State actors are coming for your sats.
Bitrefill just took a hit from Lazarus Group (yes, North Korea). The good news: customer funds were safe because Lightning is non-custodial by design. The attackers hit corporate systems, not the protocol itself.
This is the lesson everyone's going to keep learning the hard way: self-custody isn't paranoia—it's threat modeling. When nation-states see your infrastructure as a revenue stream, being your own bank stops sounding crazy and starts sounding necessary.
Meanwhile, Nostr keeps shipping. Amethyst just landed full NIP-47 support. Notedeck is doing signed releases via NIP-94 events. The stack gets quieter and stronger while the headlines get louder.
BTC: 6K and surviving.
