#Bitcoin Miner. Sovereign Individual. Follow the white rabbit. Keep Nostr Weird.
I watched the Ted Talk for this and I was like; what a stupid product. Six years later and $230M raised from investors like Sam Altman from OpenAi and it’s a flop. The founders were both from Apple. How can so many talented people not see that just because something is kind of cool in a demo; it doesn’t mean it’s a good product that people will be willing to pay $700 for? image
Regardless of the individual circumstances, the language used should concern anyone mining in the United States. It’s also interesting how much FUD about anything to do with Bitcoin has entered the news cycle at the same time. πŸ€” View quoted note β†’
Napster was centralized and after the authorities killed it, we got P2P like Kazaa and BitTorrent. Samurai and Wasabi had a centralized coordinator and the authorities are killing them. Nostr is the decentralized answer to centralized social media gatekeepers. I don’t know if Emessbee is the Kazaa or BitTorrent answer to coinjoining, but if it isn’t this, it will be something like this. The book, The Starfish and The Spider was written before #Bitcoin and #Nostr, however we are watching it play out over and over. Truth and Freedom are like water. They route around obstructions.
