So the world is sitting around waiting for a few out of touch old white men to finish lunch before announcing a decision that will impact hundreds of millions of people.

Is it possible to be a shitcoiner that holds bitcoin and has bitcoin values?

Gensler endgame...
Establish the most onerous, complicated and ambiguous crypto regulatory scheme as possible, then become a consultant charging sky-high fees to help navigate it, after he leaves office.

My sense is SVB won't be bailed out. The money printer will only be turned on if one or more of the bigger more traditional banks needs help. SVB may have been a competitor to the establishment, so now they have one less competitor.

What are the best Nostr accounts to follow related to running BTC, Lightening and/or Nostr supporting infrastructure?

Sad it's been so unusable for so long. It seems to have gotten almost usable over the past few years. Yet that may have been my own hope more than anything else.

I'm an altcoiner here with an open mind 🙂 So far it feels quite refreshing aligned with why I got into crypto in the first place.
As someone wanting to run crypto infrastructure and without access to capital PoS provided a viable crypto entry point.

Careful on your kidneys and liver. They have to process all that. I used to think more was better when it came to water intake until my acupucturist set me straight.

I logged into my Apple account over the weekend and it detected my location as Israel, even though neither my physical or VPN IP addresses were anywhere close to there.

2023-02-27 01:27:34

How can one run infrastructure to support Nostr, i.e. is there only a single type of relay, at least right now?

2023-02-27 01:26:21

Thanks. How to know which type of address can receive?

The Twitter algorithm rewards and amplifies toxicity, glad Nostr doesn't, at least yet and hopefully never.

More constructively, with the caveat it's a staking network, I was operating early enough to attract enough stake to cover opex costs, at least for now.
Like most/all staking networks, capital allocation is still an issue, because validators are made and broken by large whale delegations.
That said, Solana Labs and Foundation are doing more than most networks to try and decentralize. Yet decentralizing progressively is a very slow path.

Seems like a good way to be sure guests get routed through a VPN. Now to figure out how to disable their 4G/5G connections when in a specific geolocation and force them through the VPN...

I don't view Solana as a monetary protocol.
I agree that Solana needs to continue to decentralize the network's governance and development processes. They're taking steps in that direction, albeit slowly.

Other than spending my entire Saturday on two network restart attempts, pretty OK 🙂

Typical gaslighting by a centralized service provider, counting on waves of the usual silicon valley backslapping to drown out the few who may call them out on it.

Surprised to not find any chokepoint conversations happening on nostr.

What are the easiest non-obvious ways to unintentionally dox yourself on Nostr?

Looking forward to starting anon fresh on Nostr.

I'm an altercoiner newly lurking in the background here...
#[3]'s posts about Nostr got me here.
Interacting with Nostr has given me a chance to better understand Bitcoin and Lightning and hopefully interact w/the Bitcoin community in a healthy way.
I find the experience renewing, because I feel I'm "in crypto" for the "right reasons" and yes, the vast majority (to me) of altcoin networks, including Ethereum are being increasingly dominated by centralized forces, funders, entities, companies, etc.
