Runs Tor bridge and relays. Also runs a Bitcoin Lightning node.

What is Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is a fixed-supply, proof-of-work-secured, unspent-transaction-output-validated settlement network that anyone can fully verify on consumer hardware. Its base layer resists censorship by making it costly — not by trusting gatekeepers. Its rules are simple, explicit, and operationally testable. If a change makes sovereignty harder, or hands control to perimeters, it isn’t Bitcoin.

I was referring to the entire line of "research". And, I wasn't really implying that you are stupid. Not having considered everything, or not having assumed all perspectives, does not qualify for stupidity.
Sure, I want Bitcoin to succeed as an MoE. Not sure if my whole identity relies on it. Maybe some does. Perhaps that was my point. I see myself as an agent set on its success - because it'd be interesting. And, success often depends on your ability to bind yourself.
When it comes to progress, objectivity does not exist, ever - not even after a fact - because it's the winners that get to look back.
I'm happy your research have worked out for you. You posting it on social media made me think you wanted some counter- and/or perpendicular arguments. I'll admit though that giving feedback without pissing people off is quite challenging.

Having loosely followed your journey, my conclusion is basically that you have let yourself be convinced that Bitcoin is a bad idea by AI. While a lot of what you write makes sense, what is missing is a sense of agency and possibility. It's all very boxed in, and gives a fatal and nihilistic impression. It may be due to the inherent limitations of AI, but also a result of only looking at the money - without considering yourself as an active agent. From the top of my head, I'd recommend you read David Greaber's The dawn of everything - or bring it to recollection. For me, that book really underlined that, yes - most of the times your "Controllers" will screw you over - but sometimes, if the circumstances are right, you get to sever their heads from their bodies and things develop in a different direction for a while.

Spark is garbage from the outset. We'll see about how Ark actually helps trustless p2p exchange of bitcoin. I think it won't. Lightning is also becoming increasingly centralized, hostile/useless for nodes with pleb-reasonable capacity, and dominated by morons selling nothing but needless complexity and surveillance. Thus far, I'm not impressed.

I don't think I'd pay for social-media-via-nostr. SN has some threshold of quality. Nostr may be uncensored, but most content is of brainrot quality. Nostr doesn't fix social media, just like Bitmessage and similar stuff doesn't fix free speech. Uncensored usually just means more space for crazies.

OK. Now I read it. An hour of my life spent feeling vanquished and I feel older.
I think it's a sound text and makes a lot of sense. I was however missing some stuff that may be subject for future texts. It has mostly to do with data points. Admittedly, I'm a geek in my echo chamber that have no idea about what reality actually looks like. So, when saying I'd like some data on what the current estimates of actual dissent looks like it's because I hope there is some. Like, app stores have received critique and we have stuff like F-Droid. Likewise, there is continued work in de-googled systems, freedom stores for iOS, and stuff like that. Of course, if something becomes outlawed only outlaws can use that something, but you say that outlawing isn't really on the table anyway.
Another thing I was missing is some kind of analysis of the state of the art of other clients and whether that state tilts the favor somehow. There seems also be work on a client where it is up to the transaction submitter to provide all necessary data for the transaction - voiding the need to store other entities' stuff. This is called Utreexo. Yes, I know this has some way to go still, and I don't even know how far into the future the viability of using it is, nor do I know if there are any big blockers. But surely, since the ideas exist they must mean something. Incorporating these things might change the outlook - or not.

Hits the nail on its head. I do exactly this when faced with ad walls. Not sure that a pay wall would do better... But, one can hope. The thing is that just because something is interesting it's not necessarily valuable.

I like this idea! Should be called NOSTR Echo Chamber Kit, or something. All we need now is some central authority and/or fluencer that tells us which pack to install to protect children, the environment and our morals. Marketing it as an anti-impersonator tool is an awesome start.

Value come from utility. Bitcoin is of course a store of value, but will seize to be if the utility vanes. The narrative of first and foremost focusing on store of value is deceiving. When push comes to shove, Bitcoin will mean something but your paper claims on its value will not.

