I tried to think of a few but couldn't. They all use Monero because using lightning privately is a rube Goldberg machine

  4. Bought some seedplates for my self custody multisig IRA
  5. 3-month trial of obscura VPN

In my mind you can't be both. So I'd go with agnosticism. I took my family to church yesterday...

No, but I'm also not convinced he doesn't exist. Agnostic.

Hell yeah preach. I've starting pissing them off by saying "holding isn't using"
There's actually a technical argument to support that statement IMO, since Bitcoin doesn't have censorship resistance without a healthy fee market.

I mean, mempool was empty before ordinals, it just seems like ordinals dried up and we're back where we were 2 years ago anyway.
Bitcoin isn't a payments network, that has moved to stablecoins. Bleak.

Good post & correct - those are not proper KYC free methods.

Go to local bitcoin meetup for cash p2p, don't use RoboSats for that.

Yeah and 1sat/vB blocks that ultimately are not censorship resistant.
