Huge shout out to the c= team, I wish I could be there celebrating with you. 10% ROI on Block's bitcoin and building the first Square lightning integration are huge accomplishments and hard won. Both unprecedented, I am so proud of all of you. We put together an amazing team and did exactly what we set out to do. I am so happy some of this work finally gets to see the light of day. Teams that start from nothing and put out the results you did are rare and extremely valuable. Most startups only dream of hitting $1M ARR. This is the work that makes the dream happen. Considering what it took, you guys are miracle workers. It's my sincere hope that work like this can shine through more often at Block unimpeded. image
Congrats to the team that built this. A huge accomplishment. This is how it starts. View quoted note β†’

People do not want to β€œbe on chain” they just want to do normal things. There is no UX path that starts with β€œwell first they will learn crypto with stablecoins and then…” The first part of that statement is already garbage.

The death of Nostr Wallet Auth is a tragedy, can we bring it back? Mutiny had taken NWC and made it the best way to do "pull" style bitcoin payments for subscriptions and other things. Reading through the NIP proposal where @Carman tried to share this nice bit of UX with the nostr community was a trip down open source spec hell and it has ended in it withering on the vine. Their blog post about it here Everyone expects pull when they pay. An entire industry of SaaS apps is built on users putting in their cc info and forgetting about it for months. We need the same if bitcoin payments will be a thing.
