Eine meiner ersten 2 Bitcoin-#Lightning-Zahlungen in Lugano Sommer 2025😎 Nicht nur darüber reden, sondern einfach mal machen. Bezahlt mit @WalletOfSatoshi. Vielleicht ist genau das der einfachste Weg, Freunden #Bitcoin näherzubringen: einmal selbst zeigen, wie einfach eine Zahlung funktionieren kann. Dazu passt der Beitrag von @wavespace_ perfekt👇(siehe hier weiter unten)
PROBLEM #1: Most of your friends still see Bitcoin as a speculative investment that has no utility. PROBLEM #2: Even if you wanted to show them Bitcoin being utilized for payments, they will quickly point out that there’s maybe only one or two odd shops around accepting it. SOLUTION: 1. Bring your friends to your favourite local pub, get them a round of beers and tell them you just paid with Bitcoin. 2. When they won’t believe - show them your Lightning wallet with a recent transaction showing the pub’s name. 3. When they say “the pub doesn’t take Bitcoin”, show them your wavecard and tell them that you can still pay in Bitcoin, even if the merchant takes Euros. We call it “The beer moment”

Being paid in Euros may be a condition of your job. Wanting to save in Bitcoin is a separate choice. Your employer's payroll system does not have to decide your whole relationship with money.

🟠 CUSTODIAL NIGHTMARES #3 November 2014. An employee at a Bitcoin exchange gets a Skype message. The senders have already studied the company and its staff. This is a story about personalised phishing, a Word document and almost 19,000 stolen Bitcoin. The Bitstamp hack. 🧵

Bitstamp survived. That is what makes the story useful. Competent people. Cold storage. Security procedures. Reserves deep enough to make customers whole. And one person still opened the wrong file. Humans remain humans.

Self-custody changes who carries the risk. When your Bitcoin sits on an exchange, you are trusting its employees, systems, policies and security every hour of every day. Trust yourself instead. Own your Bitcoin.

There’s no “memecoin” season coming, anon. It’s called “protect your capital” season.

In 2023 Lichtenstein admitted the hack and pleaded guilty to money laundering conspiracy. Five years, handed down in November 2024. He left prison after about 14 months, in early 2026. Morgan got 18 months and served around nine.

Depositors were made whole in 2017 dollar value. Meanwhile, in January 2025, prosecutors asked the court to send the recovered 94,643 BTC back to Bitfinex. Customers got fiat based on old value, while Bitfinex collected actual BTC. Withdraw your Bitcoin from exchanges.
