Now that I can create personal mobile apps, the issue is that I'm locked in the Apple infra which makes it much harder to run your own apps. Android is far easier.
Any advice? A Testflight account? A real dev account and just submit and hope the app gets approved? #nevent1q…f6t5

As global/uncurated feeds are becoming full of AI slop, I choose to scale down and interact only with my WoT, my family being the first one. #nevent1q…mmz2

2026-06-30 13:25:42 UTC

I'm gonna write a little social network + chat server and client for my family, invite-only. And I think Nostr is an overkill for it, I don't need its advantages. Run the server on a cheap VPS, pair client with server and off you go.
But I'm tired of this and that app being blocked in different countries, p2p messengers failing all the time. Not sustainable for my mom. A simple Twitter-like timeline + group chat is all we need as a family.
I'll open-source it, too, maybe someone else will need it.

Yes, there may be difficulties down the road, but it'll have to become large enough to be noticeable. Which will already be a win. After that, it's a matter of dealing with what comes.

The best way is to use a no-KYC swap service. sideshift.ai allows for swaps up to $30k. Unless you mean with fiat? Then use HodlHodl.
As for hardware wallets, Jade has the best support for Liquid. For smaller amounts, Blockstream or Aqua wallet is good enough.

In a world where everything is a psyop, you may want to lean only on your senses: what you see, hear and feel.
But soon enough, even that will be difficult. Holographic projection, advanced haptics, neural interfaces and environmental AR will eventually make “seeing is believing” obsolete.

I don’t say this because I’m biased because Tetrapolar is working on a USDT integration. It’s the other way around: Tetrapolar is integrating it because I think this way.
Tetrapolar can stay BTC-only and have 5 users for 10 years or implement what they actually currently use and nudge them towards using the best money there is.

John is not incorrect if we talk about the current market reality. USDT has massive volumes when it comes to cross-border deals.
Instead of ignoring it, I prefer to treat it as a “gateway drug” to bitcoin. If you know how to use USDT, you already know how to use BTC.
Most people don’t care about what bitcoiners care about. But every time USDT freezes a wallet or similar, highlight why bitcoin is better and why it’s the end game.
