TRUMP, INFLATION, MSTR & BITCOIN w/ Lyn Alden

⚡️⚡️FINANCE BRO PODCASTS ARE THE REAL SHITCOIN!!!!

🤣🤣🤣🤣

If it doesn’t have in app unilateral exit, it’s custodial, period. This is not negotiable. If something is not implemented then it simply doesn’t exist for the average user. 99.99999% of Spark users don’t even know a CLI app exists let alone how to use it. Without local caching and unilateral exit actually implemented in the app and having hard dependency on operator cooperation to exit then it’s custodial. Listen I actually like Spark and think it makes reasonable tradeoffs in a world without covenants, but as it stands it’s a custodial product. Happy to revise this once we see an actual implementation of unilateral exit and more operators and LSPs, but it’s just the honest reality today.

2026 prediction: in 2025 Mike Brock was only teetering. 2026 will bring his real crash out.

Quantum is a fake and gay VC scam until it can factor a random three digit integer. Until then my young kids are smarter.

Bitcoin is built on principles and integrity. Well said Ian.

Continued love from the Seattle crew

Great rip!! 🫡👍🏻

Mid and upper models of Flair Espresso maker are plastic free in the brewing areas and around $400-500. Tradeoff is it’s manual but that is just more proof of work. Pair with a metal hot water kettle and you’re all set.

Great vibes

You definitely can verify your seed words on a Ledger. You download a specific app from Ledger Live and that allows you to verify your backup.

Ordered more soap, love it. Enjoy having both cedarwood soap and deodorant.

What is the use case for Arca versus an Umbrel? Umbrel for picture and non sensitive storage and Arca can save highly sensitive items like passwords or seeds?

I worked for a year at a PE roll up of wood related business (wood pellets, chips, sawmills) AMA.

easy for Bitkey to not show seeds by default, but allow you to access them behind a scary advanced user don’t give this to anyone for any reason warning. Just refusing to provide any seed access at all is disappointing.
