The odds of nuclear armageddon can increase while deaths in war also go down. Both can be true at once.

It's not nostr vs social media, it's nostr vs the foundations of the web: it's nostr vs the URL.

GM Nostr, glad you exist

If BIP110 results in a chain split, ETFs might pick the wrong chain.

You should tie bitcoin to your npub. Because it's *useful.* Right now, knowing your nsec is compromised requires the person who compromised it to be a white hat. That's the entire security model. I've thought about key compromise since day one and this solves a massive headache. Bitcoin on the npub is the most explicit pay-for-your-privacy system online. You choose the size of the carrot, and you only pay if it fails. The money never leaves your hands unless your nsec is already compromised. If the funds move, you know. Immediately. The more you leave on the npub, the harder it is for someone holding your nsec to sit still. The previous incentive for black hats was to sit on an nsec as long as possible and collect as much compromising data as possible. Now they have to weigh stealing the funds directly vs hoovering up private data indefinitely. Every day they wait, they're paying an opportunity cost you set. The effect is that your private DMs and other encrypted material are safer, because the sooner the canary dies, the sooner you move off the nsec and the less future data gets compromised. @Alex Gleason @Vitor Pamplona

Who runs nostr.com?

AI and religion both give humans instructions. The alignment problem is shared. It's the problem of aligning an instruction set. #AI

So BCHNostr is a closed source web site which generates the user nsec and wallet for them. Hmm

Nostr License — driver's-license-style card maker

Nostr is most likely to survive the AIpocolypse of all social media. When nobody believes anything online, Nostr will still be real and verifiable. The WoT here will remain.

Who holds the BCH when you deposit it? Is BCHNostr trying to rug pull? View quoted note →

modernity is dumb. it depends on surplus and lasts only until it runs out.

having money on my nsec is a canary in the coal mine for the security of my dm's.
