I'm sure this has already been discussed, but does anyone know if there's like a standardized "max request size" for relays? For example, if I open a subscription with an authors array of with 1000 pubkeys, that seems to work as expected, but trying to match against 10,000 pubkeys doesn't work at all - I'm assuming that relays just drop subscriptions with filters over a certain size, which makes sense, but I'd like to know what the limit is so I can truncate queries on the client side as necessary

If someone manages to apply LLMs to predict financial markets in a way that gives a significant advantage, there would be a strong incentive to keep that knowledge secret, which makes me wonder if it's already happening now. The other question that arises from this line of thought is whether it would matter at all if markets became fully automated. I actually don't think we'd notice.

It’s interesting that asymmetric key cryptography is now the basis for both the private sphere and the public sphere via encryption and signatures, respectively

The question of how to design a trending feed in a way that is simultaneously 1) Interesting 2) Hard to game 3) Actually decentralized leads down some deep rabbit holes
