If you are using Raivo as 2fa app on iPhone I suggest to transition to some other app. App was sold out, privacy policy unclear, messed up all my keys (accidentally wiped local storage). I am going with 2FAS app - open source privacy focused.

Death industry is very large, everyone participates at some point.

I wish there was non custodial prediction market on Bitcoin. In the meantime I think the best alternative is Polymarket (

) It is using usdc on polygon which is some Ethereum layer 2 or whatever. They claim it is non custodial and user has private key in the browser and can export it. No need to use metamask or any desktop software. So the only trusted part is switching from Bitcoin to poly usdc that has to go through something like sideshift or similar where they have custody during the exchange.

Decentralized Github. "Radicle is an open source, peer-to-peer code collaboration stack built on Git. Unlike centralized code hosting platforms, there is no single entity controlling the network. Repositories are replicated across peers in a decentralized manner, and users are in full control of their data and workflow." Design looks good to me. Written in Rust, uses modern cryptography (Ed25519 for identity, noise protocol for metadata communication). Architecture looks reasonably simple and extensible.

Sovereign code infrastructure.

Bitcoin is an amazing success story in open source software and community. Let's not let it stagnate, but keep it vibrant by improving its already amazing properties with restored (and renewed) script!

Use your Bitcoin. We saturated the curious and early adopters. Now bring the utility. Great article by Roy Sheinfeld. I would add this: 1. In western countries "better saving tech" is also great utility 2. Cross border remittances are great utility 3. Big yes to connecting creators (musicians, writers..) with consumers more directly w/o middleman. This has great potential. In these segments the middlemans are taking too much. But also we can connect creators and consumers more directly - fountain.fm is not just for consuming podcasts but also for communicating with the podcasts. Let's spread this model to other intustries. 4. Big strength of Bitcoin comes from the fact that it cannot be easily confiscated or devalued. But this is something people don't appreciate until it's too late. Paradoxically people in coconut countries has advantage here because they more clearly understand the issues with fiat money. https://medium.com/breez-technology/orange-pilling-has-stopped-working-4a407252c7a3
