>**Disclaimer**: The following text is just a personal opinion. As I was having my breakfast and browsing daily news my attention was caught on a Instagram's reel from a page I follow, the description says: >#ArmitaGaravand, aged 16, was taken unconscious from the subway after being beaten by the Iranian Morality Police. According to witnesses, the Iranian agents did not like the way she was wearing her hijab over her hair. When she refused to fix it, she was beaten by the agents. She is in a coma in the hospital. [...] As human being, it is disrespectful to not care somehow. We are living in an environment that does provide means to know about almost everything but at the same time discourage the tools that could provide us the means to act. Bitcoin could change this since it does create a direct possibility of action. Not pushed by a governmental or coporates agendas but from individuals to individuals. We might have the opportunity to help someone somewhere else by the click of a button. As I researched a way to help I end up finding this: But I'd still be helping an organization, a third party, that despite being serious about their cause, it does not satisfy my wish to direct help the victim (or at least their parents) and even if I could do international bank transfer to their accounts, my name would possibly end up in a Iran's black list or something like that. I'd fear for myself and especially my family. I feel that I must end my rants here but the message will stay, hopefully somehow create incentives for more people to understand how could Bitcoin help in the battle against tyranny. #bitcoin #btc #humanrights #freedom #iran #free #help

A funny experiment with AI art... It's supposed to be Bitcoin imposing fear on Central Bank Managers.... You are free to use the image however you like. #bitcoin #btc #pleb #plebchain #nostr image

I started a thread here: The basic question is: How much are people in El Salvador using Bitcoin on a daily basis? I found some some info from PWC report from Oct 2021, it's in the link. But I couldn't find anything newer. #bitcoin #btc #elsalvador #plebchain #zap #zapathon #nostrich

I was reading some notes about Binance and came to my mind we might be facing the downfall of every major exchanges... As hard as they try with work with some kind of government regulation, more they end up digging their own pit. It's possible to understand people like CZ (I must confess I admire him), who wanted to achieve some sort of agreement between two different worlds, but now might be the time to face and accept that there is no space crypto exchanges as they will always become a target from government departments. - CONT.

Well... I'm not sure how many "social networks" most users here use at same time. I'm currently on YT, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok (barely used) and here (Nostr). I'll probably take a look at Threads, but I don't think I'll have enough time to consume it. Point is, I'm posting about Nostr on my social networks... Let's see if I can make some of my friends to use it. #nostr #pleb #grownostr #nostrich

Working on several small (and simple) video tutorials for news users on Nostr... 1. Still studing some clients but already made some recordings. 2. I'll probably focus on Amethyst and Snort (sorry Damus, I don't have an iPhone...) I'll describe the common logic alongside Nostr clients and then details on each. 3. It is focused to bring more people and to make them fell more comfortable at first use as well to understand the basics about keys. Youtube, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and TiTok, I shall release the videos on these platforms. I don't have many followers but I believe there's a potential to reach some people.

What I noticed on my first day on Nostr. First. Opened my eyes to the reality of an internet economy based on tips. Ads will certainly keep existing but certainly less intrusive. Second. I was already a libertarian, but I was still believing that a libertarian society would only thrive in a matter of century... Now I'd say it's a matter of decades. Third. This ecosystem (Nostr) despite being on its first stages, due it's descentralized nature (and ideology) will be able to keep up growing constantly. It does have user experience issues but I'm confident developers will fix as long the ecosystem keeps growing. #nostr #future #community #socialmedia #technology #tipconomics

Installed Android Studio on my PC just to use Amethyst.... So far the most interesting client for Nostr. Tried 'Gossip' and 'Snotr' here but I didn't enjoyed the exprience. #nostr #amethyst #noobdays
