GM, let's get these nuts.

Finally got to jam on some new eNuts designs. I'll be dialing back on sharing concepts here until the dev team gives them a look. I love publicly exploring, but I'd rather not tease UIs that might not make it. You can still have a peek on github though:

Been managing mints more on my ecash apps lately. At first, I assumed it wouldn't be so common, but the more I hop between apps and mints the more I see how key it is. Thinking about suggesting designs that put mint lists and swaps in a more prominent moving forward.
If I think too hard about censorship-resistant peer-to-peer electronic cash, it feels like I'm floating on air. A life spent helping to build a monetary system beyond governmental control is a life well spent.
Exploring some enhancements for the @eNuts ⚡️🌰 send flow. My current focus is on unifying the processes for sending lightning and ecash. I believe that eliminating the need for users to choose between ecash or lightning before reaching the send screen is an improvement. What do you think?
Wu wei is found in design flow state.
Was reading Satoshi's emails and decided to stop halfway. Might sound corny, but I don't want it to be over. I like having new stuff from him to look forward to. Saving a bit for the future...
Reflecting on 14 years since Satoshi Nakamoto's unveiling of the #Bitcoin logo. The Bitcoin "₿" turns 14 today.
Trying to make sending ecash on eNuts easier. What do you guys think about this flow? More details:

Great art lies in the subtlety. Seeing Bitcoin-inspired design without the cliché giant 'B' is refreshing. https://orangesociety.co/
This goes very hard.
My guy was e/acc in the 20th century. No idea is original. 
I'm really impresed with @primal's iOS design. Full screen feed display is such a nice feature and so well executed. The micro animation when floating action button returns is buttery smooth. I notice when iOS apps have a certain magical feeling they're usually built with Swift.

Picked up "Working in Public: The Making and Maintenance of Open Source Software". The hardcover is beautifully printed.
I am once again deep in the world of designing around xpubs and derivation paths. How can we design experiences where the user never needs to know what these terms mean?
Dove into NUT-11 P2PK over this Sunday, it's pretty cool. You can lock a token to a public key so only its owner can claim it. Got me thinking about designing this into #eNuts. Still wrapping my head around the more advance bits like multisigs and timelocks. More to come!
Note: this is just a prototype, this feature doesn't yet exist in eNuts. Still needs a lot of consideration, but you can check out the NUT-11 documentation and try out eNuts on Testflight!

Censorship resistant peer to peer electronic cash is non-negotiable. The transactions will continue broadcasting until moral improves.
My favorite bitcoin designer.
