Well folks it's been fun, but late here, nighty night :-)

Loving Nostr... I run a UK relay (the first UK Paid Relay) at https://nostr.naut.social Price 4000sats.
Which Paid Relays to join? Ones near you, (for speed), some around the world, (for reach). Ones focussed on specific interests/groups you like, (not sure if any exist yet, but they will)
Gentle Reminder UK bitcoiners.
Remember to use your annual CGT exemption to lock in tax free gains every year. Sell one day, buy back the next.
Maths
10K in BTC. It doubles. You sell, you buy, your new base is 20K
Next year, it doubles, you sell half, you buy, your new base is now £30K
Tried Peach Bitcoin app. Liked the idea BUT
I'm 59, phones are way too fiddly small screens for serious shit. Maps, fine. Doom scrolling, also fine. Anything else? Not if I have ANY other option.
Devs - ALWAYS have a web option for those of us with proper screens and keyboards.
This morning I stood on one leg and put my sock on the other foot. RESULT!
10 days since I put my back out:-)
Remember young folks, you can stay up with the tech, but your body will start to bugger you about:-)
10% gains on the week.
BTC is sound.
Keep stacking.
Empires on which the Sun Never Set:-
A) British
B ) Bitcoin
Politics.
It's all about the CENTER!
Leftists : Money doesn't grow on trees and planned economies don't work. You have to be supportive of business.
Libs (Libertarians) and Rightists : If you don't look after the losers as well, they will outnumber you and blow you up. You cannot enforce your beloved property rights without the agreement of those without property.
In the CENTER we like balance. Taxes to invest in common goods like DEFENCE (I NEVER hear Lib Americans complaining about the fact their Armed Forces, Police and Roads are as socialised as European Healthcare). And a business friendly structure so people with good ideas can make money.
BTC going mad volatile.
Time to start trading, or stick with stacking sats?
Who am I kidding. Trading is mainly a mugs game. Stick to stacking. OK, maybe £1000 to try trading. See how long it lasts....:-)
Dear Nostrgram Dev : Please can I have just one day to get used to stability?
First Nostr video seen in the wild (well out of the people I follow loosely on YouTube).
Warning, his style is , well, not low key :-)
Watch out for when Fraudulencers start on the "Make Money Running a Nostr Relay" graft.
Hint : we're not making money. Mine is in the Top 30 on most lists, and at 4000sats, middle price.
There will be a business model in it, but it will probably be a "geek utility" one that ISPs and hosting companies bolt onto their existing infrastructure. OR a premium service with value adds like "curated family safe".
#[0]- did you just zap me? If so, looks like Alby wallet now does zaps:-) And, thank you for my first zap :-)
I use the Alby wallet. When i get sats there is a code with it. Is there any way to use that to know who sent them? Seems odd to unable to say thank you.
