Giving #nostur a try again. So many cool features to try 😎

GM ☕️ Logged into X/twitter yesterday after quite a while and was completely overwhelmed by the noise. Not the number of conversations or tweets, but the sheer screeching noise of ads, trigger clips and injected content irrelevant to me. 🤮 It’s beyond me how people use that platform everyday 🤯. But hey, to each their own. 🫠 #nostr

If you had to invent a drink called The Nostr, what would the ingredients be?

Recently rewatched Black Sails. It holds up quite nicely and the plot lines around self-sovereignty and freedom are absolutely 🔥 🏴‍☠️

This. nostr feels like what late 90s/early 2000 internet felt like. 💜 View quoted note →

Today, I found myself in the unfortunate situation of having to pay something in USDT, which I’ve never done before because, you know, #bitcoin only. But alas, the counterparty wants tether or fiat. The experience so far: - Acquiring tether on an exchange. No big deal. 📈 But I need to get it into a wallet. - Google USDT mobile wallet. Virtually all sites I visit offer me either a) a shady 💩 coin wallet (I’m not downloading that) or b) an official 💩 coin exchange backed wallet (I‘m not downloading that and then go through KYC either, thank you). - Contemplating downloading Casa Wallet, cause that’s one of the few brands I recognize in a sea of shitcoinery ⛵️ - Go to official tether site. No app download link, but I can register an account. Maybe it’s a web wallet? 🤔 Turns out it’s for a trading account and you need to trade >$100k or you can’t register. Yeah nah, thanks. 😂 - Give up and contemplate for a moment if it’s a layer 8 issue and I’m cognitively challenged, or whether I‘m just spoiled by the #bitcoin ecosystem where shit just works™️ - Decide it’s probably both and pay in Fiat 🤦 Thank you for reading my blog. Please 👍 and subscribe. 🔔

Anyone got some good resources on ASIC powered space heaters? Considering buying one #mining #bitcoin

💯 But the hard part is taking a step back from all the noise and realizing it. View quoted note →

This is why I’m on #nostr. Out of the blue a new and wholesome note shows up in my feed. No rage- or clickbait. Just interesting stuff. View quoted note →

“Hey how’s your tx confirmation going”

Wonder how popular lightning ⚡️ withdrawals on exchanges will become now that them fees are so high 🤔 📈
