Yes, it should be added that the transaction was apparently created by PayPal as a payment for stablecoins from Paxos. PayPal, which routinely blocks people's accounts and freezes transactions without reason.
I made a notebook the other day.
I actually went to an art store and bought very nice quality paper, folded each sheet and sewed them together.
Will give to a friend so he can journal when he leaves for seattle.
He is a big fountain pen guy, and he has told me about his frustration getting good writing paper in the notebook style he likes.
We waded through the crisis narrative swamp during the blocksize war. We were warned that bitcoin would die and be replaced by something else because it couldn't scale and needed to do so immediately, apparently the world at large needed it immediately, some imbeciles even suggesting by 2018 it might be too late. The same bullshit is repeating itself with the faux security budget saviors trying to run their fork, inscription, and side-chain into the womb of a 15-year-old protocol. We need to fix the security budget immediately! No, you need to see a psychiatrist, and work on your self-control. Bitcoin's hashpower won't death spiral, security won't be deprecated allowing for 51% reorg fantasies, leaving a void to be filled by something else. There's a subtext to everything the big-blockers and chain-gang say if you listen and don't just hear:
PUMP MY BAGS
Bitcoin is on a long, difficult, and organic road from store of value, to transactional currency, to unit of account. The steps can't simply be leapfrogged, or sped up, like "crypto" would have you believe. There are many reasons for that outside the protocol which is a subject beyond the scope of this reply, but drivechain is ancient. It seemed relevant back in 2014 before the regulatory environment arrived, before "crypto" arrived, before Taproot arrived, before the immense innovation on the LN arrived. Drivechain frankly looks quite myopic and silly in retrospect. We don't need a 2050 fee environment in 2023 to satisfy your Lambitions.
I've been using nostr via Iris or Snort as a Twitter alternative. I find it slow and clunky. So I've been using it less. I'm interested in what others are building on nostr, but I'm seeing these same issues.
