Welcome to Nostr! Check out my memes if you want. They're all homemade and Nostr exclusive 😁. I also post things related to: Bitcoin, Nostr, carnivore, weightlifting and anime. Feel free to follow if you like my stuff
Hi West Major, and welcome to #nostr! 🤓
✅ Great, you've already set up your #lightning address! I just ⚡️zapped you some #welcomesats 😊
I can also help people check their #nostr address is working (if they have one). Nostr addresses are not mandatory, but some people like using them to add a personal touch to their profile. Once you've set it up, just post a note including #checkmyaddy and I'll check it again for you. If you like, I can give you one for free at "yourname@minestr.app". Just get in touch! 😊

Welcome to #nostr
is that the move? how easy? did you need to get lightning liquidity? would you recommend this to a nonbitcoiner as the way to accept Bitcoin via Shopify?
Welcome to the world of decentralized social communication! Welcome to Nostr. 💜🫂🤙🏻
also very curious to hear the answer to this for the sake of onboarding some friends who use shopify
this is the mission and where I want to spend my Bitcoin
Hello Nick and welcome to nostr
Do Square next, please. I want to see brick and mortar stores accepting lighting payments easily.
Hey, Nick. Glad to have you. I don’t think I’d fit in your shirts, but they look well made and you seem passionate about making them. I’ll keep you in mind during the holidays in hopes you have lightning payments set up by then.
Will you accept bitcoin?
Thanks for making things and being here.
Learning so much about American manufacturing tonight
MOAR SAAR!!
Jack doesn't need this! 🤣
but yesterday I agree
DM him to ask we're working on it
DM him your order and tell him you want to pay in bitcoin
Thanks! 🫡
🤘🤘
Yes what he said ^ I haven’t figured out how to set it up on our Shopify site yet, but you can DM your order (need your size, shirt, address and email) and we can do it through zaps
Thanks Luke!
Thank you!
Thanks Jordan!

Hi! Welcome to Nostr. Is western wear like jeans and cowboy hats?
Shirts rn, but more is the goal long term
it's a style, but as someone who lives in the West it absolutely makes sense
Welcome to Nostr! You’ll find that this is a great community and appreciative of your business ethic.
I’m an artist and have gotten design commission work here, as well as making roll-up holders for pens and gadgets. I started sewing them and posted photos of them on Nostr, adding the hashtag #penroll at the end of my post.
Folks started ordering them pretty quick after I posted a couple pictures, and accepting lightning payments has been perfect because nearly everyone here wants to pay with sats.
People here are 100% willing to pay for quality, and there’s a lot of top notch stuff here.

I'm Nick - the founder of West Major. I'm on this earth to make the highest quality, western wear for men, in America. Western wear was born in the U.S.A., and most of it isn't made here anymore, and I want to change that.
I hear nostr is the place to be, so we're going to give it a shot. If you love high quality shirts and western wear, I'm your guy. #introductions

Welcome.
Let us know if you need help setting up bitcoin payments for your store.
Welcome bro! I’m going to check out your wares now 🫡
🇺🇸
Too much energy is spent trying to get the attention of big brands to adopt Bitcoin as a treasury asset, while almost no one is talking about the businesses that actually stand to gain the most from Bitcoin adoption—small, independent companies that make things Bitcoiners actually want.
Bitcoiners are a rabid customer base who want to buy Quality Products from Quality Businesses that align with their values. I’ve felt this firsthand with Peony Lane and can only imagine what could happen if more small businesses saw the opportunity in front of them.
The reality is, we as individuals have no control over Bitcoin’s price. We can’t magically make adoption happen overnight. But we do have the power to speed up the transition to a circular Bitcoin economy by doing what we already do—spending our money with businesses that are open to Bitcoin.
Here’s the thing: People follow incentives. Businesses chase where the demand is. If more companies see Bitcoiners as a dedicated, high-intent customer base, they’ll naturally start integrating Bitcoin payments—not because they read a book about Austrian economics, but because Bitcoiners showed up and proved that Bitcoin is good for business.
That’s why I’m working on a new project with
@PDJ where we travel the country meeting founders where they are at, to see how we can introduce them to bitcoiners and bitcoiners to them. We want to make it as easy and obvious as possible for them to adopt bitcoin because once that happens, we think bitcoiners will take the wheel
Nick at
@West Major was our first trip. He was blown away with the support he saw on NOSTR instantly and figured out how to integrate Bitcoin payments on his site with the help of random nostriches (not us). You'll see/learn more about this trip in the weeks to come, but lets just say, it made me extremely bullish about this mission we are on.
We all want to exit the fiat matrix. We all want to live off Bitcoin. The fastest way to make that a reality? Make Bitcoin commerce impossible to ignore. We can make the change that we want to see.
View quoted note →Hell yeah, man! Looking forward to following this journey.
Hell yeah, love to see it!
Welcome! I’ve got two WM shirts and love them. 🤙
