It’s very confusing and hard to share efficiently or effectively… but it’s still awesome.

I’d opt for a single claim link which can be redeemed multiple times.

Lol at the algo

Get the F out of my face with those Samoas you young, naive child.

Also, yes, I would like 4 boxes of those Tagalongs, thank you.

Special thank you to

and the very lean operational team that tirelessly work to keep the grants flowing.

Also a huge thank you to all the FOSS contributors out there working on critical tools for our future as well to all of the people, organizations, and donors who help support them.

Happy to be building on top of Bitcoin—> a reliable financial network that doesn’t just arbitrarily close for the day because someone famous died, or was born, or because it’s after 4pm, or because it’s Saturday, or because there’s “too much” price action.

Incredible coordination

Mostly, I wish everyone in the world just objectively questioned and reacted to what’s actually going on around them.

I like to think people understand and know what’s right or wrong, but like frogs boiling in water, we somehow don’t feel the heat and wrongness that’s slowly grabbing foothold and stature in our world today.

The era we are living in is an epic. Were insanely lucky.

These 50 years:

• post 1990 - when the internet became freely available to the masses, and then…

• post 2008 - when the idea of open-sourced, freely accessible, uncensorable, fair money via bitcoin spilled out of Pandora’s box

For human flourshing, these years are the important ones to fight for (I think).

Go back 100, 300, 1000 years in the past… go forward100, 300, 2500 years in the future. Literally nothing is more important.

This era will be the start of many history books, or at least the start of a very important chapter (if they place importance on our evolutionarily history).

Like most inventions, I probably can’t grasp the overall impact and importance of Bitcoin for future generations.

But I know it moves us toward purposes of significance rather than survival.

It moves us towards art instead of war.

It moves us toward self sovereignty instead of authoritarianism.

I’m proud of the timeline I get to live in today.

I will be present. I will help people. I will love. I will try my best.

as long I can.

Keep on rocking in the (increasingly un-)free world.

Fight the good fight for another year if you can muster it. It matters.

The most fun you’ll have this holiday season is tipping random people more than normal.

It’s always going to someone who knows a good day’s work.

If you have a “work spot” or a go-to local space… maybe drop a $100 next time you’re in if you can make it work and make someone’s day.

Otherwise, I’d like to verbally tip all my online homies with a thank you. The occasional meme, comment, or troll on here makes my day every day.

Love y’all nerds. 🫀🦡🌽

Love you everyone.

I found a purpose in life within this community, and for that, I am forever thankful to you.

Finally evolving to be smart enough to migrate to warmth for winter.

I’ve tested out 6 Ledger hardware wallets over the years.

2 nanoS 4 nanoX

1 nanoS screen is now completely broke and won’t render the GUI

1 nanoX just gave me a “battery no longer charges” error and then upon using it again just performed a factory reset (presumably wiping the seed) without asking.

33% failure rate is pretty fucking unacceptable with ledger. I’m not using these devices actively even.

Just remember to backup in metal folks…

I was trying to get some manufacturer resiliency by using Coldcard and Ledger for a multisig, but I’m done with ledger after multiple PII leaks and critical HWW malfunctions

Just a PSA I guess…

My favorite thing about the last 10 years has been the chance to be dirt poor with all my friends over the entire course of our relationships.

… it’s truly been a pleasure.

I love you all and plan to continue to stay poor and live out of a backpack for the foreseeable future… at least until morale improves.

20/ As more people gravitate towards Bitcoin, more goods and services will gravitate towards a bitcoin economy. The Bitcoin Standard is coming, it just won't happen overnight. It will happen one by one, individual by individual, company by company. Balance sheet by balance sheet.

21/ When all is said and done, bitcoin will be taken for granted just like electricity and the internet is today. What remains in the background is a beautiful orange circle of interlocking incentives. Settling transactions, block by block.

Everyone has a better solution in their head.

Few build it.

“I disapprove of what you say, but I’ll defend to the death your right to say it—unless, of course, it contradicts my carefully curated version of reality, disrupts my agenda, or makes me the slightest bit uncomfortable.”

Somehow, just not as catchy as the original.

GM… I will judge you more on your urinal selection algorithm than I do your overall personality.

These are the type of people we're funding at OpenSats.

Long live FOSS.

Thanks to the devs.

Today I learned:

This emoji: 🫂 … is not someone looking over someone’s shoulder working at their laptop.

Much love to the quiet ones who just get shit done and change the world on silent mode.

The masses might not credit you with much, but the real ones will remember everything you did and have done.

Who hurt you?
