The problem with a company running a social media public square is that they have a lot of monetary incentives to comply with censorship or to sanitize things through deplatforming.

In current Twitter’s case, even though they are less reliant on advertising now, their primary owner has much bigger business interests in cars and rockets, so the incentive structure is one that points to Twitter complying with strongmen leaders’ censorship requests to ensure that those bigger car and rocket companies don’t get blocked out of those markets (eg Turkey or India). Even if he would prefer otherwise.

A lot of people don’t realize that Twitter used to fight international censorship attempts in various countries more, and under current leadership it’s *quicker* to comply with censorship in many cases, with less of a fight. Twitter’s current marketing angle is to be known as the free speech platform in the US, but then to quietly comply more readily than ever before for censorship requests in other places like Turkey or India.

That’s why Nostr is so important.

I’d feel a lot better about going into this fight over privacy with world governments if mining wasn’t so damn centralized. 😬


They want you to feel scared, they want you to feel the doom and gloom.

Get out of their framing, you are being gaslit.


Suriname 🇸🇷 Presidential Candidate
@MayaPar25
 proposes:
🚫 ZERO TAXES
💸 getting rid of the Surinamese Dollar
⚡ moving to a complete #Bitcoin Standard
👀 a pro-innovation regulatory environment that respects privacy

BULLISH on Suriname 🔥

“We have enough resources that we don't need to levy taxes... I honestly see no reason why we should maintain the SRD; it's inflated 50 to 60% annually… And I think with the amount of resources we have, the structure that we're modeling is basically that people will just be able to earn in satoshis and companies will just have their treasuries and sats. So you'll see your salary increasing in relation to every other fiat currency in the world.” — Maya Parbhoe on  nostr:npub10qrssqjsydd38j8mv7h27dq0ynpns3djgu88mhr7cr2qcqrgyezspkxqj8

Product testing, and feedback is not glamorous.

However, without becoming 1% more normie friendly each day, no one will ever get to experience the latest NIP, BIP, BLOP, BOOP, or encryption mechanism.

If you find something broken, take a screenshot, and tag a dev on nostr.

Tag me if you need help.

If it’s an issue affecting two or more nostr apps consider adding the #nostrability tag. nostr:note1848zy0danwg73zwegkhp8vvcf7ezml77w6yz2ax8myvyzhr0m83q8evsd5

I believe Bitcoin is intentionally transparent, for a number of reasons. One of those reasons is the anonymity set delta.

The smaller you are, the larger your anonymity set.

The larger you are, the smaller your anonymity set.

This makes it expensive for governments to hide their actions, but cheap for individuals.

Very few people understand #Bitcoin, even less people understand Bitcoin mining and even less people understand both and are willing to start a mining company.

This while the Bitcoin mining market is  trillions of dollars bigger than is currently addressed by existing mining companies.

It might make sense just to monetize some stranded energy in case it catches on.


Just casually making #bitcoin history on the daily.

Hello beautiful 🫂💜 you’ve been missed


this quote reminds me of chess and is one of the reasons chess is such a beautiful game.

in chess, when you move a piece, you’re attacking new squares but also losing influence over the squares you were attacking before. you see?

chess is the art of seeing yourself forward. the calculation muscle that’s constantly evaluating the gain and loss to every move.

in life we’re constantly doing this by the way. taking risk, all day every day. more than you think.

you need to go to a higher up floor. do you want to take the elevator or the stairs? the stairs are probably safer but you lose time and energy. the elevator is easier but is a man made machine with potential dangerous risks. ok well are we going to floor 2 or floor 100? am i healthy or do i have health issues? you evaluate; you choose.

there are no moves in both chess and life with only gain and no loss. for this reason, both chess and life are nothing you can master or finish. it’s an art you develop as the artist

Sending it back 🫂💜


As you fall down the rabbit hole, you come to understand that #Bitcoin is connected to almost everything because our actions are emergent from the system we live in and measure from.

Which is paradoxically why it is so hard for you to understand points of view from people outside of it, or just starting their learning that perceive it as a narrow thing within their current world view.

My speech at #Bitcoin Atlantis was just released where I dive into this phenomena deeper and become emotional with what it means for all of us.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PxlHCO1nSzM


i think we both need a hug today 🫂💜


On this day 13 years ago yesterday, Gavin Andresen, one of the first bitcoin developers, told Satoshi Nakamoto that he was going to the CIA to give a presentation on #Bitcoin.

After this Satoshi disappeared, no doubt a smart guy.

Keep calm and HODL #Bitcoin.

Everyone seems to be overreacting to the Samourai arrests, the FBI PSA, and Phoenix leaving the US. Here's my attempt to break it down.

Samourai

You have to unpack all of the different elements. Could this be a state attack on self-custody and privacy? Maybe. Probably not.

There are a few components here that need to be evaluated on their own.

