one of the things that i admire most about bitcoin is that it tries to answer some of the hardest questions we can ask.
how do you build money anyone can use and no one can censor? how do you secure it? what does it need to actually work?

i've been rejecting the defaults for all design related plugins, modifications, effects, and blend modes for almost 20 years now.
feels good. always reject defaults. always modify. robot setting have no funk.
working on mint transfers in cashu me native. cdk's cross_mint_transfer_quote_max makes it easy to get a melt + mint quote with ln network fees already allocated.
wdyt?
we must return to the mondo 2000 spirit. 
there's a few layout jumps in cashu me that drive me insane. today is a craft focus day. they will be neutralized. order and beauty will be restored.
cashu shirts are very rare. we print small batches on high quality heavyweight cotton. friends and family get them first. leftovers go to anyone who donates to opencash to fund ecash r&d.
no reprints. 
spent ecash hack day taking the fedimint kotlin bindings and wiring the fedimint protocol into cashu me.
fun experiment. real joy seeing both protocols living side by side in the same wallet
it's so beautiful. i want to shed a silent tear. @Umbrel ☂️
i am deeply moved by this kate bush interview where she explains the song ‘houdini’. love, protection, and hope all in one gesture.
we need to build bitcoin payments that match merchant and customer expectations. we should be aiming to build wallets where there's no ux difference between apple pay and a btc payment.
go back to your designed and cut ass much visual weight as possible. it does wonders.
