COPA coming to Samourai’s defence is what I expect to see announced next. This is a historic case that will determine the future of Bitcoin.

The high stakes Samourai case is no different to Bernstein v. United States, and requires a final, definitive answer to the fundamental (already answered) question, “What is the true nature of all cryptographic operations taking place in computers?”.

And Bitcoin is simply math being performed in computers, and it is literally nothing more than that. The same arguments for Bernstein, and Phil Zimmerman’s case (http://www.skypoint.com/members/gimonca/philzima.html) apply to Samourai, and the same defences should work if The Constitution hasn’t changed. And it hasn’t.

If COPA do not rise to this challenge and defend the underdog, then the floodgates will be opened for the missapplication of money laws to all Bitcoin operations no matter what they are.

At the fundamental level, Bitcoin is speech. This is not “Semantics”; this is a plain statement of fact, established in law.

Everything you do in Bitcoin is protected speech. If you believe that this event applies only to “mixing”, you are mistaken.

The simple act of “moving” Bitcoin from one address you are known to control and are registered with, to another address that is an “unregistered Bitcoin address” could be construed as a criminal act in the future if COPA don’t kill this.

And I hope they kill it. With fire.

Bonjour 👋


I’ve always wanted to buy a house but I am renting it.
If my rent hasn’t changed for 8~10 years, and the purchasing value of the yen is being diluted, it does feel like I am winning.
Maybe in a near future, I will feel the urge to settle down or maybe I’ll keep on renting, traveling the world.

#asknostr


The blocksize war wasn't so much about the blocksize (or, even, scaling Bitcoin). It was really about who controls the consensus rules and how we upgrade the protocol.

For context, a bunch of startups raised tons of money between 2013 and 2016 based on ridiculous user sign-up projections and then we had a long and painful bear market and they were looking for scapegoats (the developpers that were "throttling the network") to justify the lack of growth. I am thinking here specifically of Coinbase, Bitpay and Blockchain.info.

The vibe I got is that they thought of Bitcoin itself as a corporation, that they were the equivalent of Bitcoin's board of directors because they represented the interest of VC investors, and thus they were entitled to decision making power over the network.

I don't doubt that a few people were genuine about scaling p2p e-cash (e.g. Roger Ver) but I suspect what really motivated them is that they believed control of the Bitcoin network would be an asset to their business interests, and lack of control was being used as an excuse to why their interests weren't being satisfied.

There was also a bunch of developers that I believe may have been afraid of losing their relevance (Gavin and Garzik specifically). Regardless of their intentions or psychology, it seemed clear to me that the consortium of vc-backed startups (particularly Bitpay, Coinbase, blockchain(.)info and Roger) had picked a team of developers they thought they could control and wanted to appoint them as a technical management team whicn would execute their strategy, and these guys were willing to step up for that role.

I was physically in the room when the CEO of Blockchain.info (with the very obvious support of Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong) announced that Bitcoin Core devs were being fired and would be replaced. This was after a couple days of failed discussions with other industry people. This was the moment when I realized what was really going on.

And finally, you had a Bitcoin mining giant (Bitmain) controlling both asic production and mining pools with a vested interest in promoting the idea that Bitcoin was a democracy and the way to vote was to buy hashing power. The main ideology being pushed here was that a formal governance mechanism of the protocol needed to be established and that hashrate was the only objective measure of who makes decisions.

The underlying big blocker ideology was that the chaos of spontaneous consensus of nodes is unpredictable, flimsy, bad for business. The absence of a formal governance process was seen as the root cause of the issue.

These companies really believed they could control the protocol, and controlling development of the protocol was seen as a very valuable asset to your company. I imagine they thought of themselves as the founders of a new consortium that would solidify itself into a permanent institution. The business interests would pay developers and set the goals, and the mining interests would ratify their decisions with hash power voting. That was their plan.

This became blatantly obvious when Bitmain used its refusal to activate segwit as leverage to get what it wanted (a blocksize increase and recognition of its hashpower as a vote mecanism) even though Bitmain iself acknowledged it was not really opposed segwit.

It was classic traditional politics: I'll give you segwit if you give me something in return.