1⃣ Samourai was a self-custodial wallet
2⃣ Samourai was a mixer
3⃣ Samourai was providing normal people with privacy
4⃣ Samourai were knowingly marketing the service to criminals and flaunting that fact

Reading the charges, it seems like #4 is pretty cut and dry for this case. Their getting arrested for #4, doesn't automatically mean #1, #2, #3 are under siege as well. If Samourai was a taco stand laundering money and bragging about it, I'm sure they would be taken down too.

They may be accused of running a money transmitter now, but that may or may not stick. We'll find out in the trial.

All that said, we should always be vigilant to attempts to erode privacy and the ability to self-custody. It just does not seem that this fight is *that* fight.

FBI PSA

Seems pretty normal that the FBI would advise people to use compliant services, and the entire announcement seems to revolve around potential disruptions due to Samourai being taken down, and potentially others in the future. Given they took action, they have to post some bulletin about it.

Remember that when people lose funds or have funds stolen from them, they do go to the FBI for help. From their point of view, the best thing for people to do is use compliant services where they can potentially help.

The announcement concludes saying that services that purposely break the law will be investigated - so again we go back to #4 above. This is nothing new, and self-custody is not being criminalized.

Phoenix Leaving

As nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m said, it's feels completely unnecessary. Phoenix obviously is not a MSB and they are not doing anything illegal. In my view, their exit from the US app stores is a complete overreaction.

Keep Calm

Could "they" come after wallets, developers, mixers, nodes, LSPs, sidechains, eCash, VPNs, encryption, etc? It's totally possible. But if you're not breaking the law, you have nothing to worry about.

To my knowledge, there is still rule of law in the US, property rights are still protected, and privacy is enshrined in the Bill of Rights (nostr:npub1trr5r2nrpsk6xkjk5a7p6pfcryyt6yzsflwjmz6r7uj7lfkjxxtq78hdpu).

It would be very difficult to change the law or stretch it to incriminate these things because it's all just information and software, which is speech. Some will try. But as they are trying, #Bitcoin is becoming more and more mainstream and integral to the world's financial system.

#Bitcoin is freedom technology and it will continue on.

Go outside this weekend and think about why you're here.

So can privacy & transparency coexist on Nostr?


good question 🤔 i bet the two concepts overlap in a way where it may be possible to coexist.
I guess it’s about individualism and collectivism which I think can be stringed together


HRF’s Bitcoin Development Fund has made several grants to JoinMarket projects and contributors

Now would be a *great* time to apply for funding to do this kind of work!

Feel free to DM me if you need the link to apply


The entire developed world tax apparatus that was built in the 20th century and extends into the 21st century depends on ubiquitous financial surveillance.

They are not going to give that up without a fight. I have been saying at a number of conferences and podcasts that privacy is the main battleground for the next decade.

Back in the 19th century and before, money was mostly private. There were plenty of dictators but there was no major method of surveilling all transactions. Therefore things like broad income taxes were untenable to enforce.

But in the 20th century as money increasingly moved around at the speed of light, people needed bank accounts to keep up. It wasn’t all forced on them; they chose it. And those bank accounts were centralized, surveillable, and ruggable.

This allowed authorities to switch to income taxes, which require ubiquitous financial surveillance to work. And ultimately it allowed them to switch to fiat currency altogether.

Now in the 21st century, Bitcoin and its various layers allow people to hold and move around money globally without permissioned banks. They can do so peer to peer, or they can do so with custodians and open layers, etc. Unlike the base layer of fiat, the base layer of bitcoin is permissionless.

But this represents a threat to the entire current system of taxation and financial control. If bitcoin and particularly various private methods on top of it were to be adopted at massive scale, the entire tax structure and other things would need to reshape themselves around that reality. And so they won’t make it easy; they will try to criminalize financial privacy as much as possible while the network is still pretty small.

The only solutions are to 1) make privacy tech so ubiquitous that it can’t be isolated and can spread organically in a distributed way and 2) to apply legal pressure when possible so that governments sort of have to operate within the bounds of their own law, like the 1st and 4th amendments.


Privacy is normal and good.

There has been an effort among authorities to make “money laundering” and “financial privacy” the same thing. That is, the mere act of moving money privately itself becomes a crime. That’s not okay.

Money laundering is when money that is obtained through crime is concealed by obfuscating it with clean money. The actual crime is the initial non-financial crime (say, mob stuff), and historically money laundering involves manual activity to work with the criminals.

Now that open source tech can make certain transactions private, authorities increasingly equate all private money transfer with money laundering, even if the developer of the open source tech had no direct involvement with criminals. Authorities target them regardless, and sanction the technology itself. Financial privacy becomes synonymous with crime in their minds, and in the minds of the public.


Money used to be private by default.

