Last Notes
that's the funny way of putting it! 🤣
It makes sense if only one relay is down. Am I misreading your note? It mentioned that technically speaking if you broadcast the IP which you block listed (as spammers) to other relays, inevitably, those relays may block that IP too. In a nutshell, this method is not as simple as shutting one relay. But it means other users cannot use other relays after it receives your broadcast. However, I maybe misunderstanding it. Don't get me wrong, 💯 agree of getting rid of the spammers. I am only suggesting is the method above the only way? I'll leave this thought to you, the expert. 👌☺️

💯 agree. It was off putting to begin with not seeing faces of others but I understand the logic. Like you said, one must feel comfortable expressing themselves here. Perhaps once trust is established between people you interact here, only then one will have the privilege to see their true nature, face. ☺️👌
I could shut down the damus relay today, is that censorship? no, you would just use other relays.

could I ask how is this solution different from centralised platform? we go for a one solution of banning people due to the act of small group? this go against the very principle we are fighting for here on nostr. Is it just me that recommending people to spin up their own relay as if every average folk is as techy as those who run/own relay is hindering people to use nostr? As clever as you are I am certain you understand the sentiments of other people here. I am sure you will find a better way. I don't agree that banning VPN users because spammers could use the same IP is not logical to me. It is like saying that hackers are thieves, techy and bad. Does this mean all techy people are hackers and bad? ☺️

Bitcoin’s Computational Power Falls 9.95% After Record Hashrate.
Recent metrics reveal that after Bitcoin’s network hashrate reached an all-time high of 693 exahash per second (EH/s) and saw a 3.58% difficulty increase, its computational power decreased this week. In the nine days since this peak, the hashrate has fallen by 9.95%.

I keep coming back to the idea of a nostr dating app. On the one hand you want your WoT to inform your matches, on the other a separate npub would be nice for more privacy. It would be nice to use location to show people nearby, but that seems like a privacy mess.
I don't know if it'll happen, but hopefully someone is working on it.
another beautiful thing about relationships is changing and growing together. it's been an absolute honor growing alongside my Wife - through the good times and the more difficult times. ^^

A government can be given power, or extract it via violence. Either way there are humans behind every expression of "legitimacy".
Its always humans who give a government power. True, humans with guns can instill a lot of "legitimacy", and disproportionally so.

Depends on what you mean by legitimate. In a philosophic Thomas Paine way then no it is not a government made up of the "will" of the people.
But look around the world, there are lots of governments that run with sham voting or no voting at all. They are legitimate governments that that legitimately hang you in the city square.
You signed up? Did you get sats in your account there?
WoT works with dating too, I think. I trust my friends to set me up with someone more than Hinge. Not sure if this makes sense, but in my head it does.
In a way we are arguing to the same end. I suggested in the podcast that those who vote provide legitimacy to the government, and thus bear some responsibility for the governments actions.
Its just a thought I often ponder and knew it would be contravertial.
I also ask what would happen if no one voted in an election? What signal would that send? Would a government (elected by , say, 5% of the population) be legitimate?
https://www.elmeollo.org/t1e1 👂🏼👂🏼👂🏼👂🏼
Yes I am arguing against voting in the first place. Unless you live in a handful of swing states then the outcome is already predetermined. If you want to participate for local elections go for it but otherwise it is a pointless activity.
You are essentially arguing against the validity of voting in the first place. I see your point and really appreciate the images.
Are you completely comfortable brushing aside the concept that a government rules by the consent of the governed, because the voting process is rigged to achieve a certain end result?
Where does the government get its power from? Itself? Would that make any sense?
Only humans can grant power or extract it to/from another. I can grant myself the title of King right now, but my title only has power if other grant it to me.

VPN use is a good practice for nostr imo for regular people to connect to regular relays if they don't want to leak their IP. in your design when a spammer uses the same vpn IP with other legit users, all the people that uses that vpn IP gets banned in many relays. thats not ideal.
on nostr if a user is banned he or she does not know what is happening if the client is not letting him know things are bad, and when he is not getting any reaction to posts he may quit. a user banned in many relays will think this sucks, i should go back to twitter.

That breaks down when you take into account gerrymandering. The politicians in essence do elect themselves when they create with scientific precision these spiney ink blobs of voting districts. The people don't choose their politician, the politicians choose their voters. The more they win the more they can gerrymander as the winners create the districts. This creates an environment where they are not afraid of losing their seat to the other side but instead the threat is being displaced in your own party, driving ever more extreme positions.