This is the language the VC suits, investors and tech startup people understand and they were very happy to "negotiate" and find "consensus".

This eventually materialized into the New York Agreement, negotiated literally as a backroom deal during theConsensuss shitcoin conference. I was there and I refused to attend.

This (private) meeting consecrated the alliance of startups/investors and bitcoin mining interests in their appointment of a technical management committee. If you think this sounds like Jekyll Island, you're not alone.

They packaged segwit with a blocksize increase (Segwit2x) and decided to force a hard fork as a condition to "allow" us to have Segwit.

We know the rest of the story: we ended up activating anyway via UASF (or more precisely, the miners activated Segwit after they New York Agreement signatories became scared UASF would lead to a chain split which they were going to lose). And the blocksize increase was also abandoned shortly after when they realized their hard fork would cause a chain split and that they would not be able to claim that their new shitcoin is the real bitcoin.

All these people were subsequently were very pissed off they couldn't control the network, which they thought they were entitled to. Some ragequit, others created a bunch of shitcoins out of spite, Roger went on to spearhead BCH as the real Bitcoin, all these fools realized they might as well make some money off of it, everyone went all-in on the shitcoin casinos after that. The "small blockers" eventually went on to evolve into the Bitcoin Maximalists and cypherpunks that today tell you to run your own node and own your own keys.

The future will be planned, developed and run by men and women with guts who build and invest in companies that build the future. This has always been true. Open Source is not a cult or a hat you can wear while you gush on a “Podcast” or hide in a ghetto echo chamber.

History shows that Closed Source Software can dominate because the public has no interest in “Open Source”, and most advocates for it can’t put aside their pride to push companies that refuse to pander to infantilism and nonsense.

Winning in the market means embracing the rules of the market; that means promoting the good guys if you have a voice, not just Virtue Signalling to your audience. It means building companies and serving people, not just talking about it endlessly. Thankfully there are a handful of men and women who understand this and who are making the sacrifices required so that others can claim success for other people’s work.

This is true in Bitcoin obviously. No one cares that it is Open Source, and if a closed source copy comes to market that harms consumers, “CBDCs”, just as Micro$oft dominated, CDBCs will dominate…but don’t feel bad; fanboys will post on Nostr from their Windows laptops that “THE OPEN SAUCE REVOLUTION IS COMING!”.

People who refuse to promote Bitcoin companies but cheer on the names of the tools and philosophies and who refuse to invest in companies are the sort of person you should strive not to be, if you want to see the problems Bitcoin was written to fix get solved. And by the way, those problems can be solved by closed source tools; it’s a safe bet that most of the people drooling over Open Source and requiring it for their tools are not developers and can’t write “Hello World” in C.

SOMEBODY has to be realistic
SOMEBODY has to face the problems head on
SOMEBODY has to take things seriously
SOMEBODY has to stop playing to the peanut gallery

Make sure that somebody is YOU.

Why nostr:
- You own your identity
- Your speech stands on its own
- You can run your own everything
- You own and control your social graph
- You are free to say and do anything, but you are not free from consequences (non-repudiation of cryptographic signatures)
- You can proof realness via proof-of-work, either directly or indirectly
- Proof-of-work is what allows you to successfully combat bots, spam, and trolls, as it brings real cost to destructive actions
- Ownership and realness allows you to build and curate webs of trust, which allows for canonicality without central authority

 or
2) Would you keep it as a “valued collectible” ?

I'm really excited about this. Blossom is deceivingly simple, which is why it is powerful and why it has a chance of working.

What #nostr got right (and Bitcoin, for that matter) is that duplication is a feature, not a bug. "It takes advantage of the nature of information being easy to spread but hard to stifle," to quote Satoshi. De-duplication is a fools' errand, as it assumes a God's-eye-view. A global state is required to properly understand what to delete and what to keep. The second problem is of course indexing and discovery, which is indeed a hard problem if a global state is to be avoided. It's hard, but solvable. Especially if you already know what you're looking for, and especially especially if you have a common and purple-coloured discoverability layer.

