Hey #nostr, I’m an experienced penetration tester/cyber security consultant who wants to voluntarily help out #nostr or #Bitcoin projects. If you need security testing to make sure what you’ve built is secure or want security advice throughout development then I’m your man. I’m always happy to sanity check designs/concepts at earlier stages too. If you or someone you know is building then DM me or kindly re-post so that someone who is building sees! I want a future for my family where financial freedom and freedom of speech prevail so this is my way of contributing. LFG!

It’s the UK election next month and it drives me insane watching politicians whip up so much anger about things that don’t really matter. The money is fundamentally broken yet nobody talks about it, even if it’s the cause of so many societal issues. This year, instead of raging about pledges and who to vote for, I’m just going to contribute to the #bitcoin and #nostr ecosystems. Those will be the lifeboats for people when the existing system inevitably worsens. #election #politics 

Remember that when politicians pledge to keep inflation stable at 2% in the run up to the election, they are pledging that half of your purchasing power will be gone within 35 years. #election #inflation 

Ultimately, they’re incentivised to keep doing more of the same unfortunately. That and the fact that it’s very difficult to see that there’s a better system (#Bitcoin) from the lens of another system. It takes a lot of open-mindedness to get it.

Hey #introductions, I’m not brand new to #nostr but never got round to doing this. Looking forward to connecting with fellow plebs on here!
I’m also really passionate about volunteering my cyber security/pen testing skills to Nostr and #Bitcoin projects (big or small) to do my bit. So if anyone’s building and needs support, advice or security testing then hit me up!
Love this. You are what you focus your energy on. I’ve now started to focus a lot of my time on family, #nostr and #bitcoin (rather than being bogged down by all the wrong in the world) and I feel way better for it. View quoted note →
Inflation and years in which your purchasing power is halved:
2% (the target) = 35 years
4% = 17 years
7% = 10 years
10% = 7 years
14% = 5 years
17% = 4 years
20% = 3.5 years
#Bitcoin fixes this.
@primal brings such a beautiful UI/UX to nostr. Between that and the interesting early-adopters here, nostr is fast becoming my go-to for all online discussions and news. #nostr #primal #digitaltownsquare
This is bang on. Private companies are incentivised to use centrally controlled algorithms to sew hate, controversy and division to boost user engagement. Open-source algorithms, freedom of choice and decentralisation is the key to positive discussions online. I believe #nostr is hope.

Really excited about this Layer 2 solution! It’s still early days but I firmly believe that new innovations in the space will drive #bitcoin scaling at higher layers. View quoted note →
Your money is safe in the bank … 

Deflation is the natural order of a free market. If it’s easier, quicker and cheaper to produce food, energy and shelter in the 21st century then why are they more expensive now than 100 years ago? It’s because they’re priced in a money that’s worth less compared to before. #Bitcoin fixes this.
