Oddbean new post about login | logout YES. BOARD MEMBERS ARE EXPECTED TO RECUSE THEMSELVES FROM SPECIFIC APPLICATIONS IF THERE IS A CONFLICT. I HAVE RECUSED MYSELF FROM MULTIPLE. https://opensats.org/transparency https://opensats.org/docs/conflict.pdf
Thank you. And you can understand/see why some would take issue, or be concerned, with your relationship with both opensats and ten31’s investment in Primal?
I FEEL LIKE WE ARE TALKING IN CIRCLES NOW. APPRECIATE THE CONCERN. THERE ARE INTENTIONAL CHECKS AND BALANCES IN PLACE. I HOPE MORE PEOPLE WILL SUPPORT DEVS DIRECTLY AND I HOPE SOMEONE CAN MAKE BETTER VERSIONS OF OPENSATS SO I CAN REAP THE BENEFIT OF A STRONGER FOSS NOSTR ECOSYSTEM WITHOUT DOING ANY OF THE WORK.
Might be a good idea to make a post once a week featuring an bitcoin/nostr contributor that people might want to support. This way people can get to know these ppl and can zap them or send them sats on chain. Fixes the “I don’t know who to support” barrier.
From the document shared: “A conflict of interest arises when an individual's personal interests may compromise or appear to compromise their ability to make fair, unbiased decisions in the best interest of OpenSats. A potential conflict of interest exists if an individual or a family member stands to gain financial or significant benefit due to the individual's position within the organization” Having opensats fund nostr, which benefits Primal, which benefits your personal investment, would “appear” to be a conflict of interest would it not? Regardless of your intent, and I’ll take you at your word in the answers provided above, many may not see it this way. I think this is what has led to this discussion and questions.
