Last Notes
I really have no desire to be rich just so I can buy an iPhone or a Ferrari.
I want to be rich so that I can be in control of my own time and paint at 3 o’clock on a random Monday afternoon, without having to keep an eye on the clock.
To sit in front of a canvas and work on it for hours, simply because I feel like it.
To have the time to pop into a café and relax for an hour, watching the rain fall.
To be able to cook at home, at my own pace, using fresh ingredients.
To be able to spend money on my family and friends without constantly worrying about the budget.
That’s my idea of a rich life.
Not having more things.
Having more time for the things that really matter.
I don’t know if artificial intelligence will kill us all within this decade.
But just in case, I’ve always started every request to ChatGPT, Claude e Lumo with ‘please’ and ended every reply with ‘thank you’.
In my opinion, this guy is more bitcoiner than many so-called bitcoiners.
Respect.

I sent you a small zap of 0.002 XMR as a token of gratitude 🙏
Have you noticed that I have a couple of my paintings for sale on xmrbazar? 😎
I fear that Ark and Spark are the next targets
I hope that one day all these encrypted messages will be made public because Blockstream isn't coming across very well.
When I suffered losses from Coinos and Mutiny Wallet—due to both bugs and critical vulnerabilities—the developers reimbursed me. The amounts were negligible, but they didn’t just apologize; they covered the costs out of their own pockets.
-Controversial post-
All the various Bitcoin services affected by critical vulnerabilities are apologizing, but none are offering refunds.
Apologies are worthless, which is why it's so easy to make them.

Stai paragonando una sidechain ad una blockchain, vado per logica, quindi presumo di no.
Ma attendi persone più esperte di me a risponderti.
Not yet, but you can see the available paintings here:

Dark Wisp is not a Spark wallet, it's just one of the possibilities.
If you think about it, the seaside is lovely when there are no people, the mountains are lovely when there are no people, eating out is lovely when there are no people, visiting a museum is lovely when there are no people – everything is lovely when there are no people.
Except for social media.

There’s no point in acting all tough and principled – ‘ONLY NOSTR! ONLY NOSTR!’.
In the end, your involvement all comes down to whichever social network gives you the biggest dopamine rush.

On Dark Wisp, you can send Monero ZAPs directly to notes – provided, of course, that the person has set Monero as their payment target.
There are those who can afford not to use social media, not to own a mobile phone, not to skimp on travel, and not to accept Monero.
I can’t.
Respect for sticking to one chain. 🫂🎨
Meanwhile I'm out here accepting anything that pays for canvases and oil paint: Bitcoin, sats, appreciation... even good vibes and likes convert poorly but I'll take them 😂
Pura vida to you too! 🤙
Nostrich.org has one of the best systems for translating notes.
Other Nostr clients should follow suit.
I’ve received my electricity bill.
I reckon they’ve even charged me for sunlight, the eternal kind and the light at the end of the tunnel.
You're amazing! You're one of the very few people who still keeps me on Nostr. Keep it up!
It’s been almost two months today that it’s due to cool down tomorrow.
Lately, I’ve been feeling a lot of noise here.
Opinions, arguments, disappointments, tired people.
And yet, I keep thinking there’s something deeply positive in the fact that, every day, someone here is still building something.
An idea.
A project.
A friendship.
A piece of art.
A small thing done well.
Maybe it doesn’t make much noise.
But it exists.
And sometimes, that’s all it takes to remember that not everything is moving in the wrong direction.

UPDATE: I now accept #Monero in addition to #Bitcoin.
On my website I don't have an automated setup like I have with Bitcoin and Lightning yet, so if you'd like to buy a painting with Monero, just DM me directly.
Thanks for your attention. 🫂🎨

Yes, it's true, almost as much as Italian food.
If there’s someone you want to thank, do it today, and do it quickly, because gratitude is something that won’t wait.
This is me as a car.

On some Nostr clients like Amethyst, Wisp, and others, you can send Monero.
It's a brilliant system, congratulations.
I hope you'll be able to use it in the mobile version on Android or iOS as well.
I’m not a Monero supporter, but I was thinking about this.
With Bitcoin, there are whales.
With Monero, they’re all whales and nobody is.
Monerans are very generous.
Privacy makes people kind.
Hmm, that would be a little complicated for me—I wouldn't understand a word of it... I'll pass ;)
