So my GitHub has been suspended with no explanation, no warning, no emails.

I guess the development of blowater.app will stop for several days before I have an alternative code hosting solution.

nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m was right for wanting a decentralized code hosting software. Are there anybody still working on it?


Is there Bitcoin logo rising?

This was the white pill conversation I needed to end the week. Carliño's story is inspiring and what he's doing with nostr:npub14advhxua8w78gl2z7q8c4s20htxkzq4cu5mhj34ep0puf7smyqzszrd7qq in collaboration with @simpleproof to mitigate election fraud is something to be bullish about.

Also a great episode if you want to learn about how inefficient and dangerous OFAC is to liberty. The story of how OFAC destroyed Carliños  family business that had been around for 30+ years overnight will make your blood boil.

Wow, that's nice


Exactly one year ago on January 12, 2023, the fiat price of #bitcoin  was ~$18,000.

It amazing me how short some people’s memories are…

Zoom out.


When you lose weight by burning fat, where does the fat go? How does it get out? Most people think we sweat it out, but no: we **breathe** it out.

Your body uses carbohydrates for energy, and when you dont eat enough, your body burns fat. Fat is stored as triglycerides, which are made of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen and metabolized into carbon dioxide and water. When you lose 1kg of weight, you literally breathed out 840g of weight as CO2. The remaining 160g turns into H2O and is peed out.

Take a look at this prototype. It's a Nostr signer web-app - it works in your browser, doesn't need extensions, and stores your keys locally.

I love the recent ideas by nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft  and nostr:npub1wmr34t36fy03m8hvgl96zl3znndyzyaqhwmwdtshwmtkg03fetaqhjg240  about OAuth-like nostr signup/login flows, but OAuth is so smooth because it works on the web - no extensions or apps needed. And the only Nostr web-signing option we had until now was to give custody of your keys to a remote nsecbunker, or paste nsec into every app.

This app, though, is a pure web app, and it does signing locally. It uses NIP46 just like nsecbunker, so it shouldn't be too hard for apps to start supporting it - the one that already works is Snort. With nip05 names added on top we can make signup/login flows that are very smooth and users would only deal with email-like usernames and passwords, without the custody of keys by third-parties.

Ok, let's watch the demo. Your eyes will bleed, but it's a prototype. Maybe #nostrdesign team would help us turn it into something pleasant.

https://video.nostr.build/b3bbcd1aa40ca6d1a3175f6690171e859dc85d41d7f4878b1bbc8f9b9c264fa9.mp4

This approach technically works across devices, but that's unreliable on mobile if device is locked, plus your devices are offline sometimes, so the best way would be to have this app store keys on each of your devices so that at least one instance of the signer is always online (on the device you're using right now). That's why this app has built-in password-protected cloud sync for keys.

It's open source.

As promised last night, I changed the license of both nsecbunkerd and nsecbunker admin-UI from MIT+CC to full MIT.

And here's a demo video showing how to deploy both the nsecbunkerd and the admin UI locally in a few commands.

Here is a demo of a new onboarding flow for nostr applications. I started working on this after watching nostr:npub1wmr34t36fy03m8hvgl96zl3znndyzyaqhwmwdtshwmtkg03fetaqhjg240's keynote "Nostr for normies" at nostr:npub1nstrcu63lzpjkz94djajuz2evrgu2psd66cwgc0gz0c0qazezx0q9urg5l; which I highly recommend watching.

My goal here was to create a way to onboard new users without requiring them to:
* install a browser extension
* copy/paste a secret
* explain npub/nsec stuff
* without losing interoperability with other nostr applications

This flow resembles a lot an OAuth style (e.g. "Login with twitter") flow:
* You create an account in one site (e.g. Twitter)
* You can "login" to another site with that account
* You can revoke access from using your account

Behind the scenes this is using NIP-89 to find nsecBunkers that allow people to register an account in their domain.

