No KYC” is becoming a pretty useless description of a Bitcoin market \ stacker news

1+ week, 2+ day ago   (164+ words) I've been comparing Peach, Bisq, RoboSats and Mostro after everything that's happened with Peach recently. The more I looked at them, the less useful the label “no KYC exchange” became. They solve completely different trust problems. You can use Tor,…...

What if we backed newcomers instead of just telling them to self custody \ stacker news

2+ week, 1+ day ago   (225+ words) Been thinking about this since the Spark thing kicked off. Custody wasn't the problem there, the lack of honesty about it was. Same logic here. I know people who are never going to run a node or hold a seed....
