Are one tap zaps the killer app for nostr? [Block #789552]
Join Mandana and Ian in this week's episode as they dive into the latest Bitcoin and Nostr news. First, the upcoming #NostrAsia conference, set to take place in Tokyo and Hong Kong simultaneously on Nov 1-3 and then "one tap zaps," the newest feature sweeping across all major Nostr clients, that makes sending Bitcoin as simple as a “like”. Shifting gears to Bitcoin, Ian breaks down the recent weeks of high transaction fees and their impact on the Bitcoin community. Additionally, Ian sheds light on Swan and Strike's approaches to navigate the new limitations imposed by Prime Trust's availability in North Carolina, offering a glimpse into the evolving landscape of the industry. Tune in to stay informed about the dynamic world of Nostr and gain valuable perspectives on the shifting rules of the game.

Were people really getting drugs delivered to their house?
On this episode of Flirting with Bitcoin, we take a trip down memory lane and discuss the original Silk Road, an infamous online marketplace where people could buy and sell drugs and other goods using Bitcoin. We discuss the impact of Silk Road on the early Bitcoin community, including the challenges it posed to Bitcoin's reputation and the subsequent crackdown by law enforcement agencies.
We also have some important news to share regarding our bounty program. Due to popular demand and to keep the fun going, we have decided to continue the program, but with a reduced payout. Tune in to find out the new reward amounts, and how you can still participate in the program.
So sit back, relax, and join us as we explore the colorful history of the Bitcoin community and share some exciting updates on the show

Has the Dread Pirate Roberts returned? [Block #786282]
Welcome back to Flirting with Bitcoin, the show where we flirt with the future of money and try not to get rejected by the markets. In this episode, Mandana and Ian discuss the early days of their latest scheme to lure listeners into their Bitcoin-loving clutches: the #flirtingwithbitcoinclips bounty program. It's like a treasure hunt, but instead of gold doubloons, you get 1000 satoshis for creating a clip of our show on Fountain and another 1000 satoshis for sharing it on Nostr. It's a win-win situation, folks. You get some sweet, sweet sats, and we get to spread our message of financial liberation to the masses. It's a beautiful thing.
But seriously, folks, we're thrilled to see the power of user-generated content in action. It's the future of podcasting, and we're happy to be at the forefront of this revolution. We also dive into the latest news in the Bitcoin world, including the recent surge in adoption and what it means for the traditional financial system. And, as always, we're not afraid to tackle the big questions, like whether CivKit, the proposed decentralized marketplace, is the next Silk Road or the next Amazon. Join us for a fun and enlightening episode, as we continue to flirt with the unknown and embrace the chaos.

They are paying 1000 sats for every clip made on fountain from now on. But it doesn’t stop there. If you share it on Nostr and tag the pod they will zap the post and additional 1000 sats.

FW₿054 - TikTok Next Block
Ian and Mandana discuss the recent testimony of the CEO of TikTok in Congress and about a letter signed by tech leaders like Elon Musk and Steve Wozniak, among others, calling for a halt to open AI development and how this connects to Bitcoin and the opinions of the Bitcoin community. The episode also touched upon OpenAI, a company that started as a nonprofit, which aimed to open-source all AI technology to prevent anyone from having an upper hand in the industry and creating dangerous robots. OpenAI eventually became a for-profit company and partnered with Microsoft, which bought a stake in the company, but Microsoft doesn't own OpenAI. The podcast explained why tech leaders are concerned about OpenAI and AI models, and how a billion-dollar investment in OpenAI by Microsoft could potentially result in complete control over the company.

In this episode, Ian and Mandana share the exciting news of their new baby Kian, who was born on the same day as the collapse of the Silicon Valley Bank. As passionate Bitcoin investors, they dive into the world of Bitcoin and discuss its unpredictable value, hoping it will pay off so they can afford more than just baby wipes. They also dream of their child growing up to be a Bitcoin billionaire, or at least not thinking Bitcoin is some fictional video game money. As they navigate the challenges of being Bitcoin investors and new parents, they hope to find a balance between risk and reward, so they're not the couple who spent their kid's college fund on a meme coin.

