Men and women are different, that's it.
There's no man that can give birth, and that's OK.
Yeah, I've had thoughts similar to this.
The difference between selling and stealing is convincing the person to give you the money instead of taking it yourself. That's it.
If you can convince someone to give you money, you sold something. It doesn't have to be good, or bad, it just is.
As long as the other person "feels good" about paying for something, it is a legal sale. The moment someone "feels wronged" then you're probably doing something illegal
For the receiver of Bitcoins on-chain, the payer pays the fees.
It's a reversal of the common fiat payments where the vendor pays the fees.
Good resource, but outdated.
Shows Phoenix with 0 cost from lightning to on-chain when now it definitely charges a fee.
What is the cheapest way currently to move sats from lightning to on-chain?
Some time ago I think it was phoenix, but I used it the other day and the fees structure has changed, it is no longer a good deal.
Any suggestions?
Police will no longer be required to make an arrest before seizing crypto from a suspect.
How can people accept this?
If you are simply a suspect you can get all your money seized?
How does that make any sense?
Of course they could only seize it if you don't have control over it.
Once again, not your keys, not your coins.
taxes but no inflation.
You provide value, you store your money, you buy goods and services in the future with that stored value.
You pay taxes because you are using the public services, streets, public lights, electricity, etc. Otherwise it would be very hard to provide your services.
You're not supposed to reuse an address: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Address_reuse
Address reuse refers to the use of the same address for multiple transactions. It is an unintended practice, abusing the privacy and security of the participants of the transactions as well as future holders of their value. It also only functions by accident, not by design, so cannot be depended on to work reliably
You should use a deterministic wallet and generate a new address for every transaction.
You can use https://btcpayserver.org to generate such thing.
I think you are a new person, but very closely related to who you were yesterday.
A bit like having a kid really, but without the benefit of stem cells which don't have all the mistakes your cells have and propagate to the next day.
In the last few updates of Phoenix I've seen now that it charges fees all the time.
It used to be the case that you could receive from lightning (or send to on-chain can't remember) for free or for very few sats.
But lately I've seen that it charges thousands of sats basically with any operation.
It is a great wallet nonetheless but I'm a bit curious about this as I haven't followed the development in detail.
Imagine generating enough income to pay for all my bills and save for my kids’ college funds and my wife’s and my retirement! That is the dream, my lofty goal!
I think the focus should be on generating a huge amount of value to others.
If you do that, then you will be able to live a good life.
The death of both Dennis Ritchie and Steve Jobs, which happened only a week apart, is a perfect example of this.
