bitcoin is sybil resistant via proof-of-work. nostr is sybil resistant via web-of-trust

nostr and bluesky are like bitcoin and xrp. you don't really need to worry if the fundamentals are on your side
I do agree though that protocols that are actually revolutionary can make entrepreneurs very frustrated

fedi app for fedimints

2024-06-07 22:16:28

- reply

that's a different issue, but for this you'll have to have visibility into the code that your counterparty runs, and that's impractical
you can use tor or vpn, and provide as little information as possible to the process that runs on your machine, but you can never validate what information your counterparty keeps and how it uses it

2024-06-07 20:35:32

is it even possible to log back into your ubuntu after a few days without it insisting that you must restart or the world will end?

2024-06-07 16:13:36

- reply

since fedi is practically just keeping pieces of strings for you (no cryptography as an ecash end user), i guess it’s tolerable. fountain is also an LN custodian with no client side cryptography afaik. as for keet i never used it so don’t know
open source is mostly critical for applications that implement cryptographic protocols, to be able to verify they are not backdoored

twitter is practically divided into 1000s of different twitters yet they’ll say nostr is not scalable because it doesn’t have a global state.. when was the last time you “explored” twitter?

why don't we like let builders iterate over the dumbest, simplest to maintain grug covenants (LNHANCE with CTV and APO emulation) without wanking over endogenous fees, WHILE UTXOS ARE STILL CHEAP AS FUCK and then see what finds use cases to see what can be improved?
it's not like segwit and CSV were the only requirements to make LN perfect. they were the minimum, and LN still launched and iterated into a very useful paradigm, regardless of the shortcomings

bitcoin NEEDS to be challenged to get stronger
1000s of faceless coin mixers instead of one whirlpool
1000s of local LSPs instead of one phoenix
1000s of local P2P trading venues instead of one coinbase
1000s of micro miners instead of one marathon
if consolidation of service providers wasn’t a problem the federal reserve would have been just fine
bitcoin itself, and the way people use it MUST adapt to be able to route around single points of failure. the samurai case couldn’t be a better wake up call
it’s all about the ROI on violence. if the state cannot jail 10000 “unlicensed money transmitter” it will give up

there's no reason why self custody won't scale to 100s of millions through coin pools

2024-01-11 17:16:20

retail normies were never going to buy bitcoin for these prices, unit bias is too powerful over the NPC mind ("if I can't have 1 it's not worth it"). that's why they created ETFs - to bridge the gap from BTC to sats
eventually everyone will be using sats without knowing how they got there, like with all technological shifts
in the meanwhile, bitcoin got some more leeway to improve self custody - tools, payments infra, scale, protocol improvements. the ETFs help to cover up the current embarrassment

2023-12-13 14:01:34

you need to understand something fundamental: LN wasn't created to save 1 sat/byte fees. using bitcoin is expensive and a ratio of it translates to the cost of using LN
transacting free on chain was a honeymoon period that will never come back
