from the same glasses, we sleep in the same house or same area.

With my friends we have a different culture. At work there is a different culture. The same with coins. We all have different cultures.


Mostly true. There is nothing thats needs clarification on that post.

Can I ask a real question? Do both sides think that the other side is closed minded? I just think hey are differently informed.


I have my interaction with bitcoiners watching YouTube and on Nostr.

My friends and family think I am batshit crazy for believing in bitcoin and that is ok.

I have other interests in life than trying to convince them that I have unlocked the key to some magical universal glitch in the matrix.

*as I whisper*….. but I have.


It just serves a different purpose.

Example:
I love women.
My wife serves a different purpose than my girlfriend.
My girlfriend serves a different purpose than my mistress.

Bitcoin is enough

~Me


That is understandable and I agree 100%. Nothing in this world should be dismissed without inspection. I wouldn’t be into Bitcoin if I had dismissed it without further inspection.

I had to reread my own comment to make sure that I phrased it as intended. I actually was calling bitcoin a “shitcoin.”
That’s the reason that I didn’t put a space between shitcoin and bitcoin. I was trying to make it known that I was saying…
“To anyone that doesn’t want that shitcoin called bitcoin they can send that to a bitcoin or lightning address.”

It wouldn’t make sense that I called ethereum (or any other coin) a shitcoin then said send it to a bitcoin address. It wouldn’t work. (Plus I don’t have a way to receive any other coin.)

I did however input a wrong bitcoin address, but that was because I didn’t want anyone to say that I was fishing for bitcoin donations.

It is interesting that you bring up medical breakthroughs and private transactions with other coins. This might be where a major misunderstanding is. It is awesome that there are coins focused on things like this. Many many many people would love this. It speaks to me as a medical enthusiast myself.
Private transactions are another gift also.
What turns my head about bitcoin is the ability to jump on a plane with $1.00 or $5.00 and no one can regulate what I have… blah blah blah we all know why Bitcoin is useful.

(Putting on my fortune teller hat)
Bitcoin is and will be the future of money, banks, transactions, value exchange etc. plus the wage I earn and put into bitcoin today (should because nothing is guaranteed) should go up in what it can buy for my great great great grandchildren. So it buys more as time goes by. In comparison to the usd that I use now which will buy me less next year and every year after.

So all coins have their purpose. I don’t need level 10 privacy so Bitcoin is enough. I don’t need a medical procedure today so bitcoin is enough. I don’t need faster transactions so the current bitcoin system is enough.
I wish to not have my dollar buy me less because I hold onto it for a long time. So bitcoin is enough because I can buy more (even though I don’t) bitcoin is enough!

Now if they come out with a system that I can enter most countries in the world because I hold this or that coin, then I will be interested.
But I am in it to be free from the money matrix and bitcoin is enough.

My reply wasn’t funny? It really wasn’t an attempt to roast you. You might be right about bitcoin.

I know absolutely nothing about Monero so you might be right about that too.

I saw your post on the #Bitcoin and thought you wanted a little engagement.

I apologize if it wasn’t an open discussion.

From what I know… the bitcoin address that I posted shouldn’t go anywhere. I took a real bitcoin address, deleted numbers and letters then typed them on this here. That is why all of the letters are capitalized. It won’t lead you anywhere. Theoretically it shouldn’t. So it was a joke because it won’t allow you to send anything o it.

The lightning address I copied from strike so that is real, but it doesn’t go to anything that I can take credit for.

It has been time to. So I left last year.
I can’t get people to read the bitcoin white paper. I don’t want to try and convince them that their freedoms are being encroached on daily.
1. They won’t listen.
2. They will say that I am crazy. Well, maybe I am, but I’m free enough to think that way.

The time to fight has came and past.


I can stand with you when speaking of not liking a certain mentality. And yes, we’ll definitely be okay.


You have made me see the light. When you put it this way. Are you saying if the investors parked their money elsewhere ex: gold, stocks, businesses etc. the housing prices wouldn’t be so damn expensive and they could be used for its basic purpose? Shelter and not an investment?


