I almost pooped myself when I saw the price of Monero this morning. Nice.

Not that I'm big on a "price go up" mentality, but still -- nice.

Don't just "stack" XMR; buy some, earn some, spend some, give some away.

Those who use #SimpleX:

Do you ever find that incoming message notices are delayed, or never show up until I log myself in first?

I have that problem, but wondered if it's only because I'm using GrapheneOS.

Stop blaming GrapheneOS. It’s just that their "decentralized" myth collapses into a central relay dependency. You’re not using a protocol; you’re using a gated community with a slow front door.

I think it could help nostr if @Ken Berry, MD listed it on his web site or mentioned it once in awhile on his video podcasts. He's getting close to 4 million subscribers on YouTube, and he's active on nostr.

Give nostr a shout-out once in awhile, Dr. Berry.

🙋 same. I am happy to promote bitcoin and moneros. I believe a lot in moneros and privacy as a privilege for all (but the ones in position of power). I think everyone in office and above a certain amount of moneys should do all in bitcoin open ledger so that the people can scrutinise them. But...

The most joyous thing in the world when I was a kid was recess. Even more so, "extra recess."

My 10-minute breaks at work don't compare.

I just have to find joy in different places.

cock and ball torture. I'm just saying that as far as I'm aware lightning requires opening channels, which also costs money, and additional setup. Onchain zaps seem really easy to use right now, but r...

I will just point out that no one who uses Monero (XMR) has any worries whatsoever about this.

We can post our Monero address (especially a subaddress) and welcome tips without a care in the world about privacy. One less thing to worry about.

And it might cost the sender a penny.

People actually use Monero to buy stuff. Just saying.

That's because nobody uses it and fees are basically 0

That is fair, however to me it feels too.. out of place? Like, nostr has zaps, so I would probably first try them out, and if they fail me, I will post my Monero address. So far zaps feel like a nice way to send tips, and are much more integrated into nostr than XMR, I think. I hope I make sense, si...
