Make that 4,001. I apologize for my absence lately; life has thrown a few curveballs my way so I’m learning to bob and alice. I mean bob and weave. Legacy social media gained users in lock-step with the internet itself gaining adoption, right? People were figuring out how to get online, and then how to curate an internet persona, and things like facebook and Twitter were there to help people connect with friends and audiences for the first time. That’s the “zero to one” that got solved. I’m confident that nostr solves many problems with the existing internet. But the question is whether there are throngs of people in search of these solutions. “The masses” don’t need to be happy with mass surveillance and deplatforming, they just need to feel less inconvenienced by those issues than they would feel by learning how to Nostr, in order to remain stuck in the old system. Shower thoughts. Don’t know the answer. PV. View quoted note →

Sup nostriches? It’s been a minute. Is anyone in NYC tonight? I think I saw that our friend @nat brunell is doing a book launch at @PUBKEY if I’m not mistaken. Who’s going? I’m hoping to drop by before catching a late train back to MA. #grownostr #plebchain #asknostr

11:11 good night frens 🫂

Great rip, as usual @ODELL @MartyBent FYI, there are 28 grams in a normal ounce, but #gold (and other precious metals) are measured in “Troy ounces” which contain just over 31 grams of metal. A one-ounce gold coin is about 1.2-1.3 inches in diameter. So yeah, you could fit a bitcoin worth of gold in your pocket 🫡

How do most of you configure your @OCEAN pool payouts? Lightning via Bolt12? Or an on-chain address that you manually update each time you hit the payout threshold (but before ocean finds its next block)? Silent payments? On that note… any plans to add silent payments to Sparrow, @craigraw? #asknostr

Rocking out hard this morning to a bunch of bangers by The Red Clay Strays. Thanks for the killer rec, @MartyBent 🙏 #grownostr #musicstr #artstr

That’s it I’m buying all the bitcoin

Just saw #Bitaxe Sentry for Umbrel. Is there something like this for @Start9 where you could monitor or control the rigs remotely? #asknostr

A very long-overdue GM 🫂 Howdy frens. Been a minute. So catch me up: what are you especially stoked about on the nostr this summer? #plebchain #asknostr

Been mad busy and missin yall hard 🫂

TIL I can use local access to @Start9 and access a self-hosted Robosats without ever leaving my local network… on an iPhone using Safari… am I correct that it’s sufficiently private (assuming my local network isn’t being monitored, and for good measure, using a router-level VPN)… without using Tor browser to play on Robosats?

It’s like I can hear every word of this in their original voices 😂 Yall built something special, @ODELL @MartyBent 🫡 View quoted note →

It might make sense to get some, just in case…

Another question for the #asknostr army 😉 I’m trying to connect BlueWallet to a Tor node. Needs Orbot. Every time I tap “Start VPN” nothing happens. And Orbot isn’t appearing in my system settings as a VPN option. I’ve tried reinstalling the app, too. Anyone got an idea?

GM PV glad you’re here 🤙

Excellent chat, excellent wallet. Very nice work. To your question about an address viewer, I would offer “absolutely yes”. I’ve used this feature since I was a newbie. Example: free withdrawal to on-chain from @strike takes 12-24 hours. I paste my next address and initiate the withdrawal. I want to receive another transaction before the withdrawal arrives. I either open the address viewer and grab the next one, or I reuse addresses any time I have more than one “expected” incoming payment. View quoted note →

GM @walker how do you pronounce FROSTR? 😁 https://fountain.fm/episode/5CsmXonmU0py7AD3N53p