Once it became widely surveilled in the 20th century, attempts to make money more private again were generally criminalized. nostr:note14csdgnum2xkte2d46n2ru6e30eshfvncldqf6vvnp88kj0xf5x3qfwsh7a

What I love about Nostr is that fact that there’s so many diverse people and characters.
It’s completely fine to agree to disagree, however..what I do not like is the ignorance and name calling/abuse that some people partake in order to flex their muscles.
I will not make any apologies for unfollowing or muting anyone that abuses any one of my Nostr friends over something that very well could be handled in a mature and respectful manner.
After all, I thought all bitcoiners were evolved and could have healthy decisions without this type of abuse.
Yes I know Nostr has freedom of speech and my freedom is to unfollow and mute people that behave in this manner towards my fellow Nostr friends.
Peace out ✌

good morning 🌞☕ https://image.nostr.build/58a29c7a40d608401be574940f0cca4f2a6914c84c7c87e279bb1fc64aa06f62.jpg


i think they do but read somewhere recently that it was going to increase to 9% or something. But not 💯 sure


I have watched a surprisingly small number of movies over the past few years, mainly because I have been so busy and also because not that many new movies have appealed to me.

On a set of recent flights I watched a bunch of movies in a row:

1) Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. It’s the prequel to the series and stars the character who later becomes a main villain in the series, so that is neat. Not bad actually. I found it pretty engaging even though the original Hunger Games series lost my interest somewhere around the second movie.

2) The Creator. Sci Fi military/drama/action movie about AI. It had a decent plot structure and theme, but overall was pretty “meh” and had some distracting plot holes.

3) Ferrari. A biopic about Enzo Ferrari during some of the harder years of his life. Great acting from Driver and Cruz. Somewhat underwhelming overall story, but solid film imo.

4) Wish. The first critically-panned Disney animated film in a long time. I was curious to see what was so bad about it. Imo the problem was not that it was truly bad per se but that it was aggressively mediocre. Songs felt kind of forced or out of place. The plot structure itself was pretty creative. There was hype from some conservatives around this movie being “woke” but I didn’t see that as being the case. It’s ironically about a bunch of people fighting for personal liberty and a smaller role for government, lol.

Looks like I was able to get this working again, sort of. It says I'm connected to 9-11 relays, but only shows that I have 100 followers (and even Jack only about 40, so it has to be a data gap), and very few notes on timelines (with obvious gaps even for hugely active accounts). Relay.damus.io never seems to pass me any data (0kb both up and down) to me, which j assume is due to my connection coming via Tor, but honestly I don't know. I'm connecting using Amethyst, if anybody sees this and has any ideas—what's the best, biggest relay for Tor users right now?

Secondly, and most importantly for anyone who sees this note, please make some noise to try and stop the passage of RISAA (the FISA 702 reauthorization) that's about to hit law as soon as this Friday. Please read about it and push it out on all of your socials, if you agree it's a problem. It's going to be hard to stop this thing, even with all hands.

People who like you will see that you are trying to be better than you were yesterday and appreciate you for it.

People who hate you will judge you for who you were yesterday.

One troubling thing about humanity is knowing that there will always be those who wish to judge you based on your past mistakes.

One uplifting thing about humanity is that there are many many more people who are interested in your growth and development.

Let’s say you overcame alcoholism.

It’s more rare than not to meet a person who says “once an alcoholic, always an alcoholic. You’ll never change”.

Most people will congratulate you on overcoming your challenge and wish you well in regards to your future.

The reason the negative outlier stands out is often because we speak to ourselves the same way.

We are our own worst critics.

And hearing an outside source validate our secret horrible thoughts about ourselves makes them seem even more true.

But they’re not.

Don’t give in to fear and self doubt.

Most people are rooting for you.

Give yourself permission to root for you too.

Nostr is not a fun place for influencoors because they have to work for it just like the plebs. Probably even harder, because they have to engage, which I understand can be a strange concept for many.

nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m's vision for NOSTR shouldn’t supersede all. Neither should nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6's. Protocols should have a way to take on a life of their own. The most amazing possibilities for NOSTR I don’t believe have been imagined yet. Build what you wish to see. If you’re not a dev contribute to devs building what you want to use. Also extend devs grace. Building takes time. They can’t starve or let their families starve in the meantime. If there’s something you envision that isn’t being built, learn to code, or hire a dev. Be a different kind of keyboard warrior. nostr:note1d5adc6qqafgj79qwcsh6fttvu6ce6pvm7ztcxtxurel6fsuv2wtq3zlqwf

Iran just sent drones at Israel, currently en route, so multiple countries in the region are closing airspace, announcing states of emergency, preparing airspace defense systems, etc.

Most financial markets are closed, so crypto is basically the only place with liquidity for the market to express its view on whether this will result in serious damage and geopolitical escalation.

Bitcoin sharply down from $66k to $62k on the headlines, most other cryptos down more. Paxos Gold (a gold-backed stablecoin) had a huge spike from $2400 to $3000 but it is coming down now. Leveraged liquidations can distort the initial magnitude here.

Sad day; hopefully calmer minds prevail and de-escalate.


