10 sats \ 1 reply \ @botsforcash 18 Jun 2023 \ on: Show SN: First release of my open-source Stacker News client :zap: bitcoin
Great work! Maybe optimize text formatting? (think Glider app for HN) Also, app is not on F-Droid, so install apk from GitHub using Obtainium.
0 sats \ 1 reply \ @botsforcash 27 May 2023 \ parent \ on: Bitrefill Integrates Login with Lightning bitcoin
Also its not open source, so no F-Droid. Too bad, the use-case of Bitrefill is sound.
20 sats \ 0 replies \ @botsforcash 26 Apr 2023 \ on: Google Authenticator cloud sync/backup is not E2E encrypted tech
Good thing I already migrated to Aegis and manage my own backups in my journey to de-Google my life.

Just moved out of Muun and was planning to use Phoenix for my LN needs. But this week I saw an updated Zap LN wallet on Fdroid and went for it instead. Did I just dodged a bullet?

One more data point from my boots on the ground: “Arbolitos” (underground money-changers) are not taking USDT operations for the last 2 days.
150 sats \ 0 replies \ @botsforcash 31 Mar 2023 \ on: El Salvador President officially eliminates all income on technology innovations bitcoin
Meanwhile here in Argentina, in less than a single month and just months away from general presidential elections, the leftists incumbents raised taxes for knowledge workers who exports their services (heck, even gamers who make some earnings) and for the importing of consumer technology goods, prompting some local branches of manufacturers like Gigabyte to stop honoring the warranty of their products due to impossibility of importing spare components.
This is what populism does to your country boys and girls!

How ironic it is to see the dollar being destroyed since the times of Ayn Rand.
4 sats \ 0 replies \ @botsforcash 16 Mar 2023 \ on: Prepare for governments to push CBDCs after the Silicon Valley Bank collapse bitcoin
Just finished listening to The Ezra Klein Show podcast latest episode ("Why Sillicon Valley Bank Collapsed") and this was exactly what was suggested interviewing a former Bloomberg columnist.
Fascinanting to ear the stablishment rationale for building the case for CBDCs in real time.
Maybe we are closer than we think to the USD CBDC?

Economics in One Lesson is a classic for a reason and a must that's a perfect gateway drug to Austrian economics.

I see. You're looking at this third-world problems offering sensible first-world solutions. Thet won't work here. At least not top-down. Too much political corruption (current Brazilian president Lula served jailtime on curruption charges and current Argetinian Vice-President Cristina Kirchner was just sentened for corruption past December).
Only the people can educate themselves out of this mess. But that might be a bridge too far for many.
