Looks like a beautiful rainbow to me. Remember that Satoshi was the only miner, node operator and dev for the entire first year of Bitcoin's existence. So we're already much more decentralized than the first edition

Yeah I'm using Phoenix wallet which has worked very consistently. The custodial wallet would be nice since it's not tied to one device, but I get the tradeoffs. At the very least, as a user I would hope for more transparency and warnings about potential withdraw issues. Otherwise it seems very shady

I won't be using your service again because this also happened to me back in January when I tried withdrawing 50k sats. I was able to do that eventually in 10k chunks but the experience spooked me. Now after this latest withdraw issue my trust is gone, but thank you for responding

Then why is none of that shared with users. We just get stuck sats in coinos. "We have a withdrawal feature, but it's probabilistic"

2026-09-03 18:44:50 CEST

This seems like a pretty fragile system if it requires manual monitoring. At least let people know 'if you want to withdraw X amount over lightning, it may/may not work'. Or provide visibility into current liquidity

I'm more optimistic about nostr than ever because of the way I and my community are starting to use it. The 'people paying attention' can only compare it to X which it will never be. It's a community communication platform designed for energy exchange without someone profiting from the activity, which is why some people don't like it

2026-09-03 17:39:23 CEST

I've seen similar posts from @npub1xts…kk5s and @npub12rv…85vg implying nostr is dead. In reality it's starting to show sparks of life, so they're trying to kill it. They're trying to make you feel like a loser for being here. Don't feel like them, feel good and keep using #nostr

Scammers gonna scam. Damus auto-signs you up for a coinos wallet which seems great at first. You will receive zaps, but try sending those sats to a different wallet, and it really doesn't work for large amounts. I had to do this via on-chain transaction which cost weeks worth of zaps in fees. #nostr isn't failing because of the idea or the technology, the ruling class is just as corrupt as our government and the old bitcoin. So I think there will be an inevitable schism or split that is required for it to really thrive

2026-08-28 06:46:16 CEST

It's amazing to me how much hate I've received for supporting Bitcoin #Blake2b. Let's take a look at the pathetic state of Bitcoin #SHA256 today:
-same number of nodes as in 2017
-mining is dominated by 5 big companies
-core devs are completely captured and appointing inexperienced stooges as maintainers
Is this what you're afraid of breaking up? We have nothing to lose. Bitcoin SHA256 is accomplishing none of the goals envisioned by Satoshi. Nobody is using it as uncensorable peer to peer electronic cash. The people controlling SHA256 are happy to see it as a decoration on a balance sheet. They're happy with their conferences and badges and social status. They see most people as stupid and unsophisticated. They've assumed power over one of the most powerful tools humanity has ever known, and only used it to stroke their egos.
What happened on August 8th was maybe the greatest purifying event in the history of Bitcoin. It separated the people happy with Bitcoin in its failed state from those who are willing to work to fulfill its vision. It's people like me who have put in the time and effort to learn how to run a node and miner who will write history, while those who are comfortable sitting back and criticizing while not actually doing anything will end up in its ash heap.
Go ahead and attack me. Show the world how out of touch and complacent you are. Those who believe will be ready September 1.

Decentralized technology doesn't do much good without underlying social cohesion in the communities using it. Otherwise you're just connecting to servers run by people you'll never meet, which isn't that different from what we already have. Fortunately #cochiseCounty already has a lot of cohesion in the opt out building community 😀

It's fitting that math, something that exists only in our minds, will be one of our main tools for liberation. We aren't as much physically oppressed as we are mentally. Our physical circumstances don't need to change as much as how we interact with each other - direct communications and transactions without intermediaries taking an arbitrary cut. Cryptography makes this possible, and it's really up to us when to start using this tool.

If you don't see the rot and corruption in Bitcoin Core, you are just not paying attention. This is not about vilifying individual people, but it is shocking that someone went from an alt coiner ready to give up on 'blockchain', to a bitcoin core maintainer in just a couple years. And it seems obvious to me this person was not promoted because of their dedication and history with Bitcoin.
I participated in the Chaincode Labs BOSS challenge earlier this year, which is run by Adam Jonas, who is featured prominently in this video. While the program was free and I learned a lot, it left a bad taste in my mouth. They refused to explain the criteria to advance to the second round, then simply cut off access at an unannounced time for those who didn't make it.
I left feeling they are looking for devs who will jump the highest when they tell them to, and dangling grants in front of them to keep them in the game. They are turning bitcoin into a career path instead of a tool that can free humanity. It seems to me Core has become another corporation that can be easily controlled, with its employees motivated by material gain https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xy8pVqxAGiI

I'm way more attracted by the 'bitcoin is money' philosophy and active energy of the bip 110 supporters so am following that path for now. Core seems on a path of passive acquiescence to many features not central to bitcoin's mission as money, and I don't see how that will change

Nice, I was convinced when I saw the popular opposition to the change on Github, and philosophically I am in favor of bitcoin remaining just money without all the extra features. It's been apparent for a while mining centralization is an issue, and I don't know how a new chain would fix that, but for the moment a new coin with a 'bitcoin is money' philosophy is more attractive to me than the core chain https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/32359
