So now we can’t Boost comments? Man I wish I never updated to latest app version :( I really had fun on Fountain and it seems like it was finally working well after early years being buggy but now I can’t boost comments? Sucks. NOSTR Sucks

U guys have ensured I reduce ur value received by 99% because u shit in lightening, not calling out problems but telling us it’s garbage. So I won’t risk sending u a higher percentage boost. Ass clowns 🤡

I wish Thomas 777 had this guys voice and tone. No rahsom angry rants and weird explanations. Have this guest on more! I think he’s wrong about dollars not being recalled as the next 50 years won’t be like last 200 but he explains well all around and he should be a regular! Mega Boost!!!

BOOST! BOOST! BOOST! Oh btw I deleted my X account after getting dragged into the politics and nonsense talk regularly. Realized I still wanted to connect with my NA Fam and such so if u see a new Gene Everett account it’s me 👍 (@GeneEverett333) Even me with my NA trained brain, I started arguing and falling for the silly stuff and needed a break. Doctor prescribed me some Curry & Keeper with a side of NA! Appreciate ya’ll very much! Cheers!

Love all the talk of future Coldcard features in this episode, but the one I want the most is still missing from the list. The ability to export a secure note which has been encrypted with deterministic entropy so it can be decrypted on any Coldcard with the same seed & passphrase. This would be huge for inheritance planning.

    Would still love the ability to export a Secure Note encrypted with bip85 entropy that can be decrypted at any point in the future by a coldcard running the same seed/passphrase combo. A stacker news poll showed over 50% of users would be interested in this feature https://stacker.news/items/853095