Blossom is basically copying what nostr did for notes and applies it to arbitrary files. Instead of relays handling events, there's simple HTTP servers handling files. Like relays, servers are interchangeable as they share the same interface, encouraging duplication and redundancy. Instead of uploading something to a single server, you might upload it to five different servers. Popular and/or important files will be on many servers, which is how the online world works today already. Files that you need often might even be served by a #blossom server that is geographically close to you, just like we now have local cache relays packaged with some clients (or that you can self-host on your home server).

In the best case, Blossom will organically mirror what YouTube et al's content delivery networks already do well today, which is to provide file hosting that is high in availability and proximity. The neat thing about it all is that you can provide monetary incentives as it is nostr-native, and you get web-of-trust characteristics for free, as you can use only your servers, or those who are trusted by your friends, etc. And in the future, we'll probably have paid servers that whitelist npubs, just like we have paid relays now.

So why is all of that awesome? Well, here's the thing: as the user, you actually don't care where a file is hosted; you just care about the file itself. The current iteration of image (and other) hosts is incredibly stupid. Images are uploaded, downloaded, and re-uploaded without end, often with massive loss-of-quality as the same image is compressed and re-compressed a hundred times. It's always the same image, or at least it *should* be. With Blossom, it actually is.

Gone are the days of finding a thing and uploading again. You just need the hash, and the thing will appear. You could even insert images directly in notes with something like a blossom:ef1c26172f55017c9d9d6afa7cf22605b237b0fe92425e81e3b5e24d46c95448 and each client can choose how (HTTP, torrent, I2P, etc.) and where (public servers, private servers, etc.) to retrieve it from.

But wait, there's more. Remember the monetary incentives we talked about? It is what allows for the emergence of a proverbial "assassination market" for files: you provide the hash, along with a bounty of 21k sats to anyone who can provide the file most readily. Servers could provide cryptographic proof that they have the file, and you could escrow the money until delivery is done and you verify the file on your side. The building blocks are already there, we just need to put them together in the right way.

Blossom is one of the most exciting projects that came out of the first nostr:npub1s0veng2gvfwr62acrxhnqexq76sj6ldg3a5t935jy8e6w3shr5vsnwrmq5 cohort, aka #SEC-01. I'll have more to say about all the other amazing #SovEng projects that came out of the discussions and collaborations we had, but now I'll have to go and upload some files.

I see funny people around me.


Unfortunately, I don’t see a massive wave of adoption here in Japan.
As far as I’ve seen, people are heavily invested in “web3”, stocks, RE.
There are Bitcoin owners but they usually like diversification.


Currently, the overall sentiment is that inflation is slowly rising.
Unions have requested to get a pay hike, most of the big companies agreed, signaling that we might be entering a period of stagflation.
Now, the BOJ can’t save the currency AND the bond market.
The yen has crashed, but who knows what’s to come.
There’s a great video by Prof St Onge about it on Utube.

“VOTE FOR BITCOIN

The post below by @MacroScope17 is excellent. Let me extend his point one step further: the real election is BTC vs USD, the primaries have already started across the world, and every ballot counts. So make sure to vote early and often. Here's why this is more than a metaphor.

1) THEY CAN'T FAKE THE PRICE OF BITCOIN
First, the USD/BTC exchange rate is the one financial indicator that DC can’t fake. Remember the mortgage-backed securities that were supposedly rated AAA? And the devalued bonds that got magically revalued at 100 cents on the dollar by BTFP? All of those are stats within the Fed's video game, so they can be rewritten at will...but the Fed can't print more BTC. So they can't fake the Bitcoin price.

2) THEY CAN'T BLOCK THE EXIT TO BITCOIN
Since they can't fake the price of Bitcoin, the only thing the tradfi system could do is try to block the exit from dollars to Bitcoin. Which is why the SEC fought against ETF access for ten years. They finally lost on Aug 29, 2023. The three judges on the Grayscale case were Neomi Rao, Harry Edwards, and — yes — Sri Srinivasan (it's a common surname!). I'm not sure if even those august magistrates yet understand that their decision may end up being among the most important rulings in history.

