Cool new page we shipped today at
Businesses can see exactly how their logos would look inside a wallet.
People love your brand; showcase it on the entire customer journey from scan all the way to payment history.
This feature, with a fundamental basis rooted in security, will become the standard for digital asset payments, OTC transactions, institutional transfers, and any sort of movement where counterparty risk is present. https://blossom.primal.net/0c69aaa35fd4df77fe55ca8298c055884bb7d6c5a510d899d1489d431e9728c5.png https://blossom.primal.net/f9309cb38701ee06d654bcd935a6789d1834447c2aad88dabd0362054bc1fbf1.png

Lot's of good thoughts in this piece. Point is, the ability of self-custody is THE reason for Bitcoin yet it needs upgrades to help prevent attacks like this from ever happening again while also helping onboarding the next million people to the truth of being sovereign with their Bitcoin

Bitcoin payments are now better than fiat payments.
If you sell your product for Bitcoin, your customers can see exactly who they’re paying before they ever hit send, because of

This means your business name and logo show up automatically in their wallet right before they pay.
Payment confidence and security is the whole point. This is a new standard for sending Bitcoin.

“We also layered in
for enhanced security (yes, we do onchain in the wallet ans well) Extra verification. Extra protection. If we are going to encourage people to hold their own keys, we better take security seriously.”
It just makes sense.

Potentially the most impactful event I have been a part of in the Bitcoin world.
I have long held the belief that Bitcoin benefits those in parts of the world without easy and dominant access to a “stable” fiat currency like the dollar or Euro far more than people in the Western world can comprehend.
Bitcoin is not just a store of value or another investment to diversify your portfolio. Bitcoin is money, and for many, it is a path to ensuring they receive the remittance payment they need.
ChapSmart is making a real difference for people in East Africa and Branta is making sure each remittance payment is sent exactly to the right place.

Crusader.


Mercy never began to be, but from eternity was; so it will never cease to be.
Just had this issue occur (on browser) and lost everyone I was following. Any ideas on how to correct this and/or avoid this?

Seeing differences in opinion with friends texting me about #btc price than in history
They realize it’s a buying opportunity, less fear.
This is what happens when you learn more about it, you realize a lower BTC price is a good entry point—not a point to panic.
The ability to plan for and account for the future life you want to live is the single most important factor in making it a reality.
Life is best played in the infinite games.

Am proud of the imagery and branding used for the recent
long-form.
Little touches like these matter and were intentional decisions we iterated upon.
4 images, all pulling emotion out of you in different ways.
Themes of the world: architecture to tradfi, unrelated yet entirely related when it comes to the permanence and solutions bitcoin provides.
Fix the money, fix the world. https://blossom.primal.net/56de740fcedf2898a68bd0f294b28c49a7ae02c70f8f886351aab527d00822cf.webp https://blossom.primal.net/6004168e03ea816cb9aa6fd48998843856f0e25221b663f2c7d5b7fa3a200f6c.webp https://blossom.primal.net/b07230a823356c78a137cb6f48fe94b3a6a5f5c789aa1e0b5b54884bec7bf645.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/082b5048df631374948ddd57cf031f1de82c09f9ad9c18286a79571839a216d2.webp

People saying #bitcoin is too expensive don't understand how much capital moved gold recently.
Bitcoin is young and the logical case is it will pass gold in market cap.
Don't get it twisted and don't overcomplicate it.
Zoom out, stack Sats.

Birthday miles. Couldn’t miss it

Human minds react differently when spending on credit or spending with bitcoin/$ bills.
Credit is a deferral of payment to the future, whereas #Bitcoin and cash settle immediately, meaning every spend has an immediate outcome.
The immediate is emotional, the deferred is empty.
Cash is known for its "pain of paying" because of it leaving your hands. While bitcoin has these same properties, I find joy in participating in the circular economy of BTC.
And I am not alone.
People like to spend their Sats, and we would argue that the infancy of the Bitcoin circular economy actually adds to the experience of transacting with your Bitcoin because it feels new and exciting.
There's a reason why Steak 'n Shake has reported 15% increases in sales over the past quarter... People like to shop at places where #BTC is accepted.
Every btc transaction for a good or service helps to build the circular economy of Bitcoin, and creating the circular economy of Bitcoin helps fulfill the Bitcoin thesis.
Special shoutout to all of the merchants on nostr selling their goods and services:

and so many more.

The longest and most abstract piece I have written in a while.
For too long, society has trended toward the "present" and, in doing so, has neglected engineered permanence in favor of engineered decay.
Bitcoin is the wedge that will bring permanence back to our world.