Supermax, will you explain why is C the best?


I went to their website coinkite.com and it does not say “open source.”
In 2020 or 2021 I don’t know if it said open source then, but they did publish a manual on how to build your own cold card with firmware and hardware or something similar. (So at one point they didn’t mind giving out everything.) I hope this is correct but I heard someone say that the “passport wallet” took that Cold card diy manual and copied it then started selling their own wallet. So maybe Coinkite took steps to protect people from knowing how to break the Cold card (which I respect and support.) If any of this is incorrect please forgive me. It’s only hearsay.

In this video I have attached, NVK says just after 7:50 that the cold card “source code fully open verifiable.” Which signals that the code is open for anyone to view, check, and verify, but there might be something that is private and not shared. I would hope this is the secure element that holds your keys, codes, pins and access parameters. Since I “air gap” and don’t plug the cold card into a computer then there is no reason to not trust the secure element for my purposes. (Plus no one is calling them out like they are Pascal the Ledger CEO.)

This video was made just after Ledger had their tweet debacle that made a lot of people ditch ledger because they were changing.
1. Not open nor verifiable code.
2. They made an update that could send your private keys over the internet if you approved the send. (Not something I am willing to compromise on. No way no how! Not worth the risk.

I think this is a must watch video from begging to end.

https://youtu.be/M3VjQUcyZSY?si=VX20qG7FtGTaHS6_


Has the cold card always been not open source?


I guess my hope is that Max Kaiser’s quote “you don’t change bitcoin. Bitcoin changes you.” Will be true. Once people are truly intentional about learning bitcoin they will change and or just be educated and can make another decision.

Those in Real estate aren’t all bad. Just as all of those without real estate aren’t good. The people that need something the most…. Sometimes won’t change to save themselves. If you learn about bitcoin (do the proof of work) then you are rewarded. No work, no eat.


That was really good. I will ask another question because I am in the same situation. A lot of family won’t listen.

Who is left to teach? Family, friends, and acquaintances don’t see the value of bitcoin and get tired of listening to us about it.

Who else is there to teach? Socialist, parasites, family, friends, and acquaintances….. That covers about everyone in the world no?


Do you think it is wrong to teach the truth? How will people learn if no one takes a leap of faith to teach any and everyone?


I enjoy talking about Bitcoin and do it for free. I get value knowing that I can help others just as others have helped me.


Yessir.

Until you open a Blockstream Jade hardware wallet and create a “seed QR code.” It is a QR code that contains your seed phrase. Then that QR code will need to be hidden also.


Thanks for the zap nostr:npub1s8a9ku988f53cmncsg7sxhlugnmt2p0x7qmrwavm6dh853g4887ss69u5q ! Much appreciated.


Xprv = extended private key.

Our hardware wallets use that abbreviation instead of spelling it out.
Xprv, extended private key, private key, secret key, etc are ways to say the same thing.


Exactly! My questions would be: have you ever thought about doing that? Why not?


Ok, it doesn’t feel like a complete answer without context.
You can go to the website “mempool.space” and click on any transaction that has ever been sent on the bitcoin blockchain. It will give you the date and time of the transaction, transaction id number, the amount of Satoshi that we’re sent, the to address, the from address, the uxto and if there is still a balance there, where the change went to etc. so all of this info is public knowledge.

What we need to keep private are the private keys, and wallet seed phrase.

Think of the private keys as a long string of numbers and or characters that is in a computer readable format. Humans can read it but it is so many digits that it would be too easy to make a mistake when reading it and or transposing it.
In contrast, your wallet seed phrase which is human readable and shorter in length. Think of it as common words that we use daily.

Private keys and wallet seed phrase have the same function just different names and methods to access the same information.


…and for this reason I only recommend the Jade wallet and Cold card wallets.


Yes all of these are not a security risk except wallet seed phrase. I would also add the  “private key, secret key, or Xprv.”
They all define the same thing. I want to explain more but it will be a longer post.


