Stablesats uses exchanges and it is connected to fiat system because you are trying to create synthetic USD (fiat).

Its not difficult to shutdown custodial setup with lot of users, volume etc. that do not follow regulations. It is irresponsible to hide the risks involved because this can ruin careers for lot of young developers, users etc. who just might want to experiment with it.

No. The reason I couldn't find the event on relay is because it never got published. Connection to relay was closed after publishing first event. So removing this line after first sleep fixes the issue:

`relay_manager.close_all_relay_connections()`

It was just created and event id was printed.


Kind 1 event gets published but cannot find Kind 4 event on that relay published by publish_dm_event()

What could be the reason? Here's the python script if you want to test: https://pastebin.com/raw/dNFNB9XF

You will have to clone [python-nostr](https://github.com/jeffthibault/python-nostr) and save this python script inside python-nostr directory to run it

CTV and Cold Channels.

Today in Bitcoin, to make a channel, you must first receive Bitcoin on-chain and then transfer it to a channel with your partner interactively. This is a minimum of two transactions just to open a channel and the channel opening cannot be batched.

With CTV, channels can be hidden inside your pubKey so that when you're paid and the transaction is committed on-chain (can even be batched using only one UTXO), that on-chain commitment is sufficient to use your channel. No need to dump the channel details on-chain.

Isn't it obvious that first 2 inputs are linked to first 7 outputs? What kind of anonymity did these achieve in this transaction?


https://m.primal.net/HWyB.png

It's still obvious that these inputs are corresponding to these outputs no ? I mean, it's more or less 570 BTC on both side, looks like a weak privacy gain. Anyway i would not be satisfied if it were mine....

This could really work


All our collective efforts in 2024 must be employed in developing a Nostr app with a single button. Users won't have to think, they will just press that button and they will be fed with content selected to them by an amazing algorithm. When they are hungry they press the button and food will be put inside their mouths. Whenever they feel a little bit of discomfort in their bodies they just press the button. The app cannot mention relays, keys or the word "Nostr" because that will intimidate users, it should have a familiar name, maybe it should be called "mom", since that word is very familiar to all normies since when they were babies.


If filtering is not censorship, why do you dislike filtering done by twitter? why work on nostr?


You can a have a default relay that is required for more features in the client. Everyone should register by paying some sats to use that relay.


*restricted by recipient


Problem exists outside twitter as well. There is no agreement on any covenant proposal.


I like covenants, but it's hard to agree on covenants when even the covenants proposers themselves disagree on what covenant scheme to do.

Bitcoin meetup in Mumbai on 4 Jan 2024. Invite-only.

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.


Can use the same pic for federated ecash as well

'even if .... pennies of value'.

Is there any solution outside of a Tor onion service?


Every software tutorial is bound to get outdated and fogotten eventually and that can be dagerous.

Furthermore, not only do you need to trust the software providers/maintainers, you also need to trust the tutorial author, which adds an often unnecessary 3rd party.

Make it a habbit to prefer official docs: README, man pages, wiki articles, packaged example configs, etc.

Like nostr:npub1v6qjdzkwgaydgxjvlnq7vsqxlwf4h0p4j7pt8ktprajd28r82tvs54nzyr said, a single bad option in bitcoin..conf might be enough to compromise your machine.

I agree, but if you wanna be private and self sovereign then WoS isn’t the answer either. just because they didn’t follow the rules doesn’t mean it’s a solution (i love them btw, Lightning legends)

Right there with you regarding optimism.

My take: The most practical way to know if something works is to break it until you can't anymore.

I think similar logic applies by FUDing your own bags. If you can't do it, you don't actually have conviction in them.

Indonesia Bitcoin Conference was awesome. I’d highly recommend you consider going next year

Bali is definitely far but definitely worth it

The conference was well produced in a terrific setting with excellent networking space, opportunities to meet local vendors, and fun side events to do with the speakers and guests

I met tons of Bitcoiners from Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore, India, Australia, Philippines, and beyond

It’s high time that SE Asia have a Bitcoin conference of this quality

Stay a couple extra days and hike a volcano, snorkel or dive in the incredible coral reefs, chill on the beach, explore temples and waterfalls, and sample some of the outstanding global fusion cuisine

Can’t say enough about the quality of food, if you are willing to do some reach and poke around. Some of the best meals I have had

In short: I will be back! https://image.nostr.build/7f5e0c2306e0c5dc660681e28570d15eecce9b5e1ae341cb43a229b776ac0f4b.jpg

Awesome


Here is an example.
Participant 0 sent the coin (value 100k sats) to Participant 1 with a file. They validated it, and the fidelity bond.

