Don't be like this moron. Clueless, overconfident, and spewing baseless nonsense. There are too many people like this in this ecosystem literally conducting a Denial of Service attack on any adult or logic based conversation regarding upgrades to Bitcoin.
Point 1: CTV does absolutely nothing to change "spam transactions" as something that can happen on Bitcoin. All CTV does is commit to chains of transactions, exactly like pre-signed transactions do now, except enforcing them by consensus. It makes zero difference on any level to people's ability to flood the network with long chains of transactions.
Point 2: CTV cannot do recursion, period, full stop. That was an explicit design goal. It cannot create circular chains of transactions either, _that is impossible under the laws of information theory_. Transactions must reference transaction IDs, once one transaction with ID A is spent, that TXID cannot be recreated, ever. Full nonsense gibberish.
Point 3: Nothing about CTV creates a risk of walled gardens at all. Self custody not scaling, and forcing people to use Coinbase, or Cashapp, or River, creates the risk of walled gardens. The only way for most people to use Bitcoin being with the permission of a custodian creates the risk of walled gardens. This is incoherent.
This moron VERY clearly just regurgitated incoherent ChatGPT hallucinations to try to participate in a conversation he doesn't understand the first thing about. That is a Denial of Service attack. Don't be like this moron. If you want to participate in these conversations, than be humble and recognize the limits of your current understanding, and work to expand the horizon of your understanding.
Don't regurgitate incoherent bullshit to argue a dogmatic position you don't even understand the logic behind.

Overlay is probably not the best term, but something piggybacking on it. The overlay graph would stand out, but not the individual social graph nodes within the overlay.

2024-10-02 22:06:25

So I have been thinking lately, and I'm pretty confident at this point that a relatively private overlay protocol can be done on top of Nostr for people in dangerous situations. It would not be cleanly interoperable with conventional users.

o.O thats not an answer, and the scheme would require at least two colors chemically consistent enough to have the same x-ray profile to have a solid background with text overlays in a different color not show any differentiation between the two in terms of xray opacity.

2024-09-30 21:40:51

what type of chemical differences between different hues exist that would have an impact of ink density printed on paper. I.e. yellow vs. blue vs. black. I'm trying to figure out the practicality of printed information in solid blocks of background color with a distinguishing color for text on top so that the text would not be distinguishable from the background color under an xray.

2024-09-30 17:28:47

If anyone has any kind of experience or resources regarding different chemical compositions of printer inks, would appreciate a brain to pick.

The idea is give both sides a financial incentive. If the researcher does good research without fraud, after a time period they can claim money that goes directly into their own pocket. People who can prove fraud instead at any time can prove that to the federated escrow to claim the funds instead. Researchers have an incentive to be honest, and reviewers have an incentive to find fraud.

2024-09-30 00:30:20

I wonder what effect federated bonds would have in the world of scientific research. Bond some portion of research grants and timelock them. Path A, researcher can claim funds after timelock. Path B, funds can be claimed by oracles and paid out to anyone proving research fraud.

Correct me if I'm wrong but this seems to add overhead for no reason versus just sending the event IDs of what you have. Why add the overhead of the tree unless you want proper inclusion proofs (which would require merkelizing all events you have as a relay).

A bit filter would be much better. The only issue is there are false positives. So occasionally you would send a filter to a relay and it would think you already have some event that you dont. You can tune the false positive rate though.
