 Yes, #1 is trust / censorship resistance. Unfortunately privacy is a “nice to have”. 

 I love it bc every american precoiner fuck i chat with does not see the value in this - more corn for those who do, which largely entails those who VERY EASILY DO BC THEY ARE BEING FUCKED UP THE BUTTHOLE ✊ 

 ghey 

 Now to break up those mining pools. 

 could argue decentralization is the value prop and censorship resistance is a byproduct 🤷‍♂️ 

 Just thinking that over - maybe we don’t care decentralization as a technical matter. We just care about censorship resistance? And decentralization is the best way we have right now to do that. 

 yea I mean I guess I can't argue against what you think is the value prop.  value is personal at the end of the day.  

 Oh interesting. It sounds like for you, technical decentralization is an end in itself? Maybe I’m just sleeping on why I should feel the same, why is it for you?

One way I’m imagining you answering is you just like the vibe of everyone working together to build something. I totally agree with that. 

 I might be incorrectly using the term "value prop", to be honest. 

For me personally, the hard money aspects are equally as important as the censorship resistance. And both of those things only exist because it's decentralized.  In my mind decentralization is like the cornerstone that holds the whole thing up which is why I called it the value prop. but that's probably incorrect usage  

 The cornerstone. Love it. Yeah I agree. 🫂 

 Could argue they are actually the same abstract concept 

 Like how can there be decentralisation without censorship resistance?
And how can you call something censorship resistant when it’s centralised?

 CLEVER POST - TRUE FOR BOTH NOSTR AND BITCOIN 

 having the software, hardware and the knowledge to transact in a sovereign manner is more important than the amount you hold

 I remember your discussion with @ODELL he asked if freedom is possible without the right to stay anonymous. I remember you answered a quick and certain “No”. By same logic do you think Bitcoin need better privacy to be able to censorship resistant or you think this two cases are completely irrelevant from each other? 

 I like it.  

 You need scarcity/programmed supply for the censorship resistance to matter though. Who cares if you can send value to someone w/o permission if that value can be obliterated in an instant. 

 That’s pretty philosophical!

 Yes.  It's the "Fuck You" in "Fuck You Money" 

 Fuck you IS the real money now ;-) 

 That is the base layer technology that removes political actors.  When you can’t censor you must live and work in a reality not as you want but as it truly exists. 

 I seriously do not understand how people don’t feel the urge upon this… it makes me so anxious while others simply do not care!! 

 What is your take on the Ocean mining pool? 

 Censorship resistance will be the value prop, and you will be happy 

 Did you change your mind? I remember you saying that the 21m cap is the most important value 

 agree. 
people are flinging shit to test vulnerabilities.
I suppose in that light there is value in monkey jpeg 

 currently considering that thought-of-the-day - will get back to you... 

 Money for your enemies. 

 Literally all that matters. 

Take it away and the system is useless.  

 Not censorship resistant, not Bitcoin. 

Censorship resistant, could be Bitcoin. 

 So, high fees because of spam is good for bitcoin? As a pleb trying to move some sats around, I disagree.
