 The reactions to locking 1BTC to my nsec reveals you folks are not bullish enough on Nostr. 
 Clearly. This idea is also why I think it makes sense to having a honeypot hot wallet on a computer. 
 No it's not this... I don't you can lock things that are not there😜 
 Also that the bitcoiners here do not actually have a whole lot of bitcoin 😅 
 I'm very bullish for nostr. 
I want to lock in 100USD to my nsec and only allow other profiles who have 100USD locked into to transact with me and if they unlock it then can no longer transact with me. It would be almost like a small savings account.
This would cut down on spam as it would be too costly to run bot farms. 

 
 this is the direction we're going  
 I like the idea but I don't like keeping egs in one basket. 
If I understand this correctly. Out nsec will unlock 🔓 our Bitcoin on nostr? 

I rather keep these things separate tbh.  
 But without subkeys? Maybe that's just naive of me. 
 would be very bullish if that's the pot for zaps
and not the pot for thieves
but I guess priorities matters...  
 You are so right! Feel free to lock 1BTC to my nsec too! 
 What is the point of doing this though? 
 Vitor, qual cliente você utiliza no navegador? 
 Coracle has been my go to client. 
 Can you tell me why auto-translate just started working again today? 
 No idea. Did you update recently?  
 No, I figured it was something you did 
 No, we haven't changed anything. 🤔 
 What about my idea for simply signing your npub with a BTC wallet that has a nontrivial amount in it and use that as a simple mechanism for replacing keys?
