I wondered why there are so many people joining Anagram who have not used n_ostr before.
The Anagram Youtube video has 7.3k views, that's organic Youtube growth, rather than people from bitcoin-x/n_ostr echochamber (where the video post has 100ish likes). A wave of new users 🙌

I've been saying for a decade, the supply chain attack is hww biggest threat, which is why we bowser.
Good TRNG and obfuscated supply chain, far outweighs fancy shmancy secure elements (keep your hww safe, as you would a paper wallet).
Added the ESP32-2432S028R / E32R28T (resistive touch) to #bitcoin Bowser Wallet (<$10 and comes with a little case!). Thats 4 generic microcontrollers NO one will know you will turn into a hww.
With the webinstaller flashing is so incredibly easy 🧡 lnbits.github.io/hardware-wa…

Today is one of those days where it is especially frustrating that our attempt at claiming many of the registered seedsigner-similar URLs via ICANN’s URS process failed. At the time I was advised that our chances at winning if we escalated to the UDRP process were good, however it was prohibitively expensive to pursue the matter further. If you are a community member with ample financial resources and would be willing to fund this in the interests of the project, please get in touch.

Please watch the latest promotion of the planned war with Russia released by NATO itself.
This video is very well crafted propaganda.
However you will notice that there is absolutely no diversity in the video. All the people featured are white Europeans. NATO are showing you exactly who they are targeting and expecting to fight and die in their World War III against Russia.
Are you convinced by it and will you be volunteering for service on the Donbas front ?

Fundraising update for the @tabconf @SeedSigner workshop:
Had to pay $328.60 in tariffs once the shipment hit the US.
Updated funding percentage is now: 49%
So I'm currently in the hole about 1mil sats.
Help me build more @SeedSigner builders!
I'll be running a workshop at @tabconf to onboard devs to the work-in-progress MicroPython port.
The key: they will go home with a dev board.
I'm spending my own $$ on these boards. Help pls.

I have never bought a government bond or a gilt in my life. Why? I consider them immoral.
Lending the government money is like lending vodka to an alcoholic.
Don’t enable them!
The private sector can do almost anything a government does better - to a higher standard for a lower price.
The sooner we get government out of our lives, the quicker things get better.
So don't lend them any money.

The UK borrowed another £1.8bn last month, taking the national debt to within a whisker to £2.985tn in July. I thought it would pass £3 trillion this summer. That will now happen in the autumn.
The main drivers of more borrowing were welfare and pension payments, which rose 7.2% (£2bn) to £30bn last month.
The cost of debt service, at £7.7bn in July, was almost 10% higher than a year ago.
Four months into the 2026/27 financial year and the government has borrowed almost £57bn, a bit more than the official forecast YTD.
July’s figures yet another reason to brace for hefty tax rises in the October Budget.
