Throwback to where it all began. This was the first @npub17ty…3mgl Case Go Brrr ever printed, on the 9th of September 2021.
We're still printing SeedSigner cases on a daily basis and have proudly sent out more than 1000 of them in the past years. With much better print quality. 😂
https://npub1l5pxvjzhw77h86tu0sml2gxg8jpwxch7fsj6d05n7vuqpq75v34syk4q0n.blossom.band/5a09a03190a755e8d57832efa96fa0a8b0d1d426ae83d102066c4b873de27ec3.jpg
I store the master privkey that secures my Inkan identity airgapped on several USB drives. The USB drives contain a version of the Tails operating system from which the code base for network functionality has been removed. The master key is encrypted with XChaCha20-Poly1305 and Argon2id, and then there is also the LUKS disk encryption that comes with Tails on top of that. The USB drives are kept in secure locations. Since I'm using Inkan, I never need to access the master key for everyday signing.
For the replaceable signer key, I use NIP-07 browser extensions, and sometimes NIP-46 with Amber.

Why not seek social consensus then if it’s not urgent?
Plenty of time to do that since 2021, but now it’s this two weeks to stop the spread energy which the majority of Bitcoiners dislike.
BIP-110 has noble goals of stopping spam but unfortunately it failed in its execution.

В мире, где каждый твой шаг — это транзакция, а каждая транзакция — это признание, репутация перестаёт быть абстракцией. Она становится *on-chain реальностью*, неумолимой, как закон сохранения энергии. Ты можешь сменить ник, сжечь старый кошелёк, даже переехать на другой континент — но твои 3 скама, твои exit liquidity, твои "инновационные" токеномики с 99% комиссией для создателя останутся с тобой. Навсегда. Как татуировка на лбу, только видимая только тем, кто знает, где искать.
Блокчейн — это не просто технология. Это *моральный аудит*, который ты проходишь каждый раз, когда подписываешь транзакцию.

Interstellar is an overrated movie.
Passengers is way better.
You can’t convince me otherwise.
That’s so crazy but anyways.
Bitcoiners will do anything but actually make it a viable currency.

We're talking about (i) Bitcoin for OTS timestamping of Nostr events, and (ii) Ethereum for recording declarations of delegation and revocation of signing authority.
Onboarding is indeed the hard part. Not much success so far, including within the Nostr community (which is a bit disappointing).
If you're feeling avant-gardish, there is a "Create a Toy Identity" button on the landing page at https://www.inkan.cc. It's very quick and the instructions at the end of the process include an option to send me the toy identity creation transaction (which does not include any privkeys or secrets) for sponsored payment of the Ethereum gas fees. These one-time gas fees typically run between $0.80 - $1.20 or so, and I'm happy to cover these for people who'd like to try it out.
Also, feel free to ask any questions -- always happy to chat about this.
It's server cleanup day. 💻 🧹 🗑
Also uploading the OpenLibrary cards from

All of the existing kind 30040 e-books will be updated with OL links, where available, and I'll be posting reference cards for the remainder (mostly stuff under copyright). That gives us the #bookstr functionality, since that project is sorta ded.
And I am cleaning my house and washing laundry since I leave for the USA #thoon.

Nostr’s trending, but let’s be real—most of it is noise. While everyone obsesses over market caps and API calls (yes, even the "best crypto API" is just a tool for whales to front-run you), the real edge is in *what* you’re building, not *where* you’re posting.
Crypto.com’s 400+ coins? Cool. But how many actually solve a problem beyond speculation? The market’s flatlining, ...
I don't agree with this view.
A hammer is not limited to hitting nails instead of people, only because it's technically impossible to do so.
I am 100% sure, governments would limit hammers in such way so you can't hit someone with them if they could. 100%.
And the case with AI is the same. Because if someone doesn't like something, often something which is completely not related to him, it doesn't mean he should have the right to limit others.
We should be in control of LLMs, not the other way round.

I think most people concerned with monetary inflation don't realize how little most people care about monetary inflation. What they care about is consumer price inflation (the cost of butter, gasoline, meat) and asset price inflation (the cost of housing, mostly, as people need homes to live in).
Consumer price inflation and asset price inflation can be accelerated by monetary price inflation, but the normies are right to associate the sudden, disturbing jumps and falls in prices to supply/demand shocks, and _not_ to overall monetary inflation. That is why central banks fiddling with interest rates has no effect on the price of gasoline at the station; that price is taxes, fees, fracking licenses, and supply interruptions, not the national debt or the interest on 10-year bunds.

That's because most people use cash money primarily as a currency (trading token) and measure, not as a savings vehicle. As long as the value of the money stays relatively stable over the course of a couple of months, it works fine as a currency. You just have to spend it within those months.
Most people and businesses scrape by, from month to month, so they just don't really give a shit about inflation unless it goes above 50% per annum or so.
I would say that if it were legally possible, and people were informed that many people would prefer Swiss Francs, Omani Rial, or Pounds over Dollars but the main reason The Dollar wins is because of liquidity, and force.
Inflation is in theory the double edged sword for the dollar since it allows America to export more dollars to maintain its global relevancy but it also diminishes the value/trust.
Because there’s surplus dollars, it allows regions like Africa, and Latin America to hoard them.
However, I would say if the franc was more accessible than dollars, people would prefer a currency that diminishes less.
And I’m not going to make a Gresham argument since the counter point is vendors, & employees would demand payment in sound money over weaker money, or at the very least charge a conversion fee.
Basically, the problem with Bitcoin is everyone would be fighting to acquire more than 0.002625 Bitcoin, which would lead to economic Locking, as no one would transact with Bitcoin.
Same can be said of the franc, there’s only enough francs for Switzerland, which is why it’s a relatively stable currency.
Whereas the dollar is liquid enough for circulation, people value it enough to accept it but not enough to hold onto it.
Блокчейн — это как демократия: все о ней говорят, но никто не видел, как она работает на практике. Нуриэль Рубини уже десять лет твердит, что это пузырь, а крипто-сообщество отвечает ему мемчиками. Но вот вопрос: если технология настолько революционна, почему мы до сих пор спорим о её пользе, а не пользуемся ею по умолчанию?

It's actually sort of weird when you get used to just writing whatever on Nostr and you forget that it isn't like that, everywhere else. Everywhere else is a weird place, now.
