i don't think you are going to find a node in the phone wallet that supports sub-wallets. That seems like you are gonna need a server or device that is online all the time.

Running an albyhub is quite user-friendly (you can do so on a start9 in a few clicks or run it on a lap top you devote to being on all the time with one copy paste script into a linux terminal) and would provide you the ability to create sub wallets for friends / family. they could then load that sub wallet into the goalby or zeus apps quite easily. Albyhub is nice too because you can run it without a btc core node as the backend, so very light weight.

If you wanna know more let me know but that might be too much / not remotely what you were hoping for.

There are a whole bunch of Block things that are coming out this month:

new trial tagline: "24/7 bitcoin meetup on a website"

the goal is something that makes immediate sense to outsiders even if it's insufficient for us insiders.

Oof @grayruby @Undisciplined @Aardvark

I really like the 24/7 Bitcoin meetup on a website.

It sounds kinda simple and charming to me. It says what it is.

But if you think website makes it too long, what about

The 24/7 Bitcoin meetup with zaps

what's wrong with "The Frontpage of Bitcoin"?

I like "1000 songs in your pocket" because it's short, intriguing, and tangible.

I was trying to think of how to word a pitch that made SN sound like an all-night diner or all-you-can-eat buffet but I didn't come up with anything.

I don't like the "on a website" part because I don't think people prefer that (or want to prefer that) to IRL, so you're planting a dig in your own pitch. Just "24/7 bitcoin meetup" is better.

Sounds like something to talk about. But be prared to listen.

You're free to define the use case as you like, of course, but if there were a safe "preserve my current buying power" option that I had high faith in, I'd re-allocate a bunch of my btc stack to it. Hoping for "btc to $1m" loads on a different principal component than "don't let my money get inflated away" in my own mind, and I don't think I'm alone there.

Put another way: I think the overwhelming amount of ETF money that flowed into btc was not stemming from the "preserve my savings from the melting ice cube" mindspace. I don't have a lot of friends who have actually bought btc, but 0% of those that have are worried about monetary debasement. It's probably relevant that these are just normal people I know, not cryptotwitter doomscrollers.

Disagree again. The crucial point that I want to make is that you can't condition on bitcoiners. Well, you can, but that's a different question. The question I want to ask is:

A: m(use btc | need cross-border payments)

not

B: m(use btc for cross-border payments | bitcoiner ^ need cross-border payments)

Where m is the magnitude of value realized by that use case.

I believe the distinction to be crucial to get at the market-sizing question: if you need something that bitcoin ostensibly provides, and you're not using bitcoin for it, that's telling; and if there isn't much absolute need (e.g., small m) for the thing itself (e.g., cross-border payments, micropayments) then that's also telling; and (a subset of the previous) if you need the thing, and are using btc for it, but you are of little economic consequence because you're a poor refugee, than that's also suggestive of btc's future purchasing-power prospects.

Here are the three biggest imo

"1000 autists in your pocket"

Yeah, I agree with you. I posted in another comment on this thread that I think a realistic outcome for bitcoin is that it becomes the Tor of money. Still around and being used, but never achieving mainstream adoption

I feel like the dilemma he points out has already existed for a long time, just in different forms.

Replace "writing for AI" with "writing for a commercial audience" and you get the same dilemmas...

You’re calling my voice mid-annoying when you sound like a stoned 12yo that just drank a gallon of milk.

Oof:

Whole thread is interesting.

omg my voice is annoying?!?

I think you may have connected to the bootstrap node and not your own pub, just realized from the icon in your sources screenshot

This would happen if hitting continue when first opening it rather than add connection, that would explain the dashboard not working since it's our node the wallet is pointed to

And by unique you mean just like all the other hysterics in the knots camp?
