Can you point me at some best practice for sharing a NOSTR profile? Is the gold standard for that still just sharing the same private key, or is there any NIP for some more elegant form of delegation?

Afraid so. But as long as sats are scarcer than blockspace, shouldn't be an ongoing problem in the first place.

There's a disgusting gaslighting operation going on, coordinated by retardinal shitcoin scammers, seeding around several factual lies:
1) "Valid or expensive things can't be spam: spam is always free and protocol-level-invalid"
2) "Most Bitcoin developers have always been against using mempool filters to fight spam, Core never did it"
3) "Core's mempool filters are working as always intended, there never was an unintentional and unforeseen behavior of the datacarriersize parameter in tapscripts"
4) "The block-increase via witness-discount shipped with Segwit to appease big-blockers didn't end up incentivizing spam over real transactions"
5) "Mempool filters are anti-free-speech and anti-free market censorship, a precursor to OFAC compliant blocks"
6) "Mempool filters can be, contemporarily, totally ineffective in creating friction to spam AND ALSO extremely hurtful for fee prediction
7) "Ordinals and Wizards are not a typical and overt shitcoim grift (with negative effects on privacy and UX for Bitcoiners) but legit technical innovation for Bitcoin"
All lies. Absolute, clear, literal, evident, verifiable lies.
I'm skeptical of filters as a long-term sustainable solution for spam attacks, where the attacker is well-funded enough to bribe miners into behaving maliciously. I think the only structural and long-term solution can only be increasing economic density of L2s, to fight L1 censorship and spam with fee pressure. I believe covenant SFs in general and LNHance in particular would greatly help towards such goal. But I don't tolerate the above lies. And sadly the LNHance campaign is now deeply entangled with promoting them.

I have long thought that the depiction of the "HODL" sub-subculture (within the Bitcoin subculture) as viciously statist, patheically cuck and dangerously anti-privacy, was vastly esagerated, at the hands of the specular "noKYC" sub-sbuculture (that also has its very serious issues: shitcoining, keynesianism, woke bullshit, etc.). Well, I have to admit the some red flags in this sense are real, and spreading. Some "HODL" folks would go to the extent to actually agree with privacy-focus shitcoiners in promoting "privacy coins" as better than Bitcoin (clear nonsense for technical and economical reasons). Horseshoe Theory of Bitcoin.

THE GASLIGHTING NETWORK:
- "Don't believe your own memories of using LN non-custodially on a daily basis for countless times in the last few years, but believe fraudulent marketing claims by shitcoin scammers about you never actually doing what you actually did and do"
- "Don't compare LN to existent, realistic and sustainable alternatives, including its own future iterations and evolutions, but to imaginary born-perfect, silver-bullet, turn-key solutions like gigameg-blocks, miraculously brought to you by the Second Coming of Bitcoin Jesus, resurrected to bring you with him in the Hard Fork Heavens"
- "Don't think about real-world economic/monetary dynamics, pushing most actual users for much of the foreseeable future to prioritize their concern over inflation and confiscation of their long-term savings, over coffee-paying costs or risks, but make up imaginary millions of people with no fiat but somehow lots of sats to spend in billions of fast/cheap transactions starting tomorrow"
- "Don't engage in nuanced and honest discussions about the actual security-model spectrum for different use-cases, but pretend that those millions of imaginary sat-spenders somehow always need, for their imaginary fast/cheap transactions, the very same trustlessness models than slow/huge ones."
- "Don't acknowledge the fact that Bitcoin's usability for normies has been brought from nonexistent to mediocre over 15 years of hard work, but pretend its layer1 was born perfect, without inherent issues like chain-anal/coin-selection/fee-estimation issues"

