Yep. The New York struggle is still real for us. I just kick those sats to boltz.

Same!
Not going back to Coinbase and swan is a non-starter after being grandfathered in.
I also like that sending sats to self-custody can only take a few hours using the “free 24-hour” option.

No one is forcing anyone to buy any of this.
This “free” mentality stems from being the product of Google, Microsoft, and countless other marketing campaigns.
You can still use Damus without purple
You can opt to not buy a hat or shirt
You can make the economic decision to not pay and even say it’s too much but this “everything should be free” shit is dumb.

I understand what you’re saying and I think the problem really is the size and scope of the federal government.
You can observe that a New York democrat is actually different than a Kentucky democrat, especially on the local level.
I feel the problem is partially because we focus on a body of government to represent 320 million people in a single party ideology.
State, county, and city politics are different even though you will have some overlap and some of the concession voting.
I could be wrong in some aspects though I maintain that if you look more locally it’s a little less party line.

The microblogging is kind of a segue to the other stuff. Identity and the social graph people refer to will need to be the basis that brings some of the other things together.
It seems that we’re in the “replace with nostr equivalent” phase before we get to that unique killer app. Or maybe the greater ecosystem of apps connected loosely through identity and web of trust will be “it”.

They used to be used more widely for jobs too. Never understood the jobs that didn’t require access to sensitive data required stellar (the justification that bad credit people will do bad things to get out of debt). I think that went away after everyone’s credit tanked a bit or i just haven’t seen it much more.
Also I’ve come to accept that credit scores for loans are for people who have no collateral to issue debt against.

Nostr businesses are going to through many iterations of what doesn’t work and what works slightly better.
A good amount of people may not have been around during the shitcoin that was early internet businesses.
Did you know Netscape used to charge for their browser until Microsoft undercut them?
Did you know Netscape before it finally died tried to bundle an email client and IRC client with the browser?
Does anyone remember the hit the money win a prize.
I mean a lot of this pales in comparison to the ad driven monocultural internet we kind of have now (mostly the web but internet at large).
Let’s not go there but let’s also experiment. Some things are going to be shit. Paying for 700 subscriptions to maintain Nostr like streaming services may not be the most optimal but let’s experiment, give feedback, iterate.
…What was the question?

Unless I’m understanding it wrong you would want a 2 of 3 multisig. You have 2 keys and the entity has 1.
- you can move the funds with 2 keys
- if you lose one let you can work with the entity to move to another 2 of 3 so while there is risk there, there is also a safe guard
- entity cannot move funds without you.

It’s also because everyone thinks they are a retroactive fucking genius.
“If only I knew about this shit in 2010 I would be a trillionaire”
Meanwhile here’s what really happens:
- Pussy out because even $500 a coin seems like I’m throwing away my money.
- Finally grow some balls to buy some
- Forget about it for a while and either lose keys or just leave it dormant
- Your bags increase and you make $10k-$50k and think “this shit is an anomaly. If I don’t sell now I’m going to regret it”
- maybe you shitcoin for a bit
- THEN you wise up and do the right thing.
I know the above would have probably been me. Especially me simping out at a 10x. I could bet my stack that I would have fucked it up if I got in super early.

This is far more likely a scam.
Someone is hand picked to buy TikTok most likely with government strings attached. Everyone will get their cut. I’m sure even the CCP will still have a cut (just a smaller piece of the pie).

I missed the last halving by a few months and have clawed and scraped my way to where I’m at now.

Maybe this might miss your point here.
This sentiment has existed for as long as new things have come along and will happen in the future with newer things.
It is a valid view point because this is how we signal that more work needs to be done in what may be more important.
I agree interoperability as in solving the walled garden problem is probsbly nostr’s best feature.
Nostr is never going to out-twitter twitter or out-do YouTube etc.
The focus will need to be both on some base interoperability and uses for Nostr that are more in the background.
Probably rambling a bit.

2024-04-13 00:45:21

Don’t mind anyone being a Bitcoin maximalist but when the fuck did these plebs become communists?
I think most “contrarian Bitcoiners” are just as full of shit and doing for the follows but there is a point to be made when so called Bitcoiners who have saved up their first 100,000 sats start bitching because someone they don’t like uses Bitcoin.

My thoughts on this is looking at the forum. He’s on CNBC. These viewers don’t care about it beyond it being an asset to invest in.
I wouldn’t say medium of exchange is a distraction and maybe that the FUD around Bitcoin because you can’t spend it at the store is a distraction.
Also Saylor lives and breathes in the fiat world. This is just what he cares about.
Overall we shouldn’t look to Saylor or ANY ONE PERSON to push the future we want to see of Bitcoin going beyond “digital gold”.
I also agree we shouldn’t LARP around like Saylor cares about medium of exchange anytime soon.

Why would he expect an influx of that majority into Nostr?
We can ask them to talk about non-Bitcoin stuff and they don’t have anything interesting to share.
We can’t increase adoption with the laggards first.
While it might be a legitimate observation the lurkers aren’t going to get any value from seeing content they don’t care about.