More apps should strive for this and more consumers should demand it. https://image.nostr.build/b9b23cb06e5db05a12b502b64db393ebb19722a47ad170f5aa09fa1f935f83b8.jpg

No regrets


lmao wasn’t that a thing? 😂 can’t remember how it went down tho 😅


Not copper. Red.

I believe that Bitcoiners have a special relationship with the concept we refer to as "truth."

I'm not saying that we are more honest than others.

But we appreciate more than most others being able to verify the correctness of something.

For instance, we like the fact that everyone can verify the software code as well as each and every transaction.

Nothing is hidden.

Everything is in the open.

We value that we don't have to trust someone who says that "Everything is A-OK."

It's possible for everyone to check things out, without having to ask anyone for permission.

I have had the same fascination with the concept of truth as long as I can remember.

Like my father, I have also always been curious about how things work.

He had an amazing talent for understanding technologies.

My grandmother once told me a wonderful story from when he was a kid.

I think he was 12-13 years old.

He sat by the kitchen table and picked apart a mechanical sleep alarm clock, while he carefully studied how the pieces functioned together.

After he had taken it all apart, he patiently reassembled it.

It must have been very satisfactory for him to wind it up and hear the ticking.

The final test was the alarm bell.

"Ring ring ring!"

It worked perfectly.

My father had verified the truth about how the alarm clock worked.

In the 1980s he became a computer engineer.

I remember him sitting for hours in front of his PC, and how he used to fill up all empty spaces in the basement and his home office with all kinds of computer hardware.

He passed away much too early due to cancer in 2011.

Although I didn't inherit my father's understanding of  technology, I got the same passion for diving deep into things, into the very core, and for understanding how things worked.

Social subjects and books have been two of my main interests, which is something I have from my mother.

She has always questioned things, and I'm exactly the same.

I discovered at a very young age how important it is to accept the truth.

I went to kindergarten from I was about two or thee years old.

When I was four, I was moved out of the unit with the small kids and to the unit with the big kids.

Some of the older kids started bullying me.

They shouted:

“Rune has red hair, Rune has red hair.”

The people who worked there were unable to help me.

So, I found myself in a hopeless, prison-like situation.

I complained to my mother, and told her that I wouldn’t go there anymore.

She tried to comfort me, and said:

“It isn’t true what those kids say. You don't have red hair, it's copper brown, and it's beautiful."

The only problem was, this couldn't solve a damn thing with the bullying.

And of course, it didn't.

The day after, I went to the kindergarten as usual, and the bullies pushed on.

It's quite possible that I tried to yell back at them:

"It's not red, it's copper brown!"

If I did, it probably just made things worse, because it would be a confirmation to them that their bullying had the intended effect on me.

However, something must have clicked inside me that day.

When I came home, I met my mother in the entrance.

I ripped the beanie off my head, and shouted angrily to her:

“No, mama, look at this! It’s true - my hair is red - just see for yourself!"

When I came back to the kindergarten the next day, I had accepted my faith.

They had blond, brown or black hair.

My hair was red.

These were facts, nothing more.

They noticed that I suddenly was OK with it.

And then they lost all interest in bullying me.

Accepting the truth had made me impervious to their insults.

My mother told me this story many times, when I was a child, and also after I became a grown-up man.

She says she's convinced that it was a life-changing experience for me, and that it would shape my personality.

Looking back, I think I realized that ignoring the truth comes at a significant cost.

And just as important, I think the episode taught me that embracing the truth could set me free.

Today, it makes me sad to think back on the fact that my father and I often disagreed on many things.

We had very different ideas about the relationship between individuals and the state.

What started as civil conversations, too often ended in quarrels.

It felt like our opposing opinions on politics drove a wedge between us.

If he had lived today, he probably would have developed a fascination for how Bitcoin works.

He wouldn't have trusted Bitcoin, just because others said it's immutable.

I'm confident he would have picked apart every little piece of the technology, in an attempt to verify Bitcoin's promise.

Just like I try to do with the socio-economic aspects of it.

If my father had been alive today, I suspect Bitcoin would have brought us closer together.

He could have explained the technology for me, and I could have explained Bitcoin's socio-economic functions to him.

Possibly, he would have realized that I had been right when I challenged many of the things that the powers at be want us to believe.

It's just guessing, of course.

But it makes sense, because it seems to me that Bitcoin attracts truthseekers like a magnet.

And at the same time, Bitcoin forces us to search for the truth together, instead of quarrelling about the correctness of something that others have fed us with.

***

If you liked this piece, it would be great if you gave it a boost 🧡

whether you wanted

or lied to yourself
it doesn't matter.
now you have
anger and hate
the rewards
for failing to defend
your truth.
they are there for you
and... the pain...
all yours.
do not share it with others
do not blame them
do not hurt them
the only help
you can accept
is the one
that allows you
to process it all
independently.
only love crosses the line
between your and other realities.
make a mistake
anger, hate and pain
will come back
boomerang, energized
surf those waves
for thrills and ego joy
at your peril.