Then Participant 0 illegally spent the pathcoin:

https://mempool.space/signet/tx/7389220f82b9fc4a1db3d219373a13e6b50d267885361fa5a0901db3e09fb3b8

Then, P1 noticed, and broadcast the first stage penalty:

https://mempool.space/signet/tx/17959099cd0f3dbf47e9e233ce2eee60cda7815e1735c837b588c5753bdc23c1

Look at P2TrScript under 'Details' to see how OP_CTV as OP_NOP4, is used. Then, the second stage penalty was broadcast, which sent it to P1's wallet:

https://mempool.space/signet/tx/2961129e987a4de1bbf3d03b975fa8856764a5dde49203319d2d5a2c7a06f99d#vin=0

Worked first time! After testing 1000 times on regtest 😄

(Btw i forgot to update the CTV blockheight from regtest, but whatever.)


Thanks


Yes


Is there a way to set kind number while publishing events?


Still very much 'under development' but:

https://github.com/AdamISZ/pathcoin-poc

Next is to check that python-bitcointx installation with libsecp dependency can work on another machine (can't use release+wheel because taproot).
Apart from that, depencies are very light. But as noted in readme, if you want to test it with OP_CTV you need to be running Inquisition, i believe.


I think there is something wrong with python-nostr library because I tried creating the first event from snocait playground and it worked

Cc: nostr:npub108kuptq55xrxqc8ttfjqwwhkh7ruur7d3drm2yyp8ul9t86w9g0s3v9usw


First is created by python-nostr library and second is created by https://snowcait.github.io/nostr-playground/

Only the second is stored by relay wss://supertestnet.nostr1.com


Should these 2 events be considered same by nostr relays?

Dear NOSTR developers.
I want to work on an Adult Noster client designed for mature adult consumers.
I can not code.
I do know what makes a good adult site.
I've been in the adult industry for 17 years in just about every aspect.
I can also do site content, writing, and digital art.

Boost this. Please. Boost this.

Let's get it done before some developers ruin NOSTR for adult providers while denying their own personal opinions on content amount to censorship on a protocol that is supposed to be for freedom.


Do you think coinpool/paymentpool can improve coinjoin?


Funny, while looking up info about coinpool, I was reminded of joinpool, found Harding's writeup on optech here: https://gist.github.com/harding/a30864d0315a0cebd7de3732f5bd88f0

which referred to a discussion by gmax on IRC here:

https://gnusha.org/bitcoin-wizards/2019-05-21.log

... only to discover that I was the guy he was discussing it with, and I had 100% forgotten having that conversation 😆


Stop using amethyst app. Use another app. Primal also has an android app.


Most nostr apps are a twitter clone


cli, web app and electrum plugin are already built

plans to build an android app

joinstr is a protocol and others can build different clients that follow the same protocol


a beer cafe that accepts only bitcoin and price of beer varies based on demand

people can play the songs they like by bidding


Compliance is a dirty word.

The solution is decentralized solutions such as Joinstr or Joinmarket, although I like Joinstr better because it does away with fee collection, coinjoin for everyone.

This is a great take and I almost want to fork the existing NIPs repo to do this too.


FinCEN Seeks to Impose Strict Surveillance Requirements onto Broadly Defined 'Bitcoin Mixers'

The agency proposed designating 'crypto mixing' as an area of “primary money laundering concern" in order to impose certain recordkeeping and reporting requirements on involved transactions. The public will have 90 days to comment.

We thought Google hit rock bottom with #privacy.

Its new beta feature on Google Files for #Android called “Smart Search" is the trap door.

This creepy new feature on by default & scans every file on your phone. Why is this bad? Because it could potentially ruin your life. (1/3)

ten years into the future:

nostr didn't make it, no one uses it, no relays exist

what killed it?


FinCEN is proposing new rules that would classify “using programmatic or algorithmic code to … manipulate the structure of a transaction” and “creating and using single use… addresses” as mixing.

Yeah most of them are not even used. Instead of copying other apps if someone could create things based on new ideas.

Idea for an app that is only used for DMs and focused on privacy:

- A new public key sent to everyone Alice follows
- This key is used by Bob to message Alice from a new key which contains another public key
- Alice's response sent to Bob's new key using a new key contains another public key

TL;DR Each NIP 4 event uses a new key, sends to new key and has another key to get the reply. New tor circuit is used for each event so all events are created using different IP addresses.

the primal 24h trending are always the the same people. intentional?


Idea for a nostr project:

- Use encrypted channels so that multiple users can participate
- Every user locks some sats in NofN multisig
- Users need to shitpost as much as they can
- AI decides whose messages looked funniest, drunk, interesting etc.
- AI is oracle in this case which is used to unlock funds and send to the winner of game


It's random number used for testing.

Yes NIP 9 does not guarantee events are deleted although encrypted channels will be helpful. I have not implemented them yet.


- No fees for coordination apart from transaction fees which goes to miners

- Yes

- Not possible right now but I can make it configurable

- Yes users can also use multiple relays. Once the process is initiated, joinstr client keeps looking for events regularly and moves to next step when enough participants register UTXO

- Paid relays and encrypted channels will reduce lot of attacks. There are a few other ways which can be experimented once it's ready for mainnet.
