The real reason Nostr is going to change the world is that we're going to realize that we had much more in common than we though we did. And that's going fundamentally change society. If people that think they're on the left or on the right, if people think that people are like this or the other, meet each other in an uncensorable platform where they can really be themselves and they won't be banned or censored for saying what they think, with time people realize they have a lot in common than they thought they did. Nostr will build bridges between people that never thought they could connect. And that will change everything with time. Because currently the status quo thrives on division. If that division is reduced then what's left is connection, growth and trust. A new society will be born. #bitcoin #nostr #philosophy #society

Anybody interested in entrepreneurship, Bitcoin and Nostr? What ideas do you think could work in this space/intersection? #bitcoin #nostr #entrepreneurship #startups

New alternatives will be born. In reality, we don't need to compete against them. We don't need to play their game. We can just create a better alternative. Everything is possible now. We just have to look in the right place and in the right way. #bitcoin #nostr #communities #governance #politics #philosophy

I love Ravel's Bolero. It's good energy and focus. "While on vacation at St Jean-de-Luz, Ravel went to the piano and played a melody with one finger to his friend Gustave Samazeuilh, saying, "Don't you think this theme has an insistent quality? I'm going to try and repeat it a number of times without any development, gradually increasing the orchestra as best I can."[3] Idries Shah wrote that the main theme is adapted from a melody composed for and used in Sufi training." #music

Rural depopulation will allow new governance models to popup all over the world. People will unite under better philosophy, culture, economies, institutions, etc. Bitcoin communities will eventually be seeds of the new nation states. #bitcoin #nostr #philosophy #politics

If you're feeling stuck right now, just breathe. :) #bitcoin #nostr #philosophy

What are your opinions of the Liquid Network? I find the whole thing interesting and with lots of potential. I'm currently digging through the technology and organization to better understand the pros and cons. In my view I think it's doing very important work with the USDT connection, bridging Bitcoin/USD and that's the reason I'm interested in it. In my view it provides a good alternative for navigating market fluctuations by allowing a relatively decentralized/secure (more than the current financial systems) way of holding something like USD in bear markets. I know this might rub off some Bitcoin maximalists though. :D I'm now interested in the technicalities of the whole thing. I do know it's a federated system but I also don't know how an ideal could look like and if the comparison to anything else (currently of course) might not edge close to a Nirvana fallacy, i.e what is truly the risk in the current scenario. In this case it seems to me, that a federation of very culturally aligned players might be a good middle way before a more technically decentralized system, and indeed a step in the right direction. I wonder what you think? #bitcoin #asknostr #liquid #usd

I think Peter Thiel might be completely right. The only way is by creating the better technology, alternative. #entrepreneurship

Hey Nostr devs, hope you're doing well!. Quick question: Is there any NIP or any standard way to define a Podcast with Nostr? I was reading through @fiatjaf proposition of NIP-54:

GitHub

nips/54.md at podcasts · nostr-protocol/nips

Nostr Implementation Possibilities. Contribute to nostr-protocol/nips development by creating an account on GitHub.

I was wondering, if there's any news or developments on this? Because it kind feels in standby? @fiatjaf Also for example:

Proposal: Nostr NIP-32 Podcast Labels · Podcastindex-org/podcast-namespace · Discussion #569

Summary: This is a proposal to use Nostr NIP-32 Labels as the basis for linking nostr events to podcasts reliably using the existing podcast:guid a...

Regarding this github code, is this eventually the way to label a podcast on Nostr? @Oscar Merry Because that's what I was looking to do. Basically search podcasts events on relays and also upload podcast events (Podcast ID, name, episode, ideally from the PodcastIndex standard, as defined in NIP32-podcast labels) to relays. So I was just wondering what's the status of this, and gauge the interest of anyone else. Also tagging (from the Github issues): @Alex Gleason @Vitor Pamplona @PABLOF7z #asknostr #nostrdevs

The EU has gone from full eco lovers, to Covid zero, to full-on warmongers in 10 years. Long live the EU. These times will be remembered as a kind of Weimar period. A period that eventually leads to war. Either external or internal. And the opposition voices were, have been very few and/or completely silenced. Madness times. #europe #eu #politics #philosophy #economy

I don't understand how people have the internet and use it to repeat what they've heard on TV. War is a brainwash from the elites to make money. Just like Covid was. And they are now arming Europe. An arms race in Europe propped by the media.... hmmm, I wonder what could go wrong? The propaganda in Europe is almost unbearable. The people don't learn from history. Media are promoting war, Reddit loves it. It reads exactly like WW1. They were also all eager to fight a war. A war that eventually also lead to WW2. Biggest wars in human history by far.
