I'm by no means an expert with Linux distros but I've been enjoying CachyOS. First one I've stuck with for a while.

I've been using Qwen 3.8 27b on my local machine for a bit and it's pretty solid! For ease of use I've got it in Bionic (made by LM Studio) which acts as an agent for whatever models you run - able to make files, folders, call tools, link in MCP servers, build apps, build repetitive skills, etc.
The other cool thing is that you can use LM link to share models with any of your other computers - both locally and globally.
I covered it all in this video. If you have yet to dive into the world of local AI, this is the video for you. I start simple, then build up a knowledge base throughout. Please enjoy, and share if you find it useful!

FROSTSNAP is a new way of doing multisig using the Frost protocol.
One key, split across multiple devices.
No config file necessary.
Probably the easiest multisig setup I've experienced.
If you have enough devices to sign, you have enough devices to recreate the wallet.
Looks like (and is) single sig on-chain, meaning lower fees and better privacy (transactions don't reveal it's a multisig).
This tutorial shows the full setup, tx flow, recovery, and I weigh in on some benefits/tradeoffs.

In this new tutorial I use Silent.Link to get a private eSim on my Graphene phone, using Bitcoin.
One global eSIM with no expiry dates, data around the world, and if you want - inbound SMS with a dedicated number. All paid in Bitcoin, top up any time via lightning. No name, no email, no KYC.
Enjoy the vid, give a share, and LMK what you think.

In this moment I think that diversification of security is actually a better mindset. That can be splitting funds across 2 or 3 vendors or for the tech savvy it could mean multi vendor multisig.
I also think that a year from now the best options will be ones that have been heavily hardened by AI audits of their codebase that are publicly verified and patched. Right now it's early days of that process.

Logically it should work, but honestly I've lost all trust.

2026-08-11 15:34:45 UTC

This past week was a nightmare and forced me to reexamine a lot of my assumptions and threat models. Two topics bubbled to the top alot that I thought warranted videos... so I got to work.
How do you use dice to generate your own entropy when creating keys? This video uses dice and the @nprofile…w6hy to accomplish just that, while verifying using an external tool.
https://youtu.be/oMDPMZL5xLw
Putting trust in a single hardware vendor means having all your eggs in one basket. One tactic may be to keep some of your corn in different devices. Another may be to combine them into a multi-vendor multisig. This video goes through doing the latter - on Sparrow with Trezor, Jade and @nprofile…0kcc , then on mobile with @nprofile…4lkm @nprofile…w6hy and @nprofile…g8xl Jade.
https://youtu.be/Ja3ETXLmklI
There's no perfect answer for EVERYONE, but it's worth exploring your options and seeing what works for you.
BTW if you are finding these videos helpful, ALL of my tutorials will now be uploaded to Sovereign Sessions. Join me there:

Today I launched Sovereign Sessions with 3 new freedom tech tutorials.
LM Studio:
How do you start with the basics of running AI locally on your laptop? What do all the fancy terms mean? What is your hardware capable of running and where does it fall short? Find out here.
https://youtu.be/vuii4FjH59g
GrapheneOS:
The looming threat of OS level age verification, paired with the always-on tracking of Apple and Google are enough to make a lot of people look for an alternative. Graphene is one of the most private OS options for mobile out there. Here's how to install and use it.
https://youtu.be/DXLAFrCVoEg
Umbrel Pro:
When people refer to sovereign computing, it can include a lot of things. Hosting your own files, photos, media, passwords, AI agents, Bitcoin node, etc. The Umbrel Pro is an accessible plug and play way to start setting foot in that world. Here's how to set up and navigate one as you start your journey.
https://youtu.be/DFWZbTz5mW0
This channel will also be the new home for my Bitcoin tutorials - of which I have a dice roll/Seedsigner video and a multi-vendor multisig video both coming out on Tuesday.

This Friday we're hosting our 7 local Bitcoin market in Calgary! We're expecting just shy of 40 merchants, all accepting BTC. We've got tradesmen, farmers, artisans, real estate agents, barbers, masseuses, hypnotherapists, and plenty more!
Love seeing the local Bitcoin circular economy grow.

