🎙️Quote of the Day🎙️

lopp (npub17u5…t4tp) “For the past decade, folks called me crazy for supporting Bitcoin because ‘inflation isn't a problem.’ For the past decade, folks called me crazy to suggest being your own bank because ‘banks are safe.’
It's bittersweet to be proven sane.”

🚨Headline Nostr News🚨

TheBitcoinConf (npub1t8a…56yu) California regulators close 🏦Silicon Valley Bank🏦 $SIVB in the "largest bank failure since the Great Recession," putting nearly $175 billion in customer deposits, including money from some of the biggest names in the technology world, under the control of the FDIC. Customers with deposits totaling more than $250,000,would be given certificates for their uninsured funds, meaning they would be among the first in line to be paid back — though potentially only partially.
preston (npub1s5y…6q7z) provides his commentary on the "too big to fail" banks.
We can all understand the enormous amount of pressure that jb55 (npub1xts…kk5s) feels in getting Damus off the ground. Though we can agree this is not sustainable as the projects scale, what has made Damus (and nostr) special is the ability to mention a dev on a bug or feature request and have them respond. Let’s face it, no one here is going to get a response from Elon (sorry even you jack (npub1sg6…f63m) ).
But the community showed its true colors by zapping Will with over 16m ⚡️sats. This is true value for value, and the ⚡️sats are the 📡signal.
This reminds though that we are all human, we all need help, and we all need to take breaks. We Bitcoiners and nostr early adopters are pioneers, we are on the Oregon Trail of our generation. The trail is not certain, it’s not easy, but we will find our way west to a better life. Carry on JB55 and the rest of the devs, we got your back.

quoting nevent1q…gv4fSo Nostr still being a baby already outperforms a more settled v4v podcasting "industry". Anyways I'm sure Nostr will help v4v podcasting reach next levels in no time.

The: Daniel ⚡️ (npub1aeh…4nwx) gives us a stark reminder to be careful when choosing a bitcoin wallet. Services that appear to be bitcoin native, like Bitcoin Libre, are actually running an EOS fork. 🚨🚨
quoting nevent1q…9vmjJust a reminder that not everything that claims to be bitcoin is actually bitcoin. Wrapped bitcoin on another blockchain is a shitcoin. There are wallets such as this one called "Bitcoin Libre" that have fooled users into thinking they're using bitcoin, but it only takes a minute of research to see that it's actually running on a fork of EOS. If you deposit your bitcoin there, you have no way of knowing if you'll ever be able to withdraw it. Please stick to bitcoin-only wallets that you can verify.

quoting nevent1q…w75ztwo things brutally resonated with the people I purple-pilled tonight:
1) access your content from multiple clients (I showed using damus and then snort)
2) zaps -- Some of them thought LN was not fully functional yet. I showed them https://zaplife.lol; jaws dropped.
Seeing zaps fly by was like crack.

quoting nevent1q…5pwqLearn more about Costa Rica before #nostrica
Today I present you our beloved perfect fruit "El banano".
In 2015, Costa Rica grew and supplied one out of every 10 bananas consumed globally and ranks as the world’s third largest banana exporter.
The banana industry is vital to the rural Costa Rican community and accounts for over 100,000 jobs. With so much at stake, it’s no wonder that scientists are constantly looking for ways to help farmers protect their bananas to keep up with global demand and sustain their livelihoods.
In the picture above the colorful and delicious banana, below is the commercial one.
