Oh are you thinking Trump losing to Iran in the middle east is good for the dollar? xD
The great capitulation is good for america first crowd, and on that, I'm happy to see it, it was predictable enough from before the war.
But now? the dollar is doomed to have a slow and steady decline, as the Bricks axis just got consolidated and validated as a real power.

You got evidence for that? Or are you the source?

OK I freaking love that you guys found a way to do SP with onchain zaps. I also love this for a bunch of other wrong reasons, like now you can send nfts to people's nostr npubs lmao.
but also, i hate it because nsecs are the most prostituted secrets in bitcoin, even with remote signing. Time to improve the nostr id security stack. heard of frostr.org ?
This is the best solution to the key roation issue i've found, short of a key revokation NIP being widely adopted.

I have so many questions. First Onchain Zaps?? that's risky, if we ever get high fees again (if?) your zaps will break.
min fee is what 150 sats?
finally, can't you make this a stealth address? that would actually solve privacy for this usecase. lol

Is there any self custodial wallet that supports NWC for nostr?
I know Zeus technically counts but honestly having a really hard time making heads of tails of the Zeus interface.
Breez supports NWC?

Working on an article for Bitcoin Magazine intended to be a deep dive introduction into Nostr.
What are the most important NIPs to explain?
The coolest apps to show off?
The most popular use cases of the Nostr protocol?
The most obvious ways in which it helps Bitcoin grow?

yeah, though a round or two of obfuscation at liquid I think still make sense. since a striaght btc -> lbtc -> btc path with full same amount inputs and outputs would be too obvious.
some coinjoin cloud style obfuscation would be needed. but liquid has better scripting might not even need a coordinator, nor other people's inputs to mix with.
just a transaction without an obvious intent, if that makes sense.

im literally baffled by that pop up lol.
is there a list of wallets that support NWC somewhere? 😁

Ok yeah, someone else def has my domain. I guess i gotta fork out 100 nmc for it xD.
Id like to try this a cheaper way first.
electrum nmc still gud?

Hmmm.
I definitely bought that once but I don't know if I had to pay to keep it and I certainly haven't paid in a long time.

oh. just wondering where to buy my .bit domain, if im understanding the integration correctly.
Anyway, would have to add it to my list of things to figure out, which is long.

That is awesome so I can get at name coin domain as my nip 5?

I guess I just deleted on the Amethyst Front. I have no idea what that was LOL. I just know I set it up years ago with an early test client that is now dead.

Using Primal and Amethyst at the same time right now.

You know what I hate about twitter? and social media in general but maybe there's a format that fixes it.
Any remotely contentious debate has a high chance of devolving into an ego-fueled, chest-pumping game of who is the biggest asshole.
Would love to see a no-nonsense UI that was focused on concise but thoughtful discussion.
Some rethinking of reddit perhaps. But not reddit lol. That's also full brain rot.

2026-06-03 00:41:24 UTC

I genuinely have no idea what to do here.
Pro tips?

Can someone tell me how to change this "juangalt@current.ninja". on my account?
And what platform or w,e I should update it with?

I would be willing to be money that solving the password reset problem would at least slow down the bleeding.
Nostr needed a key recovation protocol yesturday.

Omg its so brutal. That might be why I dont see any bitcoin content. the most dedicated shitposters are all for 'filtering' bitcoin and as a result I muted them all.

2026-06-03 00:03:10 UTC

Why has no body built a coinjoin system ontop of the liquid network?
Balances are encrypted there. It is one of the oldest Bitcoin 'side chains'.
Seems like low hanging fruit.

2026-06-03 00:02:52 UTC

Hi everyone. Gonna give nostr another run, because Bitcoin twitter is fkn dead.

Alright. Given there's a new wave of a hostility incoming towards the open internet, I'm going to give Nostr another shot.
Finally figured out how to reset my relays and now it works much faster then before, so good!
Gonna start sharing my articles here going forward and keeping an eye out.
Starting with this one, where I shit post about Ethereum. Enjoy!

Gotcha. Verifying to my own domain sounds cool though. I'd be down to do that!

Heeey, Snort looks pretty smooth.