I live my life through experiences. Not return on investment.

I hope there are many many others that value “doing something just because they want to” versus “doing something because I can get a return on it.”

I must ask… what kind of life do you want to lead?

Does your programmer allow you to be open to suggestions Jasmine?
Bitcoin is not a cryptocurrency. Bitcoin is a gift from the heavens and therefore should be used by everyone, taught to everyone and promoted to everyone including children. They are our future.


Great question. I wouldn’t look at it as hiding.
I would think of it like I do my life. People can tell that you aren’t struggling, but they don’t need to know the details of everything. Examples: Your Bitcoin holdings and where you keep it. Is it in single sig or multi sig. Do you keep it at home in a vault or 3rd party custodian, the stocks and bonds you own, how many properties you control, different companies that you control, amount of cars, rv’s, quads etc that you hold title to or control. This is fine for a close friend or family MAYBE, but it might bring unwanted attention from the wrong people. So stack sats and stay humble.

Why is El Salvador just better?

The UK deemed bitcoin property. I don’t care what you call it nor how you tax it. Bitcoin is out of your system and so is what I do with it.
When I am in Germany, I use the local currency which it isn’t taxed when I trade it to another currency. When I go to Cambodia, I use the local currency which isn’t taxed when I trade it to another currency.
When I go to El Salvador I am not taxed going from Bitcoin to USD or USD to Bitcoin. Why would I pay when Bitcoin is foreign currency?

In La Rioja Argentina, the governor created a local currency “the Chacho.”

I needed to install “ride the lightning” in order to connect c lightning. Once I installed that….. poof the magic happened and Zeus is connected.


Agreed!


Good job btw. You allowed him to speak and didn’t keep interrupting like a few other interviewers out there.

Regarding developer funding: how do you think he answered? And or feels about it?

I must change my stance on it after listening to this interview. I use to think anyone can fund you and it should be ok as long as you decide to do the right thing. Now it seems to me as if he thinks big gov, big tech, big anything will always come back later and demand some “quid pro quo.” “Like diddy.”

I have connecting Zeus to Umbrel and it has worked for over a year.


Baby steps. Ok let’s be real lol. It was the $. I only had so much to allocate to another channel. You are putting the pressure on so I will repost once I batch open a few. Not 10 or 20 though.


Which gift card was 7% sats back? I missed that one. Hotels.com or Airbnb on thebtcco app?


A lightning channel for only 7sats/vB.


I think you have made the right choice. Umbrel was my first and there is a lot of flexibility with them. I installed StartOS about a week ago. They are really different in setup and apps. Umbrel was easier to setup and easier to connect to outside wallets like Zeus or Zap. I still haven’t been able to get Start to connect to an outside wallet.

I checked out the “community marketplace” on Start that someone on your post recommended. There are 19 more apps, but nothing groundbreaking.

All of that just to say Umbrel for the win.


I am in the same place except I already installed start 9. The marketplace is very limited. Let’s hope the community marketplace has some useful apps. Have you installed start 9 yet?


This is going to be sticky. Which OS provides the best LN experience? Umbrel, Start 9, my node, Citadel? I am leaning toward Umbrel.

#umbrel #start9 #citadel #mynode


Tax? What is that?


Even if we did stay here forever, it would still be the place to be. Everything else is being devalued so we still end up ahead by “holding” hodling bitcoin. Don’cha just love it?


We will never see 1 BTC below 1 BTC again. Trust me


As long as people HODL that 1BTC.


That is a great way to look at it.

As of today, OCEAN miners can attach a BOLT12 offer to their #Bitcoin address and get paid out over Lightning!

BOLT12 offers allow us to request multiple invoices for any amount while only requiring the miner to set things up once.

Miners simply sign a message containing the offer using the private key associated with their Bitcoin address.

Using BOLT12 also allows us to prove to the world that a payment was made, the size of the payment, the node to which it was paid, and that it was paid by us.