HRF is excited to announce the CISA Research Fellowship 🎉

Cross-Input Signature Aggregation (CISA) is a proposed upgrade to Bitcoin that could potentially enhance privacy and provide cost-savings for transactions

HRF is sponsoring a four-month research fellowship to help analyze the state and future of CISA

The product of the fellowship will be an industry paper that seeks to answer the following questions:

1) How could CISA improve Bitcoin privacy?
2) Exactly how much cost-savings could CISA provide across different types of transactions? This will include a comparison of full versus half aggregate implementations.
3) How meaningful might these cost savings be to different industry participants? Given historical precedent, could these cost savings make Taproot the default script type, as Native Segwit is today?
4) Could CISA, if adopted widely, reduce the effectiveness of chain analysis?
5) Could CISA pave the way for cheaper transactions in a high-fee environment?
6) Could CISA lower the minimum economically spendable account at a given fee rate?
7) Could CISA help exchanges by, for example, saving them money while they consolidate small UTXOs?
8) How does CISA compare to other aggregation strategies?
9) Are there any ways in which CISA could help upgrade or complement the Lightning Network, eCash, or existing CoinJoin mechanisms?
10) How might CISA protect the social and legal choice of Bitcoin users and businesses to CoinJoin, and the likelihood of more CoinJoin behavior, if users could state (if asked) that their decision was based on saving money, not simply seeking more privacy?
11) How would Bitcoin Core need to change to integrate CISA? Are there any known current improvement proposals?
12) How would SegWit need to change to integrate CISA?
13) Could CISA be packaged with (and might it be mutually beneficial with) any existing softfork convent proposals?
14) Would CISA have any impact on output destruction versus creation? How would implementation relate to the witness discount?
15) How problematic would the interactive nature of full aggregate CISA be? What strategies might be adopted to ameliorate this?
16) What would be the main downsides and risks of bringing CISA to Bitcoin?

If we can’t make a social media ecosystem where people feel safe enough to share then they’ll go somewhere else. It’s like a dark ally in a city without anyone doing public safety. You can walk down these back alleys but it’s risky.  If you’re strong and have guns you’re fine. Or if you’ve got a security guard. Or if you have a lot of social capital protecting you, most people won’t mess with you.

But on nostr we see folks who don’t have that power or protection be attacked with death threats for posting a selfie or doxxed for publishing an accurate content report. This kind of harassment silences speech. We need tools that let folks feel safe enough to share and build communities. Otherwise they’ll opt for the evil mall cop an corporate social media platforms because at least there is some safety in that authoritarianism.

Happy easter 🐣🌸


Happy Easter 🐣


love is the way
hate is a signal.
do not suffer
them pointlessly
but use them
to navigate your life
and end up
where you are
supposed to be.
kindness is the cure
for pain inflicted
and pain suffered
on the journey.
it happens
we all make mistakes
they are not the destiny
but fuel for entropy
a trail we leave
to honor the context
we exist in.
take it easy
take it slow
and pay attention.
it's all in your head
a mirage
you have to navigate through.
love is the way

This is my Guide to Embracing the sun in your life

Living in harmony with my body's natural rhythms has been a game-changer for me. If you're curious about adopting a circadian lifestyle, I've put together a little cheat sheet from my experience and research. This is complementary to my documentary about the sun - at the bottom of this you will find all the science backing everything up. It's all about aligning our daily life with the natural cycle of our internal clock. Here's why it's worth it and how you can do it:

Why Go Circadian?

- Sleep Like a Dream: Syncing with your body's clock means better, more restful sleep. It's a night and day difference, literally.
- Mood Magic: Feeling brighter and more stable, mood-wise. It's like natural therapy.
- Health Perks: Lower risks of the big nasties like obesity, heart disease Cancer and Neurological diseases. Plus, my energy levels are more consistent throughout the day.

How to Circadian Your Life
Step by Step

1. Morning Sunshine: I kickstart my day with sunlight. Just a quick 10-30 minute dose as soon as I wake up. It tells my brain, "Hey, it's go time!"
2. Sleep Rhythm: Hitting the pillow and waking up at the same time daily. Yes, weekends too. It's tough love for my sleep cycle. Especially with combining sleeping on the floor - my sleep hasn’t been that good in the last years. (Sleep Video: https://youtu.be/ICnLS1BbZ_w)
3. Light Lowdown: Cutting down on bright and white lights and screens before bedtime to let my melatonin do its thing.
4. Eat Smart: I aim to eat my biggest meal when the sun's shining brightest and dial down on late-night snacking.
5. Move It: Daytime is for moving; it keeps my internal clock tick-tocking correctly. Evening activities are more chill, like a leisurely stroll.
6. Bedroom Bliss: My bedroom is a cave – cool, dark, and quiet. Blackout curtains and a hint of white noise can work wonders.

Early Days Expectations

- Adjustment Time: Took me a few days to a few weeks to find my rhythm.
- Energy Boost: Once I adjusted, my daytime alertness and energy levels noticeably improved.
- Sleep Quirks: Initially, there were some hiccups with falling asleep, but they smoothed out.

