Over the past 6 months, thanks to Bitcoin I have reassessed my privacy and security and opted to move away from big tech and secure my sats. Here is a list of tasks that have helped me achieve sovereignty over my data and privacy.
- Built a small PC with a Raspberry Pi in a SNES case with Umbrel.
- Installed electrs and bitcoin core to run my own node.
- Upgraded to Coldcard mk4 with off-site backups.
- Setup Sparrow over my own node and Tor.
- Migrated to self-hosting my data on Nextcloud instance (learned some basics with DNS and HTTPs) bye iCloud.
Next on the list is:
- Buy a Yubikey for 2FA
- Move to GrapheneOS and Google Pixel
- Read OSINT Techniques by Michael Bazzell
How has Bitcoin changed your security and privacy?

Do you recommend hosting your own data (nextcloud) on the same node as your BTC node? Are there any security risks?

Day 2 of migrating to Nextcloud from iCloud. Feels good taking back control of my data and the UI feels very nice

Applying time preference to preparing my steaks. I may need to wait 1 hour, but it’s worth it. 🥩

GM Nostr, hope you have an amazing day!
I wonder when people will stop normalising the regression of human growth. Turning heaters off and eating canned tuna in 2023 because the middle class can’t afford the bill shouldn’t be accepted. Australia is so delusional and complacent with living standards.
A lot of people accept that they can’t afford heating, red meat, housing or healthcare. Inflation has been accepted in our modern day and “price inflation” is to blame.