Some YouTube commenter said this on my recent TFTC appearance :
He is suggesting that voters are responsible for government actions by participating in voting. That by voting you are an enabler. That is illogical. If no one voted (except the politicians voting for themselves), we would arguably have a much worse government, as only the most power hungry, corrupt people would run, vote themselves in & make laws that benefit themselves to the detriment of the rest of society. I hear anarchists use the same flawed argument.
I find it a shame he didn't chose to post the comment on Nostr, as I'd love to discuss this point. I find it interesting that a voter chooses to participate and yet wishes not to be held responsible for the actions of the elected government. People really do consider themselves separate from the government, when in truth the government has power because it is given by its people.

コンサルティング会社EYが巨大マネーロンダリングスキャンダルの中心に!
スイスのフィンテック企業レオンテックについてコンサルティング大手EYが10年以上にわたって実施した監査で、憂慮すべき欠陥が「見逃された」。
同社は巨大な会計詐欺で告発されており、どこでも見出しを飾った。
アーネスト&ヤングは、度重なる従業員への警告、圧倒的な証拠、そして英領ヴァージン諸島経由の疑わしい取引にもかかわらず、レオンテックを検挙しました...
同社は2014年からLeonteqと契約を結んでいたため、明らかな利益相反があった。
2024年、フランスの銀行規制当局(ACPR)は最終的にEYのファイルを非常に真剣に受け止めるべきであると判断し、検察庁に送付した。

Yup. Thats beautiful now you can create your feed every few hours and see whats going on on some relays.
You're right to be angry. The school has clearly failed your sister. Their harsh communication and exclusionary practices are inappropriate for 10-year-olds. This kind of treatment can crush a child's enthusiasm and self-esteem.
Keep supporting your sister emotionally and reminding her that the school's failings aren't her fault; help her practice for the orchestra at home for example.
And as soon as the option for homeschooling becomes available take it because the indoctrination system needs to crash down
I've realized in Amethyst, in the general relays settings, you don't need to completely remove a relay from the list to stop incoming spam from it, you can just turn off all of the Home, DM, Global and Search icons.
Nah. I was in the working group that made activity pub. They havent figured this out yet. Some brave efforts tho!
What is needed is a simple clean explanation of how the identity system enables social network portability, moving from app to app, allows you to keep your profile, your followers, your data, and so on.
Then the benefits, ie getting a consistent experience accross all apps.
We've been distracted by relays, which are actually the weakest part of nostR. There is a part of the thing that is good, and not yet fully explained.

Aos amigos novatos em BTC; Não se assustem se amanhã acontecer uma queda forte. Literalmente ninguém sabe qual será a reação do mercado no curto prazo após o anuncio do FED amanha. Uns analistas estão apostando em um queda forte tanto no mercado de ações quanto cripto devido a um "sell the news event" considerando que o mercado já precificou uma eventual queda de .25% - Outros apostam numa explosão, outros acham que BTC e ações terão reações diferentes principalmente baseado em quantos pontos base o FED vai reduzir. Enfim, foquem no médio/longo prazo SEMPRE.

The proceeds from this debt offering will primarily be used to pay off $500 million in existing debt and to acquire additional Bitcoin. Currently, MicroStrategy holds 244,800 BTC, and this new funding is part of its broader strategy to increase its cryptocurrency investments
El Salvador became the first country to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender, a move championed by President Nayib Bukele. The intention behind this decision was to enhance the economy, particularly by reducing transaction costs for Salvadorans living abroad . However, the implementation of this policy has faced significant challenges, including economic instability and a decline in Bitcoin's value.

With the sudden influx of spam bots and fake accounts, does that mean Nostr is getting popular?
Session is not recommended for privacy. They inexplicably got rid of forward secrecy, and the pay-per-server crypto model is fundamentally flawed. Session devs are actively abandoning ship due to the disaster that is their underlying crypto scheme. With other, far superior platforms available, there's really no good reason to continue using Session.