3) THEY CAN'T STOP THE LEDGER OF BITCOIN
Wait — why could this random case actually be among the most important decisions of all time? Because unlike dollars in bank accounts, or stocks on brokerage accounts, or even real estate in blue states...Bitcoin exists on a ledger that the federal government does not control. So if more value is allowed to flow to that ledger, that's value that Keynesians can't freeze, seize, inflate, or confiscate. Not trivially, at least. Not without going house-to-house and beating it out of you, like their cousins the Communists did. So this court decision is important because it opened the floodgates, allowing value to flow towards the Bitcoin ledger — and away from DC's control.

4) THEY CAN'T STOP THE INCENTIVES OF BITCOIN
And every day that Bitcoin is available to Wall Street is a day that millions more gets invested in Bitcoin. Bitcoin's incentives were strong enough to recruit not just BlackRock, but Franklin Templeton, Fidelity, and a critical mass of major firms. It is literally the best-performing asset of all time, and one of the best of this year. So, not having it in your portfolio in Q1 2024 will make you a loser. It remains to be seen whether the Vanguard CEO was fired over his opposition to Bitcoin, but it is a distinct possibility. The incentive alignment is incredible: even the Fed can't pay everyone as much as Bitcoin can, because the more they print, the more BTC goes up.

5) THEY CAN'T STOP THE SIGNAL OF BITCOIN
So, every single day the regime is now bleeding support to Bitcoin. And so Bitcoin is rising. Its vertical rise signals that something is wrong  in the legacy economy. It's a blazing fire alarm, an orange BitSignal glowing in the sky telling you that the smart money no longer has full faith and confidence in fiat.

That's why this is the true election. Everyone gets a vote, worldwide. Whether they're a US citizen doesn't matter, because billions are under the thumb of the dollar. They know their vote counts because they can count how many BTC they got in their vote. They know Satoshi actually keeps his campaign promises, unlike the GOP or DNC. And they know the BTC price signal is a vote count no regime can easily rig.

It's similar to the plebiscites at the end of the USSR. Back then, truly free speech and free elections finally allowed people to vote against the Communists. Now, truly free markets and free internet allow you to vote against the Keynesians.

6) THEY CAN'T DO QE IN THE PRESENCE OF BTC
The reason the smart money is moving to Bitcoin is that it suspects the money is gone, that the US cannot pay its debts in real terms, that the shell game is soon to stop, and that it’s time to get out before Powell’s “soft landing” crashes the plane.

And in the presence of Bitcoin, if the Fed runs the same playbook they did in 2008, it'll have the opposite effect. Back then, everyone was in USD-linked assets because there was no alternative. So the cost of QE was spread across unsuspecting billions worldwide, and everyone was diluted to pay for DEI mortgages.

Today, Bitcoin holders see it coming. So any big print like 2008 will boomerang on fiat holders. The more fiat you hold, the more of your net worth will be diluted away to pay the unpayable debts of this failed state. Everyone will be expropriated to the extent they trust the US government.

7) THEY MAY USE FORCE LOCALLY AGAINST BTC
Remember how the media flipped from attacking social media as unimportant to attacking social media because it was too important? That may come for Bitcoin.

Because we already know that a president without Twitter isn't really president. Soon a government without Bitcoin won't really be a government. It'll be like an old government without gold; it won't be able to pay for things. And the thing is, lack of money is even more important than lack of media. So expect the delayed reaction to Bitcoin's rise to be...frantic.

I wouldn't want to live in a blue state then, because the Keynesians will whip up hatred against Bitcoiners as their Communist predecessors did against kulaks. They'll call hodlers hoarders, they'll denounce them publicly, and things will get extremely nasty.

Just visualize the same BLM/antifa/Hamas mobs that have been burning buildings and blocking roads for the better part of a decade, except this time with the support of blue-controlled police and military. If that sounds unrealistic, remember that's what literally hundreds of millions of people endured in the 20th century under communism. This time, however, the farthest left regime in the world is in DC — not overseas — and when it runs out of money, it will run after yours.

So if you stay in a blue state, I hope you can shoot like Rittenhouse. Many millions of people have already moved from blue states to red states (or abroad) because of crimes, syringes, and feces — and it might be good to join them sooner rather than later.

