Do you have any plans to allow app devs to charge for using an app in btc? I'm all for an open source world, but we also want to be able to allow a true free market to thrive.

Roll dice for your entropy

Lessons so far from the Coldcard shit show:
Has to be fully open source.
Has to be independently audited
Has to have a team trying to break into them.
Has to have belt and braces for the most critical parts of the code which cannot change once tested and proven to work.
Experienced team

Do your wallets do an entropy check, so if a dev made a stupid error like what Coldcard did the system test can see the entropy level is too low and therefore doesn't produce any seed words and presents an error, making it easy for the devs to see what is wrong?

I don't know where my other reply has gone?
You seemed to be talking about Nostr when the post you shared is talking about altcoins and the scaling issue of blockchains, which is being compared to bitcoin not Nostr.

I also agree private by default is the way forward.... Hopefully decentralized and censorship resistant too.

2026-05-25 14:07:54 UTC

Very good and interesting points.
What did you think to the tornado cash mixing service they were doing and the like?
The main point for btc is that the first thing for btc to solve it monetary debasement. Which it solves. Obviously scaling and privacy need to be solved completely. But that work should only be done on bitcoin that solves the first problem well. Monero doesn't have a finite supply and the main devs / creators still have too much control.
Bitcoin is the only truly decentralized money we have that cannot be taken out as it stands. All others have massive weaknesses. Running your own nodes is obviously the way forward.
Yes, the server based system is weak which tends to always centralize too much. Nostr could centralize too much into a handful of client provides, but even then people can move clients or self host.
Although I only believe in btc as money, I do pay attention to other privacy projects. The most interesting one to me is the Autonomi Network being built by Maidsafe. A project that has been going on longer than bitcoin has been around. They have a beta network live that is completely decentralized, and has no servers in the traditional sense. Users can create an account with no ID, upload data, create apps websites, etc and only users that have the encryption can decrypt their data from the network. Each data node only has small parts of data from a user that is constantly moving around the network with lots of redundancy. If nodes turn off the data self heals and replicates. Is a very interesting and complex project. I'm really hoping the succeed because it will be a massive win for privacy anddecentralization for the people.
Here's their website if you are interested:

What's your issue with the lightening network and privacy?
Have you looked into Fedi and e-cash? Which is another layer above the lightening network.
Here's a great pod to watch to get further down the bitcoin rabbit hole.
Trust me as someone in bitcoin and crypto for over 12 years, there isn't any other crypto as money that is worth looking at. Bitcoin is a protocol, and protocols are winner takes all, just like TCP/IP for the internet. Any other needed features like privacy have to get build on top of it, and that is what is happening.

How do we know it is truly private? Is it all open source? How does our requests not become logged by the AI model?

Bitcoin Policy UK please speak to this lady that was on Peters show. She cleary understands the energy grid issue, but doesn't seem to know how Bitcoin mining can help.
Peter, it would be great if you could get her on again with an expert on how Bitcoin mining can help stablise grids.
The guys that were at the @nprofile…7u78 Free Energy conference in Lisbon this month would be a great place to look for experts. At least one of them lives in the UK I think.

Great post.
Do you think the bitcoins money properties may prevent or slow down of the adoption of bitcoin as an energy regulator as the bias stays strong? Or do you think the fact bitcoin is the only solution to the flexible supply system means this could be the trojan horse most are missing at the moment?
BTW, it was a great conference full of many great thinkers and engineers. Thank you

Guys, love your work, but would I would really love to see is you getting people on that don't agree with you about how Bitcoin is a fix to the issues we have, or even better getting someone on like that with someone like Jeff Booth or many guests that could debate and educate the many other voices out there that can see the issues, but they come up with the wrong solutions like Socialism. I want to see these guys really challenged and debate with the bitcoiners. It is probably a net benefit to us all too.
For example this economists that is popular:

Do you have any advice for someone trying to leave their career and work and get paid in Bitcoin to support the growth of bitcoin?

Thanks for the info Susie. I hope something comes good of this but hard to trust any of these guys.
Keep doing what you are doing. Your efforts are so important for the UK. It's a shame most don't realise it.

We are a transitional period to the Age of Aquarius.
Each Age has a tussle between the attributes of its sign and the qualities of its opposite sign.
The Age we are leaving is the Age of Pisces with the opposite of Virgo.
The Age of Pisces has had major challenges that have been part of our reality for the past 2000 years. We have been largely considering the values of faith, belief, religion, and intuition (Pisces) verses science, proof, logic, and hierarchy (Virgo).
The coming Age of Aquarius energy vs its opposite Leo energy:
Aquarius has to do with the good of the group, personal detachment, and concerns of the eclectic "whole". However, its opposite, Leo, believes in individual sovereignty, passionate feelings, and the ability to decide for oneself the appropriate course of action.
Bitcoin is the greatest tool to allow the collective society to grow and the individual to grow. Recent times and politics has created a fight between these two concepts which has meant both suffered.
Finally both the individual and society can grow for the better, which will ultimately result in less power for the state.
It won't be a smooth ride, but where we are going is positive for us all.

Energy cannot be created or destroyed.
The Fiat money printer allows the elite to 'create' energy, which is like playing god.
But because they cannot create energy, they can only steal energy, they create a imbalance in human society.
Just like a human body will have an imbalance if it does not sleep well, eat well, exercise, etc.
Human society needs a tool to exchange and store human energy, just like the human body needs an internal system to distribute energy through the body.
If either is out of balance then the whole system does not function well and can lead to illness, bad symptoms, and even death.

Great video Jack. But I wouldn't say a ticket to get out now is 1 btc. People can have a lot less than that to get out. They just need to know it is a route out and that they need to aggressively start saving in it and hopefully earning it directly if possible.
