Do I try and speak against the growing popularity of buying #KYC #bitcoin , or do I distance myself from the simps and mind my own business? Do I sit and watch children play in traffic or do I make them feel stupid so as to make sure they don&#39;t do it again? It&#39;s really a moral problem for me. And to all the &#34;innovators&#34; who have made bitcoin more user friendly while giving the government free access to otherwise innocently ignorant people, all while being worshipped as heroes, just fuuuuuuck you. 2024-08-06T14:49:08Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs06wpsnu3wyf9pzlwjkygk78lmyvgv073g4f5n6vhncrm8ea2vcdszyq4s96ufkt583f2lzrjy6s6tt282dfqulzkjxd4mxs5ezz3z4s6p5vhj0hc In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqst2m8m3umnfxc0x9eu49ap6zf4yul4xs5ej0mdwtd3d08p0zp99aq9mg4vr'>nevent1q…g4vr</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>No need, they&#39;ve already started, and have automated systems to handle the majority of the inbound data. 20 years from now, they will have that information nice and organized, ready to knock on your door and force you to give account for every unreported zap. We have nostr sites created by devs on here that track how many zaps youve accumilated. 2024-08-06T14:34:13Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs8ajtenkzpxd98mtp0xfeh9rraeak3gmsw9xmzjtyn0rh28ayp5zczyq4s96ufkt583f2lzrjy6s6tt282dfqulzkjxd4mxs5ezz3z4s6p5nu3mrk I won&#39;t claim that I discovered the legendary berkshire blue amenita, but I&#39;ll be interested to see what this becomes in a few days 👀<br/><br/>For the mushroom enthusiast, this would be the equivalent of finding the arkenstone.<br/>#nature #shroomstr #grownostr<br/> <img src="https://image.nostr.build/bb2390476a227618999901c36d9e69a0774b75ada32cb60e3e77a766cb6583a0.jpg"> 2024-08-05T16:41:25Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsrd2ex8eqwukeraaffxqlmg673xkrdxazmvg0vtlwh0lx8n59dt9szyq4s96ufkt583f2lzrjy6s6tt282dfqulzkjxd4mxs5ezz3z4s6p5r8mxss In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqspqr8t0czl5ee52qe8l9qdnyam0vhhvh89uqsq4gd070cm0l89ddqrn8yxl'>nevent1q…8yxl</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>The majority of the population believes that inflation is due to climate change, not their lords deem &#34;necessary quantitative easing&#34;.

At this point, we can expect bitcoin to follow the market as it&#39;s been whored out and mainstreamed due to tyrant pressures. We are about to see that SOV means nothing without privacy. #btc #xmr 2024-08-05T13:06:57Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsyetj729vmf6y8c665wshd2lzhzk8ezev6h3vn2y4k3yu5mgv0azgzyq4s96ufkt583f2lzrjy6s6tt282dfqulzkjxd4mxs5ezz3z4s6p57l3u7e In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqswdfee7k8a3c2ygaefa3u06p67j9zajca9s80yvnrp83u2ldq7x7sgp37qs'>nevent1q…37qs</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>vpn gets you places the USA sanctions my man, you gotta lot of homework on your hands already so i dont want to overload you, but we&#39;re pretty nice here on nostr and will help when you need it.

Gold doesnt make sense to me as no commercial cashier is going to know what to do with it, maybe if you are dealing directly with the store owner, but not otherwise. Something that you can convert to digital fiat is the best and most practical option. I prefer monero for simplicity over lightning or liquid which need extra effort and know how to operate privately. 2024-08-04T23:16:36Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsxed94ju6vsxr34v8830u29wv4z7e4wm6rxyr9j3yfnnaaak9wfhczyq4s96ufkt583f2lzrjy6s6tt282dfqulzkjxd4mxs5ezz3z4s6p5pnk704 Imagine, if you will, the inevitable overreach where the government forces Cashapp and Strike to give up their clients information at gunpoint or by that of harming their family. You are on their list and must give account of every sat you purchased or received as a non anonymous tip or payment. You&#39;ll be rewarded for your compliance and rat outs or punished by your resistance with force. You will be rewarded and well compensated for reporting any coins you know of that are nonkyc. Many of us are just one executive order away from this reality. I feel like our threat models should take this very real situation into consideration. 2024-08-04T22:28:57Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsvaxcjfue0rxfee54r7kpyq0wkjnnjl6n9gze5h48raf94hpdk8dgzyq4s96ufkt583f2lzrjy6s6tt282dfqulzkjxd4mxs5ezz3z4s6p5pymuns Good morning!