This means that any nostr application can offer a signup/login flow on any nsecBunker domain. The application itself doesn't take custody nor ever see the generated key.

And what's cool is that any nsecBunker provider can create their own flow; they can use passwords, or not, they can require a payment or proof-of-work to create an account. They can brand their "signup/login" popup page in whatever way they want.

Here is a demo video of this new building block that is now available to nostr applications.

Cashu es un protocolo de Ecash de código abierto para Bitcoin que ofrece transacciones instantáneas de tarifa cero con una privacidad casi perfecta.

### ¿Qué es Cashu?
[Cashu](https://cashu.space/) es un protocolo de Ecash de código abierto para Bitcoin que ofrece transacciones
instantáneas de tarifa cero con una privacidad casi perfecta, creado por nostr:npub12rv5lskctqxxs2c8rf2zlzc7xx3qpvzs3w4etgemauy9thegr43sf485vg.

En la siguiente tabla se compara Cashu y Bitcoin on-chain, sacada de la presentación [Nuts and Bolts](https://nuts-and-bolts.gandlaf.com/) de nostr:npub1cj6ndx5akfazux7f0vjl4fyx9k0ulf682p437fe03a9ndwqjm0tqj886t6 en la Conferencia Bitcoin Bangkok 2023.

| Cashu | Bitcoin (on-chain) |
|--|--|
| Sin libro mayor | Libro mayor distribuido |
| Token al portador | UTXO |
| Transacciones ciegas | Transacciones públicas |
| Centralizado | Descentralizado |
| De confianza | Sin confianza |
| Sin registro de tx | Registro de tx |

Como podemos ver, Cashu sacrifica la confianza y la descentralización en favor de la
privacidad. Esto tiene mucho sentido cuando se trata de soluciones de custodia, ya que
el usuario ya utiliza un servicio centralizado en el que tiene que confiar. Las soluciones de
custodia tradicionales tienen una privacidad horrible, ya que ese custodio conoce los
fondos que posee un usuario y con quién está transaccionando. Permitiendo ataques y
censura a los usuarios. Los registros de los datos también se pueden convertir en un
honeypot.

Por el contrario, los mints de Cashu pueden actuar como custodios que no saben
quienes son sus usuarios, cuántos fondos tienen ni con quién interactúa. Esta casa de la
moneda (mint) solo tiene como único registro una lista de secretos gastados que no son
reutilizables y sin forma de asociarlos con los usuarios.

![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitcointxoko/guides/main/images/cashu/onchain-ark-lightning-ecash.jpeg)

Algunos casos de uso serían vales ya centralizados y custodiados por un tercero; uso
para pagar por un recurso como APIs, relays de nostr o mixnets; sistemas
integrados que reemplazan el modelo cuenta y saldo; y servicios de intercambio/mezcla
para desligar depósitos y retiros.
### Historia
Ecash fue concebido por primera vez por David Chaum en 1982 como un protocolo de
transmisión de valor electrónico utilizando firmas ciegas. Cashu es una implementación
de Ecash que utiliza la [variante](https://cypherpunks.venona.com/date/1996/03/msg01848.html) de David Wagner de Chaumian blinding de 1996 creada
por nostr:npub12rv5lskctqxxs2c8rf2zlzc7xx3qpvzs3w4etgemauy9thegr43sf485vg.
### Terminología
Para ayudar a comprender como funciona Cashu, vamos a tratar primero alguna
terminología esencial.
#### Mint
Los Mint en Cashu es el custodio de los fondos de los usuarios. Su labor es acuñar y
quemar tokens y prevenir el doble gasto.

El mint de Cashu corre un nodo Lightning, por lo que puede enviar y recibir pagos
Lightning. Incluyendo el intercambio con otros Mints. Sin embargo, todavía puedes
realizar transacciones con tokens ecash, incluso si el nodo Lightning está oﬄine. A
diferencia de Lightning, el destinatario tampoco necesita estar en linea para recibirlo.
Esta casa de la moneda o mint no sabe quién es el usuario, cuantos fondos tiene ni con
quienes está realizando transacciones.