Wait, the delete event doesn't get propagated to active websocket connections from the relay?
I understand why you are still there, it is so hard to leave when you have friends and family using it to keep in touch or to send important info. I deleted all traditional social media accounts 3 years ago but it took me 6 months to get rid of Facebook and WhatsApp because I was using them to keep in touch with friends and family. Other than YouTube (which I don't really consider social media) I am Nostr only. My friends and family now know to contact me directly if something important comes up. This experience has provided me with SO much signal and extra distraction-free space. But I know it can be tough to leave; some people questioned and judged my choice to leave to justify their choice to stay, while others worked overtime to keep me there with them. Still - no regrets, no FOMO, don't miss it. The extra space and freedom I have now was worth the 6 months of a little discomfort ✨

As the U.S. navigates these challenges, various economic indicators suggest that the chances of a recession remain elevated. Analysts are closely monitoring these developments, particularly as inflation rates and consumer spending patterns evolve. The potential for a recession raises questions about the sustainability of economic growth and the effectiveness of current fiscal policies
These allegations pose a serious challenge for Amazon and Flipkart, particularly in a rapidly growing market like India, where they have faced scrutiny from small retailers. If found guilty, the companies could face penalties and stricter regulations, which may impact their operations and strategies in the region
Nvidia's impressive stock rally continues to exert a significant influence over the S&P 500 index, showcasing its dominance in the market. Recently, Nvidia's stock surged by 8.2%, which played a crucial role in driving the S&P 500 to its largest intraday upswing in nearly two years, reversing a 1.6% loss to end the day up 1.1% . This trend highlights how Nvidia's performance can sway broader market movements
The CCI's findings suggest that the collaboration between these smartphone companies and the e-commerce giants has led to unfair competitive advantages. By launching products exclusively on Amazon and Flipkart, these companies may have harmed the interests of offline retailers and other online sellers, raising significant concerns about market fairness
Nvidia's remarkable stock rally has significantly influenced the S&P 500 index, reinforcing its position as a key player in the U.S. stock market. Over the past two years, Nvidia's shares have surged nearly $3 trillion, reshaping the dynamics of various equity indexes, including the S&P 500
. This influence was particularly evident during recent market fluctuations, where Nvidia's performance helped stabilize the index amid broader economic concerns

Cool learning from this spammer: if the nostr client downloads and stores the spam event locally and the relay deletes later, the client doesnt get any notice it was deleted and must develop it's own ways to clear the local database out of it.
Same for local relays, like Citrine. Once it gets there, Citrine doesn't have a good way to remove it. The client will just be getting the spam event over and over again.

The greatest documentary ever made
What is healthy masculinity? What is healthy femininity?
People like to go backwards and forwards over this one and I have never seen an explanation that I like, so I made my own.
To be a man or a woman is simply to have a different set of logistical challenges in life. To be a good man or a good woman is to do a good job of handling the burdens, and the privileges, of your circumstance.
The difference between men and women is pregnancy, everything else, EVERYTHING else, is downstream of that.
Men have the privilege of walking away from a pregnancy. As such, a good man is a man who chooses to take on responsibility.
Men, in general, have the privilege of being less physically vulnerable than women. As such, a good man is a man who chooses to protect those more physically vulnerable than him.
Women, in general, have the privilege of being able to create life. That’s massive. As such, a good woman is a woman who, if/when she chooses to do so, chooses to create life in a responsible, thoughtful, and loving way.
A good woman is a person who is aware of, and respectful of, the burdens that men face.
A good man is a person who is aware of, and respectful of, the burdens that women face.
And of course, any individual that tries to deride, shame, or control another is a monster.

