"Not your pity but your courage has so far saved the unfortunate." Nietzsche was a critic of a system that glorified the weak. Don't shoot the messenger.

In "Fiat Food" by Matthew Lysiak another gargantuan scam is revealed and the reasons behind are explained clearly.

"Bitcoin: Separation of Money and State" by SatsJoseph provides a nice overview about the topic and references a lot of further readings for bitcoiners that are interested in the topic of separation of money and state. It also includes funny memes and the "Ten Commandments" for bitcoiners ;-)

I did not yet heard the N word on the stage at the Lugano’s Plan ₿ Forum: Nostr :-)

I guess you would be an outsider if you not pay with lightning at the Lugano’s Plan ₿ Forum :-)

Yes, paying with lightning is real in Lugano.

All the bad influence fiat money has in our society is nicely described in "Fiat Ruins Everything" by @jimmysong

On twitter these pictures of public destination boards showing error messages or any other unwanted internals have been collectibles. Are they as well on Nostr? This one taken inside a tram seems to run on a Windows version that is not really supported anymore.

Everything about all the ledgers and the difference between transaction speed versus settlement speed you can read about in "Broken Money" by @Lyn Alden. It is also the first printed book I have read mentioning Nostr.

"A Functional Approach to Java" by Ben Weidig is so far the best book about Java I read in 2023.

All anarchocapitalist Bitcoin entrepreneurs should be aware of the quintessence from "The Arsonists" by Max Frisch: It is useless to be nice to an arsonist because in the end he will do what is his nature and this is burning down houses. Hence playing nice with bureaucrats and regulators is also futile because in the end they will do what is in their nature and that is castrating and destroying your business. Anarchocapitalist are following natural law.

I really like chapter 13 from "The philosophy of Bitcoin" by Álvaro D. María. It only contains the word "nothing" and is the answer to the question what the states can do against Bitcoin.

A majority of reachable bitcoin nodes are running through the Tor network, but there are still "crypto companies" like Bitrefill that somehow think that using IP addresses is a reliable practice to detect where their users are located :-(

I learned some interesting details about the Vikings and modern time speculators while reading Fraudcoin by @Rune Østgård

Winning without a bloody battle is the highest competence according to "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu. That is what UASF did on August 1st 2017.

The "problem" with Bisq is that it is a hodler square in the first place. If price is down no one is stelling near that price ;-)

@Relai Alex are there plans to open source the Android client app of Relai so that the app can be easily installed on a degoogled smartphone? Threema and ProtonMail did the same.

Read about a lot of space-related and philosophical ideas in this book "Abundance Through Scarcity" by Ioni Appelberg.

Currently I think that coracle.social is the best web based Nostr client that can be used with Tor.

I do not consider to buy anything at online platform that does not allow me to browse the catalog of items beforehand anonymously using Tor.