Bitcoin's power lies in giving people the ability to self-custody and to make private transactions between self-sovereign individuals without surveilling and controlling rails. The store of value narrative is a misleading maneuver; it gives power to the exact fiat control that needs to be made irrelevant.

The merchant isn't the enemy. The surveilling rails, such as Phoenix, are. Use your own node, or share one with people you know! Privacy AND self-custody is what makes the bank.

Reading the terms > Trusting the vibe. Bitcoin as captured store of value < Bitcoin as medium of exchange between self-custodying parties.

It's ok. Your argument is a typical for-profit one. In addition, some languages use the same word for stupid and evil. So, you have my full understanding either way.
But, no pros and cons of Strike vs Lightning Pay then?

I posed the question at https://stacker.news/items/1272818 a few days ago, and was recommended Lightning Pay. Then I saw you shilling surveillance in the name of self custody just by accident; some account re-posted your shill. When realizing you were associated with Lightning Pay I had to ask whether had some pros and cons scribbled down.

2025-11-08 15:23:31 UTC

- reply

Shilling centralized surveillance platforms under the guise of self-custody is what will make my MSTR stocks and other investments in paper bitcoin rocket. Thanks for helping!
On a much different note: I was actually checking out lightning pay a bit. Wanna quickly lay out the pros and cons between that and Strike?

It is a problem, and it shows that trying to capture and/or drown out bitcoin is a worthwhile effort. When it's too late to ban it other strategies are needed. All in all, a positive sign. The alternative would have been declining interest from both rulers and plebs.

Interesting. The texts do give some LLM-vibe, but I wasn't really sure. Probabilistically, I did lean towards that it was LLM-generated. Who types essays and articles by hand these days? Even serious scientists acknowledge having incorporated proof read LLM-slop into their works. What LLM do you use?

You mean like with a new nostr nsec? No, I have not tried that. Would be a bit tedious to recreate all chats and group memberships with a new nsec. But, I could of course just launch it with a new nsec and do nothing. Assuming you are curious about the OOM. A hint is that it doesn't eat memory ad infinitum after start if I click a chat. But now when I think about it, it does so after some activity in the group. It's been difficult to convert people, and nowadays they use whatsapp mostly again. So, I forgot that it sometimes OOMs in chats as well.

I'm on a recent Linux system that does not use systemd for pid 1.

2025-11-06 13:18:04 UTC

- reply

I am. I think the most annoying thing is that it eats all memory unless a chat is clicked. I've worked this around by trying to click a chat as soon as possible after start and also run it in a constrained cgroup so that it doesn't bring down my whole system. :) I'm also not sure how well it works at all any more. Chat group settings do not stick, encryption status is unclear, message delivery seems uncertain and pics/links work so-so. But sharing cashu in chats works, which is fun. We - a group of friends - have tried to switch from whatsapp to a nostr-based chat, but have yet to find something nice that works across multiple platfroms. 0xchat showed promise for a while...

Yes, I know about Keychat. It still needs to mature some - the deb package is likely for trixie and doesn't work on my Whonix workstation, and the AppImage flickers a lot but at least seems to work. I'm also not really convinced MLS is a good idea. But Keychat is a cool nostr thingy.

In investing you either timed the bottom or you have a long investment horizon. What you tell yourself differs according to how stuff develop. You seem upset - perhaps there is something you just need to understand better. Besides, getting rid of unnecessary fiat is always a good thing.

So, public cashu mints on bitcoin are providers of bearer tokens, they custody other people assets (after peg-in) and enables asset mixing and anonymous payments. Are you saying that this is legal and does need registration with some authority in the place you live?

I think it'll be similar to my plan with most big-corp stuff. If it can't be avoided, then get the cheapest thing that does what you need it for, and only engage with it minimally. I currently use LineageOS on my phone. Google-d. I think I'll drop the Google stuff on my next upgrade and just toss everything that stops working.
