So what do you see as a solution for the average user then? If they can't manage a key then single-sig is out of the questions. Leave it on exchanges?

2024-10-06 13:30:05 UTC

- reply

I don't believe that the base layer will be used for mass adoption. I do think that the ones that er using the base layer will have significant amounts of purchasing power that it warrants a proper security model such as multisig.
Also, multisig configurations have come a long way and are now much easier to set-up, especially with collaborative custody models.
I would rather have less people using Bitcoin and properly securing it then a lot staying with exchanges or getting lost due to security mismanagement.
Let's see what the developers can bring us in the coming years/decades to improve custody solutions :).

Almost impossible without involving a 3rd party, unless the family are Bitcoiners as well.
That’s why I either set clients up with collaborative multisig or with @npub1cvq…yjt3 HoneyBadger

2024-10-05 14:08:02 UTC

- reply

The problem, in my opinion, is that most people stop at or before ‘So you use a passphrase’ which leaves them vulnerable to the most likely SPOF scenarios.
That’s why we do it the other way around, start with collaborative multisig. If they want to learn more and be fully self sovereign later then go for it! But at least your bitcoin is more likely to be secure in the phase prefacing that then when you start all the way at the top of your list.

2024-10-05 14:04:38 UTC

Why? I think the problem is exactly that people stop just before that!

Hi! I'm Wenze, and I've been lurking on and off on NOSTR since February '23, so I figured it’s time for an introduction #Introductions.
I came here from the Bitcoin world. Just like with Bitcoin, I initially came for NGU but stayed for the revolution. Similarly, I was a Bitcoin Twitter user, but now I'm here for freedom to go up!
A little about me:
My wife and I have a 1.5-year-old, and in my spare time, I enjoy hiking, skiing, music and reading fantasy books. Currently, my favorite authors are Brandon Sanderson and John Gwynne. I’m very passionate about Bitcoin and spend a lot of time in the space. I work as an adviser at https://www.thebitcoinadviser.com/ and run my own consulting company on self-custody, https://satsvault.eu/. As a Bitcoiner with a technical background (physics), I’m such a fan of the whitepaper that I’ve launched https://bitcoinwhitepaper.eu/, the only place in Europe where you can purchase a steel version of the Bitcoin whitepaper!
I’m here to connect with like-minded individuals, but I’m also interested in connecting with people who have different passions, such as the carnivore diet, photography, nature, music, and more. Feel free to reach out!

Yeah I know people like that. Mixed succes with highlighting the following points.
The main reasons for avoiding ETFs or leaving your bitcoin with an exchange provider are:
- You have no control over your bitcoin; they decide what you are allowed to do with it.
- If something goes wrong at the company, you could lose your bitcoin, as it’s not covered by any bank guarantees.
- Changing regulations could negatively impact you.
- You’re suppressing bitcoin’s fiat (dollar) price because these companies often don’t actually hold the amount of bitcoin they claim to, similar to traditional banks.
It’s a common theme. Maybe meet him /her in the middle with collaborative custody?

@npub1536…pswl I haven't tried out Strike yet but plan to do so soon. When selling bitcoin, should I then set 'Receive Currency' to cash in Strike? If yes then it would be good to mention this when configuring the Payment Method, otherwise your fiat will immediately be converted to bitcoin I believe.

But you asked a different question? It would be better to point to an older dictionary definition of inflation to prove your point then to the Austrian definition. It is not as if the Austrian School was mainstream before.
Austrian definition of inflation
ChatGPT
According to Austrian economists, inflation is not merely the rise in the general price level of goods and services but is fundamentally linked to the increase in the supply of money and credit beyond the actual supply of goods and services in the economy.
Gemini
Austrian economists define inflation as a general increase in the money supply that is not offset by a corresponding increase in the demand for money. This leads to a decrease in the purchasing power of money, which is manifested in rising prices.
Grok
The Austrian School of Economics defines inflation primarily as an increase in the money supply that is not offset by a corresponding increase in the demand for money or in the production of goods and services.