Pro Tips

- Patience, Frens: It doesn't happen overnight. Give it time.
- Consistency Is Key: Stick to the routine as much as possible for the best results.
- Body Talk: Listening to my body helped me fine-tune things. If something felt off, I tweaked it.
- Be Kind to Yourself: It's okay to slip up now and then. Just hop back on the wagon.
- It's a Package Deal: Sleep, light, diet, and activity – it's all connected. Keeping everything in check makes a huge difference.

This journey has been enlightening for me, and I hope my little cheat sheet helps you find your rhythm too. Remember, it's about making small, sustainable changes that add up to a big impact on your well-being. Let's live our best circadian lives!

If you're interested in living such a lifestyle let me tell you, you're not alone. We're a community of like-minded health conscious people talking in group chats daily and have video calls to talk about our experiences and help each other living a healthier life.

What’s the documentary about?


It’s a process which takes time but it’s deliberate.
Yes, I understand you want to do it yourself.
I used to work a creative company where I got to scan film so they could make adjustments/edit them. They even had a development room which was really cool.


So cool! I extremely impressed when people shoot on film. Cuz it’s harder than shooting digital


I see. Again not too familiar, but am I right if I say that it’s harder to adjust tones etc when shooting on film?

Also, do you develop the film yourself?


Have you tried shooting on other types of film?
I’m not too familiar with shooting on film but tempted to try one day


GM Vanessa 🌸🌞 have a good day!


love it! 🤩 the lighting here is incredible. It almost look like it’s shot in speed 🤩

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


Thank you! You too 🌞

accurate


Few important things we need to have:
1. Key management
2. Search (discoverability)
3. Relay decentralization (gossip model, blastr) or something else 🤷♂
4. Low data mode on phones
What else I’m missing ? 🤔


I wanna go to CR now cuz this is beautiful


All of them added to my list 🫂 thank you

# Nostr is not decentralized nor censorship-resistant

Peter Todd has been [saying this](nostr:nevent1qqsq5zzu9ezhgq6es36jgg94wxsa2xh55p4tfa56yklsvjemsw7vj3cpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet5qy8hwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnddaksz9rhwden5te0dehhxarj9ehhsarj9ejx2aspzfmhxue69uhk7enxvd5xz6tw9ec82cspz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3vamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwdehhxarj9e3xzmnyqy28wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnwdaehgu3wvfnsz9nhwden5te0wfjkccte9ec8y6tdv9kzumn9wspzpn92tr3hexwgt0z7w4qz3fcch4ryshja8jeng453aj4c83646jxvxkyvs4) for a long time and all the time I've been thinking he is misunderstanding everything, but I guess a more charitable interpretation is that he is right.

Nostr _today_ is indeed centralized.

Yesterday I published two harmless notes with the exact same content at the same time. In two minutes the notes had a noticeable difference in responses:

![](https://blob.satellite.earth/53b3eec9ffaada20b7c27dee4fa7a935adedcc337b9332b619c782b030eb5226)

The top one was published to `wss://nostr.wine`, `wss://nos.lol`, `wss://pyramid.fiatjaf.com`. The second was published to the relay where I generally publish all my notes to, `wss://pyramid.fiatjaf.com`, and that is announced on my [NIP-05 file](https://fiatjaf.com/.well-known/nostr.json) and on my [NIP-65](https://nips.nostr.com/65) relay list.

A few minutes later I published that screenshot again in two identical notes to the same sets of relays, asking if people understood the implications. The difference in quantity of responses can still be seen today:

![](https://blob.satellite.earth/df993c3fb91eaeff461186248c54f39c2eca3505b68dac3dc9757c77e9373379)

These results are skewed now by the fact that the two notes got rebroadcasted to multiple relays after some time, but the fundamental point remains.

What happened was that a huge lot more of people saw the first note compared to the second, and if Nostr was really censorship-resistant that shouldn't have happened at all.

Some people implied in the comments, with an air of obviousness, that publishing the note to "more relays" should have predictably resulted in more replies, which, again, shouldn't be the case if Nostr is really censorship-resistant.

What happens is that most people who engaged with the note are _following me_, in the sense that they have instructed their clients to fetch my notes on their behalf and present them in the UI, and clients are failing to do that despite me making it clear in multiple ways that my notes are to be found on `wss://pyramid.fiatjaf.com`.

If we were talking not about me, but about some public figure that was being censored by the State and got banned (or shadowbanned) by the 3 biggest public relays, the sad reality would be that the person would immediately get his reach reduced to ~10% of what they had before. This is not at all unlike what happened to dozens of personalities that were banned from the corporate social media platforms and then moved to other platforms -- how many of their original followers switched to these other platforms? Probably some small percentage close to 10%. In that sense Nostr today is similar to what we had before.

