I’ve loved mine. It’s a great learning exercise and a meaningful piece of decor for me.
Plus, I’m doing my part to decentralize mining— some are understandably concerned that mining is too centralized into a handful of pools…

“Not your node, not your rules.”Everyone should run a node. Can’t understate the importance of this.
Also, my family has loved @alby hub. I use it as a self custodial savings account for the kids and zap them for chores and such. It’s been great.

Give your local XRPer a hug.
There but for the grace of God go I.
It’s not their fault Ripple is a bad actor. Ripple leadership should be ignored and collectively ridiculed, if not punished.
Bring the “XRP Army” the gospel of Bitcoin. 🙏🏻

Tariff FUD? Markets green by end of day?

That’s lots of helpful info and debate out there about who is actually going to pay this tax, but the truth is somewhere in the middle of USA citizens picking up the tab versus the countries attempting to export the tariffed goods. USA has other options including other countries without tarriffs or switching to producing the goods ourselves from our vast natural resources— while these tarriffed countries goods are suddenly going to be difficult to sell in the biggest market in the world: the USA.
There’s so much more to say, but just pointing out it’s not as simple as a tax on America and can serve as a lever to other ends— for instance serving our administration’s immigration goals.

Jordan Peterson has touched on this. Basically: “Why not offer these courses for free? Because more people will view them and value them if there’s a price.”
Price in dollars is the best signal of the value of a thing in a market economy— it’s natural that something worth $0 is worth less.

Cardano’s pivot to becoming a level 2 of #Bitcoin is a hilarious and entirely predictable outcome of the hardest money winning. Crypto’s only hope is to capitulate to #Bitcoin dominance.
#Eth is next. #USD isn’t far behind.

Yes, firmer foundation, real legs to stand on. The wild volatility is fun, but gradual price action represents deeper and lasting commitment.

I see the price action of #Bitcoin today and my mind returns to a prophetic something @npub1h8n…rpev said on a particularly somber guys take: basically, when #Bitcoin finally takes off again it’s not going to be giant green candles but a slow, boring, grinding march to all time highs. I think about that episode often…

I’d like to think that we, the digital dreamers, have an opportunity to do it better. If a perfect money is possible to solve, this can be solved too.

I’d hate for NOSTR as a protocol or Damus, etc., as a service to be targeted by law enforcement or legislation limiting access. Or, perhaps worse, negative public sentiment due to bad press coverage. Consider Silkroad, and the pariah it’s been turned into…
It’s best we police ourselves as a community and give no appearance of quarter to such bad actors.
It’s certainly not easy, but one solution would be for media servers to filter CSAM by default, and applications can detect if the default has been changed or not when connecting to node / servers. It’s not perfect but it’s a start… 🤷🏻‍♂️

Regarding #Bitcoin, I’ve been thinking about Parker Lewis’s exchange theory of value and how difficult it is to make a solid case for day to day use of #BTC as a medium of exchange in the Southeastern U.S. of A.
Partially, there’s very few local companies that accept it for payment. But worse, in the USA 🇺🇸, the dollar and all the infrastructure built up around it just *work so damn well*. For large and small amounts, Venmo and PayPal scratch my itch as well as anything, and there are excellent services like #Fold and multiple credit cards that offer rewards that sweeten the use of fiat currency.
But as a counterpoint, I think my difficulty promoting or justifying #Bitcoin as day to day medium of exchange (even to myself!) comes down to the *financial privilege* of living in a peaceful country where the world reserve currency is used daily as a medium of exchange.
Also, as @npub1w69…zltw points out, if we want the rails of exchange and we want them better, we need to use the rails. And I’m working hard at that.
If anyone has any suggestions or insight, I’m all ears. Anyone feel the same way?
