I didn't hear anything back on this. Does anyone know who I can reach to follow up? View quoted note →

I had a lightning transaction 'complete' between @Minibits and @Cashu, but the funds didn't register on the other side. Both using the same mint. Anybody I can chat with over DM to share transaction details and troubleshoot? #asknostr

If you are of the opinion that owning bitcoin makes you better than other people, I am here to say that will not gain you the respect you so desperately desire.

Have you ever met a bitcoiner who thinks every bitcoin user needs to hold their sats on a cold wallet and maintain their private key? As the technology stands today this is not only unrealistic, it's mathematically impossible. Being a utopian purist does not help this. There are scaling solutions, but they all require trade-offs. Some of the tech is clunky, but we are making progress with federations, lightning, and ecash. If you care about bitcoin adoption the process is incremental, not zero to one hundred. Meet people where they are at and show them one step at a time 🤙

Today someone showed me a feature on snapchat that allows you to search for public posts geographically. It's interesting because you're able to zoom in on places like Iran, Gaza Strip and see what life is like there. This can be a good check on the usual propaganda outlets. For example, Iran is far more developed than many in the west realize and I didn't see any posts about the ongoing conflict. The conditions in Gaza were unsurprisingly terrible, but there are some beautiful families doing their best. I thought to myself about what they might be able to do with bitcoin if I sent them some. I also wondered if there was some way to teach them about nostr. I'm going to reach out to one of these families and see where it goes. We don't speak the same language, but that doesn't matter anymore. If the tech we are building is useful at all, maybe it will be useful to people who are in bad situations, but still have internet access. I hope you have a blessed Sunday 🙏

Very interesting case. Especially the age of the hacker and how they caught him
