Other than http://nostrtool.com , is there an easy-to-use program that I can download and use offline (or has other features that keep it safe and secure) that will turn my nsec into a 12-word seed phrase? I tried to download and install Nostr Tool, but couldn't get it to work. So I decided to #AskNostr.

For those unaware, the prophecy tells of a future (for Ezra, the brother of Daniel from the Old Testament) kingdom that was represented by an eagle with 3 sleeping heads. The majority of it gives clues that tie the prophecy to the United States, starting in 1929 with President Hoover (since that's likely when the "Deep State" really got going).
The feathers on the eagle's wings represent "kings", and each feather stands up for a time when they're in power, before lying back down at the end of their term. We can link this to the presidents since Hoover because one of them stands for twice as long as the longest duration of the others (FDR), and others lie back down before their time was supposed to be up (Kennedy, Nixon, Trump, and soon Biden). Lining up all the feathers with presidents, there's a perfect match.
The Kennedy feather goes down before its time because he was assassinated by conspirators. The Nixon feather goes down before its time because he resigned under pressure from the same conspirators. Trump legitimately won the 2020 election due to fraud that was perpetrated by the same conspiracy. The prophecy states that the feather following Trump, Biden, stood for less time than the Trump feather, so this same secret organization will likely cause something to happen to get rid of Biden before his full term is complete.
After that, things get really interesting. Another feather starts to rise, as the next would-be president starts to get ready to take office, but then that same secret organization takes them out, too, before they can officially take office. Then someone else tries to rise to power, but the same thing happens again. That's when the 3 heads begin to wake up.
The 3 heads are not the 3 branches of government, but 3 additional, very very bad dictators that will each take over the United States, rule for a time, then get taken out by the next head. When the 3rd one falls, the eagle kingdom will be destroyed and replaced by a lion kingdom, which represents the Kingdom of God on Earth. It will be a kingdom of freedom and prosperity, repairing all the damage from the previous wicked rulers. As Bitcoiners, regardless of your religious affiliation (or lack thereof), we're building the foundation of that lion kingdom.
Better buckle up.

2024-05-31 08:03:58

If you don't know about Ezra's prophecy of the nation that would be represented by an eagle, you should probably look into it, especially after today's events.
It might all be invalidated on 20 January 2025, but if Biden is no longer our president any time before that date, then the prophecy will be verified (again), and we will be very close to the complete collapse of the United States, and the rise of the "lion" kingdom.
It might be worth looking into.

Yep.
The halving happens a little less than every 4 years. If Satoshi had started Bitcoin a little more than a month later, like in mid-February 2009, then with all else being equal, the first halving would've happened in early 2013. And gradually, the halving dates will continue to drift earlier and earlier in the year, until eventually one of the halvings will no longer happen in a US presidential election year.
But by then, Bitcoin will have leveraged that impeccable timing towards its own hyperbitcoinization, and won't need that kind of timing anymore.
Indeed, there are no coincidences.

💯% correct. Sorry, I didn’t mean to suggest that we don’t need to gather together in Christ, or avoid churches altogether. Jesus said that the two greatest commandments are to love God and love our neighbors. How can we love our neighbors if we aren’t fellowshipping with them and ministering to their needs? Plus: “where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.”
The truth is that all centralized organizations eventually become corrupt, no matter how pure or noble their intentions were at the onset. But a decentralized network of Followers of the Way — guiding and strengthening each other,and each with an abiding personal relationship with Jesus that’s rooted deeply in their souls — cannot be corrupted.
Gathering in churches is helpful for us in our efforts to live and bless each other, but only Jesus Christ is necessary for salvation.
Thanks for your comment! 💜

The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the first, last, and ultimate decentralized protocol.
"𝘣𝘜𝘵 𝘑𝘦𝘚𝘶𝘚 𝘪𝘚 𝘵𝘏𝘦 𝘊𝘦𝘕𝘵𝘌𝘳! 𝘚𝘰 𝘐𝘵'𝘚 𝘯𝘖𝘵 𝘋𝘦𝘊𝘦𝘕𝘵𝘙𝘢𝘓𝘪𝘡𝘦𝘋!"
The point of decentralization is to not have a single point of failure. The Pharisees also thought Jesus was the center of what they saw as His cult, known back then as simply "The Way," and believed that if they had Him killed, that would be the end of it.
Quite the contrary, it only solidified the Gospel. Not because they "created a martyr"; that only solidified Jesus' teachings in the minds of His disciples (which was important, but not part of the Gospel itself). But it was because Jesus had to be killed to rise again and break the bands of sin and death for all of us. His resurrection was the finishing touch to His Father's Gospel protocol.
https://i.nostr.build/eZWkm.jpg
What is this protocol exactly? To some members of a couple lost tribes of the House of Israel, (some of His "other sheep" - see John 10:16), Jesus taught:
"𝘐 𝘤𝘢𝘮𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘰𝘧 𝘮𝘺 𝘍𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳, 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘮𝘺 𝘍𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘮𝘦. 𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘮𝘺 𝘍𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘮𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐 𝘮𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘣𝘦 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘶𝘱 𝘶𝘱𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘳𝘰𝘴𝘴.

