How much success have you had?
Bitcoin has to be normalized as money, this is a substantial step in that direction.
Have you tried doing that? Like ever?
Why? I don't think there is a private company that has done more for Bitcoin or an individual who has done more for Bitcoin than Jack besides of course Satoshi and Ross.
Could there be a Monero version of NOSTR with Monero micropayments that is interoperate with Bitcoin NOSTR? It seems like something technologically feasible that I would support but I am not tech savvy enough to make it or anything.
Paranoia mode off didn't change anything. Let me know if you want me to try anything else and I'll hit it again in the morning.
Would love to. Ticks are a bit worrisome though! It doesn't look like you're in my neck of the woods (no pun) however :/
Can’t wait to do it all again next time!
They don’t know what you are either

My city says I need a license to pray at home. The Constitution says otherwise
In America, no one should need a governmental permit to pray. The Creator has already given us that right, and the First Amendment protects it. I learned this lesson through a fight I never expected — a fight that has resulted in an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Iran, India and China, the "Axis of Evil” Seeking to Destroy Millions of U.S. Manufacturing Jobs
The simple reality is Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon, and foreign countries like China and India must not buy Iranian oil. The most important lesson from the prolonged Strait of Hormuz closure is that an overreliance on foreign countries for critical products supporting U.S. economic and national security harms America.

Graham Platner is unfit for duty
Some aspects of this affair reflect particularly on the Democrats, but certainly Platner’s vulgarity, boorishness, fecklessness, and defiant rejection of decent norms do not. As Jessica Tarlov, a Democratic Fox News contributor, noted this week, members of her party can hardly be blamed for rejecting lectures from Republicans, who have embraced President Donald Trump and who more recently gave the odious Ken Paxton a thumping victory over the decent and respectable Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) in the Texas primary.
