So impressed with the @primal iOS app. Just went to the bar in #bitcoinatlantis and was told (for the1st time ever) “we only take Bitcoin”. Not unexpected but still mind blowing. Used Primal wallet for the first time with an external send. Worked flawlessly. Love the summary sheet as well.

Arrived at #bitcoinatlantis

At the airport at silly o’clock for the first of three flights to @npub1gnkj...872g in Madeira Manchester - Heathrow Heathrow - Madrid Madrid - Funchal Thanks for cancelling my direct flight @Ryanair Anyhow, a trip combining two of my favourite things - #Bitcoin  and Madeira can’t be bad.

I have to say, Primal is a very polished Nostr app. Very nicely done!

Going to give some sats away to relatives. Would be good to point them somewhere to make a novelty purchase of something.

Spent the last day trying to buy the mini dip. As a seasoned bitcoiner I know the score. I’ve navigated this scenario many times. How a no-coiner is supposed to invest a low 5 figure amount into Bitcoin is fraught with friction and obstacles and most will give up. After a long and intrusive call with my bank freezing my payment, I finally got them to release the funds. Then they got frozen on the exchange and I had to go through the whole process of AML rigmarole all over again. Most people would have given up at the first hurdle. The Bitcoin ETF will be so much more frictionless for normies.
