Does it mean BTC cannot be open source then? It was its core Irgun after all. Also what type of bad development practices/changes specifically you refer to?

Maybe. The question is why long term holders sell at this price now?

Although I like primal a lot and it’s way better the other social media I don’t think it will do what it aspires to in this Video. Although I have to admin video is quite cool 😁 great vibe!

Primal. I tried previously from web client. Now from mobile and it worked 👍

The project I would envision would hell a lot is real connection and cooperation between people that leave in same regions like meet-ups … still I think it should be sth more day to day. Local BTC economy like

Exactly. Price stabilization isn’t stagnation—it’s maturity. This phase lays the groundwork for real CryptoCommerce, where Bitcoin moves from speculation to circulation. Stability opens the door for it to function as money, not just an asset. Still I think in our community there is huge fear for spending BTC as hold of value seems to be only consensus for BTC use case now. I wonder if anyone here on Nostr believes in CryptoCommerce path?

I like that video. Spot on which what social media takes away from our lives. Primal is more authentic it’s also nicely gathering freedom focused people. Lack of fake algorithm is great as well still. Using primal which is great is also increasing screen time a lot doesn’t it? To realise vision from the video we soul have to have an app that unites people in phisical space. How we can connect freedom believes more locally via real life interaction?

btw tried to zap you but it did not work ?

Yep, from people I know. For unknowns mixture tbh spends on how busy I am. what about you? I presume if you phrased this question like that you are not using voice calls at all? If so is that more of a convince of using apps instead or is there freedom value aspect of such usage?

Agree we finally have technology to make it all happen - I actually love Freedom Tech perspective - a quick card below. Still, @shortfiat@`Short Fiat` don't you think people that use such tools or mindset in general are in vast minority? Moreover it seems that was always the case. Will freedom movement with BTC and Nostr be a silo for likeminded people or will it be bigger trend that is comming?

With that I agreed 100%. More comfy exit option make profit realization easier - thus flattens higher end of bull run. Still not sure if that is main driver to be honest. I would risk to post a theory it may be indeed market players are way more mature with laods of institutions in place - thus less random trade moves, more stable price. Still this does not explain why old addresses - long term holders start to sell now... could be price push down before bigger jump. Don't know.

Could this alignment between Bitcoin and Nostr hint at a future where all digital systems — finance, identity, media — converge toward true user ownership? Or will legacy structures always find new ways to re-centralize?

By cycles do you mean price cycles? If those are dead then price will not go much higher but further stablize. Yeah I get the point some people sell not to rebuy at lower price point and indeed it seems to be less and less possible further we go. Still to your key answer: "Because some of them are using history as a guide" if they would be doing it they would wait longer for ATH unless you refer to bull period weeks count? Such approach is quite off I think as it's dumb repetition it seems not reacting to halving and phycology of the market.

Yeah , there are many ways to build a grounded, positive life — religion’s one of them, but what really matters is having a value set that keeps you steady. The right people around you make all the difference. I like to think that this can be achived by working on projects where we share similar values. If you’re into building solid crypto projects around yoru belief and want actually using crytpo as real money, check out CryptoGetsReal — that’s exactly what we’re about.

Thanks I’ll check it out. Just had a quick read about it and … 🤩

Diablo 2 was great as well

Heros Might and Magic III, Gothic, Europe Universalis GTA San Andreas

That is overstatement tbh. I think policy makers are quite sane and smart about what they do and why they do it. Writing about insanity is naive!

Sorry I am getting this right. Is that a potential sentence for building open source software that simply provides pseudonimity in BTC usage? I get this who black market thing but - privacy strong toolset is not a crime!

Same here. O do it all the time. Still trying to push back on it as it does not make sense to highlight all… but if the book is good well, It’s hard to resist 😀 Can you guess which book is it from👇
