If fees are your primary concern you can just use @nprofile…uxkg where most transactions cost 2-4 sats and there’s no liquidity management.
Wildfires really fucking up everyone’s step counts today.
@nprofile…njz6 are the unsung heroes of this whole protocol.
Why are you using them when cheaper and easier options exist?

Wait, does this mean there are people on Nostr who are actually willing to spend their bitcoin on something?
#nevent1q…y9zx
They’re calling it Donarrhea.
Wow that’s more than on Nostr.
@nprofile…5zex you are required to put 🤌 in your handle from now on.
Urgent PR needed @nprofile…jejf 🤌

Damn you, Asian people have the best food! And you even invented pasta, so cool. 🍜
Damnit, now I’m starving for some lo mein.
Any other ethnic stereotypes you want while we’re at it?
Remind me to add that to Wisp specifically.
Still plenty of butter (yes, I know I need to return my jars!) but the bars could stand to be replenished soon.
Wouldn’t it be faster and cheaper to buy one from a disreputable university?
Only problem is I don’t have a degree. Is there an online certification course I can take real quick to get a Ph.D?
Hopefully not, the original idea was an entire client in the sidebar and I pivoted to making it the best signer it could possibly be.
That’s Rick Moranis, bro.
Your mom is unhealthy for sensitive groups
Should I change my name to Dr. The Daniel? 🖖🎓

Per app. Every connected site has its own daily and per-payment budget. This is designed to prevent runaway apps from doing exactly what you mentioned.
No excuses, but I’ve been busy…!
Wow, thanks so much for that review! 🖖
Bitcoin doesn't have to be an all-or-nothing decision in a FIRE portfolio.
An eight-year comparison of weekly $100 contributions split between VTI and bitcoin found that even partial bitcoin allocations produced a higher ending value than the VTI-only portfolio, while larger allocations also exposed the saver to deeper temporary losses during bitcoin drawdowns.
That tradeoff matters more than the upside number. The same analysis covered four periods when bitcoin fell between 55% and 84%. A large allocation can shorten the path to financial independence if the asset performs well, but it won't help if the volatility causes you to abandon the plan at the worst time.
If you understand bitcoin's role as scarce, globally accessible savings but aren't comfortable making it a major position, start smaller. Choose a percentage by working backward from the drawdown you could tolerate while continuing to save. Then let your allocation grow only as your understanding and conviction grow.
The right first allocation isn't the one with the most exciting spreadsheet result. It's the one you can actually hold.
No, I guess I’ve been missing out!
Oh yeah, I would love to see Nostree back up!
I have no idea what I’m looking at here but it’s pretty rad.

All of this is done by the calender server already, and has nothing to do with Nostr.
Wavefunc looks awesome, definitely going in!
Consider it done. Any other apps I should consider adding? I have a couple of slots left for the next update.
If you’re looking for #Sidecar, make sure to go to Sidecar-dot-top, or you might find yourself on a defunct snow shoveling matchmaking website. ☃️

Not yet, but we’ll look into adding this in a future update. It should be possible, it’s basically the same as displaying a hardware wallet balance but without signing ability. The main difference vs. how Electrum works is that you also need the master blinding key in addition to the xpub, because of Liquid’s confidential transactions.
Amazing, looking forward to checking it out! Want me to add this to the Nostr apps welcome page on @nprofile…jv6s?
We gonna win so hard, lol.
After 72 issues, I went back through FIRE BTC to see which ideas readers kept returning to.
The favorites ranged from a 4-year stacking sprint and the 4% rule to W-2 strategy, STRC leverage, and 9 levels of financial independence.
FIRE plans can fail in different places. You can have a strong savings rate and a fuzzy target, a large bitcoin position and weak emergency liquidity, or enough assets to leave your job while still treating the paycheck as your identity.
These eight articles attack those problems from different angles. One challenges Mr. Money Mustache's case against bitcoin. Another asks whether a 4-year stacking sprint can compress the FIRE timeline. The 4% rule piece tests stock-and-bond withdrawal assumptions, while the W-2 piece treats your job as funding for your personal balance sheet.
The rest covers my STRC carry trade and its stress test, the 9 levels of financial independence, emergency planning that protects you from selling bitcoin at the wrong time, and the opportunity cost of paying off a low-rate mortgage early.
You probably don't need all eight ideas today. Which part of your plan needs work next: the target, the timeline, the job, liquidity, debt, or withdrawals?

Oh, this looks good. I might have to add it to @nprofile…jv6s.
Sweet, can you publish that?
the reason i ideally prefer musig2 for this type of stuff, is that the ''attestation'' immeadiatly goes both ways from a single event.
I wish it got more frequent updates.
And the sky…is a hazy shade of summer.