I think that both "filter teams" I mentioned (OCEAN-led datacarriersize proposal and Chaincodelabs-led bare-multisig proposal) are skeptical of important higher order effects of updating current Core's filter due to the fact that current Core's filter seamingly didn't produce such effects, and the new proposals don't change their fundamental logic. The stronger arguments I've seen about why these new updates would be worse are actually by the team proposing to remove non-fee-based filters from Core completely. But I'm quite sure that would have important higher order effects as well.
I'm not sure Luke or Murch want to wish away any economic game theory, but it's clear it's not a game theory "that makes Bitcoin work", since Core currently filters away high-fee-paying txs from mempool.
I think is entirely reasonabe on their part to suggest only mempool-level upgrades and not soft fork: mempool policy is a matter of local preference, relatively safe & dynamic, block validity is a matter of global consensus, very risky, hard to change and very hard to change back once changed. So far the only one I've seen suggesting a consensus change was a malicious troll by an "ordinals" developer, trying to lure anti-spam users into running a disastrous fork without even an activation date (I don't remember his name, but he's friend with some Bitcoiners so he gets a pass for such irresponsible behavior, sadly). In general, managing something as dynamic as spam with consensus rules seems frankly crazy to me. Spam attacks and DDoS are preferable to consensus failures and splits.
Bitcoin deva always advocated for whitelisted script templates, nothing new: currently Core stansardness rule explicitly whitelist 5 types of txs, while all the other possible types are nonstandard, regardless of the fees. Not having whitelists in mempool policies is *most definitely not* "what makes Bitcoin bitcoin".
I can't prevent malicious or apatic miners get their massive stack of fees coming from "NFT" frauds and spam attacks: I can just refuse to cooperate actively and shame them publicly.
I absolutely agree with you that one can think all of the inscriptions are spam, and accept nothing can be done about it. It may be the case. One could also think that something may be done to some degree (as I suspect) but that it's still better to focus efforts on other things: totally honest and respectable take.

Thank you for answering one-off even if blocked elsewhere (I block very liberally on Twitter, here it's neither possible nor needed).
The proposal you list is the second "type" I mention in my brief list. The higher order effect you mention (increasing already present offband auctions of blockspace) would be common between that and the third "type" (Much's proposal to filter out bare multisig, apparently popular among Core devs). But since Core already filters high-fee-paying valid txs, it seems to me that, at least in principle, the first "type" is the only proposal that would avoid that higher order effect completely...not the status quo. Even if I find it likely that the umprecedented move to a total lack of mempool filtering could produce way more/bigger higher order effects.

Uh? The only radical mempool policy change proposal I see (removing incentive-incompatible filters entirely) are from Peter Todd and Ben Carman, but don't seem to have much following. Milder, more conservative proposals come from Luke Dashjr in Knots & disrespector-patch promoters in Core (extending to tapscript the very same datacarriersize policy that Core uses for pre-taproot txs) and Mark Erhardt (filtering out bare multisig in Core as well, as Knots already does since year). All minority views. Do you hear about anything else?

Actively proposing block templates that hurt Bitcoin users is not something that we can ask Luke to do. But that's irrelevant to the actual Ocean's plan, which is to move such decision to adult miners, instead of leaving it to daddy pool. The possible negative revenue diff for miners (still to be demonstrated, since for example Luxor's "wizard" blocks were paid offband by shitcoin spammers and paid nothing to workers) just needs to be small not to overshadow positive revenue diffs.

To be pedantic, pruning can happen even at non-witness level. If you set it in the bitcoin.conf, you can just reduce your stored timechain keeping just the last blocks (of course *after* you downloaded and validated all of them once). Pruning is just discarding what you don't need anymore after sync. In principle, everything but the UTXOset is prunable (assuming no reorgs). Witness program is somehow even "more prunable".

You do keep custody, but keys are "hot" of course, so lower security than cold storage, especially if you are a maker, always connected with hot keys. But it's the same with Sparrow+Whirpool or with Wasabi (unless you use the latest Wasabi+Trezor integration).
To elaborate more on @npub1t7w…3rr7 's answer, I don't think Wasabi has specific "privacy leak" issues, but it definitely has ethical issues because it partners with chainanal companies to blacklist some UTXOs based on their political ranking. Whirpool, otoh, may have some privacy issues, but hugely mitigated when used with Sparrow (or Dojo). I still prefer Joinmarket.

