How about not caring about statists? Don't give the state your attention and they won't have any power.

In an ideal world sure, but the state is a long way from losing power that way and as much as you can stop caring about the state it will keep caring about you. It may not be the way you specifically go about making the world better, but having better people in positions of power does make a differ...

I don't understand the complexity. For the taxi driver example: If its a hot wallet with small amounts why not save the seed phrase direclty in a password manager? Once the amounts increase there is now way but to study the different forms of self custody and the tradeoffs.

It's Lightning; could add another digit for millisats.

Looks like the merchant only gets 940 Sats.

Square really went with that for the sats symbol 👎 https://npub1lrnvvs6z78s9yjqxxr38uyqkmn34lsaxznnqgd877j4z2qej3j5s09qnw5.blossom.band/a679bc8db6ad5a6e2c182c9f9b88001e372262e322745868e561c196e8bb...

Extremely confusing to "normies" as they probably know that one Bitcoin costs thousands of US-Dollars as seen on the news.

Btw the exchange rate has decimal digits? 940.96 Sats for 1 USD? That's very precise, lol.

probably based on fee % they take.

exactly. no one knows wtf the sat symbol is. this is good branding for the normies

Why? The Bitcoin symbol is already on the left as an icon and it says "Bitcoin received". We need the normies to understand Sats as well, otherwise they will be completely confused. They probably know that one Bitcoin costs thousands of US-Dollars, so this won't make sense for them.

Why use Google Play Store? Instead of trying to fix the current system, build/use a new one. There are many ways to use apps without permission.

Trying to fix the current system is a Sisyphean task imo.