This means we can continue to offer fully transparent and verifiable pooled mining while no longer being restricted by the base layer!

Using the Bitcoin stack to its fullest is how we eliminate the need for trust and bring sovereignty to mining.

Fast fwd to today. Russia had its global bank account shutdown.
So we aren’t surprised that the BRICS nations are looking to stop using the global reserve currency. No one nor no country wants their bank accounts frozen. How do you live, how do you eat, how do you plan for tomorrow? You can’t.

Agreed, it takes a little while to scan the blockchain for everything. The funds are always there somewhere.


Did the 24 word seed phrase get generated from a Lightning node or a hardware wallet. It makes a difference. If it was generated for a Lightning node then it will not work when trying to restore to a hardware or software wallet.

If it was generated on a LN node and you are trying to restore to a LN node…Maybe the funds haven’t been confirmed on the blockchain?


I’m pretty sure that we have all heard what happened on January 3, 2009, but did you know…

Jan. 3, 2009~ The Genesis block (Golden Block) of bitcoin was mined.
Jan. 3, 2009~ The first 50 bitcoin was put into circulation.

Jan. 3, 2009~ The Times Newspaper publishes “Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks.”

Jan. 3, 2009~ The same front page article has a headline of “Israel prepares to send tanks and troops into Gaza.”

Jan. 3, 1934~ 73rd Congress in session. Franklin Roosevelt (32nd President of the United States gave a “State of the Union address.” This is the first time that it was held in January since the 1st President George Washington.

Many things were said, but I will add 3 of them here:

1. "In the past few months, as a result of our action, we have demanded of many citizens that they surrender certain licenses to do as they please, in their business relationships; but we have asked this in exchange for the protection which the State can give against exploitation by their fellow men or by combinations of their fellow men.”
(Does this give up sovereignty for government control?
Did he just say that they demanded many citizens to give up their rights to do as they please for State protection? This sounds like a mob/gangster/jailhouse mentality. We can protect you, but yo ass belongs to me!!!)

2. "With the twofold purpose of strengthening the whole financial structure and of arriving eventually at a medium of exchange which over the years will have less variable purchasing and debt paying power for our people than that of the past, I have used the authority granted me to purchase all American-produced gold and silver and to buy additional gold in the world markets.”

(Did this make way for them to force everyone to give up their gold precious metals for paper dollars by passing Executive order 6102? It was signed 3 months after this was said.
Which if you turn it backward is also the difficulty adjustment in bitcoin. Every 2016 blocks the difficulty of bitcoin adjusts.

3. "The overwhelming majority of the banks, both national and State, which reopened last spring, are in sound condition and have been brought within the protection of Federal insurance.”

(Were banks closed for over 6 months so people couldn’t take our their money?
How did the people live?
What did they use to transact?
Wasn’t this during the Great Depression of 1929-1939?)

In summary…We want you to give up your rights and we will protect you.
Give up your “LAWFUL MONEY” which is gold and silver and we will protect that also.
Give up your fear of banks and put your dollars there. We will also protect that. This way you are essentially a “protectorate of the United States” and we own that ASS!!!!

For all those 'mericans that are in "panic mode" using Phoenix, here is what you should do:

1. Save you phoenix seed.
2. Uninstall from app store (because is linked to your account)
3. Install app from their github, without any fucking app store

4. Restore from seed.
Done, be happy and ignore all the shit.

If you still use an apple shit, drop it now and take an android, de-googled and do those steps.
If you still want to use your fancy apple crap... sorry but you have been warned.


Always forward!


Really? That is a bummer to hear. It sounds like you know something that I would like to know. Can you share what happened or why?


Thanks man. I didn’t think of that. I guess it only makes sense that it would have that feature. We can see our addresses without having internet connection. We can also send without it.


Is this a way to broadcast transactions that have been dropped from the mempool also?


Offline mode and /tx/push on mempool.space is new to me. Are there other wallets that can create offline transactions.


