From The Sovereign Individual: "-- a reputation for honesty will be an important asset in the cybereconomy. In the anonymity of cyberspace, this reputation may not always apply to a known person, but it will be reliably verifiable through identification of cryptographic keys." Nostr anyone? The authors foresaw the emergence of it way back in the 90s 🤯

Now that we have gained back our monetary sovereignty with bitcoin, it's time to gain back the control over our attention too with nostr. No more doomscrolling on X.

If volatile fiat prices make something not a store of value, then by that logic gold in Weimar Germany wasn't a store of value because it's fiat nominated price was so volatile.

Equating fiat price volatility to risk is intellectually stupid. Mainstream considers bitcoin risky due to short term volatility even though in the long term it is greatly volatile to the upside.
