This is great! 👏👏👏

designing some stickers for an animal welfare group that's setting up temporary shelters for cats on the street; they're looking to accept donations via Lightning for the kits, so I'm doing my best to help them out :)

That's cool! To my mind, Masanobu Fukuoka is a legend. I see him as the agricultural equivalent of Satoshi Nakamoto, one gave us natural money, and the other natural farming :)

@maml this is what matters, a musician creating, a fan supporting them directly and sats moving without asking permission :) the platform doesn’t need to own the creator or the relationship, it just needs to build the rails and get out of the way, real people creating real things and supporting each other directly, just Bitcoin + nostr in action, keep building! ⚡🤠

Yesterday I met someone who called himself a “crypto lover” (if I had 1 sat for every shitcoiner I’ve met, I’d already own a spaceship to send them back to their planet) 5 min later? metaverses, avatars, virtual lands and jpgs pretending to be the future... I’m tired of this circus, meanwhile, SN is quietly building something real, people sharing ideas, building communities and sending real sats, no fake lands, no shitcoins, just Bitcoin, Lightning and humans using money, happy to be on the right side

this is exactly the point, you can optimize channels, fees and algorithms forever, but a Lightning node without real human activity is just infrastructure waiting for a purpose, the strongest liquidity comes from people actually using the network, liquidity follows life, not the other way around

You’re probably right, the idea is not really about governments giving land away, but about how we ended up in a world where almost every piece of land already belongs to someone, making it difficult for people to build a direct relationship with it. When I wrote the post, I was thinking more about homesteading: allowing people to turn unused land into something productive through work, responsibility and care, i’s interesting that for much of history this was a normal way of creating communities and wealth, while today in many places it has almost disappeared. I'll definitely look more into modern homesteading, it connects deeply with ideas like self-sufficiency, permaculture and personal sovereignty. Thanks for commenting ;)

Bitcoin is the separation of money from permission: a decentralized monetary network that allows anyone, anywhere, to own and transfer value without asking anyone for approval, because the rules belong to everyone and the power belongs to no one ;)

does anyone have any idea how I can make an image span the full width here using markdown?
