Into Bitcoin since July 2011. Into Nostr since February 2023. Influenced by the works of Ayn Rand, Murray Rothbard, Ludwig von Mises, Andrew Galambos - and thought-provoking books including: The Sovereign Individual, How I Found Freedom in an Unfree World, The Path of Least Resistance, PT - The Perpetual Traveler. Professional drummer in my earlier life, digital nomad in my later life, and jazz lover most my life. We won't achieve meaningful freedom until four key "separations from the state" are done and dusted: Separation of church and state (mostly done), separation of money and state (in progress), separation of communication networks and state (early encouraging signs), separation of education and state (a long way to go).
The best way I can personally evaluate Nostr is to consider the time I've spent on it versus Twitter. When I look back over the past three weeks it's more than obvious I'm spending at least 3X the time here than on Twit. Conclusion? I clearly value Nostr more.
And the best part is, Nostr is just getting started. What we're experiencing now is "early adopter" stuff. Just think what could come down the pipeline in the next couple of years!
Time for a quick sats giveaway before I go out 😎
First 10 people to reply to this message with the words "zap me" will receive 1000 sats each.
Fast fingers first!
The easiest way to convert main-chain bitcoin to lightning sats is the use Muun wallet. With that you simply send bitcoin to it and from then on you can send out both bitcoin main-chain and Lightning payments from the same wallet. This is how I top up my Alby wallet for use with Nostr.
I like Snort but using it on Brave the menu is fixed at the top, so as I scroll down through the notes the menu disappears off screen - meaning I have to scroll right back to the top if I want to access notifications, messages, my profile or to do a search.
Is everyone else seeing this as I do? Curious.
Nostr is the global "Testflight" app for showing how bitcoin - via Lightning zaps - can revolutionise social media - by focusing entirely on the individual.
Zaps incentivise considered engagement, witty and thoughtful posts, meaningful communication and self-regulated good behaviour.
What's not to like. Just watch as this Nostr thing catches on!
