Just like everything is good for #bitcoin, everything is good for #nostr
Apple is causing a Streisand Effect for @damusapp
Much like Elon including nostr in his list of censorable external links, Apple trying to ban Damus will cause people to ask “what’s Damus? What’s nostr?”
JUST IN - Twitter founder Jack Dorsey: "Apple building on and with #bitcoin would benefit their company immensely."
"I hope they are considering this one deeply. I imagine they are."
For Immediate Release:
Swan Bitcoin Banned by YouTube, Moves to Twitter Video
The Swan Bitcoin YouTube channel was banned by YouTube this morning.
https://t.co/Tas0TPVmFj
Swan, a Bitcoin-centric financial firm, is moving their educational Bitcoin and macroeconomic video channel to their new media platform, https://t.co/ThlGva4Dsi.
YouTube’s explanation for the ban:
“We reviewed your channel carefully, and have confirmed that it violates our Community Guidelines. We know this is probably disappointing news, but it’s our job to make sure the YouTube is a safe place for all. We won’t be putting your channel back up on Youtube.”
Swan co-founder and CTO Yan Pritzker said, “Our YouTube channel was bringing sober and smart macroeconomic and technology education to 54,000 subscribers featuring top quality interviews with respected professionals. YouTube banned it while allowing countless crypto scam channels to continue that promote gambling and Ponzi schemes.”
Swan’s reporting includes the show Hard Money, featuring Emmy-award winning anchor Natalie Brunell, which was recently nominated as a finalist in the LA Press Club’s SoCal Journalism Awards (https://t.co/7whBqOGRnD). Here’s the nominated story:

YouTube banned Swan’s channel once before, in 2020, again with no explanation, and returned it to Swan more than a year later, again with no explanation. In the meantime Swan had to create an entirely new channel and build up their audience from scratch.
I’m available for comment, as are Yan and Natalie. Please email [email protected].
Thank you!
Cory Klippsten, Founder & CEO, Swan Bitcoin
US Gov Rev fell 21% YoY, & spending rose 20%.
A $240 B deficit for the month = double the deficit a year ago, and...
the fiscal gap is up 191% jump from a year ago, during peak Covid spending!!
What happens next month is anyone's guess, but we all know the direction! 🚀
SEC vs Consensys and EF incoming?
The court ordered the full release of the Hinman papers, but some parts are still censored as, according to the SEC ***they pertain to ongoing investigations/proceedings***
Subject of one majorly censored section? Ethereum.
Our YouTube channel was bringing sober and smart macroeconomic and technology education to 54k subscribers featuring top quality interviews with respected professionals. @TeamYouTube banned it while allowing countless crypto scam channels to continue that promote gambling and Ponzi schemes. Please rectify.
The day has barely started and already a big setback for the SEC
They argued that Hinman was just a loose cannon going off on his own, clear now that he got sign off from the highest levels. Great news overall
Here is my #bitcoin Lightning address, posted to Twitter from my iPhone.
@Apple are you going to remove Twitter from the App Store now, or just #nostr apps like @damusapp?
Please advise.

Hey @Apple, users on @damusapp are not “receiving content from digital content creators.”
The content is posted on #nostr via many clients, & is completely FREE for everyone.
Users are not “paying for the content” — nothing is being “purchased.”
Please correct your mistake.
When one governs #BTC in the best way with their own keys and node, they hold a kingdom whose borders are hardest to breach. It is solely Bitcoin that offers this fortitude, its supply as unalterable as the course of the sun.
This is a *must watch*, 2 hour discussion about America’s origins in freedom and sovereignty, power hierarchies, how Bitcoin is the new frontier, and much more. You won’t be disappointed! @saylor@johnkvallis@americanhodl8@Breedlove22@Erikcason
