I don't think you need to understand all the nerdy talk or even participate in it. In fact, I often say technology is best when it fades into the background. That said, we need to grow Nostr to more conversations.

As for the stores, I've sold and bought more stuff via Nostr over the past year than I have in my previous 3 years with Bitcoin.

I've sold phones, I've sold crafts, I've bought shirts, steaks, and artwork all because of Nostr via Nostr marketplaces or my own.

My friend @John52, the friend that I told you about, that I setup his online store, sells lots of merchandise for bitcoin.

@isolabell.art 🎨 sells artwork for bitcoin.

People do want to part with their bitcoin, you just have to find the right people and audience.

As for safety, I'm sorry that you can't truly block here, but please remember that if you blocked someone on Twitter, they would just create a new account to view your content. Blocks don't work. Hopefully devs can build more tools for you to give you more control and more privacy. 

 so when is your online course how to set up a shop coming out? 

 I just use the Shopstr.store integration on Amethyst now. Proof of Ink uses Woocommerce and BTCPay server. I bet videos in those already exist.

 I'm too stupid to implement BTC pay server myself. I've tried the vids, it still escapes me.
Shopify is also dropping BTC pay server er API. Will others refuse to allow it to function as well?

I've also tried woo. It also escapes me how to use it.

Your reach and list sold items for you Derek, not just the products.

 More eyes equals more buys.
None of the stores even leverage NOSTR to sell and zapervise. The stores could have a page and bot that randomly boost listings and leave room for the sellers to zap people for sharing listings.

 

 I tried to help with visibility by sharing your art that I bought as I found it was awesome. 

 Also have you tried plebeian.market or shopstr.store those are both Nostr based. 

 You did help with that and thank you. 

 Also let me know if you want anymore of the collection. Lol 

 model the shorts, model the shorts!  

 Lol. The men's shorts so not fit me at all. 

 Hot 

 the demon has spoken 

 Blocks do work..you just have never needed one to work Derek.
 

 Could you help me understand how they do work? For example, I've had someone block me on Twitter and I just opened up Twitter in a different browser session and viewed the tweet. I did this recently to screenshot the Moscow Time origin tweet since that bozo blocked me. 

 Where can you buy steaks???
