Yep. We will make all the things clean and pure concepts "money", "algorithms", even "censorship" (as nostr has more censorship than legacy, but it is controlled by each user).
For the first time in social networks the science of algorithms and making them better will be crowd-sourced 🔥
Made new series on LNbits yt, celebrating the inspiring people/spaces in #bitcoin. I was lucky enough to visit AmityAge Bitcoin Center Roatan.
Dusan and peers are doing incredible work educating and making a space for bitcoiners

I hope not. That country was a literal warzone, so we couldnt project the processes we hold dear in our stable countries. The country is functional now and safe for residents, the change is dramatic. The real test is if he can step down via fair elections, which is usually when populist leaders who made radical change slip into being dictators.

I'm so honored. This means a lot coming from you. Thank you. If it wasn't the support and inspiration I had ftom you early on, none of the projects I work on now would have existed, truely. I owe you a lot, and am very much standing on shoulders of giants 🙌
Privileged take. People need stability, literally the core function of sound money. Most people just can't afford wild price swings, that's it, nothing to do with a lack of understanding game theory. Good MoE is stable, bitcoin is not stable. Build stablecoins on bitcoin that can easily be swapped in/out, and hope one day enough liquidity and commodity use cases exist that bitcoin becomes stable and can be used raw as MoE.
Meet @sambonzuki (clearly the next Jack Mallers), as he talks me through all the hardware he builds using #lnbits #bitcoinSwitch. Sam is also CEO of @_gamertron_ making #bitcoin powered video games 🔥🤯

Beer is clearly the killer use case for #bitcoin. Chatted with Pieterjm from #BitcoinTaps, about their excellent bitcoin beer taps ðŸ», and how help #LNbits and #bitcoinSwitch helped them build.

I caught up with nostr:nprofile1qqsvfa085adgecmg84ffelcxx6zrn3ffu5jrc6cjtwng0zge3ptv43c82kf5d in BTCPrague to chat about all his great projects such as BTCmaps, and how LNbits made building that little bit easier 🔥

As well as replacing impossible captchas and passwords, there is no better solution for our post-real Internet and things like video deep fakes, than just signing with public key crypto.
The world will soon become very familiar with key pairs. It solves all the problems.
FOSS win! Thank you @MichaelAntonF for staking a bounty for improving the usermanager extension ðŸ™
Calling all #lnbits bounty hunters, this is a great one👇

Built an #LNbits extension and submitted to vetted-extensions in 1hr (despite being destroyed from week of #BTCPrague).
Also covered how you can charge for your extension. Build an LNbits extension in an afternoon and get paid 🎉😘
Filmed on location at the wonderful Paralleni Polis.

@BTCPrague was flipping epic ðŸ˜
Perfect balance of hacking, hanging and talks 👌.
Huuuge props to Matyas and team 🙌
Thanks for all the #nostr support as well. Idea batteries are fully charged, I can't wait to get home and start building â¤ï¸
So no Nip04 likes anytime soon. Could be flirty winks 😉

I think we can do better. A decentralised rating system is needed for the world, we certainly need for markets. Vlad Stan had the great proposal of weighted paid votes in a Merkel tree on bitcoin, best proposal I have heard so far.
They don't, like openstamps it's all hashed into one big transaction. The miner could make the Onchain transaction with the tree cheaper, but that just benefits whoever is running the rating server.
Thank you for your service sir 🫡, getting all those lovely atms to the people! ✊
You are an onboarding mastermind!
One day soon, when the whole world uses bitcoin and ditches the fiat crap, after every atm transaction users will be played:

Nostr can have best of network user effect and themed spaxes (like 2002 forums). I imagine a load of interest/topic-centric clients to emerge soon. Like the forums we had before gravity of generalised social media pulled in users. Client for Trump fans (flags and maga hat branded), clients for different breeds of dog, etc, etc. The developers could even add extra useful features for their specific user group users, or run relays for their users. Community leader/"influencer" types will shill their users to their clients.