That is the protocol. Jesus has a central role in it, the way cryptography does in Bitcoin, but that doesn't make it centralized. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗼𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗹 𝗼𝗳 𝗝𝗲𝘀𝘂𝘀 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗱𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗶𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗽𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗛𝗶𝗺 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂. You can think of it like each individual who turns their life over to Christ becoming a "node", with a full copy of the protocol contained within them.
Jesus warned those lost tribes, though, that some people would try to pass off more or less than this protocol as His doctrine:
"𝘞𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘰 𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘥𝘦𝘤𝘭𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘰𝘳 𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘩 𝘪𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘮𝘺 𝘥𝘰𝘤𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘦, 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘮𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩 𝘰𝘧 𝘦𝘷𝘪𝘭, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘣𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘵 𝘶𝘱𝘰𝘯 𝘮𝘺 𝘳𝘰𝘤𝘬; 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘥𝘦𝘵𝘩 𝘶𝘱𝘰𝘯 𝘢 𝘴𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘺 𝘧𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘨𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘦𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘴𝘶𝘤𝘩 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘥𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘴 𝘣𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘶𝘱𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮."
There are many who claim that repentance or baptism aren't necessary, because God's grace is freely available to all. Many others say that in addition to all that Jesus taught, things like baptism must be done through men who have been given authority by other men, and then that our salvation must be confirmed by our works. Both groups have an element of truth, but neither one is totally true: The first declares less than what Jesus taught, the second declares more, therefore they are both built on a sandy foundation, and not on the rock of Jesus and His Gospel.
This isn't to say, though, that the above quote is all the scripture we need! All other true scriptures delve deep into Jesus' Gospel, to explore and expound on it, but they never remove or add anything to it. 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰 𝘦𝘯𝘥 to all the good that can be said about Jesus and His Gospel. As John said:
"𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘢𝘭𝘴𝘰 𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘺 𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘩 𝘑𝘦𝘴𝘶𝘴 𝘥𝘪𝘥, 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘩, 𝘪𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘣𝘦 𝘸𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘯 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘰𝘯𝘦, 𝘐 𝘴𝘶𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥 𝘪𝘵𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘣𝘦 𝘸𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘯."
https://i.nostr.build/lLnxv.jpg
So, if you're a Bitcoiner who also believes in Jesus, and don't go through any bank to access your money or a custodial bitcoin service to interact with the protocol, why would you go through a church or fallible (even if well-intentioned) human being to access God? Like Bitcoin, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗼𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗹 𝗼𝗳 𝗝𝗲𝘀𝘂𝘀 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮 𝘀𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗶𝗴𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗱𝘂𝗮𝗹, but the Gospel of Jesus Christ is meant to make you a sovereign heir over 𝘢𝘭𝘭 God's works (Romans 8:16-17). You don't need to go through anyone else to achieve that level of literally infinite sovereignty. You only need to follow Yeshua Hamashiach Himself, directly, with no intermediaries or trusted third parties. Just you and Him.
In a very real sense, this is The Way.

Having grown up in a Christian household with conservative values, I was raised to never curse or use other kinds of crude language. And now, even though I know there's nothing wrong with saying words like "shit" (it's the most accurate word that could be used when translating one word in Philippians 3:8), I still find myself preferring to write "💩coins," rather than "shitcoins." Old habits die hard, I guess...
Anyway, then I discovered Bitcoin, and you vulgar, crass, lovable bunch of misfits that use it. Those of my ultraconservative Christian upbringing might react to some of you the way the Pharisees and Roman soldier react to the dinner guests in the video clip below, but they're not my tribe. They're not my people. My tribe loves truth more than propriety. My tribe says what they mean and doesn't dance around it for fear of offending someone. My tribe used to be "the weak things of the world," but they are coming forth and breaking down "the mighty and strong ones."
https://v.nostr.build/xE8aK.mp4
I've learned that when it comes to goodness, there are weightier matters than watching one's language and wearing a suit and tie. So if you're into Bitcoin for the revolution, to fix the world's problems for your children, your grandchildren, and your great-grandchilren, then I don't care who you were before you found it. Just like Christ, and everything else that's inspired by Him, Bitcoin will make you triumph over all the self-important cucks out there.
I'm honored and overjoyed to be standing with you in this fight for freedom, truth, and everything good in this world. 🥂

