"I'd rather win ugly than lose pretty" -- 2025 Chicago Bears Mantra

So Chorus is suffering from what many of the various apps suffer from -- I'm going to call it "The Silo of Loneliness." What made a platform like Facebook great, or what X is aspiring to be, is you can find everything within one interface. We're seeing users not interested in jumping between apps so they'll start off with a bang and then just fizzle out. Would like to see something built that incorporates the best app of each class into one platform. Basically we need the Nostr version of Voltron.

And in 2050 Bitcoin will be worth… ?

Beach Butler FTW! Nothing like just showing up to the beach with everything already set up for you.

#gm #nostr — headed to Santa Monica for the local Bitcoin Meetup and then some beach time. Hope everyone enjoys their weekend! #sotd #nowplaying #music #tunestr #musicstr #alternative #altrock

The Official Bitcoin Shake at Steak ‘N Shake!

Just a reminder for anyone still in town for Bitcoin 2025. We're having an impromptu meetup tonight at the newly renamed Bitcoin Bar inside Circa downtown. If you missed their announcment: "Beginning summer 2025, Circa and Golden Gate Hotel & Casino will relaunch bitcoin payment acceptance. Stay tuned for additional bitcoin activations in the months that follow. Through art, technology, and strategic partnerships, Circa is creating a home for the Bitcoin community — and welcoming the world to join." So the local Vegas Bitcoiners group is trying to get as many visitors in there tonight to cement their idea as being a good one. Hope to see you there!

Vegas Bitcoiners Happy Hour, Thu, May 29, 2025, 7:00 PM | Meetup

Join us at Circa on Thursday, May 29th at the NEW Bitcoin Bar for a special Vegas Bitcoiners Happy Hour. Circa Resort & Casino is making history a...

#NosVegas — you know the vibes.

The number of folks I’ve spoken to this week that didn’t know Nostr had Spaces or live video equivalents is easily 75% — it also happens to be the most desired feature when I ask. Think people need to re-evaluate how those features are being promoted.

So Petey Schiff just tried to pitch digital paper gold as a superior money. Again, this guy is a mental midget and needs to quit being given a platform.

Just met @npub1mk6c...awap and may have told him I loved him. I’ve seen him live so many times live I’ve lost count. Support stand-up comedy. Literally one of the reasons I relocated to Vegas.

Kristen! If you're reading this, you're about to see why Steak 'N Shake should join us here on Nostr! Nostrafarians, please zap, share, and leave a comment for the Steak 'N Shake Global Brand Development folks. All zaps on this post will be used to purchase shakes at the Fremont Street Steak 'N Shake next Thursday evening during the Bitcoin For Corporations Meetup (RSVP at link below) to not only show the power of Bitcoin, but the compounding effect of Nostr as a protocol, social media network, and circular economy. You'll see how you can use Nostr to build and foster the Steak 'N Shake brand identity, value, and community within the decentralized ecosystem. Like Bitcoiners, Nostr users are extremely generous and fiercely loyal towards those that share interests. Steak 'N Shake is a pioneer in Bitcoin payments so why not follow suit within the decentralized social media space, too? @Derek Ross @miljan @ODELL @HODL @Guy Swann @fiatjaf @jack mallers @Ben Sessions @roya ୨୧ @Ben Justman🍷 @Nunya Bidness @MartyBent @Dr. The Daniel 🖖 @FLASH @npub1dnzz...x52h @Bitcoin Magazine

Embarrassing to see how few Bitcoiners stay current in the space. The "why would I spend my Bitcoin?" crew -- you can spend FIAT to BTC via @npub1ex7m...vyt9 and have been able to for years. Bet these are the same people that routinely say Lightning sucks or doesn't work.

Can anyone recommend a Bitcoin book that doesn’t touch or focus on the typical self sovereignty angle? Almost looking for books written for a privileged, first world audience. #asknostr

Had someone ask me what Nostr was last night at our Bitcoiner Happy Hour after looking at the Nostr stuff on our free swag table. This is someone that is heavily engrained into Bitcoin X. Talkin' hours of daily usage per their own words. Maybe it's time for Bitcoiners to make another recruiting effort on the ole Twatter?

So are there any legitimate theories for this breakout above $87k?
