#nostrplebs #plebchain After orange pilling my barber, I’m looking to expand into the wider community. I’m thinking I’ll pay my dinner bills in fiat, if the business requires, but ask the server if they’ll accept their tip in ⚡️. 5-10% sweetener on the typical 20% if…

Dear #plebchain and #nostrplebs

Dear #plebchain and #nostrplebs My 10year old daughter, Olivia, is raising money for her school in their annual READ-A-THON.

#nostrplebs I’m getting more into LN⚡️. What is considered best practice for storing SATs in your ⚡️ wallet? I’ve been refilling to $100, but might need to keep a bit more if I can transition more of my expenses to ⚡️ payments. Any good blogs on ⚡️ best practices?…
