True peer-to-peer Bitcoin trading must be:
- Anonymous (KYC free)!
- But safe!
- Unstoppable!
The @vexl 😎 has it all.
- You don't need to reveal your identity.
- But you utilize your own web of contacts and thus **trust**.
- It is very hard to stop two ordinary people from trading Bitcoin for cash.
You have to try it. But please, **don't use the banks!!**. Do it on the streets and in the cafés. Do it for cash. Banks can and will ask questions and also you can became a white horse for a scammer.

Dear Reddit folks, Nostr plebs are welcoming you.

Hey @BTC Map & @Nathan Day let's figure out how to map a lot of restaurants in Prague that now accepts Bitcoin over Querko

How to tag restaurants that accept Lightning via Qerko in Czechia? · Issue #4283 · teambtcmap/btcmap-data
In Czechia there is a service called Querko (https://www.qerko.com) that allows you to checkout (pay) what you have at the table via app without th...
In OsmAnd it is very useful to display more details. I have it on for all profiles (walk/car/bike/browse).
You have to set this on for every profile you want this.
Go to Configure map -> Select profile you want to edit -> scroll all the way to the bottom -> Details -> Turn on the More details.
You can also turn on some extra stuff there as well.


At OsmAnd you can (and should) download slopes, hillshades and contour lines.
You just go to Download Maps, then you select region and beside standart map you also download Contour lines, hillshades and slopes.


Start using OpenStreetMaps. The map is much better then GoogleMaps, I have GMaps only to check restaurant, which are not covered well on OpenStreetMaps.
1. Download
2. It's local first app, so you have to download the map of the area.
3. OsmAnd has a bit harder UI but there is so much features.
4. The important thing is to realize that you have multiple UI profiles (for car/war/bike/...). So you can set different level of detail to see and define for yourself what is relevant for you in given situation.
More tips in upcoming posts.

So much happened:
1. Bitcoin adoption just skyrocketed at Prague. Many business accepts Bitcoin and Querko (local payment software) now has lightning. We just need to figure out how to put Querko on @BTC Map, because you need some extra app to pay, but from that app you get the LN invoice.
2. Nostr meetup was huge success. Thanks a lot to @Avi Burra for making it happen. So many great nostriches.
3. @BTC Prague was great, the expo just exceeded all my expectations.
4. Now I have a +100 todos to my never-ending to-do list.
Cryptosteel has a sale ať @BTC Prague. If you need a lot of capsules for the Shamir Backup you can get them cheaply without having to pay the shopping.


Nostr meetup at Prague is huuuuge. So many nostriches.


Productivity tips:
- Use
- Every task has to be actionable, this is extremely important. If you have task that describes rather problem then actionable activity, remake that task. Having tasks to do research is fine.
- Every task must have due date. Without this, you will end up with wishlist, but not prioritized task backlog.
- Every evening, do a planning for the next day.
- Don't expect much. Beside limited time, you have also limited energy and finite number of good choices for any given day.

Today I saw a grown man claim that without the State he cannot have wife and a son.
I have told him, that map is not the territory, that the papers he has does not make his son to be his son and his wife to be his wife.
He reacted with insults.
I am depressed, how the slave mentality is rooted deep in the people's minds.

When I began the journey to sovereignty many people laughed and continues to post images of their families on holiday on Facebook.
Then COVID-19 hit and governments went on totalitarian spree.
Some people stopped laughing and start asking how to sneak around...
Then Russia starts it's genocidal war of conquest in Ukraine.
Most of the people stopped laughing and they start asking how to sneak around... or, how to be self sufficient and start prepping...
Some still post their shit of Facebook (and Instagram and TikTok) but lot of them got lesson learned.
Then inflation caused by COVID-19 money printing hit and stocks tanked.
Many people stopped laughing and came to me asking about Bitcoin again...
How does Nostr attracts the masses? How to solve the networking problem?

I have used to procrastinate on news sites a lot.
This helped me:
1. Install Firefox on your phone (I use hardened FF called Fennec)
2. Uninstall all the other browsers (except Tor)
3. Install addon:
4. Add sites to block
5. Do the same for your other devices
7. Enjoy using your new free time meaningfuly

You can also use your `/etc/hosts` (on desktop) file to block it everywhere

Paying with prepaid credit card is hell. It just fails with no proper error message to tell the user what's wrong.
My observations:
- Address must exists (be legit)
- Country in address must match the VPN location
- Tor does not work
- Many VPN does not work neither
- Hardened privacy browsers have problems as well
It is just pain.
We need everyone to accept Bitcoin (Lightning), to participate in the true open monetary network.
This is great!
> Obtainium allows you to install and update Open-Source Apps directly from their releases pages, and receive notifications when new releases are made available.
This can replace the F-Droid quite easily. I love the simplicity of this approach.
But what I will be missing are the anti-feature checks and the duedeligence that F-Droid team provided.
Now, you are trully responsible for auditing apps you install. I like that, however it can be double-edged sword.
Nevertheless, best approach seems to be: find the app on F-Droid, and then add it to the Obtanium. This way you get most recent updates and some checks.
