holy shit we have a lot of work to do here if you can easily fall for fake accounts

some of yall act like it’s your first day on the internet and know nothing about google image searches


You mean there's not a bunch of hot Asians who genuinely care how my trade is going?  Man what a harsh reality to wake up to.


maaan some people are actually facing this harsh reality at this very moment which is so scary for me to think they made it this far and still so gullible


The overall gullibility of people never ceases to amaze me.


They understand bitcoin but not this!? howwwww


You mean the person who contacted me about my cars extended warranty was LYING when she said she cared??

The bitch….!


I would argue that fewer people understand Bitcoin than we would like to believe....


it’s crazy seeing them be pushed by individuals who people trust and believe in


Beware freaks https://image.nostr.build/1766a2326370e7e276b627fd91322cae39e9976c3b7c2a17d2b6297caf56b7b8.jpg


How’s your trade going?


Wait what? 😂


It’s news to me too 😂😏


Aww maan shiiii


it’s starting to look like that might be spot on


WoT will be broken before it even starts if people are this incredibly gullible


What'd I miss?


Sometimes I still think back and remember Amanda Wolf used to be so cool and funny and one of like 2 green z voices on Nostr. She was calling herself the CEO of Nostr and everyone went along with it like ha. No one said everyone is CEO on Nostr🤷🏽 Then she disappeared. Then she came back and was funny again for like a week.

Then I told her that mustache rides aren't free and rates vary based on what you look like.

Then the very next day she started pimping aipepe coin and everyone ran her off Nostr🤷🏽

I started her villain era.


all these people break it if they give credibility to fake accounts bc they have tons of people that will trust them instead of verifying https://i.nostr.build/Z50dE.jpg https://i.nostr.build/GeXqW.jpg https://i.nostr.build/dwzQY.jpg https://i.nostr.build/O4850.jpg


Horrible! Send help!


Is this you Sleepy ?


her pump & dump scheme was to fund her mustache rides!?

this too shall go down on the #NostrHistory books 📚


Dont follow me , I buy low and cry high


#KnowYourWorth

Rides ain't free ladies🤷🏽


this is not the sleepy you are looking for

https://media1.tenor.com/m/ZHrj-ppleXkAAAAC/star-wars.gif


My quest is to find the One


We shall cry high together 🫂💨


Who are you talking about?


Lol wait, you know girls on nostr?

Prices triple during shark week🤷🏽


#DrizzleDrizzle or whatever the fuck


Anyone who follows, reposts, replies to and interacts with fake accounts get us further away from a working WoT.

Example: if my following count is 100 and 50 of my following follows a fake account and interact with it and puts it on my feed for me to see every day, how likely is it for that fake npubs WoT to be high enough for me to blindly trust it


😂 https://i.nostr.build/eZA6q.jpg


And people are flabbergasted when I tell them I don't trust WoT.

The whole point of all of this is to "don't trust, verify." WoT is the opposite of that and really kind of dumb, IMO.


Ass, gas, or grass,  no one rides for free.


this is gold, this too shall go into #NostrHistory books 📚 for generations to come


Free airdrop check your dm if interested 🤣


Is that the new nostr coin ? 😂


at this point I’m afraid to ask
https://m.primal.net/IJYL.jpg


Speak of the devil 😂😂😂😂 https://i.nostr.build/vGD56.jpg


Oh shit , you guys do make me laugh 💜😂 love it 🥰


🤣🤣🤣 nostr:note1cqvs2zeaf0yqd8nu5e20rd2e6s79ks53wfh7spplmq7wwaxnvjpscdvcvw


My WoT is solid. trust me bruh!


The hehe gets me 😂


"she" was a funny and cute "girl" that fit in extremely well. Then out of nowhere she stated talking about shitcoins and trying to do pump and dumps. It was very weird and very obvious.


Right?
A good long con🤷🏽


WoT is only as good as your web. People should remember that


nostr:nevent1qqs97z2avrcsdxs7nq8p820k2n9mqtlt73529trn2z9w8akcyz3jpmspr3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumt4w35ku7thv9kxcet59e3k7mgzyrc0kvw3sy9fl9wl85tclnt8eg9snpu66y0gdz09d93vmqulhr4dgqcyqqqqqqg57fx2r

But how do you verify that?

I don't think you do honestly🤷🏽

New accounts can be real people or not. You never know and You're not going to go verify a person who was Born yesterday with 1 follow who is their mom 🤷🏽

Instead you just gotta be mindful of your money.

Did I zap Amanda Wolf? No I don't think so. Could I have probably. Do I zap onyx? On the regular!

If she rugs and runs did I miss it on anything? Not really. I'll miss her 🤷🏽

But maybe that's just me. I don't have a lot of Bitcoin. I only started getting be l Bitcoin because of Nostr. So I guess I'm conservative with it. I zap notes that seem worth it to me and there's nothing beyond that.

If you rug. Then you earned that zap and I didn't miss it anyway I guess.

