Shit I voted wrong , I thought you said to a compliant one . I change my vote to "Yes, at a discount."

You can't pay for premium with LN , that should change too.

Side chain ?

What is Liquid . I've only ever heard this mentioned when browsing the Blockstream webstite where they mention that there product "Blockstream Jade" can do something or other with "Liquid" . Hit me with the elevator pitch . . .

Totally agree with you , it was all hat and no cattle .

Shit , I messed up here as well , I have a a lightning close that I accidentally put through at 1sat/vb , and then I used cpfp to bump up the fee . It's not been confirmed for like a week now , but I assumed that it was because of all of this stupid high fees stuff going on . How would you know if it is stuck ? Also , what do you mean "most mempools" , I thought that there is only one mempool?

Yeah man, Robosats is a great way to buy some lightning non-kyc , no exchange. There is a little bit more work involved in using it . You need a little bit of lightning to get started making trades, but you are on stacker news , so you might already have some lightning. You can make your own trade, pick the currency, select the payment method for that currency, choose the premium and a whole lot of other options . Then you lock a little bit of lightning as "collateral" (it's to stop people making bullshit trades, you lose the collateral if you cancel the trade for no reason, but not if the trade times-out) . If somebody likes your trade, they lock the lightning into esgrow (meaning Robosats has it in the middle, don't ask me how it works , but I'm sure it's all very technical) , and then when it is confirmed that you have paid the fiat to the person , or whatever the payment method may be , then the lightning is unlocked for you , and the trade is complete. All of this can be done through , tor , and everything is encrypted from start to finish , and the best thing is : NO KYC , you never give your information away to anyone along the way. It's cyberpunk af man , go check it out .

Bisq is pretty much the same , but with a higher learning curve, on-chain only the last time that I looked at it .

I hadn't considered your local currency , apologies. Have you checked for options like Robosats and Bisq ?

Thanks for reply. Eaglesats , we salute you 🫡

Hey I was checking out your service earlier today , and i noticed something that might be of interest to you , but maybe not , I don't know : When you have selected all of the options that you want , like how many sats, and how many people you want to send the message to, and you go to pay the invoice , you can only pay by scanning the qr code . If you are on your phone , you can't do that , so it is kind of forcing you to only use the service on your laptop . Maybe that was the intention , I don't know , just something that I have noticed. Also I was wondering , if you select only a portion of the possible recipients, lets just say you only select 100 people , how do you decide which 100 people that the message reaches , is it done randomly ?

Somebody pointed out to me that Milei is listed on the World Economic Forumns website, take that for what it's worth.

There's various rounds of it I belive .

Bro , ordinals are a shitcoin.

I had no idea that Jim Carrey was in prison, it was nice of Tupac to write to him like that .

What a disgrace that actual decent projects can't get funding , but this type of Fiat fuckery can .

Says a lot. I really had a low opinion of Bitcoin magazine up until they gave the FED the finger with the whole "FEDNOW" bullshit , that's pretty rad , but to be honest their actions to date have been woeful . They lost a lot of thier Bitcoin in the Three Arrows Capital thing , like fools , and tthey are constantly shilling for shitty pump and dump NFT nonsense like those Taproot Wizard clowns.

This clears things up nicely , thanks for that . I had made my mind up about Mutiny when i seen that they were just annoucing casually that they were just going to block certain TX's , not fucking cool man, don't tread on me man .

Sorry , actually , my bad , I read that wrong , your friends are keeping their corn on Binance , not you . Lucky they have somebody who is in the know to make sure that they don't continue with that type of thing . Personally , I think that you are better off not buying from exchanges at all , because of the KYC implecations of having your identity tied to all of your UTXO's for now until the end of time , but if it is the only way that you can get your hands on some Bitcoin , then buy it and move it to keys that you own iMMEDIATELY after buying it .

Man , what a joke . There is no easy way around this , you either invest the time into understanding the fundementals of why Bitcoin is the hardest money on Earth , or you go the degen route , spend all your money on a ha ha meme coin and then learn it the hard way .

Brother , I feel the hurt coming off the page , but you know what , it was an expensive lesson , but you learnt from it , and that's what counts in the end .
