Hello @BlokchainB and @Doung,

I wanted to share an update on the project. There is already a first visible version and I’d really appreciate hearing your thoughts:

https://www.satoshidashboard.com

There is still a lot left to develop, but I think it’s a good starting point. It would help me a lot if you could take a look and share any feedback whether it’s potential bugs, improvements, or any ideas that come to mind.

I also think it could be interesting to consider adding new sections beyond the ones originally proposed in BTC Frame. In the image I attached, those are the base modules I started from, and so far I’ve replicated 13 out of 30.

You can also check the repository here if you want to explore the code:

I’m doing this out of passion. BTC Frame was a very useful tool, and its disappearance is a real loss; many people used it daily.

So since yesterday I started working on a free and open-source version. There will be no charges and no intention to make a business out of it; at most, I might add an optional donation button. The tool will be completely free.

P.S.: I’m adding a functional preview of the first window. I’m currently on window 10 — 20 more to go.

It was a great app. Hopefully they are just in the process of updating it.

Although if @BlokchainB is right and the project has actually been discontinued, I might consider building my own version of it. The idea behind it is really good.

Do you think that would be worth pursuing, or not?

Sure, I fully understand the point of view you’re presenting, and I partly agree with you that Bitcoin, at least among people with little market experience, currently tends to behave as a reflexive asset. However, I don’t believe that introducing elasticity into the currency is the right solution, because we would be repeating the same mistakes of the past and the present related to manipulating the amount of supply in the market.

In that sense, to reach an equilibrium point, the only viable solution I see is liquidity. The more liquidity a market has, the harder it is to manipulate and the less volatile it becomes. A clear example is gold over the last decade. If we start from that example, we can get a good idea: even though gold’s supply is elastic and influenced by supply and demand, in general it has maintained a certain level of stability except in recent years, when the market surged due to global political and economic tensions.

If we apply the level of liquidity that gold has to a supply capped at 21 million, the result would be a stable market that grows at a controlled rate of appreciation over time. Of course, reaching that equilibrium point may take some time.

I have a POS I could recommend, but I’m not here to advertise anything haha. I saw your profile and came across this post I like the way you think: a bit radical and toxic, but fair. Do you think you could take a deeper look at my product, test it, and critique it to suggest improvements, either on the Bitcoin side or anything else?

You can send me your critique or suggestions for improvement here: ikhunsa@proton.me
I’d really appreciate it, especially coming from someone who’s a maximalist.

I’m attaching the links below. They’re still in draft form, as I’m waiting to publish them on some foundation websites.

Thank you for reading and for the direct feedback.

Anything related to GPT was used solely for translation purposes and because I thought it might be a good idea to slightly summarize the content; that’s why I’ll share the full version in both Spanish and English.

In this post, I’m not trying to take sides or say what is good or bad, since each of us is free to choose. Starting from that premise, the post aims to provoke reflection in the reader through the questions I raise perhaps to encourage businesses not to remain passive or to be afraid of change, especially if they already believe in Bitcoin.

The post is not intended to sell anything. It’s true that I make a small nod to my own work, and including it may give the impression that I’m unfocused or that I don’t know my audience. I don’t claim to know everything no one holds the absolute truth so I prefer to briefly explain what ZatoBox is.

ZatoBox is, first and foremost, an inventory management and administration platform, with additional modules that make business operations easier. As a believer in Bitcoin, I try to be proactive in this cause while, at the same time, opening market space with a real solution for merchants. That’s why I talk about Bitcoin and its potential, but always from an initial sales approach focused on my audience not from Bitcoin itself, but from a business solution for inventory management for small businesses, and only later introducing BTC.

On the technical side, we are not custodians of funds, nor do we charge transaction fees. We simply provide the connection to Bitcoin. This could be considered, in a way, a third party ideally, the best option is to operate with one’s own nodes. However, since we are just getting started and are a very small team, our short-term vision is for ZatoBox to be completely self-hosted, so that it does not depend on us, either technologically or in terms of inventory management, additional modules, or Bitcoin nodes.

I invite you to check out our GitHub repository, as it is open source and built with the community in mind.

If you were referring to the idea of Merchants as P2P nodes, that was a concept that emerged while I was writing the post. It probably needs to be explored in much more detail, but I liked the idea and encourage you to share your thoughts on how it could be made less dependent on third parties.

Thank you so much, @363cbb2392! We’ve just sent the login credentials to your email.

Thanks for the support, @Scoresby! Could you help us by taking a look at the app to see how we can improve it?

Hi @hynek great post really clear and constructive on UX/UI. Would you mind taking a look at my project, ZatoBox (https://zatobox.io), and sharing your feedback? If it works for you, we could schedule a short 10–15 min call to discuss ideas. Would this week be okay for you?

Thank you very much for including us on the list. We’re working on the application day by day, and if you’d like to know more about the project, I’d be more than happy to help.

It’s a really good app by WOS, although in my opinion it feels a bit centralized. As a representative of ZatoBox, we’re working on making our application as self-custodial as possible for those who want to accept Bitcoin. At the moment, we’re still in the development process, and Bitcoin support will be included soon.

In the meantime, the app is functional through its website: https://zatobox.io/

You’re absolutely right about the spam issue and Bitcoin adoption — we can’t afford to be apathetic about it.
However, I believe the situation is more complex than what’s described in the post. It’s not just a matter of choosing between saving or spending; part of the problem lies in the lack of infrastructure.

What do I mean by that? As a bitcoiner, to spend or use your money, you often have to jump through countless hoops or rely on third-party companies that convert your sats into fiat for the business where you’re making a purchase. And it’s rare to find stores that accept Bitcoin directly.

I believe that if we empower more businesses and give them easy, ready-to-use tools, this general apathy would gradually turn into clearer and more conscious decision-making in the medium term.

That’s why I decided to move forward with my idea, ZatoBox #1064780 a system designed to hand everything to businesses on a silver platter, so they can be part of this revolution that’s growing every day.
