Bitcoin Core v30 adoption seems to be going faster than most major versions before it. I think people (mostly the ones who aren't vocal on Elon's website) are upgrading more timely to make a point.

True. A single $3 coffee transaction can also be considered spam, at least by *some* people, compared to settling e.g. 500 different $3 transactions from a second layer in a single tx. Similarly, that second-layer tx settling 500 coffee payments will also be considered spam by *some* people, because the same second layer may be used to trade monkey JPEGs or whatever the hell the market thinks is worth something at any given time. To each their own, as long as they pay the fees. View quoted note →

Two different wedding guests left us UTXOs as a gift. Both are old friends of mine, from long before bitcoin times. Feels good, man!

Is there any non-KYC debit card with bitcoin top-ups that still works?

Every time I try to get reasonable amounts (e.g. ~100 USD) out of Cashu via Lightning, any app or Mint I try is giving me issues (every single time so far). Interestingly, every app will accept my incoming Lightning payments immediately and with zero issues, and will only fail the outgoing transactions. Am I the only one experiencing this? I also tried sending directly to Kraken for good measure. Their node isn't exactly short on liquidity or channels. However, our own node also has plenty of incoming capacity for low amounts like these.
