Haven't watched yet but kinda what you're after??

Erik Aronesty joins the Bitcoin Infinity Show to talk about his role in BIP 148 and the User-Activated Soft Fork that reshaped the block size wars, and why he eventually traded his big-block stance for a small-block one rooted in bandwidth and node decentralization. He shares hard-earned lessons on Bitcoin mining economics, the long-term security budget question, and why he believes Bitcoin still needs protocol-level privacy through ideas like Mimblewimble alongside covenants like OP_CTV for vaulting and self-custody. The conversation digs into BIP 110, OP_RETURN policy, the difference between consensus and mempool rules, the dangers of KYC exchanges and Coinbase, and what it actually takes to keep Bitcoin sound money for the next generation.

@nprofile…r8tp your piece on scaling on #Nostr doesn't render in @nprofile…kclk which has a sweet irony about it, seeing as you describe how people view nostr at scale
The way I read your piece, initially feels like many plebs will get defensive and think you're trying to become the dictator, but once people understand that you cannot scale when fully decentralized, it just doesnt work
So the options are stay as a backwater social network that hardly anyone uses, but is fully decentralized, or give up something which the hardcore plebs will resist, and be able to scale
Pardon the pun but we are at a fork in the road, semi will get hate for proposing ways to scale, and the resistors will get hate for why it isn't scaling
That's one of the benefits of becoming a politician, you know that there is no answer to the perfect solution, so you ride the gravy train, while all the plebs are arguing about how to run the country, knowing full well there is no right answer

One phone is mobile data, other is hotspotted from mobile data
So im guessing that's classed as two networks
I do have a 3rd phone
Could try leaving main mobile data phone out and hot-spot both phones 2 & 3, technically they are on same network
Will try later
Thanks for commenting 🙂 😀

Had a play with Nostr VPN by @nprofile…nq3e
(I couldn't get it to work)
** Certainly a mistake I am making **
● Downloaded app on 2 phones
● Got the phones to recognise each other
● WireGuard failed to connect

Any tips would be helpful #asknostr

Just dropped a new work in progress release of my chess game!
If you're into it, check it out here:
https://chris21million.github.io/lightning-chess/
As a truck driver from the UK, I never thought I'd be shipping code like this.
But finding Bitcoin and diving headfirst into Nostr has leveled up my CS skills massively.
Hours on the road turned into hours learning, building, and connecting with pioneers across the protocol.
The future of Nostr? Absolutely bullish.
Keep building, keep zapping, keep pushing this open social layer forward.
