FW₿049 - Nostr & El Salvador THRIVING on Bitcoin Island

Jan 30 2023 • 57m

Show Notes

Why are only Bitcoiners on Nostr?Looks like the Nostr protocol is has found its groove as the new Twitter for Bitcoiners. Mandana, officially a Nostr OG, wonders what it’ll take for non-Bitcoiners to “get it” and join. Photo sharing? Make it the new TikTok? Ian says it’s bigger than that. Also, last week Mandana did her first Key Check. Do you know how to do yours? And finally, the Bukelle administration is paying off debt that was taken on by previous corrupt administrations… unlike any administration in the US in the last 20 years. Ain’t that interesting!Mentioned In EpisodeNostr - https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nostrToolsSatoshi Savings CalculatorFollow UsWebsite | Twitter | Instagram | Ian's Twitter |Ian’s Pubkey: npub1pmhevxtlt3478pvmdqt7dftnv6zc2mzpdc569yjm6ks4k2jhezcs53uksrMandana’s PubKey: npub1yz8n8jf7zye7ew6yftqr4hes6s3zlamaygr8amzkw05lwnqwjz5svspxp7RecommendationsStrikeSwan BitcoinUnchained CapitalFountain PodcastsStacker NewsStatsFlirting With ₿itcoin is 57713 Blocks OldIts been 999 Blocks Since Last Episode66265 Blocks Until Next Halving4346 Satoshis for $1 Get full access to Flirting With Bitcoin at www.flirtingwithbitcoin.com/subscribe

You have a VPN? I think your listeners are not where you think they are :-)

thanks for the sat-port✊🏾🧡 this is being reported by substack so I can't really do anything about the metrics. I'm sure some people are using VPNs but I doubt enough where is skews the data that much

Fork humanity! Great episode as always. Here are some sats I got from Damus when I tested posting an invoice and it got paid in seconds! Cool platform 😉It was also interesting to hear a bit about multisig. Would you recommend it for couples then? is the added complexity worth it?

@onesien

thanks for the sat-port and glad you gave damus a try 💜✊🏾If you're going multi-sig I'd start with unchained capital. they have a pretty simple setup and the web interface will make it easier to explain to your significant other.

We will give it a try 😉

@Mandana - while I love the curt language and appreciat the sentiment, we have young ears that repeat everything. Fork Humanity works but fuck flowers isn’t for everyone like you said. I know I’m flirting with BTC! Great show! Keep up the good work!

thanks for the shout out, not sure my wife is ready to give up her flowers just yet. I’m stacking for her for when she comes around to accepting btc as the family’s unit of account.

thanks for the continued support Dugle 💜✊🏾 we're all going to have something from fiatland that is hard to give up. For me it's going to be television. you should show her the news article out of Nigeria where they have restricted the amount of cash you can withdraw from ATMs so everyone is buying Bitcoin instead then show her how banks are starting to do the same thing here. that might at least get her on the path

I'll check It out, but I am not really sure about NOSTR. Before I had BRD wallet but then It turned into Coinbase, well...Never say Never again, I also have seen a lot of things.. Thank you Both you are a beautifull Couple..We LOVE YOU..thank you again..

thanks for the sat-port 💜✊🏾what are your concerns about Nostr?

@purplebow

I’ve only used it on Damus, but so far a big challenge seems to be finding accounts to follow. the global live feed, as you might imagine, is just a ton of spam, porn, and lightning invoices. credit where it’s due, legacy social media do a good job of recommending people worth following. but I have no doubt Nostr will get there 💪

well jack Dorsey is a good place to start. if you're a Bitcoiner, most the the main personalities are on nostr. and most of them have posted their pubkeys on Twitter.