Sin embargo, desde que el mint es el custodio de los fondos de los usuarios, deberías
elegir un mint en el que confíes y del que conozcas al operador.

Utiliza montos pequeños o canjea los tokens de inmediato.
#### Token
Un token cashu es esencialmente un conjunto de datos firmado por el mint. El usuario
guarda esos tokens en su billetera. Dado que esos tokens ecash son solo texto, pueden
ser enviadas por cualquier protocolo basado en texto. Como nostr, mail, sms, etc.

Cashu utiliza un sistema que se basa en monedas con denominaciones fijas.

La denominación de los billetes fíat son una analogía. Por ejemplo, en el Euro los billetes
son de 5, 10, 20, 50, 100…

En Cashu, los tokens están denominados en potencias de 2. Por ejemplo, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16,
32, 64, 128 sats, así sucesivamente.

El objetivo de usar denominaciones es aumentar el anonimato establecido entre los
usuarios y hacer que sea aún más difícil para los mints asociar las transacciones con las
identidades de los usuarios.

### ¿Cómo funciona? Explicado como si tuviera 5 años

![mint-request](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitcointxoko/guides/main/images/cashu/mint-request.jpeg)

Alice quiere acuñar nuevos tokens Cashu. Así que se dirige al mint de Bob, y dice: “¡Oye!
Quiero acuñar nuevos tokens de Cashu".

![mint-request-response](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitcointxoko/guides/main/images/cashu/mint-request-response.jpeg)

Bob responde diciendo: "Vale, págame y envíame un secreto ciego". El secreto ciego
significa que Alice conoce el secreto, pero Bob no puede verlo.

![blinding](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitcointxoko/guides/main/images/cashu/blinding.jpeg)

Alice genera un secreto y luego lo ciega para que Bob no sepa cuál es el secreto.

![mint](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitcointxoko/guides/main/images/cashu/mint.jpeg)

Ella le paga a Bob y le envía su comprobante de pago y su secreto ciego.

![signing](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitcointxoko/guides/main/images/cashu/signing.jpeg)

![mint-response](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitcointxoko/guides/main/images/cashu/mint-response.jpeg)

Cuando Bob está conforme con el pago, firma el secreto ciego de Alice y le devuelve el
secreto ciego firmado. Una vez firmado por Bob, en el futuro puede tener la seguridad de
que el token es válido.

![unblinding](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitcointxoko/guides/main/images/cashu/unblinding.jpeg)

Alice quiere pagarle a Carol. Ella le envía a Carol su secreto junto con una llave para
descifrar el secreto ciego firmado.

Carol quiere canjear su token. Así que ella va a la casa de la moneda, Bob, y le muestra el
secreto y la clave que Alice le dio.

![verification](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitcointxoko/guides/main/images/cashu/verification.jpeg)

Bob nunca ha visto el secreto antes y tampoco sabe que fue Alice quien lo generó, ya
que Alice lo ofuscó antes de enviárselo. Pero puede verificar que lo firmó antes, por eso
puede tratarlo como un gasto valido del token. Ahora firma un nuevo token para Carol, o
le devuelve los sats y añade el secreto a una lista de secretos gastados. Si alguien trata
de reclamar con el mismo secreto otra vez, Bob lo rechazará porque es un gasto doble.

#### ¿Cómo sabe el mint (Bob) qué cantidad de sats darle a Carol?
Anteriormente hemos mencionado que los tokens Cashu están denominados en
potencias de 2 (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32...), algo así como billetes fíat.

Bob, la casa de la moneda, tiene una clave privada distinta que usa para firmar cada
denominación. Por ejemplo, tiene una clave privada única para tokens con denominación
de 1 sat, otra para los de denominación 2 sats, otra para los de 8 y así sucesivamente…

De esta manera, cuando Carol viene a Bob para canjear tokens, Bob sabe con qué clave
privada ha firmado el token antes y, por lo tanto, a qué denominación pertenecen los
tokens.

