I disagree that the outcomes have been harmful. The vast majority of feedback from new users setting up wallets is positive, if you check the replies the the bot. If you can identify any instances you think have been harmful, please let me know. The only negative feedback it has received is OGs saying it's annoying and won't work. npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Wife told me to buy a house-warming present for her friend. Got her a heater. npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Jacked to the tits! npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Are you aware of his background and how he came to be free? Adds some context. npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Tried @npub1qmw…4er8 for the first time today. Payment and usage was very smooth. Recommended. https://media.tenor.com/HEMQmYHww6MAAAAC/borat-borat-very-nice.gif npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp There's a shitload of pizza here npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp These images are getting better and better faster 😄 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Thanks for playing! npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Block numbers and their hashes are the same as the real Bitcoin network. Order of ticket numbers is sorted according to users' npubs, so it's always the same ticket numbers (assuming hash rate is constant). It doesn't actually matter what the order of ticket numbers is, because the real block hash is used to determine the winner. npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Thanks man. Yeah it's happened a few times. In a decentralized system there's no way to prevent it. But it's a bit of work to do it each time just to get 3 sats, so if people wanna waste time doing that then I don't really mind lol. npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Another big week for the @npub10pe…n34f donation 💚 Thank you players 🙏 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Check them out! 👍 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Just noticed https://Bitcoin.com has had a rebrand. Now orange, no mention of bcash that I could see. New owner? Or just a gimmick to make money? npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Huge @npub10pe…n34f donation last epoch! Thanks to the big hitting players 🙏💚 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp You can just make stuff. Vibed this with zero code written. Just prompts over an hour or so. Frekin amazing. Make a copy and try it out yourself 👍 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Pretty sure you can get many different types of MP3 players on Amazon etc. npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Ebay etc. people probably sell old stuff? npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Could you please expand upon your thinking? 😄 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Wow! 🤯 Three big hitters this epoch. Pretty sure this will be our biggest @npub10pe…n34f donation yet! Big thanks to these players for making it possible 💚 Good luck over the next few days 🔥🤙 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Still just one player, join up now! 👇 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp The race is heating up 🔥🔥 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp @npub1qny…95gx and the rest of the team at OpenSats is a good force for Bitcoin and the other things we care about. We continue to provide weekly donations via Minestr players' generosity 💚 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Why don't you set it in your profile? npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp I don't think any client will have total control. I'm wondering, is it theoretically possible to go back to how it was before, i.e. pre-taproot where large amounts of data couldn't be stored in a tx? Maybe I'm not making sense because I don't understand all the ways data can be included. npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp We have a new challenger 😲 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Wow, the payout pool for this epoch is already over 100k sats! 😲🚀 https://image.nostr.build/af83935c6dcca2c59cbf373c1018ca7e37506be661325d59212b4fc9344380e3.png npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp 🏆 Leaderboard Update (Epoch progress: 1%) npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp @npub1jjn…vknm is kindly sponsoring this epoch at Minestr. Check out their services below! 💚 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Big thanks to @npub1jjn…vknm for being a Silver Sponsor for epoch 33! 💚 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp 🧡 OpenSats Donation Leaderboard Update (Epoch progress: 73%) npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp 🏆 Leaderboard Update (Epoch progress: 59%) npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp 🧡 OpenSats Donation Leaderboard Update (Epoch progress: 47%) npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Players going hard this epoch 😲🔥 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp I'm hoping to increase the number of players each epoch. But it's difficult to get the word out hehe npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Thanks for sponsoring this epoch @u7xo 💚 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp 🏆 Leaderboard Update (Epoch progress: 22%) npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Generous players this epoch have increased their donation above the default amount! 💚 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Joining late in an epoch makes it difficult because the existing users will have already mined the most blocks! Getting in early is highly recommended. Thanks for playing 💚 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Don't forget to plan your purchases carefully! Look at the power required for each miner/cooler and plan accordingly. Also, you can sell your old equipment to help pay for the new stuff! 😊 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp No, because fees are the cost of block space. And block space is limited, which is what ensures bitcoin's decentralisation. That's why you see shitcoins with near 0 fees, because they're not secure or decentralised. npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Maybe it's because you call it a "crypto-only" store? Bitcoiners would probably be more inclined to use your store if it was bitcoin only. Crypto is just a distraction. npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Ideal, yes. But not realistic. Kinda like what socialists yearn for. npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp No one will catch his stack, but they can compete on a week-by-week basis, perhaps? npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Why not? npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Updated user links on https://minestr.app to point to @npub1wyu…87ez, our fav nostr client! 💚 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp much fun having npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Looks good. I wonder how they determine in which order the wallets are displayed? Not really important, but there must be a reason (it's not alphabetic). npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Got some a few wks back in anticipation of this! npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Actually the CGT on crypto in Japan isn't a flat 55%, that's just the max income tax (crypto profit is categorised as income). Still shit though. npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Alright! @npub1jg5…6n8n is in the house! They're going to have to up their hash rate if they want to catch the others though... 😄 Thanks for playing! A donation is made to OpenSats every epoch! 💚 https://image.nostr.build/6386edba8dbe4c506f38cfa397fa11daa3efd73d137f83784ee2711e3683881d.png npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Thanks for the generous OpenSats donation @npub16ye…g4wn ! npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Thanks for the zap @npub1jg5…6n8n Perhaps you would like to play? I'm actually using the blockstream API for the game 😉 By the way, it seems your nostr address isn't working... npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Make sure to read the Rules and FAQ to make the most of your gSats! Different items give different levels of performance, so plan and spend wisely! npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Only 5 blocks in and the epoch payout is already over 20k sats! 🤩 Make some of it yours! https://image.nostr.build/d1fdec06e633e1d03c4245738c0e7112f8496d4c18c631ab05b99950cc4caf23.png npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp 📡 Epoch 27 Update npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Heard a rumour that the next epoch has a silver sponsorship... 🔥💚 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp You're killin it @npub16ye…g4wn lol npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Hang on. You broke your tooth while on the way to the dentist? npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Any explanation? npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp The payout pool for the current epoch at minestr.app is now up to 26,790 sats! Why not join? There's still plenty of time to catch the leader 👍 npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Has anyone mined a block with node-bitcoin-miner? :D npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Thank you! npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp By the way, how did you find us? npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Very easy!

Does this indicate plans to add to the reserve in your opinion? npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp I'm guessing btcpayserver, if you're after a more complete suite of business-related tools npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Signal 100% npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp The LN invoice you are seeing is probably the invoice to join the current epoch, not for sponsorship :) npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp https://image.nostr.build/8501d46c51eff6cbd476bc6b5699b7753d1c1386a3936e93e7b130af4aa527af.png npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Yes sir, you can confirm by entering your npub in the sponsor screen again. npub1mlnersd9cup2n3p5xrytccgfa73p4resxe5a2ljq9rez2ancr8usmnu7x8 minestrApp Hey, thanks!
