I think it’s good that you don’t add sulfites, but I don’t think that’s why people feel bad. As you know American wine companies can and do put all kinds of things in wine (60+ different things) and not disclose. Whereas the EU has more restrictions on what can be added and what needs to be disclosed. Wine hangovers are often from additives, histamines, and sugar in sweeter wines. Sulfur sensitivity occurs in around 1% of the population

Yes sort of. There is no capitalist economies acting without government and oligarchs influence- is it even possible?
While Bitcoin has some opportunity, it largely operates under KYC regime and country tax programs.
Do you see a path for that to change on a country and global scale? Will power give up power?

Petrichor, by the way, is a pleasant odor after a rainfall following a warm, dry period. Teraflop is a unit of measure for calculating the speed of a computer. Dumbphones are just that, mobile devices we used before the smartphone revolution. And ghost kitchens, which came into their own during the pandemic, are commercial spaces for hire.
Other additions: “cold brew,” “farm-to-table,” “rizz,” “dad bod,” “hard pass,” “adulting” and “cancel culture.” There’s also “beast mode,” “dashcam,” “doomscroll,”“WFH” and “side-eye.”

Yes, true on every continent right?
I don’t have a solution, but just going with “property rights” when much of that property was taken by force or by manipulating the current fiat system… propagates the injustice. To take an extreme, should property rights protect the Putin and the oligarchs, or other authoritarian leaders?
Again, don’t have a solution there..

Thanks for engaging, sorry for slow get back
There are wealthy people and families who are first generation, 3-5 generations, or multi-centuries. Those families are made up of people of varying motivations, upbringings, and disposition.
Many try to keep their wealth and power, it’s starts out as “I want to care for my family and the next generations” and that is noble. Then it degrades.
So those people form relationships with like minded, like-resourced people and sometimes do great things and sometimes not. I think Bill Gates is well intentioned but takes things in the wrong direction.
What will two generations forward of the OG Bitcoiners be like? We don’t know.
Back to the top, I don’t like overly broad terms like “globalists” that make it seem like anyone seeking to help humanity is evil. Are the leaders of the EU evil or just people trying to do what’s right

People have many Bitcoin wallets with different purposes.

To receive bitcoin, I have to give a Bitcoin or lightning address to the sender, so now i have to give them an npub?

there is a conference about identity and privacy next week, might be of interest to some here
>>> The first of those, VRM Day, will be focused entirely toward development on MyTerms, known officially as IEEE P7012: Draft Standard for Machine Readable Personal Privacy Terms. As I put it here,
>>> MyTerms... will flip the script on how privacy is respected online, obsolescing notice-and-consent and opening markets to far better forms of mutual trust. It will also set the stage for far better signaling of intentions and agreements between customers and companies, making what was prophesied in The Intention Economy come true. When it does, People vs. Adtech will be a fight people will win.

# Bitcoin Custody Options (not exhaustive list)
Here are the main ways to custody bitcoin, from least to most self-sovereign:
- **Centralized Exchange** - Shared custody wallets (Coinbase, Kraken). Some like River and Swan* allow buying/holding but not deposits
- **Mobile Custody Apps** - Strike, Fold (simplified centralized custody) - for small amounts
- ** Mobile Bitcoin or lightning Wallets ** - good for small to medium amounts
- **Single-Signature Hardware** - Trezor, ColdCard (the word “wallet” is not right, these are transaction signers)
- **Self-Managed Multi-Signature** - 2-of-3 setup using Sparrow and hardware signers
- **Assisted (or Collaborative) Multi-Signature** — Companies like Unchained, Casa, or Swan hold 1 key, you control 2-4 keys plus backups
- **Multi-party, Multi-Signature** — All keys held by separate companies (like Onramp). Requires identity verification (video) to sign transactions
- **Bitcoin ETF** - This is in essence having a third party hold bitcoin for you. Self Custody is better, but this is an option that is better than fiat
**Important Considerations**
- Security (physical, digital, social engineering)
- Access & Recovery
- Counterparty Risk
- Estate Planning
