Liquid serves a purpose and I always keep some balance in it. Liquid comes in very handy when there's onchain congestion. The lightning swaps with boltz.exchange is a game changer.

That's a shame. I was hoping there would be a Thai equivalent to lightningpay.nz. Somewhere to quickly and easily convert back and forth between lightning Bitcoin and Thai baht.

"In 2013, there was a poll taken that asked young people under 35 in this country, are you proud of the United States? 85% said yes.
The same poll taken five months ago, 18% said yes.
So somehow, during the administration of these two presidents, an entire generation of Americans has lost pride in our country and a hope in their own futures. And they they feel that way because they see what's happening.
They can't get into a home. This is the first generation in history in America that is going to live worse lives than their parents.
They see the vitriol that you saw here, the division, the polarization that makes them disgusted with politics.
They're seeing the corrupt merger of state and corporate power that has transformed our agencies from the CIA, health agencies, the environmental agencies, into sock puppets for the industries they're supposed to regulate.
They're seeing the destruction of our soils, the destruction of our air and water.
They're watching this happen, and the politicians do nothing about it except for hate on each other.
If you want more of the same, you should vote for President Biden, President Trump. You know what's going to happen. You know that. They're going to give you four more years of the same stuff.
If you want things to completely change, you're going to support me because I'm going to change everything.
This is a moral battle for the soul of our nation to restore our moral authority around the world by projecting economic power abroad rather than spending $8 trillion on regime change wars that have left every nation we've touched worse off than we found it and restoring our moral authority here at home.
The first day in office -- you heard what they're going to do. You don't even understand it.
Here's what I'm going to do. Day one in office I'm going to issue an executive order saying any federal official who tells a lie to the American public will lose his job.
I'm going to stop the surveillance state.
I'm going to stop the propagandizing by our agencies of of the American public.
I'm going to unravel the war machine.
I'm going to unravel the corrupt merger of state and corporate power.
I know how to do it. I've been litigating against these agencies for years, and I'm uniquely suited to do this.
But I can tell you, I'm going to do these things when I get in there. I'm going to make sure that our Constitution is protected, that AI is deployed to make government more transparent rather than by government to enslave the rest of us.
I'm going to bring AI home and blockchain home because we need these new industries to grow our way out of the debt crisis.
This is something that these two aren't even talking about.
If you want everything to change, you'll support me.
If you want to vote out of fear, you need to support one of those.
Guys, if you want to vote out of hope, out of inspiration, out of pride in your country, out of restoring the moral backbone of our people and our nation, you should vote for me." - Robert F Kennedy Jr #election #kennedy #2024

When asked today for "Bitcoin wallet recommendations" this is what I responded:
If you want to play around with lightning bitcoin first and get familiar with sending and receiving sats then try a quick custodial option like:
- coinos (web)
- zebedee (mobile)
- wallet of satoshi (mobile).
Once you're ready to up your security then consider trying a convenient self-custodial lightning wallet where the channel management is taken care of for you, e.g.
- Breez (mobile)
- Phoenix (mobile)
- Bitkit (mobile)
When you've saved up enough sats to go onchain then consider getting a hardware signing device (or 3), such as a Jade, seedsigner, coldcard, ledger, trezor and pairing it with an onchain wallet like:
- Sparrow (desktop)
- Green (mobile, desktop)
- Specter (desktop)
To use it privately you'll want to run your own Bitcoin node, which you can do on your windows/macos/linux computer but to keep it in sync you might want to get a dedicated device that you can leave running 24/7. There are specially designed personal server operating systems that make it easy like:
- Umbrel OS
- Start OS
Once you're running your own node you can start experimenting with managing your own lightning channels and using mobile lightning wallet options that you can pair with your node like Zeus.
I've missed out a lot of wallets because I just wrote this quickly off the top of my head, so please do your own research. Personally if I was just starting out today I would play around quickly with coinos on web, then when you have a few sats move them to Breez on mobile, and once you've got a big enough stack to take onchain I would start with a simple set up of a Blockstream Jade + Green wallet (on mobile and desktop). There are plenty of 10% discount codes out there for the Jade, but it still sets you back a little bit so it only makes sense once you've got a bit of savings going. The last code I saw floating around was "ORANGEMART"