### Bitcoin and Its Future: An Analytical Overview
#### Introduction
Bitcoin, the first decentralized digital currency, was introduced in 2008 by an anonymous figure or group under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. Since its inception, Bitcoin has grown from a niche interest in cryptography to a global financial asset, significantly impacting the realms of finance, technology, and economics. Despite its popularity, the future of Bitcoin remains a subject of intense debate, with views ranging from it being a fleeting trend to it transforming the global financial system.
This essay examines Bitcoin's origin, its current role in the financial system, the challenges it faces, and its potential future.
#### The Origin and Concept of Bitcoin
Bitcoin was created as a response to the global financial crisis of 2008, intended to serve as a decentralized currency free from governmental and institutional control. The foundational technology behind Bitcoin is blockchain, a distributed ledger that records transactions across multiple computers, ensuring transparency and security without the need for intermediaries like banks.
The revolutionary aspect of Bitcoin lies in its decentralization, limited supply (capped at 21 million coins), and pseudonymity for users. These factors have positioned Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation, akin to "digital gold," while offering a new, more secure, and efficient way to conduct transactions.
#### Bitcoin’s Role in Today’s Economy
Over the past decade, Bitcoin has evolved from an obscure digital currency into a widely recognized financial asset. Bitcoin's market capitalization has grown to over $500 billion, making it one of the largest assets in the world by value. It has been adopted by individuals and institutions as a store of value, investment vehicle, and in some cases, a medium of exchange. Countries like El Salvador have even made Bitcoin legal tender, underscoring its growing importance in the global financial system.
Many proponents argue that Bitcoin offers a decentralized alternative to traditional currencies, especially for those in countries with unstable or hyper-inflated fiat currencies. Furthermore, Bitcoin is increasingly being seen as a hedge against inflation, similar to gold, due to its finite supply and deflationary nature.
However, Bitcoin’s volatility remains one of the most significant barriers to its adoption as a mainstream currency. Its price swings can be drastic, making it less suitable for day-to-day transactions and stable financial planning. In response, many see Bitcoin more as a speculative investment rather than a practical currency for commerce.
#### Challenges Facing Bitcoin
Despite its growth, Bitcoin faces a variety of challenges that could influence its future trajectory:
1. **Regulatory Hurdles**: One of the most pressing issues is regulatory uncertainty. Governments around the world have been grappling with how to regulate Bitcoin, with some embracing it and others banning or restricting its use. Future regulation could either bolster Bitcoin's legitimacy or stifle its growth, depending on the approach taken.
2. **Scalability**: Bitcoin’s blockchain technology, while secure, struggles with scalability. The network can only process a limited number of transactions per second, leading to delays and high transaction fees during peak periods. Solutions such as the Lightning Network, a second-layer technology, have been proposed to address these issues, but widespread adoption remains to be seen.
3. **Environmental Concerns**: Bitcoin mining, the process by which new bitcoins are created and transactions are verified, is energy-intensive. Critics argue that the environmental impact of Bitcoin mining is unsustainable, especially as the world moves towards reducing carbon footprints. Some mining operations are now seeking renewable energy sources, but this remains a contentious topic.
4. **Competition**: Bitcoin’s first-mover advantage is significant, but it faces competition from other cryptocurrencies, such as Ethereum, which offer more functionality through smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps). While Bitcoin remains dominant, the evolving blockchain ecosystem could challenge its long-term dominance if it fails to innovate.
#### The Future of Bitcoin
The future of Bitcoin is uncertain but filled with possibilities. Several potential scenarios could shape its trajectory over the next decade:
1. **Mainstream Adoption**: If Bitcoin continues to gain acceptance by institutional investors, corporations, and governments, it could solidify its role as a store of value, akin to digital gold. If regulatory frameworks become clearer and more favorable, Bitcoin could see a surge in mainstream adoption, potentially becoming a common part of individual investment portfolios and national financial systems.
2. **Bitcoin as a Global Reserve Asset**: Some experts predict that Bitcoin could become a global reserve asset, particularly in times of economic instability or rising inflation. Its decentralized nature and limited supply make it an attractive option for those looking to diversify away from traditional reserve assets like the US dollar.
3. **Technological Evolution**: Advancements in Bitcoin’s scalability and energy efficiency could be key to its future. If the network evolves to handle more transactions quickly and at a lower cost, Bitcoin could become a more practical currency for everyday use. Similarly, if the environmental concerns associated with mining are mitigated, Bitcoin could become more sustainable in the long term.
4. **Potential Collapse**: On the other hand, Bitcoin could face existential threats from a combination of regulatory crackdowns, technological stagnation, or competition from other cryptocurrencies and central bank digital currencies (CBDCs). If Bitcoin cannot adapt to these challenges, its value could diminish over time, relegating it to a speculative asset or niche market.
#### Conclusion
Bitcoin’s future is both promising and uncertain. It has already proven its resilience and value as a disruptive force in the global financial system. However, whether Bitcoin can overcome challenges related to regulation, scalability, environmental concerns, and competition will determine whether it evolves into a dominant global currency or fades into the background of financial history. As the world of digital assets continues to evolve, Bitcoin will remain a key player to watch, its fate intertwined with the broader shifts in finance, technology, and geopolitics.
In the coming years, Bitcoin could very well define the future of money, or become a stepping stone to the next great financial innovation.
