 The Future of Decentralized Web. Some high level notes from  @jack and  @ODELL conversation at #nostriga.

1️⃣ It's very important that decentralized systems like Nostr and Bitcoin provide resilient alternatives to centralized models.

2️⃣ Nostr’s open, permissionless architecture stands out as a future-proof platform, enabling innovation without central control.

3️⃣ Looking Ahead: Despite current challenges, there's confidence that Nostr can surpass traditional platforms in utility and user freedom, thanks to ongoing community-driven development.

 If you missed the past #nostriga event, you can find Jack's and Odell's chat in youtube (link below). I will be posting a summary in short for those interested.

 Is anyone discussing or thinking about key rotation in #nostr? 
 What type of content do you wish nostr had more of? 
 NOSTR HAS BEEN MY ONLY SOCIAL MEDIA FOR A YEAR NOW AND IT IS FUCKING AWESOME.

WE HAVE MADE INSAN... 
 Welcome! Suggest you configure your Lightning wallet so we can zap you. Zapping is a key feature for the full nostr experience 
 Give a follow to my little bro

 Zap n follow 
 Omg so much love 😂 
 It’s been a couple of days in #nostr, newcomer. Gotta say it’s been quite an eye opening experience of what the future might look like. Zaps change completely the experience. My second note was zapped by @jack and since then I haven’t stopped zappin’

Happy zapping everyone 
 We're lucky to have #nostr 😉  @fiatjaf  
 Thanks! Been great so far 
 No doubt about it! 
 This video puts into question NVIDIA's growth. It argues NVIDIA is funding their own clients to purchase from itself. A very dangerous practice when mixed with hype.

 Okay #nostr what is a Zap and how do I use them? 
 It’s a way to tip in the platform. You have to setup a wallet and once that’s done you can “zap” any note you find useful and people can give you a tip / zap as well anytime. It’s built in Lightning and have the currency used to tip it’s bitcoin. Typically people tip between 21 and 60 satoshis ($0,1 to $0,3) per zap. 
 I created my account this week as well :)
The easiest way to setup the wallet was using the primal app on my experience.

What app are you using? 
 Same journey 😂

I must say that I received one zap worth 100x. So it really depends on who’s zapping you and how much have they decided to use as the regular tip for a note. 
 Btw first time I’m tempt to reference another note, but if this link works, I helped yesterday another user to setup their wallet nostr:note17sqwvycke5pdrehqtndcqehcceadqdrem2mvqwn443zt2wlcaqas0lr578 
 Yeah 100%

You can setup the wallet with the lower level menu. Is the thunder icon on the center. We can test it once you’ve done the setup 
 I still can’t zap 
 I was able to zap you just now! 
 TECHNICALLY SPEAKING THE BRAZIL X BAN IS TRIVIAL TO CIRCUMVENT.

THAT IS MOSTLY IRRELEVANT.

WILL... 
 Tricky. I don’t see how you would fix it. You would need anonymous posting, problem would be distribution as followers are per identity. You would need other types of distribution with similar reach for anonymous accounts (e.g. hashtags on steroids)

I drank too much coffee today 
 Olá, Brasil 
 Brazil this week is the perfect time to demostraste why #nostr is important 
 What type of content do you wish nostr had more of? 
 I’ve had a great experience with @primal. Really recommend for newcomers. Extremely easy to setup, esp the wallet 
 With primal you can get a wallet pretty easy 
 Or with wallet of satoshi 
 You can port this account to primal via the private key. What client are you using at the moment? 
 On Damus:
1) Click on your profile image
2) Open Settings
3) Go to Keys
4) Copy the Secret Account Login Key

Open Primal, if you have an account already setup
1) Click on your profile image
2) Hit the circle with the three dots to the right of your profile picture
3) Click in "Add an existing account"
4) Paste the Secret Account Login Key (should start with nsec) 
 No, but you’re very close to one. In primal on the lower menu there’s a round button with a thunder icon, follow the setup instructions and you should be set 
 Point me when done and I can zap you to test it out 
 That was supposed to say “Ping me” 
 For sure 
 I can see your zaps working now, have fun!

 Does anyone know if you can rotate keys in nostr? #newbie

 Thanks for the info!

 Does anybody have an invite code for getalby.com? 
 Hey @Alby how can I get an invite code, could you help? 
 Hello from Costa Rica, excited to be around

#introductions 
 That’s amazing, thx! 
 Thanks for the tip! I think I’ve set it up, don’t have a code for Alby (do you happen to know someone who has?) but was able to stop Wallet of Satoshi 
 Appreciate it! 
 Thanks! 
 It’s been great
Thanks! 
 damus is still the fastest out there 
 Was pretty easy to setup for a newcomer, this is literally my second post ever 
 The most underrated perk of #Nostr (specifically the lack of algorithm) is that you are not punis... 
 It's based on relays, and probably there's (or can be) some influence at the client level. Your client (Primal, Damus, etc) connects to the relays that are listed in your profile, the client requests the notes from the relays and orders the information by the time it was posted.

When you post a note, the client signs it and sends it to all the relays listed in the profile.

afaik