Can I afford to not buy Bitcoin?
What’s the realistic timeline for leaving the Fiat world and moving to Bitcoin island? Mandana questions Ian on his latest projections with the growing evidence that our economy is broken. Ian updates us on the NFTs in Bitcoin discourse, Wyoming protecting our Private Keys, and El Salvador opening a Bitcoin Embassy in good ol’ Texas. Is it time to get your escape plan ready? Ian makes his case.

Does Rihanna Have Bitcoin? [Block #776202]
It's your last chance to enter the latest #FlirtingWithBitcoinChallange and this time Mandana wants you to buy Bitcoin for your valentine, or yourself.
Share your proof of purchase on Nostr and we’ll match up to $50. Make sure you tag the pod’s pubkey
@npub1627md0lshr7hsa9z6ud8xpln2xvrszjcqv0uu5d8cjvz4f2vscnsat3aec
However, if you post on Twitter or Instagram we’re only matching up to $25. Make sure you tag the pod
Twitter - @flirtingwithbtc
Instagram - @flirtingwithbitcoin
But no matter where you post make sure you include the hashtag #FlirtingWithBitcoinChallange
All entries gotta be posted by Valentine's night!
This week we dive into Bitcoin Island happenings including the SEC fining Kraken, our new ‘Flirting With Nostr’ segment that explains “Zaps” on Damus, and NFTs now finding their way on the Bitcoin Blockchain (inscriptions).
Ian closes it out explaining why he thinks Rihanna and other artists will soon be saying B*tch Better Have My Bitcoin. The future is decentralized, and Jack Dorsey & Jay-Z’s Tidal may lead the way for musicians - yayo, yayo!

Is Bitcoin love? [Block #774916]
It’s February and with another consumerism based holiday ahead of us, Mandana wants to do another #FlirtingWithBitcoinChallange. Gift your honey, or yourself, Bitcoin and one lucky winner will get matched by the pod! Post on #Nostr to get matched up to $50 USD in Bitcoin, or $25 USD on Twitter or Instagram. Ian pitches dimes and satscards as the best way to gift Bitcoin.
This week Ian further explains how Nostr and Bitcoin are intertwined, why it’s worth paying attention to its growth, and what it could mean for countries like China. Mandana reflects on 2 years of marriage, and more importantly 50 episodes of the pod. We’re just getting started!

Why are only Bitcoiners on Nostr?
Looks like the Nostr protocol is has found its groove as the new Twitter for Bitcoiners. Mandana, officially a Nostr OG, wonders what it’ll take for non-Bitcoiners to “get it” and join. Photo sharing? Make it the new TikTok? Ian says it’s bigger than that. Also, last week Mandana did her first Key Check. Do you know how to do yours? And finally, the Bukelle administration is paying off debt that was taken on by previous corrupt administrations… unlike any administration in the US in the last 20 years. Ain’t that interesting!

Well, well, well. After a rough 2022, Bitcoin just moved +25% in a week. Is Ian gloating? Does Mandana have more conviction for Bitcoin? Or more importantly, does she want to sell? What does this “pump” mean amidst the SEC coming after Gemini and Genius. Could this be the year that alt coins finally get taken down? Ian and Mandana think so. What do you think?

New Year, Same Schemes [Block #771180]
Looks like we’ve made it! Mandana and Ian celebrate their first anniversary of making the pod and Bitcoin’s 14th birthday. Hello terrible teens? Mandana wonders if Bitcoiners have learned their lesson yet when it comes to storage. Ian catches her up to the latest imploding crypto company. Seems like the Winklevoss twins’ (remember them? Think Facebook origin story) crypto exchange Gemini and Genesis, owned by Barry Silbert’s Digital Currency Group, just cost their customers $900 million worth of coins. Oh, and a non-crypto bank, Silvergate, may also collapse. Check your money storage folks! No one is safe.

Am I a real bitcoiner yet?
After a year of making the pod, Ian and Mandana reflect on major stories, lessons learned, and what lies ahead for Bitcoin next year. If this was your first year learning about Bitcoin, are you convinced that Bitcoin is the best money? After experiencing this year’s volatility, will you HODL next time Bitcoin goes up? Or will you cash out? Do you have the conviction of a Bitcoin Maxi, or like Mandana, are you just not there yet?