#### ¿Qué pasa con el cambio?
En Cashu no hay cambio. Solo tienes que decirle al mint que destruya los tokens
antiguos y que acuñe nuevos tokens del mismo importe exacto.

Para ver esto, digamos que Alice tiene dos tokens que suman 10 sats. Un token de 8 sats
y otro de 2 sats.

Ella quiere enviar 9 sats a Carol. Así que va al mint y le dice a Bob que divida su token de
2 sats en dos tokens de 1 sat. Ahora puede enviar 9 sats a Carol en forma de una ficha
de 8 sats y una ficha de 1 sat, y guardar la otra ficha de 1 sat para Ella.

#### Lightning para la interconexion
¿Qué pasa cuando Alice quiere pagarle a David, que no confía en el mint de Bob pero
conoce a Erin y usa el mint de Erin?

Alice cambia sus tokens en el mint de Bob, dando instrucciones a Bob para que derrita
los tokens o los convierta de nuevo en sats Lightning. El mint de Bob luego envía una
transacción Lightning al mint de Erin. El mint de Erin luego acuña nuevos tokens con
David utilizando los sats Lightning que acaba de recibir del mint de Bob.

![lightning-mints](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitcointxoko/guides/main/images/cashu/lightning.jpeg)

### ¿Qué es lo siguiente para Cashu?
#### Ecash programable
Podemos establecer condiciones de gasto al ecash, siendo el mint quien las aplica. Esto
puede desbloquear potentes contratos inteligentes sin llegar a la cadena base ni a la red
Lightning, que pueden permitir pagos públicos, pagos oﬄine y de alta frecuencia.
#### Plan de prueba de pasivos para los mints
El llamado Proof of Liabilities de Calle (PoL) en Cashu, se trata de una especie de sistema
de auditoria que le dificulta a los custodios atacar a los usuarios mediante la introducción
del concepto de epochs (épocas). En este esquema, el mint custodio rota de forma
regular el conjunto de claves privadas que utilizan en cada epoch y publica listas
auditables de tokens acuñados y quemados en el último epoch. Combinado con un
esquema de prueba de reservas en el que las reservas se mantienen en un multifirma on-
chain, un custodio deshonesto no puede reducir sus pasivos sin arriesgarse a ser
descubierta por los usuarios. Para profundizar sobre este aspecto consulta el [artículo completo](https://gist.github.com/callebtc/ed5228d1d8cbaade0104db5d1cf63939).
### Prueba Cashu
Puedes probar Cashu a través de nuestras guías para [Nutstash] y [eNuts]. Únicamente
necesitas una cartera Lightning y un teléfono u ordenador.

I have been quiet lately, but it is for some good reason.

I am turning my medical device company ( eyenetra.com ) into an open-source project.

As some of you may know, I spent the past 15 years trying to increase access to eyeglasses by developing and shipping a new class of vision-testing devices. Even though we shipped thousands of units and served millions of patients, Nostr made me realize what I was missing all along: true decentralization.

All of our hardware designs and software will be made available to the FOSS community to build their own vision-testing devices and services. And I am going to be working with design/manufacturing partners across the globe to bring them to the market in as many variations as we can.

It has been a long process but I finally have all approvals to make it happen. Thanks to all my shareholders who believed in this idea and allowed me to make it happen.

The future is bright.

on the second flight I finished writing the implementation (and modifications to NIP-46) to make the following possible:

1. Alice goes to App A (e.g. Coracle) -- she clicks "create account" and gets a NIP-05 "alice@somesite.com". She uses Coracle as she normally would.

2. Alice goes to App B (e.g. Primal) -- she clicks "login" and types in "alice@somesite.com". A popup comes up and asks Alice if she wants to authorize this application to access her account. In an advanced setting She can scope down what the application can do (e.g. only create short notes but don't change the profile data)

At no point is there any mention of nsec, npub, keys, NIP-07, nsecbunker. Nothing. It just works.

