I've had propane regulator issues before too. Apparently if you open the propane tank valve too quickly, it'll trip an internal safety that limits the flow. Quick fix is to just disconnect, reconnect, and open slowly.

There are exchanges that will do Bill-payments for you. In Canada BullBitcoin has a massive list of payees. Billing company receives payment however they want, you pay in Bitcoin.

You're missing my main question. I'm not looking to do anything sketchy like private sales or cash deals. I know about non KYC Bitcoin and markets with peer to peer meet ups. Not interested.
If I needed to sell now I'd go through an exchange and report the transaction.
I'm looking for legitimate ways to sell Bitcoin in the future. Maybe a tax loophole. Does anybody run it through a corporation somehow? Friend or family overseas and then back in dollars? 🤷🤷
People avoid tax in fiat world all the time. Surely someone smarter than me has figured out how to do it legally with Bitcoin self custody.
Or not. Maybe one day.

The private transaction bit though... You then either live off the cash or have a traceable transaction going in to your bank account. Enough of those would raise questions.
I guess cash can work, but only to a point. Recent example, new tires on a truck for $1500. Not very many businesses are going to accept cash for that.
I'm not at a point where I need or want to sell BTC, but for sure someday I will.

How do you opt out of the capital gains tax when selling Bitcoin?
Even using a bill (credit card) payment service I'd imagine might catch up one day. Bull Bitcoin in Canada as example I'm sure reports client transactions even if bill payment style.
I'm not huge fan of using robosats style services.

He's referring to Ledger hacks and leaks, due mainly to having so many different chains available on their device... And Trezor moving that direction.

Can you explain for the commoner... How does this happen? Doesn't one side have to close the channel? Is receiving party just closing the channel because they didn't fund it?

Payout minimum is 0.01BTC, which if you're running an S9 at half power would take like 45-50 months. 😂
Maybe with lightning I'll do it... Or with bigger miner. Contemplating replacing more electric heating sources in my house with an S19 or something similar.

Maybe I'll just try it out and see what happens! 😂

Interesting. I heat a bathroom with a modified S9, with Braiins pool.
Braiins dashboard gives me a few options to tune the miner and fan speeds.
I'd imagine that's probably possible with Ocean as well. Yeah?

2023-11-28 18:23:17 UTC

I'm a very light user of the lightning network so don't really have an issue with custodial services.
I did however just move from WoS to Zeus with a GetAlby host. Pretty slick.
Maybe one day I go with a full private lightning node, but not yet.

What is Casa? I had a look through their site, but how does that service work? Is it simply a 'help line' to set up and recover multi-sig that you control yourself... Or do they somehow have a master back up in case you really screw up and lose all your signing devices?

S9 heater has been great so far. These are the settings that keep our large bathroom plenty warm, with no noise louder than the existing space heater we used to have in there.
12-14hrs a day.

I want to jump on board with this train of thought, but I still prefer to stay with the 'this is going to take a while' mindset.
I'm ready for a crazy pump with the BTC I have, but my friends and family are not.
Unfortunately I'm still the crazy Bitcoin guy, 4 years on. 🤷

....I guess I could've have zoomed out a bit. Not that out of of the norm really.

Do you have any insight on why Silver, and Gold to an extent, have taken such a hit the last week+?
Bitcoin doing well! 👍

Oh shit! I always thought that thing was for funneling the grounds in, not for actually pressing it!! Hence, I've never used it cause I thought it was pointless. 🤯🤯

Definitely!
I've always opted for the upside down brew method with aero press. Get all your ratios in, stir it, cap it, flip it, press it. ☕

Made worse that many of those same people now associate Bitcoin with that experience.

Is it possible for something to be both worthless and a threat to the financial stability of nations and central banks?
I would say no.

Hoping you might answer this question for me on how chain analysis calculates which coins are old or new on a given wallet.
Ex.
If I have a wallet with 10 BTC that was funded over 5 years with 100's of utxo's. Never more than 1 BTC in one spend from exchange.
Then I send 2 BTC.... How does it pull from that list of utxo's?
Most recent? Leaving the five year old 'coins' to be registered as unmoved?
I realize a hardware wallet most likely has multiple wallets its keys access. Just simplifying the example a bit.

Thanks for all your hard work. Amethyst working great for me.
Is there an option in the works to quote and share a note rather than just share?

Not throw away. Throw around. Totally agree, it's awesome.

Exceptionally hard for that generation to understand digital scarcity. Throw in entrenched in traditional finance and it's a lost cause... Or at least rare.
Weird that so many would value his opinion on Bitcoin.
At what point does mainstream just stop asking him for input? Crazy.

2023-02-16 16:15:08 UTC

Bitcoin and NOSTR. I don't have much to contribute other than buying BTC and following smarter people.
Nice exit yesterday from a day of backcountry skiing.

Thank you. I realize now why using public key to login would obviously restrict activity. It takes me a minute sometimes, but I eventually get there. Ha. 👍

Hi Vitor, this note is coming through Snort.social as I can't figure out why Amethyst is not pushing any of my notes out, or allowing me to reply to anyone. I'm using latest from app store.
