I like his work, would gladly send him some sats should he post an lnurl or something.

I can tell you about a couple of countries in south America, DM if you like.

Controlled demolition of a whole country

Sill rockin at 60 🤘

You could link to part 1 here and on substance.

Wrong

Are you posting this in relation to the recent airplane accident?

This is interesting and I believe in a way ideal (or idealistic?) but I still can't reconcile the fact that creators, writers and musician need some way to pay the bills and their way of life. Are they supposed to depend on the good faith of consumers to give them value?

That said I still haven't heard the podcast and I believe there's still a lot to dig down this rabbit hole. I know some musicians and writers and I can see the retribution model we're using for those professions is broken.

Thanks for that reward, please let us know what you did in the end and what would be your advice for that question in the future.

The question was about ecash and its privacy features.

I don't know much about darknets because I believe as you said it's mostly for drugs and other stuff that I'm not into. But these edge cases do bring some important questions about privacy characteristics that money should have. There is no real freedom without privacy and a good form of money should allow individuals to transact without revealing what they do.

I don't do drugs but I am ready to defend your right to get high if you want to, it's your life it's your choice. Can ecash accomplish that?

When you get a Zeus or Blixt wallet you already have a node, you don't actually need to open a public one unless you want to act as a routing node. By opening channels to an LSP you can use their wrapped invoices and have an extra layer of privacy and keep your sats in self custody without opening another node.

That's my 2 sats

It's interesting for who this guy is, but I agree with your point.

Silver lining: NGU

The answers to these type of questions, and I have lots of them, often lies within ourselves. You wonder why people do that, but most surely you engage in some sort of activity that others consider retarded, some quite common are drinking alcohol, over eating, spending money on useless gadgets...

I guess we all need some degree of retardness in our lives in order to not go nuts.