-
Follow us on Twitter and/or Instagram
-
Share proof of purchase on Twitter or Instagram by tagging the pod and using the hashtag #FlirtingWithBitcoinHolidayChallange.

Why has no one been arrested from the FTX collapse?
Ian fills Mandana in on the latest developments that include outrageously biased media coverage, Kanye-esque SBF interviews, laundering stolen funds through Ethereum, and even a mysterious death... Maybe murder! Will SBF join our pod next to explain himself? The first question would be... How was FTX the biggest exchange but they didn’t hold any Bitcoin?
NOTE!
After we recorded the episode, Coffeezilla got SBF to do an interview with him. It appears that he got him to admit to fraud. You be the judge.

Does Bitcoin vibe with the holidays?
Mandana pokes fun at Ian's schtick of calling almost every aspect of their lives "fiat". Is Thanksgiving fiat? Black Friday? Christmas? Ian makes the case against Santa Claus. Mandana agrees not to lie to their future children about imaginary men who watch them in exchange for gifts. The Bitcoin mindset is here to make your life easier this holiday season. You're welcome!

Another day, another major Crypto company falls. Mandana wonders why FTX news has crept into her normal media outlets. Ian reviews what she’s learned without his help thanks to Roca News, and fills in the gaps that only Bitcoiners seem to see. Mandana asks if this will finally end the trading of cryptocurrencies tied to exchanges such as FTX’s token FTT. Ian tries to drive the point home that ignoring crypto and Bitcoin is no longer an option. If you care about your hard-earned money, you need to pay close attention to who you “trust” to store your money. And if you trust no one, there is always Bitcoin.

Can Bitcoin help the international Free Iran movement?
Mandana, a child of Iran, wants to learn step by step how Iranians and the diaspora can utilize Bitcoin for financial freedom during this historic fight against the oppressive Islamic Republic of Iran. Ian, who always points to Bitcoin as a tool for revolution, identifies a reliable Bitcoin exchange and wallet that can be used by those in Iran to convert their Tomans to Bitcoin. Mandana asks how it all works in terms of foreign sanctions against Iran and the privacy needed to move money around during this volatile time of high inflation and national instability. Ian walks her through the varying degrees of security and privacy that can be achieved and opens the door for more questions from our listeners around the world.

Can I get sick of Bitcoin even if I host a podcast about it?
Continuing this ~intimate~ series, Mandana defends the perspective of the less interested person in a Bitcoin relationship. Sometimes she wants to talk just about anything else. Ian shares why and when he tried to show restraint, but often it’s the most interesting thing on his mind. Mandana asks for slack in moments she’s not receptive, because she is giving as much as she can to share an interest with her husband. Ian shares his tips on how to ease someone unreceptive into Bitcoin talks, they worked on Mandana! Hey, maybe one day you too could have a Bitcoin podcast with your uninterested spouse!

Is Bitcoin better for family planning?
Keeping the conversation going about their relationship and future, Ian shares Jimmy Song's latest essay about the theory that fiat debases the value of having a family. Mandana questions the incentive structures around the cost of raising a family. Ian explains how living on a Bitcoin Standard can shift people’s reliance on the government back to the family; a way of living Mandana relates to given her own upbringing and her big "crazy" family. Because of Bitcoin, and Mandana, Ian says his goal is to build generational wealth for their grandchildren (and maybe to also get his own farm).

Ian reminds Mandana about the financial repression we’ve seen this year and how Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) are the next step. Ian makes the pitch to switch as Mandana compares it to the slow move her friends made to Signal for private messaging.

Is Our Future Really Set With Bitcoin?
Mandana notices that, like Ian, she's been unreasonably calm about inflation and market crashes but also questions how and when they'll benefit from their Bitcoin if they never sell. Ian attempts to explain the difference between saving and spending Bitcoin and how their initial strategy of combining finances set them up for Bitcoin success with the ultimate goal of “retiring his wife”. In addition to the Satoshi Savings Calculator, Ian shows Mandana one of the websites, Priced In Bitcoin, that helped him convert to the Satoshi mindset and build conviction in the idea that “when you live on a Bitcoin standard, everything has been getting cheaper!”