8) THEY CAN'T USE FORCE GLOBALLY AGAINST BTC
Here's the good news. While Canada and much of Western Europe may end up following DC's lead, there will probably be enough purple states, red states, and foreign states — enough places run by genuine liberals, centrists, conservatives, and libertarians — that DC won't be able to seize all the BTC.  This regime is losing to the *Houthis*, so it likely can't take everybody at once.

9) YES, THERE ARE MANY COUNTERARGUMENTS
I already hear you. There are many counterarguments to the scenario I just raised.

- Isn't all the ETF Bitcoin custodial?
- Aren't all Bitcoin holders known to the state?
- Doesn't Bitcoin have limited onchain scalability?
- Isn't Bitcoin limited in terms of its privacy?
- Can't Big Tech surveil everyone?
- What about China, and AI, and so on?

And so on and so forth. There are probably 20 more FAQs of this nature, and it's worth a follow-up post. But the short answer is: sure, there are many possible scenarios where the regime still wins, but as you think through the chess match it is also now possible that they lose.

For example: will the regime have the cooperation of Wall Street in an attempted seizure? How many onchain transactions do you actually need to convey a global price signal? And won't there be many states like El Salvador and likely Texas/Florida/Hungary/etc that flip to Bitcoin? The fundamental question is whether the bad people behind the Fed can outsmart the good people in Bitcoin. And thus far, the Network has outpaced the State.

10) THIS IS THE REAL ELECTION
So: that's why BTC vs USD is the real election. It's more important than GOP vs DNC. It's an election where one candidate is *un*controlled opposition. It's an election where the whole world legitimately has the franchise, because the whole world is diluted by the dollar. It's an election where the world can deprecate the 20th century centralized state, and reverse a century of Keynesianism and Communism.

Polling has begun.
Go vote early and often.”

好きな事。


In 1999, waitress Tonda Dickerson was tipped a lottery ticket and won $10,000,000. Her colleagues then sued her for their share. Then she was sued by the man who tipped her the ticket.

Later, she was kidnapped by her ex-husband and had to shoot him in the chest. Finally, she went to court against the IRS.

Morale of the story:
Don’t wait tables.

How? Well.. NUTS! Magic nuts at that.

1. user creates npub -> creates your nuts address
2. UI displays that user has a nuts address. They can get zapped RIGHT AWAY. That's right - everyone can get zapped IMMEDIATELY! Forget 4% address in profile bullshit.. 100% adoption!!
3. User can change their address to an LN one of course.. or to other cashu address in settings. Upon modifying a field or detected LN address, the UI changes the visual to show its an LN address or it's been modified. Why the change? Well, so people don't go zapping large amounts into the void if the new user never claims their nuts.

At this point, we don't even need cashu websites, because you can do everything in the client UI.

What about centralization?
OK. Rotate trusted mints. It's no different than what Primal has going now as far as I know. You are trusting someone for a bit and have the option to transfer your sats out. Same with nuts. Concerned about rugs? Swap your address to an LN one. Or.. choose another mint, or add your own if you're a pro.

This would bring nostr to 100% sats accessibility.

What about lost sats? F'em! Thank you for your contribution to bitcoin my humble sirs and ladies. The tradeoff of global(nostr) zap adoption is massively better IMO.

Pro tip: ALWAY READ CAREFULLY the contract you are being served.
It might reserve some bad surprises and traps.
Do not fall for people telling you : “It’s ok, we’ll deal with that later !”
ALWAYS read it and eventually ask for advices, because once signed, there’s no going back.

Hi Marko,
Thanks for your quick response !

My message might have lacked some context:
On Damus, when I type the word Kiss, the emoji appears.
On Plebstr, I type milk and it appears as well.
But, it doesn't appear on Primal.
Maybe  something with my Phone ?