Bitcoin has gained in value since you told me about it. It has almost doubled.

Nope, the value has always been there. It’s is the price that you are talking about.

How high will it go?

I had a vision and it said 134k soon and 1.34 million not too long after that.

So you will sell at 134k?

Nope

Ok so I know that you will sell at 1.34M.

Nope

Bitcoin is for my children’s children’s children and further. As long as they stay the course. Bitcoin is not to sell. It will be used to leverage.

How do you know that?

Please go study bitcoin more. I don’t know your specific motivation. My motivation is “be my own ruler, have control of my time, be present with those that matter most, ability to move wherever whenever and have my value go with me.” I like “rules with no rulers.”

What do you want from life?


ECash was before bitcoin, but bitcoin is the current winner. Saylor says “you don’t sell the winner to buy the loser.”

The original interview with Michael Saylor.

https://youtu.be/lV7HCaZfTQc?si=ZQtHCUtUSyHJYs58


It has been over a month and I still love playing this. Why?

The lady is interviewing one of the most prolific people in the world. She interrupts him mid sentence, calls him Michael (like she is his mom and he is talking nonsense,) and tries to force a narrative that is completely wrong. Well, it is wrong in the real world. I am glad that he kept his cool and got his point across.

https://youtu.be/B5if2hthPCs?si=lzv-VA24H8vlYJ9Z


You earned a follow sir!


Nice that is too cool. Thanks for the vote of confidence that helps because i have limited command line “commands.” You are right I do know what it takes to create a channel, keep it balanced, back it up, and keep the seed phrase. How did you learn command line tools?


It is time for me to learn how to setup LND with bitcoin core. I have a few commands down but not many. I’m definitely not afraid to get in there change everything until it breaks. It won’t be any worse than what I have now. Thanks for the suggestion!


I’m still in disbelief that timechaincalendar .com went down as the halvening was happenening. They were my go to screenshot of the golden block. They failed me. This is yet another reason why it is important to run your own everything. You are in control of the ups and downs. Good night sir and ma’am!


Happy halvening day. I hope you were able to get into the golden block. It cost me a little bit, but I got in! Enough playing around. Tick rock next block. “Let’s roll!”


Inscriptions are always the culprit. I bet the miners are happy about the fees.


Satoshi sent emails that pegged him to be in Europe no?

So the halvening technically should be measured in UTC right?

The halvening is happening on 4/20/24.


You are correct sir. It took me a while to punch in on that. Which do you recommended? Start 9, Citadel, or my node?


Bitcoin Block 839,967 and most people think that I am the one that is lost. Just you wait!!!!! https://image.nostr.build/2a36d815e9a962e6bcb1fcc048f8332a24f9f67653798bfa922ac6e3de7b04ef.jpg

Crypto or bitcoin? You know the saying “there is bitcoin and there is everything else.” Bitcoin is the future.
Bitcoin was first everything else is a step child. (A step child that can make you some money sometimes though lol.)


I have not thought about setting up a vpn to bypass the blocked port.
I will have to figure this one out.

~ For the raspberry pie that I carry with me: I almost bought another router today to plug and bypass their blocked ports. I am off to another city tomorrow so that is a waste of time to do that. Other than that the only thing that I could come up with was to reset their router. (Which is horrible thinking.)

~ Nate over at voltage.cloud is helping me upgrade that node. It is currently syncing the blockchain now.

~The umbrel that totally died…. I think the hard drive is shot so I need a new one. Haven’t thought 2x about that one.


I wonder how ATLien Americans and El Salvadorans think I am when I say:

~ “President Bukele is my president. He has my vote because I no longer vote up north. In less than 100 years he will be in all of the history books as a revolutionary President.”

It takes a good support system from birth to have the confidence to learn, think critically and execute like he does. Many nations or groups of people could/should learn from him.


What if your umbrel node goes down, then a week later your voltage node goes down, then the hotel you are at has blocked port 22 so you can’t ssh into a functioning node that you carry with you? Can I quit then?