There are currently an average of 328,500 BTC produced per year. After the next halving in 6 months, it will drop to 164,250.

Does anyone think there won’t be more than 164,250 individuals or institutions who won’t want to own at least one?

“A lot of Bitcoiners only use Lightning a few times a year when they head to conferences. They pay for food, merchandise, etc. while at a Bitcoin conference and then don't use Lightning again until their next one. It's a sad truth. Lightning should NOT be a novelty. Nostr is the best damn use case for Lightning to date. This point needs to be sung from the mountain tops.”

Creating the theming and design sistem for nostree, so much fun! And it will allow everyone to have custom themes, share themes and more. BTW nostr doesn't have any nip for theming and look n feel customisation, ill use just css noted in a kind 5393, as propuse in https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/issues/742


I am now a big fan of 1059 event (Vitor version nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z )and #0xchat app also makes extensive use of 1059 event: sealed DM, secret DM & voice and video call signaling events.

In the upcoming version, it will continue to be used, with private group featured next.

Perhaps we do need to find a relay that can perfectly support the 1059 event requirements.


It's very interesting to finally see a client that is designed to transfer mostly, if not always, private events. It opens the door for Nostr to be used in several private communication channels like company workspaces, business transactions, family groups, etc.

GM.

Everyone is getting into the Lightning liquidity game. LN+ is the latest to enter.

What does this mean? For new node operators, it's a relatively easy way to get incoming channels. For experienced node operators with #bitcoin liquidity to spare, it's a way to earn a little "yield" by opening channels to those that need it.

Channel management and liquidity management are one of the largest pains when it comes to running a Lightning node. Services like this help remove those pain points.

Alternatively, you can just run a node on your phone and have all of this fade into the background if none of this sounds appealing. (Mutiny, Phoenix, and Zeus can all do this for you with little to no managerial overhead.)

The world is open to using pairs of cryptographic keys for user authentication.
Slowly then suddenly.

https://github.blog/2023-09-21-passkeys-are-generally-available/


Should each account on Amethyst have it's own database of Nostr events? Or should we have just one DB with everything for all logged-in accounts?

Having one DB for each account enables us to save decrypted content that should only be seen by that account, speeding up the visualization of that encrypted content (like chat messages). However, it also massively duplicates content if both accounts are seeing similar things on public feeds.

Maybe we need a dual-layer database approach. One layer to store everything as it came from relays and a second layer with one database per account to store things in a decrypted fashion 🤔.

Thanks for helping me out.

Correct. Only private events will be P2P (because they are already encrypted in a P2P way). I just have way more private event types coming up, like legally-binding contracts: https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/755


We are beginning the development process for transmitting Nostr events in a peer-to-peer fashion, away from relays. This will start with Gift-wrapped DMs, Private Attachments, Private zaps, Private Text Notes, and Private Reactions; and will be the preferred transmission choice if both users are online, falling back to relays when they are not. Our Push Notification system already transmitted over 500,000 GiftWrapped Nostr events that relays will never see. With a full P2P this will get even better and will open the doors for voice and video calls directly inside Amethyst. Side-stepping relays won't be easy or quick. And I am sure we will get strong pushback from relay operators. But we will get there. And while this might start as an Amethyst feature, it will be a NIP and other clients will be able to join the privacy train.

Nostr is just starting.

i don't know who needs to hear this right now but read and respect the NIPs, don't blindly copy other people's code. all nostr clients need to be interoperable and the spec we agreed upon is on the NIPs. there are mistakes, bugs and leftovers from experimentation in some clients.

In realms of science, a beacon bright,
Light dances with such pure delight.
A photon's journey, a cosmic flight,
Revealing secrets, both day and night.

Waves and particles, it's a dual charade,
Quantum mysteries in its cascade.
From colors of rainbows, to shadows it made,
Light's physics, a tale in which we're swayed.

