Great article from @Big Bad John on how Bitcoin can go far beyond just payments—and how #pubky enables truly censorship-resistant systems. The best part? With did-nostr, every Nostr user gets these features for free, on top of everything Nostr already offers. It's the best of both worlds. Next-gen clients built with did-nostr, pubky, and #agenticnostr are going to change everything. https://medium.com/pubky/the-atomic-economy-reclaiming-society-from-the-inside-out-574504dfe326

Once a user has a did-nostr they can also get a wallet that can contain DigitalDocuments. These can also be Agents that you can tweak, own, trade, or deploy. In future-world everyone gets the Agent.

Getting there ... Trading digital assets over nostr and bitcoin. But will be more fun when you can trade Agents.

Once a nostr DID user has found their micro apps, they can have multiple apps, for storage, for todo lists, for wallets. And any type of new app can be added. Dont like one app? Use another, or even vibe code your own. Have an idea for a new app just create it and add it to your home screen. It's like a mobile app store, but better, because everything is under your control. Hopefully more systems will move onto did-nostr in future and offer more choice to users.

Nostr users with a DID (decentralized identfier) can tie their storage to their DID document, so that they, and others, can easily find their decentralized micro apps.

We will transfer Agents in the same way. And also evolve Agents. Fun Times! View quoted note →

I believe I have successfully transferred the first digital asset, "The Egg of Hope", from one user to another, using bitcoin taproot and nostr. Now for the harder task of verifying and documenting everything.

Market is almost there. Final step is trading with cryptographic proof.

It is possible to notarize anything digital. Anything notarized is tradable. The time chain becomes the witness. That is all you need.

"While we continue to believe in the opportunity and potential of Nostr as a technology, we refuse to compromise on providing a great user experience. Consequently, we have discontinued ZBD Social in the app" The root problem is that research shows, that social networks degrade over time, if there is no penalty for dishonest behaviour. What is needed is both upvotes and downvotes. Zaps and antizaps.

A nice idea! "We seriously consider replacing Relay URLs with nostr pubkeys assigned to the relay, and then have relays publish their IP address and TLS key or certificate."

Don’t forget — payments are just the first app of Bitcoin. The breakthrough is the ability to save and transact in a monetary unit that isn’t rigged. But beyond that lies an even greater idea: a truly free market, immune to manipulation. That’s the revolution. And we’re just getting started.

Satoshi was right. The chapter on SPV in the white paper plus this little formula enables the first truly global free-market commerce on bitcoin and nostr: IF address + assethash == unspent THEN user OWNS asset IF address + assethash == closed THEN user SOLD asset That's it. That's all you need.

Once you create a #nostr NFT, the first step is to tie it to a UTXO. This is done by tweaking your npub by the, the NFT JSON hash. What could be easier?