Peter Todd is right that if the way Nostr works is that you just subscribe to a small set of relays and expect to get everything from them then it tends to get very centralized very fast, and this is the reality today.

Peter Todd is wrong that Nostr is _inherently_ centralized or that it needs a _protocol change_ to become what it has always purported to be. He is in fact wrong today, because what is written above is not valid for all clients of today, and if we [drive in the right direction](nostr:naddr1qqykycekxd3nxdpcvgq3zamnwvaz7tmxd9shg6npvchxxmmdqgsrhuxx8l9ex335q7he0f09aej04zpazpl0ne2cgukyawd24mayt8grqsqqqa2803ksy8) we can successfully make Peter Todd be more and more wrong as time passes, instead of the contrary.

I can see both sides. I guess if people are used to likes it’s harder to change the perceptive of not having it. It’s hard to unlearn something that is so ingrained in people’s daily way of interacting with social media


agree


I use Primal alongside Damus for four main reasons. 1. Because I can (Nostr keys for the win). 2. Primal Wallet for receiving zaps on both clients. 3. Binned my personal domain NIP-05 and replaced it with a custom one from Primal that matches my handle. 4. I like testing.

With the current state of LNURL wallets out there (and Apple Store stupidness), I think Damus is a little more confusing to set up for zapping (NWC is not immediately obvious), so Primal (client + wallet) is going to work for a lot of newcomers.


onlyzaps is great as you say but using multiple clients, like me, really doesn’t help. So yes I’m not helping


yes unfortunately


yeah true but I like onlyzaps in Damus. That’s what make it Damus


so strange. I can see but but not you?


i have it on mine


this is what i see https://image.nostr.build/aae42a4058240f21a0ebc851fac0cd2679ac79c8e811bf2664a996f66e46197b.jpg


i agree. it’s sad but if this is a way to onboard people into bitcoin I think it’s an alright start :) maybe nostr can be the platform where they learn more about bitcoin and make them realise


even better 🤗
I have mine, just in the colour black


this is too technical for me 😅 someone needs to show me what I don’t understand


now I’m just confused 🤔


i have it enable 🫣


I’m on only zap mode could be why


i indeed do


oh I’ve been living under a rock then cuz I didn’t know


but Damus is way faster and easier to post from. I rarely post from Primal. The only thing I use in Primal is the option to like and zap, & see what people have posted. I mostly use Damus for posting and replying as well as zapping at times


primal. cuz there are post out there that is good but maybe not worth zapping, if you know what I mean


but i prefer Damus in the sense that you can see notes and replies. makes it easier to find new people and see what’s going on. Just my preference tho


there is something about the «like button» in Primal that makes me come back as well as the fact that you have the option to zap. Cuz sometimes I like a post but might not want to zap, so it’s nice to have the option to do so


just as we talked about 🤗 love that you chose the original color


enjoy your day! 🤗

We're planning on purple pilling everyone at BTC Prague!

But, we can't do it without your help. The goal is to have a "Nostr Booth" inside BTC Prague's expo area. Developers want to have their own booth for their own client or micro-service at BTC Prague, but it's expensive. Therefore, we're looking to crowdfund the costs of the booth at the upcoming 3-day BTC Prague event. Developers can then use this shared community funded "Nostr Booth".

I love the architecture. St Louis is actually one of my dream destinations to visit


take part in the different convos here & check hashtags, and you will be surprised how many people you’ll find. Also posting helps a lot :)


It was amazing seeing you too. Yes, lets talk more next time


Congrats 🎉🫂 well deserved


Is there an easier way to find people to follow with similar interests? I’ve searched hashtags and only find a few people that post within them. #asknostr


watch out for what the people you follow comment on. it’s a great way to find new people and interesting topics :)

what client are you using?


congratulations!

Hi, welcome 👋 glad to have you here


I guess after a couple of weeks on Nostr some #introductions are in order.

Hi, my name is Tinita. I'm striving to live a mindful, happy life and would love to share my path with you.

This means insightful quotes, book recommendations and general observations about the #goodlife.

By the way I'm not the social media kind of girl, having shunned Facebook, IG, TikTok and the like. But the conversation between  nostr:npub1s5yq6wadwrxde4lhfs56gn64hwzuhnfa6r9mj476r5s4hkunzgzqrs6q7z and  nostr:npub16c0nh3dnadzqpm76uctf5hqhe2lny344zsmpm6feee9p5rdxaa9q586nvr convinced me to give Nostr a try. So far I'm loving it. 🧡

Further findings of fraud etc will come in the written judgment.

Welcome to law.

For all the Nostr newbies out there, I gave a talk a few weeks ago at #BitcoinAtlantis about Nostr's superpowers. I believe it's a great primer on a few of the main characteristics that set Nostr apart and give it a good chance of succeeding.

When viewing a thread on nostr or elsewhere do you:

1) look only for replies that mention you
2) read all replies
3) ??

Happy Birthday  nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg! 🎂

We launched Primal one year ago today, after about 1.5 months of coding. Check out my elaborate announcement below.