Einstein's insight, so profoundly deep,
E=mc², the world did reap.
Time and space, in its shimmering sweep,
In light's embrace, our perceptions leap.

From the stars above to the microscope's view,
Light unveils worlds, both old and new.
A symphony of wavelengths, a vibrant hue,
Physics of light, forever true.

Let it guide your quest, in science's domain,
In your passion for knowledge, let it reign.
For in understanding light's intricate chain,
We unlock the universe's grand terrain.

### Non-Technical Explanation of NIP-79

NIP-79 is a proposal that seeks to introduce a standardized way of handling digital contracts, covenants, and agreements within the Nostr protocol. In simple terms, this protocol acts as a digital platform that allows parties involved in a contract to interact in a more secure and verifiable manner. Here is a detailed explanation of each section:

1. Types of Documents:
   - Contract: A legally binding agreement between two or more parties.
   - Covenant: A written promise or restriction within a contract or agreement.
   - Agreement: A mutual understanding between parties regarding their relative rights and responsibilities.

2. Format: The documents will be in Markdown format, allowing for structured and human-readable presentation.

3. Metadata: Specific metadata fields can be added to the event, such as the title of the contract, the parties involved, the signing date, the expiration date, etc.

4. Timestamping with OpenTimestamps: Once signed, OpenTimestamps can be used to create a cryptographic proof of the contract's existence at a specific moment, stored on the Bitcoin blockchain.

5. References and Linking: Documents can reference other events in Nostr, such as annexes, terms and conditions, or other relevant documents.

6. New 'kind' Definitions: New definitions are introduced to categorize different stages and elements of the contractual process.

### Usage Example:

Imagine that two companies, Company A and Company B, decide to enter into a collaboration contract. Here is how they might use this protocol:

1. Contract Creation: Company A creates a draft of the contract on the platform, detailing the terms and conditions of their collaboration with Company B.

2. Review and Signature: Company B reviews the contract, and once they are satisfied with the terms, both parties digitally sign the contract on the platform.

3. Signature Witnesses: Witnesses can be designated to verify the authenticity of the signatures involved, adding an additional layer of verification to the signing process.

4. Contract Execution: Once all parties have signed, the contract is officially activated on the platform, marking the beginning of the collaboration.

5. Verification and Security: At any time, the parties can verify the authenticity and integrity of the contract on the platform, ensuring that the agreed terms remain intact and secure.

This protocol, therefore, facilitates a more secure, transparent, and efficient contractual process, which could be of great value in the legal world.

Talking with a friend of mine (lawyer) about nip79 he pointed this
"Clearly establish in the contract terms which jurisdiction will be applicable in case of disputes. This reduces ambiguity and provides certainty to all parties involved"

NEW NOSTR CLIENT ANNOUNCEMENT:

https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/99223753/223734919-ee5fc4d0-ee89-409c-a7c8-1848310bb92d.png

ONOSENDAI オノセンダイ
a cyberspace client for the one true metaverse: nostr

🌌 https://onosendai.tech 🌌 (hint: in alpha. desktop/android works best right now)

ONOSENDAI visualizes objects on the nostr protocol in an interactive 3D world referred to as 'cyberspace'.

⚡ Semantic Coordinate System (✅)

Each nostr note (kind 1) is assigned a 3D point in cyberspace based on the _meaning_ of its content using a 256-bit simhash. This unbiased algorithm maps all notes to a 3D universe you can explore.

⚡ Proof of Work for Localization of Constructs (wip🛠)

Placing 3D objects in Cyberspace is a self-evident necessity. Kind 10333 notes may be published with content set to a common 3D format to create public 3D visualizations. Proof of work can be utilized to mine the event ID hash which determines the coordinate location. Proof of work is the only way to claim cyberspace real estate.

⚡ Presence (wip🛠)

Ephemeral events could be used to *optionally* share your current position in cyberspace so that other users can visualize your movement and interact with you.