It's different when it's a company you're thinking it's bettering society or your standing in it. But really of your spending then You're spending right? The decision alone makes it not yours anymore?

Bottom line is no one except you really is real probably if you think about it🤷🏽
So every action you make is a calculated risk in some way.


And with that being said. Thank you everyone for throwing away a boatload of sats on me.

I'm sure your wallet misses them but maybe doesn't🤷🏽

You can look at it as me stealung from you. Or you investing in someone learning about Bitcoin🤷🏽

Either way mine! Thank you


WoT on nostr should make use of replaceable events so that people can correct their mistakes if they vouch for a profile and later discover they’ve been duped. Alternatively, if 10 people get duped and vouch for a bad actor but just one person discovers it’s a bad actor, you should be able to attest that you’ve discovered this is a bad actor and crank up your confidence in your attestation so it carries more weight. This is why trust attestations and influence scores need a field for confidence.


I’d politely disagree my fren, one easy way of verifying nostr:npub12z8jsett3k6rv9fa2guau5p540qr2xuvjzkr8e432mglafjt99sqkw9zmx is real is by reaching out to her on social media accounts where her digital footprint extends years, IG & twitter.. I did this myself before I interacted with her, and I tend to do this with many other profiles asking for them to their reply on those socials to a dm or to add their nostr profile to their linktree links they have on those legacy social media profiles.

One way of finding those profiles is if they’re using the same name on here as they were in their legacy social medias (good sign) then a google search of their username is all you need to find those accounts (IG,Twitter,etc), if not you can use google image search to drop in a picture they have here on nostr to see if you find a trace of it on the internet, most likely you’ll get a hit on 3/10 pictures, sometimes you won’t get any hits if they’re ai generated, then in that case you need a trained eye which not many posses. But they are so obvious if you spend more than an hour on the internet every single day of your life.


Follow and mute lists are already replaceable. 1984s are also useful.


my bad onyx didn’t mean to tag you 🤦♂


I am flabbergasted that this is even a conversation thread 🤦🏻♂


If half of the people you follow interact with an account maybe it’s because it’s valuable or because half your follows are bots or retarded. “Fake” might be too subjective a label in this case.

whatisreal.gif


I AM REAL


lol 😂


actually lemme explain

most of my following are men as is most of our current community on nostr and most technology enthusiast at large, that’s my following, now introduce into the equation a fake profile which is a profile of a person that does not exist, is not real, yes the picture is might be real but there’s 50+ different pictures of different girls attached to one nostr identity making that user what I like to call a fake profile, my following isn’t necessary retarded or bots, they are simply of human nature gullible & men that can think well with their heads but when it comes to boobies n a pretty face one head takes charge.

Hope that makes some sense n brings clarity to the subject at hand lol


will that be in your keynote speech?


I KNOW IVE SEEN YOUR FACE ON FACETIME 🤣


but yeah half my following isn’t like this maybe 1/4 of it is


Thank you for confirming I’m not a robot 🤖 🙏🫂💜☺


I MISS UR FACE


No problem that’s what the Nostr CEO hired me for! 🫂🫂🫂💜


O RLLY https://i.nostr.build/zdMXZ.jpg


Lawd have mercy 😂 🤦🏽♂


Am I real?


Yup

I wonder if people would want a feature that alerts them if they’re following someone who has been reported or muted above some threshold number of times, so they can review and check if it was a careless follow

otoh we wouldn’t want a system that could cause a positive feedback loop and result in an innocent account getting piled-on

Just a thought


Her WoT score  on Coracle is 25 for me and the friend of hers you post is a 2. As a reference,  your score is 315. It's working as a pretty good good indicator for me.


The reason WoT works is because it happens at the margins.

Which means that if my social network wants to “pill on” on reporting someone, say because they want to cancel some Alex Jones character, they are free to do so and my tooling could reflect that my social circle has ostracized that npub.

That wouldn’t have an effect on other parts of the social graph or the network at large or to other algorithms and tools.

So yeah, I think it would be useful if tooling would report/flag accounts the user follows that their graph has indicated is suspicious.


Real enough to buy my content. 😛

JOKES 🙃


That’s not ur face 🤔🙄👁🤣🐸?


i need go mess around with coracle n see the WoT algo they’ve got, so generally what is a low score and what’s a high score ?


this is ma face 💅 https://i.nostr.build/mlgKQ.png


Bots can do that. Proves nothing 😉


but can they send her back a cum tribute ? I thought so.


Got me there.


That’s subjective and also depends how many people you follow. Here’s the algo.

https://i.nostr.build/9KkQ.png


Wot is WoT?


Me too….


il me manque pure merveille d'acteur de ce rôle..merci


Far too young


Mmm cum tributes 🤤

You guys stop turning me on! 🥵


Nice I like that mute lists are taken into account


WoT - I read "World of Tanks" 😂


You guys suck, whoever zapped that. #gfy