No, you consolidate UTXOs by sending them to yourself. Whenever an on-chain bitcoin transaction confirms, it's as if your bitcoin is physical gold coins, and they're melted down and rechecked to be 100% certain that they're real. So consolidating your UTXOs is like having a bunch of gold dust and small coins that need to be melted down in an on-chain transaction, and then they're turned into a single large gold bar. So to do that, it would need to be an on-chain transaction, but the recipient would be yourself.
My original post was also meant as kind of a joke, since 100 sats/vbyte is still pretty expensive. You could say it was a bit of "gallows humor," or sarcasm about the current spam attack that Bitcoin is going through right now.

The #Bitcoin #halving is currently set to happen around 9PM our time.

"Press forward, Saints,
with steadfast faith in Christ,
With hope’s bright flame
alight in heart and mind,
With love of God
and love of all mankind.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Press forward, feasting
on the word of Christ.
Receive his name,
rejoicing in his might.
Come unto God;
find everlasting light.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Press on, enduring
in the ways of Christ.
His love proclaim
thru days of mortal strife.
Thus saith our God:
'Ye have eternal life!'
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!"

The ability to remove an account in my list of accounts in the app, so it's not taking up space anymore.
I demonstrated to a friend how to use Amethyst by creating an account, thinking I could delete it afterward, only to find that I can't.
Or, at least, I can't figure out how. 😆

The same was true for the religious leaders of Jesus' day, compared to the "filthy" Roman Gentiles, harlets, tax collectors, etc. Jesus saw right through all the Pharisees' show of piety, and directly called them out for their hypocrisy. IMO, if a first century version of Julian Assange had been arrested by Rome and condemned by the Pharisees, all for the crime of telling the truth, just like John the Baptist, I believe Jesus would have nothing but praise for that man, as He did for John.
History is rhyming, and many (but not all) churches and "Christians" are following the same path as the Pharisees. But that doesn't negate the reality of the physical Yeshua who will return and show everyone the markings of the nails in His hands and feet, just as He did ~2000 years ago. While Bitcoin is not the Messiah, it does reflect, or "typify", Him in many ways. In a non-Biblical scripture, a man in ~550 BC, named Nephi, who had been shown all about Christ long before He first came, once said:
"Behold, my soul delighteth in proving unto my people the truth of the coming of Christ; for, for this end hath the law of Moses been given; and 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝗚𝗼𝗱 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱, 𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝗻, 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝘆𝗽𝗶𝗳𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗳 𝗵𝗶𝗺."
In other words, if something is from God, it will typify of Christ, and Bitcoin certainly does! Like John the Baptist, Bitcoin is preparing the way for our Savior's return. It is also the foundation of the society that will exist when Jesus reigns personally on the Earth as King of kings and Lord of lords (but also as the antithesis of the fiat kind of king we've become accustomed to). Bitcoin is incentivizing low time preference, which opens the way for greater humility, faith, hope, and love in our hearts. Jesus will only return when there are enough people who are prepared to receive Him, and Bitcoin is a tool that He caused to be created to assist us in our preparations.

"But before ye seek for riches, seek ye for the kingdom of God. And after ye have obtained a hope in Christ ye shall obtain riches, if ye seek them; and ye will seek them for the intent to do good—to clothe the naked, and to feed the hungry, and to liberate the captive, and administer relief to the sick and the afflicted."

Thanks, but my point was that if you're a lion, it's only because you wanted to become one badly enough that when sacrifices were required of you in order to rise up as a lion, you didn't back down.
@npub1rtl…jtfs called you to rise up and be the lion you always wanted to be, anyway. When we try to train those who, deep down, prefer to be sheep, and convince them to live like lions, it always ends like the story HODL shared, if not worse.
We should tell others about Bitcoin and other good things, but I'm realizing we should never try to convince them when they don't want to be convinced. We'll either fail spectacularly, or succeed in setting them up to fail spectacularly.

2024-03-24 06:07:48

We can't wake the sleeping sheep. We can only search for our fellow lions.
People will become the one (sheep or lion) that they truly want to be. Something I need to learn is that there's nothing I can do to train a sheep to become a lion. Either they'll want it badly enough to be a lion without my help, or they'll always be comfortable with simply being a sheep.
That has been and will likely continue to be a very difficult lesson for me to learn. 😔

#Bitcoin has parallels to the books of the Torah:
𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀𝗶𝘀: Bitcoin's first block, found on 3 January 2009, is called the "Genesis Block".
𝗘𝘅𝗼𝗱𝘂𝘀: Bitcoin is our exit strategy from the slavery of modern Egypt.
𝗟𝗲𝘃𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘂𝘀: Bitcoin runs on a protocol that must be followed, without exception.
𝗡𝘂𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘀: A census of all sats is taken every ~10 minutes, to make sure that the protocol is being followed.
𝗗𝗲𝘂𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗺𝘆: Bitcoin has a "Second Law" (hodl; don't trust, verify; there is no second best; etc) that is enforced by its social layer.

