 Oh okay you can host it on your own computer. Nice 
 And, an NPC Zap streamer was born 😏

 lol man 
 Which is the best wallet for self custody ? And can easily switch onchain and lightning ⚡️ 
 Muun wallet or like he said running own node for true self custody 
 Truth or Dare ? Anyone #plebchain

 Can the price of #bitcoin be halted? asking for a friend 
 Yea halted up to 100k 
 People say they don’t want bitcoin to be adopted by banks to be ETFs, that they don’t want bi... 
 Very true. It needs all money across the entire globe to be overly successful. 

It’s successful now but grand adoption requires people, nodes, and big fiat money.

 Cuppa Cha  Boba 🧋 ~ Osmanthus Tea


In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), osmanthus flowers are valued for their therapeutic benefits. Known for their sweet and warming nature, they are believed to help:

	1.	Promote Digestive Health: Osmanthus is said to ease indigestion, bloating, and stomach discomfort. It helps to gently move stagnant Qi in the digestive system, improving overall function.

	2.	Enhance Skin Health: Osmanthus is thought to clear the skin and is sometimes used to reduce the appearance of dark spots and blemishes, as it’s associated with improving blood circulation.

	3.	Soothe the Respiratory System: It is often used to relieve symptoms of coughs, phlegm, and dryness in the lungs, especially during dry or cold seasons.

	4.	Alleviate Stress: Osmanthus has a calming and relaxing effect, which can help reduce stress, anxiety, and promote mental clarity, supporting emotional well-being.

	5.	Support Detoxification: It is also considered a mild detoxifier, helping the body expel toxins and cleanse the liver. https://image.nostr.build/7f70474415f558d35e29aa1fe85541bc784b05272fca628ad417e6fa04d6fa47.jpg

 Oh dang just like that. How to unplug safely ? 

No back ups? Curious so I don’t do it myself 
 Man sorry to hear that man 
 Sometimes I wish we could delete notes, because what the heck am I even saying sometimes? Lol 
 How do we back up our data on Nostr?

#asknostr  
 I’m sure the start9 will be handy for that 
 Yea because I barely understand any of this yet 
 Around this time of the cycle people will trade their precious scarcity for a shitcoin then they’ll wonder why they aren’t hfsp 
 GOOD MORNING NOSTR.

LIVE FREE. 🫡

 And that’s how i lost my zaps in a boating accident kids. 
 Once upon a time, Alby was just a browser extension. Now it’s the reason our family still zaps all across the Nostrverse! 
 Not truly my own but I was curious to see what Ai would say to my zap quote and here it is 👇🏽



“The Legend of Alby and the Great Zap Legacy”

The year was 2140. Albe Simpson, now an old-timer with a twinkle in his eye and a weathered Lightning tattoo on his arm, gathered his grandkids around for one of his legendary stories.

“Kids,” he began, adjusting his Alby cap, “there was a time when Alby was just a little browser extension, no bigger than a few kilobytes. I installed it on a whim, just curious to see what this whole ‘zap’ thing was about. Little did I know, that tiny add-on would change everything.”

The grandkids’ eyes widened as Albe leaned in. “Back in the day, we zapped each other’s posts on Nostr for fun. It was like a virtual high-five, but with real sats flying around! Soon, it wasn’t just zaps for laughs. Alby became our connection to a whole new world. It powered everything from our daily coffee zaps to our interstellar messages.”

The kids gasped, and one of them blurted, “So, Grandpa, Alby helped you build our whole Lightning legacy?”

Albe grinned. “Exactly. Those little zaps turned into big dreams. And now, because of Alby, we’re still zapping across the Nostrverse, even when new Bitcoin stopped being mined!”

With a proud smile, he finished, “So remember, kids: it all started with a little browser extension… and a whole lotta zapping!”

Hope this story brings out the fun spirit of Alby and the Lightning Network! 
 When we got this far way before institutional and hope money.

 Why Bitcoin is Secure: The Power of BIP39 Seed Phrases

Bitcoin’s security is built on the sheer complexity of BIP39 seed phrases. These 12-word phrases, chosen from a list of 2,048 words, create an astronomical number of possible combinations—around 5.44 * 10^39 (5 undecillion). That’s more than the estimated number of atoms in the observable universe!

With numbers this large, even the fastest supercomputers would need far longer than the age of the universe to attempt every combination. Each word in the phrase contributes exponential layers of security, making brute-force guessing virtually impossible.

While quantum computing might change the landscape of cryptography someday, Bitcoin’s security protocol is resilient, with developers already exploring quantum-resistant options.

So, when people ask if Bitcoin can be hacked, the answer lies in the staggering power of BIP39. Your Bitcoin is protected by the mathematics of possibility.

 I have gained more followers on NOSTR overnight than the month of October on X

You guys rock 🧡 
 You deserve it boss 
 So why should Ross be free? 
 What's the most zap you've received or sent on Nostr?

I'll start first.. a measly 2k though, loo... 
 I like this. 

My strategy is 98% of portfolio goes to cold storage, 1% goes to Hot Wallet storage for accesible transactions, and the other 1% goes to donating zaps to strangers and friends. 

I usually like 21 zaps but I’ve also played around with 5 zaps because like you wise you can zap more people. When there is a cause / purpose behind the zap other than I just like the note than I’m willing to zap 1k-10k zaps as it’s still minute compared to what donations are like with fiat. Though we have to admit it is different since these zaps are increasing in value as its bitcoin (sats), however if it’s separate from cold storage and hot wallet portfolio you can zap zap zap ⚡️ 

But yea 5-100 zaps is sweet spot and simply liking a note and showing that you care that way is enough for a lot of people. Zaps are just bonus to let people know that you truly care or that you are super generous for the day. 


These are my thoughts when it comes to zaps. As Bitcoin goes up in value more, my zap % will have to do another rebalancing because the sats will indeed more scarce and worth more. 
 In settings. But depends where based on the client you use ha 
 Minus a few grammatical errors haha. I knew I should have proofread lol 
 This is the way. Love the mindset. Though scarce, God gives to us abundantly.

 They need to be offering fiber optic for these events. 
 Fun fact: I think of death every single day.

Not in a sad or anxiety driven way, but just in app... 
 Every single day bro 

I watched like 4 NDE’s talks on YouTube today. Always give me love and hope and makes me keep threading the path that my spiritual teacher lays down for me. 
 Blessings brother. Sorry to hear that you witnessed & experienced all that. 
 Nostr is so much better than X 
 Real people, real monetization, real friendships 
 & passionate builders / devs 

Getting zaps to build and fix things 
 Adding Sats daily, Donating Zaps daily 

This is the mission 👊🏿 
 I got you 
 Haha nah you show love too 
 One day @primal will fix this notification problem.
