@Blink Wallet was my go to lightning wallet until they required kyc to send more than $125. Was this due to pressure from the Us gov? If so, this is an example of how even the best bitcoin businesses will always bend the knee to the threat of aggression from the government.

I see some irony in the fact that the most bullish bitcoiners don’t talk about price. Pricing bitcoin in the dollar(pieces of paper) only makes sense in the fiat world. If you recognize that we are transitioning to a bitcoin standard then you understand this.

Just did my own oil change for the first time. 15 years of driving and I’ve always trusted someone else to do my oil changes. My last vehicle’s life came to an end when a professional mechanic overfilled my oil and led to a busted head gasket. I’ve realized that being handy and having basic skills is critical in a number of future scenarios, which is part of why I have been learning how to do things myself and not hire someone else, even if it takes me more time or economically my time would be better spent working. Stack sats and stack skills is the way.

The hardest part about creating is just making the time and space for it. You can’t get into a flow state before you put yourself in the chair or the place where you create.

This is why I’m still on Twitter 🤣

An hour on the bike does such wonders for energy, creativity, and focus. Stoked to get back to work.

Freedom is not free. It comes at a cost.

Hating on bitcoin gets boosted on Twitter because bitcoiners interact with it. Sometimes I can’t help it either but typically when I see bitcoin FUD I think to myself, “HFSP” and then I close twitter and open Nostr.

Just finished getting grilled by border agents coming into the US. As I was walking away, I overheard one of the agents say to the other, “Did you capture all of that information?” Feels good to be back in the land of the free. 🖕

I try not to complain about travel nonsense but these bag vultures…

Listening to podcasts definitely counts as “research”

Camp Nakamoto good vibes with bitcoiners in nature

Two of the best things about Europe- walkable cities and fantastic sauna culture.

This one is a little bit controversial- I typically prefer to use my card if a merchant or restaurant is not holding the bitcoin but I wanted to give this service a try. Bitcoin payments are becoming mainstream by the day and 3rd party platforms are enabling us to hold less and less fiat. In the US, Square just announced bitcoin payments will be integrated into their POS system, which means accepting bitcoin as payment doesn’t require any technical ability or custody. Whether it’s good or bad that bitcoin adoption is happening from the top down is up for debate, but certainly we are living through a massive transition in how the financial system functions.

Gold down 99% against bitcoin in the last 10 years 🤯

In the last 2 years bitcoin has taken me all over the world. Leaving Prague today feeling grateful to be part of this network! @alo.in.motion is becoming a bitcoiner 👌

If a merchant or business accepts bitcoin it’s in your economic interest to pay in sats. For one, the price of bitcoin has far less potential if it ends up like gold- captured and centralized. Not to mention you have far less freedom if there’s a bank or regulator between your money and the goods and services you want to acquire. Bitcoin was a medium of exchange before it was a store of value. What bitcoin is gets decided at the individual level.
