Batch invoice authorization
Send a wallet a batch of invoices, and pay them in one click.
It would make a convenient way to make p2p payments to multiple people.
This can be solved at the moment in 2 ways:
1οΈβ£ Solution: Send a service the total money, and let the service handle the rest
π« Problem: It creates unnecessary payments (β οΈ fees!), and adds a middle man, not convenient to self-host.
2οΈβ£ Solution: Let a service pay all of them through nwc.
π« Problem: If you want to be safe, you have to set a budget. It is inconvenient. But it is easily self-hostable without server.
π‘This could be solved by extending the nwc spec, so that we can create on the fly authorization strings and prompt the user to accept, that will be only useable for the current purpose, therefore keeps wallet safe, but improves comfortability.

@HoloKat the nostr design page you made is awesome! π₯
Link for others:
Unfortunately I am lazy, and want to have a running prototype first for my new nostr project, but if I publish it tomorrow, I will go through that page fully again, and solve the low hanging fruits.
Thanks for the great work! It is and will be tremendous help!

Why is there no liquidity aggregation for p2p btc markets?
How does liquidity appear on p2p markets? Is it mainly brought from exchanges?

I am so tired of unactionable bullshit.
I think you can consume content in 2 ways: 1οΈβ£ for enjoyment,
2οΈβ£ for learning.
When you consume for enjoyment, of course, it does not have to be actionable. You read, listen, see, play to enjoy, to get entertained.
But when you listen, see, read, play to learn, you want to learn something for a reason. You want to do some action.
We live in a world of false price signals. We consume content through websites, search engines, social media. We consume on the terms of the maintainer. Of course the maintainer will be profit oriented, which means they will show content that pays them more, not the content that would be the most relevant. Of course logically what they do is, they create a relevance to your search terms, and sort it in profit / relevance order.
This means, I can pay google to advertise my shit, and if my website is decent enough, but unuseful, it can still rank at the top for the inconvenience of the searching user... This is flawed!
This promotes marketing tricks, not actionable, good sounding bullshit.
I want to change this!
So I am on the path to cut out unnecessities, and if I provide to someone something, it has to be quality, and I want them to call my bullshit out, if there is any.
We can only progress, if we learn and adapt, and the best way to do that is a mutual benefitting relationship. Give value to the other incentivizing him to give back. In a healthy and kind environment, this can result in a self-reinforcing upward spiral. Let's be nice, incentivizing others to be nice, so that we lift eachother up, and progress at a faster pace.

π₯ The Power of Whys π₯
$Boost
Have you thought about your whys?
It makes sense to know why you want to do things on a deeper level, because then you might be able to fulfill your desires in different ways, if you know what you really want.
E.g.:
I want to have my own business.
Why?
Because I want to earn more money in less time.
Why?
So I have money and time to try new things and travel.
Why?
Because I would like to have new experiences.
Why?
Because I enjoy trying out new things and sharing it with someone.
Here, this could be the "bottom" of the why. But might go further. But now what?
Now that I know I want to have new experiences. I can create goals to fulfill my needs:
1οΈβ£ Find new experiences I want to try, and calculate how much time and money I need for them.
πSet this as a goal.
2οΈβ£ Calculate my base expenses, I add a savings rate for retirement (you can ignore), check how much extra money I need to reach the amount specified in (step 1οΈβ£)
3οΈβ£ Plan the experience based on when money will be reached, and time can be allocated.
4οΈβ£ Enjoy
π Repeat
Additional tips could be:
1οΈβ£ Increase earning.
π’ Seek promotion by working hard, and leverage it.
π’ Move to another company for higher salary.
π’ Do a side hustle.
2οΈβ£ Increase available time.
π’ Use flexibility of your employer.
π’ Leverage your hard work to gain more flexibility.
π’ Change to a more flexible job.
π’ Build side hustles/business to a point, where they can give sustainable income.
3οΈβ£ Increase productivity
π’ Find tools to increase productivity
π’ Learn time management
4οΈβ£ Increase self-value
π’ Learn new skills
π’ Read books
π’ Experience
π’ Build mutually supportive relationships
Sharing is caring π

Machen macht den Unterschied.

If you have to work hard to earn money.
Is it fair, that someone can get it, without working hard?
How does this increase the wealth gap?
You get salary for your invested time/work.
You have fixed time on earth.
If someone decreases the value of your salary, he devalues your invested work, and makes the time you worked in the past useless. He takes away the reason of your past.
Would you do/work the same now, if you know you won't get a salary for it?
Nature is incredible.