Your efforts are having the polar opposite effect that you are intending.

2026-06-19 15:14:18 UTC

As a reminder, you can get sats without ID (which are the best kind of sats!)
I've been messing around with @nprofile…ac87 now that they added lightning and it's pretty seamless. Definitely worth testing if anyone gets the chance. I'll have a tutorial for that when Sovereign Sessions launches this August, but it's basically the same flow as on-chain with some small differences.
Feel free to check out my previous tutorial:

I've got a Linux machine to experiment with, but my main work computer for media creation is a Mac. Was just wondering if it's possible to use something like docker to install carefully without handing over access to the whole system.

2026-06-06 08:36:09 UTC

What's a reasonably secure way to use Hermes? Does it have to be on a segregated machine, or is there a good way to sandbox it on your main computer? How difficult is it to give the agent selective access and have it still be useful?

2026-06-06 08:32:17 UTC

It's pretty neat that I'm sitting here in Europe, hit the zap button while browsing Nostr, and it triggers a lightning payment from my node back home in Canada. Magic!

Looking to do a video on @nprofile…uh5t AI for @nprofile…lv35 channel launch. What kinds of things should I cover in it? Any cool features I might miss that I should be sure to include?

Bitcoin as just an investment changes nothing. The printer runs, wealth gets siphoned, empires expand - buying all the resources and assets with their paper lies.
With Bitcoin as money, the monopoly on printing disappears and the kleptocratic base layer implodes.
USE Bitcoin.

Made a Bitchat video! Has been awesome to see this used at many Bitcoin events as a demo, but even more awesome to see it used during protests under authoritarian regimes and natural disasters when Internet goes down.

The other day the South Korean National Tax Service said it would enter homes and search for hardware wallets to confiscate...
So I made a video on tactics to help you hide your bitcoin. Enjoy.

Just finished editing my video for Wallet of Satoshi self custodial mode.
This was my first experience using and learning about Spark as a Bitcoin layer 2.
My key takeaways:
-everything worked seamlessly
-no need for lightning channels or liquidity management
-the switch from custodial to self custody is simple (a few clicks)
-options for traditional seed or encrypted cloud backup
-still learning about Spark trade-offs, there is some trust involved, better than custodial, not as good as full self custody on chain
-Unilateral exit is possible but tools seem sparse in these early days
Video drops tomorrow!

I've been thinking about my life enjoyment lately and a big part of what drags me down is getting into doom scrolling.
For work I need a device that's connected to a lot of stuff, but I want to unplug outside of those times. I think my Graphene phone will be that for me, and the only social I plan on having with it is Nostr.
What other minimal things do you figure would be useful to put on it for basic non-work necessities, that also won't have me habitually looking at a screen all day? Think things like maps, ride sharing, message app for only friends and family, etc

I set my daughter up with a simple lightning wallet and taught her about how the machines in my office mine a little bit of BTC to her address each day.
It's a fun way to get my kids involved and learning!

Yo @nprofile…vgs2 I'm making a @nprofile…sq8x tutorial ASAP here! Would love feedback on the most important things to include in the video!
Thoughts on: general video flow to remain accessible to noobs, best setup flow from initial download, features to highlight, any advanced bits I should include near the end, etc.
Happy to get feedback from anyone else on here as well!

Surprisingly easy to install the OS. Tricky part comes in getting the right apps to make your phone work without spying on you. Will conver that in the video as best I can.

What are some must-have apps on a de-googled phone running GrapheneOS? How do you make the transition from convenient panopticon to personal privacy with a little elbow grease?
Would love suggestions on things I can cover in my tutorial. Tag anyone that might have suggestions!

Hadn't opened Nostr in a day or so. I feel I've missed so much.

- Blockstream Wallet
- Ashigaru full stack (self hosted)
- SeedHammer 2 (when it ships)
- Coldcard Paper Wallets feature
- Bitcoinize Machine + Bolt Cards
- BTCpay advanced features and integrations
- Damus (when it hits android)
- Amethyst