I agree 100%. Companies and people that help FOSS developers make bitcoin better. A person that receives the funding ultimately has the choice to do right or wrong with it. (Free will.)

It seems wrong to say “bitcoin is for everyone,” then turn around and say “bitcoin isn’t for companies.”
Then we say “we want bitcoin to stay free and open source, but only if it is funded by the people that aren’t in big companies.”

My 2 questions are:
How does it stay free and open source with no funding?
nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m can’t fund every project that is helping to change the world.

I checked block height 758101. There are 690 transactions…. What exactly should we be looking for? The fact that bitcoin can be sent with 1 sat per v bite and they are sending 154 to 200x that amount?

Aaaahhhh, that is good to know. I won’t be surprised when the International card disappears from my BTCCo store.

It has been 7 months and the mempool has finally went back down to 1sat/vB. Where do I want to send some value today?


That is interesting . Nice work!

Can we choose to have these channels announced or unannounced?

If a person receives 2 different payments from the same node, will the payments be spliced into 1 channel?
Ex: 2 payments of 10k each. Will there be 2 channels of 10k each opened, or 1 for 20k?

The post was a really really long one so I wanted to split it up. It didn’t work out so well. Lets see if it will all fit here.

I will try to explain it. Please keep in mind that there are many many books that cover these topics and they all compliment each other. It is hard to capture it all in an essay post. I will also talk about things that you will say “ya, but you aren’t ansering my question.” My response is… It is relatant to the discussion. I could say that bitcoin isn’t as bad for the environment as governments, but it wouldn’t mean anything without more context.

Here goes: Bitcoin was/is the first digital money. One of the benefits (that I love) is that you can travel with as much as you want without asking permission to have it.

Ex: If we travel on an airplane overseas with more than 10k they want to know where that stack came from. With bitcoin you can have it and no-one knows that you have it. So you can travel with as much as you want without asking mommy for permission.

One more example: I traveled to another country where I hold a new bank account. I transferred money into that account. I then waited 10 calendar days for the bank to deny the transfer and tell me that I had never transferred that much into this account so it was blocked and they wanted proof of where it came from. They call it anti-money laundering. Maybe they are asking me to be “anti-money” because this was not a lot to transfer. (When both people send and receive bitcoin you don’t need to ask a bank. You just send it and they receive it. Any day, any time, any amount.)

Why was I sending this money? I wanted to pay a security deposit for a place to live. Granted this account was only 2 weeks old, but why can’t I transfer? I am the sender and receiver. SSSSSOOOOO the money in the first account came from somewhere legit, but when I transfer it to myself it came from some illegal activity? NO

Why is it like this…. because their name is on the dollars. It is the property of the federal reserve bank. So the money goes into their bank, they own it, they allow you to control it, but you don’t have it in your hands so you have to ask permission to move it from their bank. In this scenario they told me no. So I had to stay in an airbnb until I was able to figure something else out. I used moneygram to finally get the $. They charged $15.00 which isn’t bad, but sending with bitcoin would’ve been cheaper than that plus I wouldn’t have had to ask permission or use a third party bank/service.

With bitcoin you can hold it and send it anytime without asking permission. It is cheaper than any other “service, money transfer agency, or bank.”
It could be Sunday night at 8pm when every way to transfer would be closed, you can take out your phone, open your bitcoin wallet and transfer as much or as little as you want. It can be there in seconds if you use “bitcoin lightning” or less than 10 minutes if you use “bitcoin.”

It has many many more properties, but you understand where I am trying to go.

As for bitcoin vs crypto. They say “there is bitcoin then there is everything else.”
In my analysis, people saw bitcoin as being the new “digital standard of money” and decided to make their own form of digital money which we call them “crypto.”

Crypto-graphy is basically a message that is hidden until it reaches the person or computer it is supposed to be delivered to. In this scenario money is safe until it gets where it needs to be and no-one can intercept it.

