Satoshi can reveal himself at any time simply by signing a message. Maybe his fingers itch somewhere and he occasionally feels like doing something like that.

But quantum computers might make it possible for anyone to eventually create such a signature. In that sense, we will all truly become Satoshi. And finally relieve him of that burden.

This is an amazing solution! I love seeing Cashu-related technology prevail as an opt-out from fiat rails Though not all normies have Android phones or access to Google Play / nostr:nprofile1qqs83nn04fezvsu89p8xg7axjwye2u67errat3dx2um725fs7qnrqlgppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9k...

> Set a threshold amount. Once your ecash balance reaches it, funds automatically transfer to your Lightning address. Once your Layer 3 amount reaches it, funds automatically transfer to your Layer 2 address? Does a business ever touch Layer 1 bitcoin?

Numo is great, but lacks on-chain Bitcoin and Monero support.

A fighter for the people? Heros always serve to keep the masses stagnant. No responsibility needed when a hero can do it for free. States run mainly on negative propaganda (psyops, false flags,...) with occasional positive propaganda (Olympics, moon landings, hero stories).

@Cashu is great for sharing bitcoin with people who don’t yet have any bitcoin or even a bitcoin wallet. However, when I compose a specific denomination, it ends up being a lot of tokens - in other words, a very long URL that I’m trying to use. The web URL is so long that messaging apps often don’t even recognize it as a link… and it can even look a bit like a scam. In printed form, I can’t use animated QR codes.

I understand that using powers of two has many advantages, such as privacy or simpler splitting and merging. However, wouldn’t it make sense in some cases to create one-time exact denominations? Or to keep it composed of many tokens, but allow the mint to temporarily group them into a single alias? Since there is already trust in the given mint, it feels like this wouldn’t introduce additional risk.

What do you think? @calle ? 🙏

Banksy is a Psyop. Incredible how many people fall for it because it's such a nice story behind this "mysterious artist".

There's plenty of alternatives, and I have and use plenty (innertune, musicolet, plain old VLC, etc). But after years of use there's always on thing missing, or one feature that doesn't work right, or some other annoying issue and thus I still use Spotify quite a bit. But I hate it.

The reason people use Spotify et al, myself included, is because curating and maintaining a stash of mp3 files is a full-time job.