So there's this progression. First you see something like Cashu when you say, "Oh, it's a custodial lightning wallet with better privacy for users and no accounts." And then you realize, "Oh, I can use this to pay someone who is offline. I just send them a string and that’s the ecash note.” And then you realize, "Oh, this works over long range radio with very low bandwidth. And then you realize, oh, if we trust the same mint, we can actually use it to route  lightning payments without open channels to the mint (the channel is the trust). And we can use it as a lightning wallet for ourselves. And then you can say, oh, we can create these community mints for “islands” that are not connected to the internet.

And then you realize, "Oh, there can be more than one Uncle Jim, and we don't have to trust this one person. We can have shared custody, and this thing has better privacy." And suddenly you realize you are were not expecting anything like this at all when you first saw it, when it began. It has completely different implications than what I was expecting previously.

It's the same with Nostr. It's like, "Oh, this is not a very good protocol. It depends on a few relays and you can’t even store images on it and who would use it." And it's cumbersome. Now there are blogging platforms and communities and marketplaces and AI communicating over it. And there's this innovation that no one was expecting when they first started. It was like thinking about the protocol and trying to judge it by its design, but its use (and implications) is discovered, not designed. Same way you can send a calendar invite over email, or do encrypted group chats over it (DeltaChat).

It’s interesting to see, how we use technologies that in theory should not have worked, but in practice, they do. Bitcoin is one of them. The probability of its success was very low.

A friend of mine said in a podcast with me that Bitcoin’s risk adjusted value is actually better than a decade ago. Yes, you could have bought cheap Bitcoin. But its success back then was very improbable. Now you are buying the asset of the parallel financial system, back then, it was a membership card in a club of geeks. After several that have failed…


Once in a while, on a Sunday afternoon, I get to discover new places.
I then realize that beauty is all around us, if your eyes are wide open.

Believe me or not, but I think I've just created a HW on a Lilygo ESP32 thanks to nostr:npub1a8jzweysxa9qmtmht874736aalm0lwdsl306nrys9d05ktlrhw3qcr5pj4 video and nostr:npub16uvg7mx3l97z8phfesl8rxj2vf82vn82hp9daala0egj45ynr8mstn0vkc.

Alright, hear me out!
What if one were to position himself in front of the immigration office and hand out business cards with a "Join us on Nostr!" and a QR code with 150¥ worth of Sats.
That would speed up adoption, no ?
might, would... (probably).
Well, here it is:

A decentralized #Bitcoin is a Bitcoin where miners decide what goes in blocks, not pools.

OCEAN's ultimate goal is to make this a reality, and today we take one step closer to our vision of decentralized block template construction.

Available immediately, OCEAN is offering 𝗺𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗯𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸 𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝘀, giving miners control over what blocks they are mining.

The three options are:

1) OCEAN Recommended (most real financial transactions and least spam)
2) Bitcoin Core with the “Ordisrespector” spam filter
3) Unmodified Bitcoin Core (same as other pools with fewest financial transactions and most spam)

OCEAN will continue its 0% promotional pool fee for options 1 & 2 while there will be a competitive pool fee of 2% for option 3.

Our fees are structured to incentivize miners to make choices that benefit the Bitcoin network in the long term.

Suggestions for more templates? Let us know at mining@ocean.xyz.

What would you do if you wanted to reconnect with people with whom you had a strong bond and incentives to “work” together (in the last decade) ?
I feel that I may be pushing too much, wishing for something to happen, especially when I must read between the lines of others behaviors.

Maybe I should just let go, move on and write a new chapter.
Damn!
Am I being naive, stubborn and obtuse to hopefully resurrect the fire from embers ?

#asknostr


Bare Multisig Outputs
-----------------------

Blocks are getting filled with bare multisig outputs and it's an obvious troll from people that hate Bitcoin. Let me explain.

Multisig currently can be done in many ways, but before p2sh (BIP0013), the only way to do multisig was through putting the many pubkeys on-chain. As ECDSA doesn't really let you aggregate keys, outputs had to specify something like "3-of-5 of these pubkeys." The normal UTXOs have the following number of bytes:

p2pkh:25
p2sh:23
p2wpkh:22
p2wsh:34
p2tr:34

By contrast the n in the k-of-n bare multisig determines the number of bytes and it's 5 + 34 * n (my math might be off, but around there). So for 3-of-5, it's upwards of 170 bytes. But that's using compressed keys. For uncompressed keys, you it's 5 + 66 * n or 335 bytes+, and worse, you can put in illegitimate uncompressed keys (keys that are provably have no private key) to add data to the chain

Why does this matter? Because these bytes stay in the UTXO set, which is what Bitcoin software optimizes for because that's how you validate that a transaction is a not double spend and satisfies the conditions of the smart contract that locked it.

