Self-Custody for You and Your AI | Roland Bewick

great episode. light yet serious. topical and deep. favorite guest/episode in a while.

@npub1aeh2zw4el… Encrypting the Spark wallet with an nsec was a great idea. What do you think about backing up the nsec using NIP-06? Am I the only freak that likes this NIP?

Start9 products are objectively really great. Disappointed to see them actively push BIP 110 activation client when it still had consensus critical bugs that would’ve lost users money if a core contributor hadn’t found and disclosed. You can’t claim to be neutral and use your X to actively push a specific client. Offer them all without endorsement and honestly disclose the level of review. In the past the team has bragged about the level of review in the start9 App Store so turning around software the same day it is released on GitHub that has consensus bugs (regardless of the ideology) is a very disappointing. Again awesome tech and awesome work. Learn and grow friends.

two serious matts speak on sovereignty and self-hosted software stacks hypothetically, who would be the strict parent if you were raising a kid? i imagine matt hill had the most stern face throughout this recording

Grrat episode!

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I thought clawstr was a shitcoin before I saw Derek talk about it on nostr. For the record, I am 99.99999999% sure Marti has nothing to do with it. The only reason I am not 100% sure is because I can't prove a negative. :)

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

@egge Current was the only client I know of that uses NIP06, BIP39 words for keys. Are there any others?

Npub cash is awesome 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

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

🤣🤣🤣🤣

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

👍🏻👍🏻💯

🔥🔥🔥 the Stormlight Archive series by Brandon Sanderson is the best modern fantasy series, fight me

Nostr sneak peek ftw, great idea

Probably do either have to go custodial lightning or Cashu for Nostr until we get covenants. Full self sovereign lightning is likely just too hard and niche to reach critical mass on Nostr.

What's the intro/outro song clip from?

Strike bill pay is a game changer. I know," not your keys, not your bitcoin", but if I must use a bank, I would rather use a bitcoin 100% reserve bank.

Set up a test account with Iris. The automatic npub.cash address you mentioned is amazing.

Why do politicians focus on "possible terrorist attacks", but they don't mention the gangs from Chile flying to the US to rob NFL players and that dude from the Matrix?

Thank you. Great episode.

Ross is free! 🫡🫡

Whether people love them or not, super bullish to see tradFI products come to bitcoiners

👍🏻👍🏻

Embrace Christmas

Bitcoin Meetup at Good Day Brewing in Perris, California on April 24th, 2026. Buy a beer, burger, or soda with bitcoin over the lightning network. Meet plebs. Join the mission. https://951plebs.com

Happy birthday!

Great article!

More miniscript please. I am not Rob.

Thanks, especially love hearing more about Liana, Anchorwatch, and miniscript

Awesome episode!

I used Shakespeare to vibe code my new meetup website. It has NIIP-52 calendar events, links, and a NIP-23 blog. I am considering adding a NIP-15 merch store/support page, but haven't figured out all the details yet. I'll share it next week under a new npub. I love the Bitcoin meetup guide on GitHub. It's giving me a lot of Great ideas.

This was fucking great guys. I started using the espy.you website to find hexadecimal color codes for my next vibe code project. Great tool. 🔥

🤙

Great show Marty. Free Samourai!

I make greeting cards for my kids that pay them Bitcoin with lightning and Cashu. It gives a visual, tangible representation of electronic cash. That's why I think it's a useful tool for teaching smaller children how to earn, spend, and save sats. Because you can't tell a five year old to read the White Paper. "Put away The Cat In The Hat Tommy! It's time to have fun staying rich with BIP39!" So I think Cashu is a great first step. "Thank you you for putting away you're toys Tommy. Here is a piece of paper redeemable for 1,000 sats." Show , don't tell.

👍

HAPPY Uptober! Anyone not enjoying it is a lame bear

👍🏻🫡 Thanks for the Fed acknowledgment, classy move