💡 Rationale

Cyberspace (in this context) is an early-internet trope from the 80s. It's an enthusiastic and naive speculation on the future of network-connected computers and how humans might use them. Ultimately, instead of interacting in 3D virtual spaces, humans ended up interacting via documents in web browsers which is much more practical and efficient than 3D visualizations.

Besides the problem of visualizing content, there are several more critical problems with the concept of cyberspace that are rarely (if ever) addressed in fiction:

- Who hosts it?
- Who decides how it looks?
- Who owns the content?
- Who makes the rules?
- Who assigns the space?
- Who controls it?

These questions are answered satisfactorily in the era of bitcoin and nostr:

- Who hosts it? nostr relays
- Who decides how it looks? nostr clients like ONOSENDAI
- Who owns the content? users cryptographically own their content
- Who makes the rules? open source consensus
- Who assigns the space? an impartial algorithm + proof of work
- Who controls it? 🖕NOBODY🖕

In my opinion, it is only in the context of bitcoin and nostr that something like cyberspace could make sense. Without the decentralized properties of nostr and bitcoin, cyberspace is just another 3D game owned by a company. However, when cyberspace is decentralized, enforces property rights, responds to proof of work, and enables instant value transfer, it becomes something entirely different.

Because cyberspace inherits all of these unique properties from nostr and because value transfer can be executed in cyberspace through bitcoin lightning, I argue that it is time for humanity to take another look at this dusty old concept and start exploring it with renewed interest.

I, unlike many metaverse enthusiasts, have a strong moral preference for reality over illusion. The idealized metaverse or cyberspace worlds that Meta and the like want to build are nothing more than a drug used to extract resources from miserable VR-goggled souls. That is the fiat version of cyberspace and it sucks. I am not interested in building clever simulations that seek to replace reality. I want to build tools that enable people to connect and be more productive. I want to open up new channels for communication, innovation, and human flourishing in reality.

Cyberspace is a new way to visualize the new paradigm for digital communication and property. It is wholly based around cryptography and digital ownership. If not for these things, cyberspace would be irrelevant.

A cyberspace built on decentralized protocols and sound money — nostr and bitcoin — has the potential to be something innovative, healthy, and ultimately productive for humanity. Cyberspace can be something where wealth is not extracted but rather generated by work and free markets. Cyberspace could be a new medium of connection built on sound principles that can enable humanity to do new things not previously dreamed of.

If it were not for the profound inventions of bitcoin and nostr, these aspirations would be nothing but ludicrous and delusional. In fact, any metaverse or cyberspace built outside of the context of bitcoin and nostr are delusional at best and Machiavellian at worst. Spoiler: it's the latter in most cases. But we have the opportunity to build something better. We have the winning hand. Let's make it happen.

Hey #plebchain #PVchain, i'm still handing out free NIP05's. I do it manually and do not charge any fee.

NIP05 basically makes it easier to read your npub, as it is linked via a domain. This way you dont have to check the npub of the person contacting you, just check the short NIP05.

If your interested in a NIP05 look around to the services offering it or just let me know and i'll add you to my domain 💟

I think we are in the phase of running away from things like Twitter/Reddit to nostr, so the conversation is about that.

But it goes much broader than just social media. It’s a generalized protocol that enables many use cases, and I think the power of it comes in the ability to go from one use case, or client, to another, quickly and easily.

We haven’t seen much yet around this idea but we will.

I’m personally really hoping for a github replacement that Bitcoin core would feel safe using.


They just released these new limits. Are they further reducing them?

Twitter is dying so damn fast. The rumored new Twitter rules are as follows:

- 200 DMs limit per day (group chats included)
- 20 tweets limit per day (includes retweets, quote tweets and replies)
- 4 photos or 1 video per day (media tweets are counted separately from the general tweets)

Paying Twitter Blue users will have no limits.

🤣