How Nephi said "HFSP" in ~545 BC:
"And you that will not partake of the goodness of God, and respect the words of the Jews, and also my words, and the words which shall proceed forth out of the mouth of the Lamb of God, behold, I bid you an everlasting farewell, for these words shall condemn you at the last day."

Unpopular opinion: the Bible is a map, not the territory.
https://i.nostr.build/6koq.jpg
The Bible is an old, weathered, heavily censored, and significantly altered map with large missing pieces. It'll help you find God, but with a lot of confusion, detours, and unanswered questions along the way.
What's needed is a more complete map that was preserved and protected from mistranslations, censorship, and alterations, in order to validate the truths in the Bible, correct errors that have snuck in over time, and fill in some missing pieces. Yes, I'm saying we need the Book of Mormon.
https://i.nostr.build/A8Vj.jpg
But what's needed even more than that is people who only use scriptures as the tools they were always meant to be; as a means to an end, and not the end itself.
I told you this was an unpopular opinion.

It looks like it. Good thing Satoshi isn't the sole runner of Bitcoin's protocol. I run Bitcoin, because I run a node. If you run one too, then you also run Bitcoin. And if Satoshi is out there somewhere, and running a node, then he runs it, too. But like all the rest of us, he must follow the consensus rules, or else fork off of the network.
Satoshi also believed that Bitcoin would scale with a couple huge server-farm nodes running the protocol, mining, and keeping a copy of the whole timechain, while everyone else would just keep a copy of the most recent blocks. He didn't see thatakind if centralization as a problem, so he was wrong about that, too.
Bitcoin isn't a Satoshi cult. Satoshi can be wrong, we can point it out, and it's not sacrilege. Satoshi was smart, and we owe him our gratitude for putting the pieces together that were created by Adam Back, Nick Szabo, and others, but he is not God.

My 13-year-old son broke his arm recently when he fell backwards while roller skating. Amazingly, his hand didn't change color, he can still move it, and the pain is only a 1 or 2 out of 10 when at rest, and a 3 or 4 when he tries to move it.

I wrestled some in my mind whether to spend some bitcoin or use my credit card; I want to stack sats, but I also want to encourage Bitcoin adoption. In the end, my desire for a circular Bitcoin economy won out, and I paid with sats.

We've had a lot of time to stack sats, and we shouldn't stop (I'll be replacing those sats as soon as I have enough fiat 😉). But if we want to see a world on the Bitcoin standard, we need to lead by example.

Her: "No, they're forcing people to get vaccinated."
Me: "Are they protecting our liberty?"
Her: "No, they're *forcing* people to do things like get vaccinated, but also to stay inside, and stuff like that."
Me: "Are they protecting our property?"
Her: "No, they take people's stuff all the time! Especially with taxes!"
Me: "So what's our government good for?"

Me: [visible happiness]

Here's a story that illustrates this:
My sister is very woke. A couple years ago, she and I were talking, and she said, "I don't really like cryptocurrencies. I mean, some of them look interesting, and I'm really intrigued by the idea of NFTs, but you know which one I absolutely 𝘩𝘢𝘵𝘦?"
Me: "What?" (hoping she was going say "dogecoin" or something)
Her: "Bitcoin. It's destroying the planet, it's taking electricity from people who need it, causing rolling blackouts in California. And people are getting 𝘱𝘢𝘪𝘥 to ruin everyone else's lives that way!"
Me: "I can understand why you think that, but it's not true. It's actually the opposite of the truth. Bitcoin is actually helping the environment, and bringing greater access to electricity for millions around the world."
Her: (looking very incredulous) "Really? How?"
Me: "Well, energy costs money, and miners want to cut costs wherever they can, so they can get the most bitcoin for their energy. This incentivizes them to--"
Her: "Never mind. You clearly seem to know all about it, so forget I asked." She then rapidly changed the subject.
Every time she has visited my house since then, she has seen me wearing a Bitcoin shirt (I have lots of them), my daughter's Little Hodler plushy, and the Bitcoin sticker on the back of my laptop, and she has deliberately talked about something else every time. So she avoids us when she can.
See? It works.