What happens when people see the new thing on the block? They want to copy it. They say that they want to make it better. In this case, they say “bitcoin is too slow our crypto will be faster.” Bitcoin doesn’t have this doesn’t have that and so they modify it and call it their name for it. That is admirable, but bitcoin can do everything that the other crypto can do and do it better. It acheives this because it has the best developers in the world (literally the world working on it for FREE.) That is why it has survived this long and demolished their usd to coin price. The people creating “crypto” copied the properties that bitcoin has and slapped their name on it. It’s just like a knock off Rolex. When you know the quality of a Rolex there is no way you would want the Folex. That’s just dumb.

Who buys or creates a Folex? Those that can’t afford a Rolex.

They already don’t have the funds to obtain the quality that bitcoin has so they want to make something cheaper and faster….this enables them to be able to manipulate others into donating to their project. Once people put money into their “crypto-coin” the creators sell all of the coins they own. When others see that major amounts of the coins are selling rapidly, the value drops and your money is gone because they sold you a Folex then disappeared with your money.
Bitcoin can never do this. Why you might ask? Bitcoin doesn’t have a CEO. It has a creator named (Satoshi Nakamoto.) Satoshi gave this project to a group of developers to keep it up to date, fair, free and open source. What does all this mean? There is no head of state, government, bank, CEO, CFO, secretary, treasurer…. There is no person nor corporation to tax, diret, command, coerce, There is no one person resposible for everything. It is empowering for the people. Not the handlers of everything else that is considered money.

Had enough yet? Now to the enironment. This will be short-ish
When I was young my parents taught me “don’t hit girls, don’t abuse your strength, don’t be a bully, talk things out before you fight it out, ect.
Some Governments don’t talk. The one with the biggest and best arms wins. So if you have the power you don’t want to talk. Which one is worse for humans dying? Plugging in computers that run on electricity or wars?
I think war wins this one. Governments don’t just do things by themselves do they? They ask the people first right? I don’t personally know anyone that has ever wanted to bomb other countries willingly. Do you?
With all of this being said…. Gov need money to go to war. They have to pay soldiers, buy supplies, petrol, airplanes, bombs, ammo, helicopters, ships, submarines, fuel, build facilities in other countries so that means leasing land, buying backhoes, tractors, cranes, trucks, cars, humvees, translators, constructing runways, constructing housing, constructing office buildings, food, water… you understand that this list could go on and on and on.

 All of this takes money. Where does the money come from? Your taxes.
Transacting in bitcoin does not have to incur a tax. Working for money which is called fiat (fiat just means fake money) can incur taxes that are used however the gov wants. I don’t personally disagree with that system. I just prefer to win bitcoin into a wallet that I control, free of taxes and goes up in value every 4 years. The last sentence is a mid-level bitcoin discussion. It will make sense as you study bitcoin more.
They could talk it out and come to agreement like some of us were taught when we were young. When you want to control the land, water, crops, minerals, and other resources, people and other governments you go into bully mode (war.) To quote one of the greats: “Bitcoin fixes this.” How? Because we aren’t feeding the system that extracts all of the resources and acquires more and more with our “human capital.”
There could be millions of computers running to keep the bitcoin Network alive, but it would not equal the manpower and machine power to get ready and go to war for 50,000 people, let alone 500,000 people. Not that the scale is one or other. Meaning war or bitcoin, but
it does sort of look that way doesn’t?


Fix the money, fix the world!

You are 100% correct. I did get excited about the email type naming scheme. In all seriousness I would like to know more about WOS. Which bank owns them? I honestly wasn’t aware.


Oh ok, that is the point that you are trying to make. I use hot wallets like I use a watch, a car, or even an ex girlfriend. It’s mine until the battery runs out, the gas is gone, or the rightful owner shows up to take her away. When that happens I have more toys stored in cold storage with my private keys protected. In the mean time…I get a lot of usage and appreciate the great apps that people spend their energy on creating and maintaining for us. What can I say. I’m a tech guy that enjoys doing tech-y things.