What's worse, if the pubkeys are unspendable (uncompressed keys that are not real points on the secp256k1 curve), then they'll *never* be pruned. So the UTXO set grows larger and requires more resources for your typical node runner.

Interestingly, this was how the whitepaper was embedded into the Bitcoin blockchain by putting pieces of the whitepaper pdf in 64 byte chunks through uncompressed pubkeys. Luke's Eligius pool was one of the first to ban such transactions because they were clearly bloating not just the blockchain, but the UTXO set.

That's what these trolls are doing. They're adding to the UTXO set that's not easily prunable, though now, I'm guessing some people will add pruning for UTXOs with multisig outputs that don't have any legitimate keys.


I’ll go with olive oil, thanks.


Munich, yeah !

Hi 👋


Absolutely !
How are things going on your side, since the announcement ?


2023 is 90.41% complete


Un billet de 0 euros avec une illustration du Titanic, c’est poétique !


Today, I had a conversation with a friend's acquaintance who expressed a desire to "do something about social media, to create something that is ours." She was unfamiliar with Nostr and only vaguely aware of Mastodon, though she had heard of Bluesky and Threads.

She represents the ideal target audience for Nostr. Once I explained our project, her excitement was palpable. Although initially skeptical about Bitcoin, she showed interest in an economic model not reliant on advertising and was open to exploring alternative models.

Several key points emerged from our discussion. Firstly, the ease of joining and locating acquaintances on Nostr is crucial. For instance, the process of installing TestFlight, then navigating back to nos.social to click a link and install Nostr via TestFlight, proved challenging. Her attempt to Google Nostr nearly led her astray. nostr:npub1a8jzweysxa9qmtmht874736aalm0lwdsl306nrys9d05ktlrhw3qcr5pj4 i think, this underscores the need for someone with tech marketing/communications expertise to overhaul nostr.com. The current site should be repositioned as developer.nostr.com.

We must simplify the process of finding and connecting with known contacts on Nostr. It's essential to communicate the value proposition of Nostr to new users, whether they learn about it through friends or media. Our focus shouldn't be on creating more content for Bitcoin enthusiasts, as there's already a plethora of information available for those familiar with wallet operations.

Another aspect that stood out was Nostr's multi-app nature. Nostr isn't just Damus, Nos, Amethyst, or Habla.news. It's a platform where various apps can operate using the same data, contacts, and services, all under the user's control. For those with a developer mindset, the sheer breadth of projects within Nostr demonstrates the vibrancy and scale of our endeavor. Projecting this magnitude is crucial for attracting users who are deciding where to invest their time.

I believe we could benefit from explainer videos that highlight why Nostr is both important and interesting. During our conversation, I showcased various apps: Primal for a web social feed, Habla and Yakihonne for longer-form blogging, Flockstr for events, Wherostr for geolocation, and Highlighter for layering different functionalities. These examples illustrate the diversity and versatility of our platform.

I didn't delve into Nostr nests, marketplaces, Wavlake, Streamstr, and more, but it's clear there's much to explore.

This conversation has led me to believe that we should proactively share the Nostr story, positioning it as the future of social networking. This approach will also help us differentiate from platforms like Threads, Pixelfed, Mastodon, and Bluesky. While these platforms are based on open protocols, they operate as single-app, vertical silos.

Our unique offering is the unified 'login' across diverse apps, granting users not just control over their algorithms but their entire app experience. They can even use multiple apps simultaneously.

The impact of a single Thai TikTok video in attracting a Thai user community to Nostr exemplifies the power of targeted storytelling. We should harness similar strategies to broaden our reach and influence. Talking about how this is a whole new way of social, not just one app.


It’s a bit hard to find here but…