Another thing that pushed me to review my semi-serious Las Vegas speech was this presentation by Sergej Kotliar, where he separated (imo correctly) "Bitcoin the tool" from "Bitcoin the movement", but in a way that triggered a lot my Venn-related autism, because he ascribed to the "movement" only the subset of cultural idiosyncrasies I would ascribe to the "Austrian/Maximalism" subculture ("low time preference", "HODL", "NgU", "no shitcoins", "hyperbitcoinization fixes this", etc), and to the "tool" some memes that are imo very much part of the cypherpunk subculture ("privacy", "dissidents", "wikileaks"), itself very much part of the "movement", not of the "tool", which I think would instead include, from a pragmatic PoV, most of the gambling-related uses Sergej call "the Casino":

Tbf, I don't see the post as example of mindless "taproot is bad" slogans. I think it's correct that *if* we know in advance that different forks will have to change output formats, it's better (at least ceteris paribus) to batch them together, to minimize anonset and compatibility bootstrapping issues. I think the specific objection is that, in this case, it was *not* clear at all CISA (which as you say is very complex) would have required a new format! Even intra-input aggregation wasn't really very clear back them, cfr Musig->Musig2, Frost, etc.. The "70% discount" fake news is indeed weird and counterproductive to the discussion. Even if I am worried of the spread of a symmetrically uninformed meme about CISA incentives being entirely "irrelevant": 15% is still relevant in likely high-fee scenarios (even accounting for coordination costs), and replacing witness discount with CISA could get us closer to 40%. But yeah, a lot of confusion unfortunately. Even about the "ordinal inscriptions" wave being "because of taproot".

Where else do you find somebody who's main defect is *not* spending fast enough the money you give him? Low time preference FTW!!!

A Logseq-like or Roam-like Nostr client, more in general, could be cool! Good for sharing and cooperating too.

I'm becoming a Logseq maximalist, recently. The only thing I miss is a version where it syncs over Nostr instead of git/github! :)

I despise shitcoin scams, but I'd defend Ethereum over Gary Gensler.
I despise woke bullshit, but I'd defend Disney over Ron DeSantis.
Virtue/truth is important, but is meaningless without freedom. Freedom is what makes virtue/truth significant, sustainable, durable, beautiful.

Thanks. A bit annoying, but so far the "follow all" function on Iris, coupled with the assumption that anybody following me at this stage is a friend, fixes that.

Uh? Which gap? Mempool policy is not consensus. To remove the witness subsidy a SF is needed, yes.

Gambling is dumb, but less dumb that spending actual sats to spam jpegs. I'm not policing anything, since I can. I am bitching about stupif stuff, and you are bitching about what I chose to bitch about. That's why I joined nostr anyway, so I'll go on.

What I mean by it is: "a sizable part of the economy caring for some arbitrary way to imagine up a link between sats in inputs and sats in outputs, enough to make it an economically relevant connection". Luckily it will not happen.

PSA: if this "ordinal" arbitrary meta-protocol was part of the actual Bitcoin protocol, we would have:
- no LNRouting,
- no CoinJoin/PayJoin,
- no smart CoinSelection.
Luckily, most human beings are/will be interested in permissionless money, only a few incels care for jpeg spam.

Ok, trying now iris.to, suggested by #[0] ... seems better than the alternatives so far.

How do you like posts? I like to like posts! :D
Also, annoying to upload profile pictures manually.

Thanks, I most definitely will!

Nostros for Android (but I'll give Amethyst a try asap). On laptop, via browser: astral.ninja to find people, snort.social to "like" and to set avatar/header images. But the are all working less consistently everyday. I guess they are rewriting each other.

2023-01-21 11:29:57

Why do I have to re-follow people on nostr every day? Aren't the "follow" relationship just nostr posts? I still see my public posts and my private messages, but the follow relationship disappear every few hours. Maybe some of the many apps I'm using overwriting?
