Howdy!

Ignore the price. Stack sats and push ups today. Price discovery will come in due time.

41 days of 100 push ups a day until $100k down. Undetermined to go.
37 days of 100 squats a day until $100k down. Undetermined to go.

And that's why I always said: just use Bitcoin, nothing else. Get the fuck out from fiat world and let them became obsolete.
Create those bitcoin circular economies around you, with small merchants.
Earn in bitcoin, spend in bitcoin, save in bitcoin. Is so fucking simple.

People who own private airplanes are perfectly allowed to let their friends travel on them without kyc

Someone should use that fact to start a no kyc airline

No one solved my Easter egg hunt but @0xbitcoiner gave it a good try.

In today's This Day on SN post, a post from @nout from 2021 was featured. It talked about https://lightningbutton.com/

I had never heard of this project, so I clicked the link and then proceeded to click the CLICK ME button. I was redirected to a scammy "earn crypto" site. Then I discovered the click me redirect button could be purchased for sats and all it cost to displace the scammy site was 7910 sats, so I reclaimed the lightning button from the jaws of scam crypto and redirected it to Stacker News, where it belongs.

I don't know if anyone outside of the stackers will ever find the lightning button again but if they do they will find us. Thanks for everything you do to make stacker news a great community @k00b, @ek, contributors and all stackers.

Seems like a nice scaling solution that provides different custody methods/tradeoffs while improving lightning ux. Eric Yates was on tftc recently, he was talking how he see's the lightning/fedi/cashu space playing out, i'd definitely recommend the listen.

Depends on which exchange. Exchanges with order books like coinbase, kraken, etc just get their bitcoin from customers, people buying and selling fill out the order book. Exchanges like River, Swan, Strike, etc are brokerages and get their bitcoin from market makers and other services. Lots of these services just have accounts on the other exchanges and buy at whichever has the best price.

Mind blowing that other huge corporations are just sitting by and allowing MicroStrategy to do this. I think the only reason this hasn't generated such a buzz is because MicroStrategy isn't a household name.

If Google, Microsoft, or Amazon were doing this, you can be sure others would soon be following close behind.

Great question! Here are a few things that have helped me gain new perspective over the years:

  • Do a Vipassana retreat - 10 days sitting in silence will force you to question a lot of beliefs https://www.dhamma.org/en/index
  • Travel somewhere new and ditch the phone. Navigating and being forced to interact with strangers will give you all kinds of new perspective
  • Learn a new language - this one is a major commitment, but helped me reflect on how universal concepts get distilled in human communication and gave me a tool to interact with new groups of people with very different life experiences. I used Baselang several years ago for Spanish https://baselang.com
  • Travel somewhere where people live radically different lives. Chiapas and parts of Oaxaca were big ones for me
  • On the idea side, some of my favorites: Buckminster Fuller, Terence McKenna, Robert Anton Wilson, and Kevin Kelly. I've also really resonated with Vedic wisdom. Here's a great resource to find similar thinking, which I think you'll enjoy: https://organism.earth/library/

This is an excellent reminder to once again question my own experience/information inputs - thanks!