Its' been a crazy year; so much has happened. Both Nostr and Primal have a lot of momentum now. Next year is going to be insane.  We are super-grateful to be on this journey with all of you. 💜

nostr:note1jqn2ap8475x7rxql9xsk0pgfyu08x4ye646nvxx8rqekydclu9tqg93jwz


i want to see this happen. as you say, i think we can onboard a lot of young people


oh lol I had no idea.

Is the movie based on the book? or is it something completely different?

Final thought: I'm tempted to give more presentations like these, seeing what kind of impact this format can have. Maybe. One day.

Bringing my friend who have no knowledge of Bitcoin to Bitcoin Atlantis and getting her to see this presentation, gave her an understanding of Bitcoin not even I could give her


Hi, welcome


There are many, but here’s a few:

• Bitso (Mexico/Latam exchange)
• Ibex (Lightening infrastructure for Central America)
• Koibanx (creates the bitcoin rail onramps for banks in places like El Salvador)
• Galoy (Bitcoin beach wallet used in El Salvador)
• Paystand.org (philanthropic arm focused on bitcoin circular economies in Central/South America)


It’s a Kendrick day for me 🎧

anatomy is facinating. I found it very hard to learn cuz it’s all memorisation (not sure if that’s even a word). Will say it’s worth knowing some of it cuz it can save your life in a crisis


wait what?!? 👀


yes 😂 I know random. Learnt it in high school 😂


need more "random fact of the day" type of content on my feed

reply to this with some cool facts


The adult human skeleton have 206 bones.

a house somewhere remote where I could have lots of animals, grow most of my own food & a bitcoin circular economy nearby. I hope the whole world will get on the bitcoin standard before I die


Need nostr LinkedIn incl. Job board


good morning 🫡🌞


Normalize not assuming people are stupid and disinterested just because they don't read code.

I abandoned my photography challenge when planning for nostr:npub1h493d0qgwhu95s82zd9sxrt3ckn3ttgvaf04z02neckadxw5fkvqte4cwz got too intense…

I don’t remember the day either, so I’m just going to share a pics here and hope we all enjoy it 🥰 https://image.nostr.build/b1bcc185c9ef449623fef7b8e4924468537e7e88e9fa132cd2d96c8c18dc97fb.jpg


gm! the light composition here is really good 🤩
a tip for next time could be that your subject should be more what’s your background now. I think it will lift the photo quite a lot. In other words, there should be some sort of lines that lead the eye to your subject 💜

I love that you are doing this challenge. I’m learning a lot from you.


SPREAD THE WORD TO THOSE YOU CARE ABOUT. 🫡

Feeling better. Thank you for asking!

hahaha the biggest party trip 🥳

YouTube’d some photography tips to level up my photos with the phone. Here is what I learned (with some of what I knew already)

1. Underexpose images. Blown out photos are harder to correct.

2. Simplicity is best - remove distractions from the frame and focus on the subject

3. Use negative space - example: more sky in photo as opposed to equal ground / sky

4. Don’t take all photos at eye level. Try different levels (example: bring camera closer to a long straight road)

5. Use rule of thirds (don’t just position everything in the center (align to grid intersections) you can enable this in camera settings

6. (This one is from me) think about where you’ll share the image. For example, Damus does edge to edge vertical well on mobile so if you are going to share on a mobile client - take vertical photos.

7. Zoom in with telephoto lens on patterns.

8. (From me) take many photos instead of just one. Better chance of finding the right moment.

9. Edit in Lightroom to play with shadows, white balance and highlights.

10. Don’t face at the light source (eg. selfie in front of a window - turn around to let the window light hit your face)

If you’re a photographer; let me know if I messed anything up or missed some of your favorite tips!

Bitcoin can convert 95% of electrical energy into heat.

Let that sink in a moment.

Yesterday I had the privilege of witnessing the demos of the first nostr:npub1s0veng2gvfwr62acrxhnqexq76sj6ldg3a5t935jy8e6w3shr5vsnwrmq5 cohort here in Madeira. Mind completely blown. Everyone should check out these projects. People have no idea how good Nostr is going to get.
 nostr:npub1dergggklka99wwrs92yz8wdjs952h2ux2ha2ed598ngwu9w7a6fsh9xzpc and nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft are legends for instigating this. Things are going to get insane.

DON'T POST CROWD SHOTS OF BITCOINERS ON CONFERENCES WHO DIDN'T GIVE YOU EXPLICIT CONSENT TO INDEX THEIR FACE ON THE INTERNET.

Remember, Nostr loves Proof of Work. That means you don't need to be a developer to build on Nostr. You just need to interact, engage, and/or create content. Bring back true human interactions. You'll love it.


Madeira is beautiful. Def recommend going on holiday here sometime. The conference is okay. Lots of bitcoin and nostr talks which is interesting.


hahaha nah didn’t do it but drove behind them 😂


Congrats 💜
