Has anybody built a Discord equivalent on Nostr protocol yet? •Discord Will Require a Face Scan or ID for Full Access Discord will require users to verify their age via a face scan or ID to remove teen- appropriate restrictions starting next month. Unverified users will face limitations, including access to age-restricted servers, filters on content, and DMs from unknown users being filtered. Verification options include a video selfie analyzed by AI or submitting an ID, which will be processed by third-party vendors and typically* deleted after verification.

Pavel Durov, founder of Telegram: 🇪🇸 *My message to Telegram users in Spain* ❗️ Pedro Sánchez’s government is pushing dangerous new regulations that threaten your internet freedoms. Announced just yesterday, these measures could turn Spain into a surveillance state under the guise of “protection.” Here’s why they’re a red flag for free speech and privacy: 1. Ban on social media for under-16s with mandatory age verification: This isn’t just about kids—it requires platforms to use strict checks, like needing IDs or biometrics. ⚠️ Danger: It sets a precedent for tracking EVERY user’s identity, eroding anonymity and opening doors to mass data collection. What starts with minors could expand to all, stifling open discourse. 2. Personal and criminal liability for platform executives: If “illegal, hateful, or harmful” content isn’t removed fast enough, bosses face jail. ⚠️ Danger: This will force over-censorship—platforms will delete anything remotely controversial to avoid risks, silencing political dissent, journalism, and everyday opinions. Your voice could be next if it challenges the status quo. 3. Criminalizing algorithm amplification: Amplifying “harmful” content via algorithms becomes a crime. ⚠️ Danger: Governments will dictate what you see, burying opposing views and creating echo chambers controlled by the state. Free exploration of ideas? Gone—replaced by curated propaganda. 4. “Hate and polarization footprint” tracking: Platforms must monitor and report how they “fuel division.” ⚠️ Danger: Vague definitions of “hate” could label criticism of the government as divisive, leading to shutdowns or fines. This can be a tool for suppressing opposition. These aren’t safeguards; they’re steps toward total control. We’ve seen this playbook before—governments weaponizing “safety” to censor critics. On Telegram, we prioritize your privacy and freedom: strong encryption, no backdoors, and resistance to overreach. ✊ Stay vigilant, Spain. Demand transparency and fight for your rights. Share this widely—before it’s too late.

BITCOIN’s Stock-to-Flow ratio is about 114 at the moment, and growing the coming years. GOLD’s S2F ratio is about 80 and will keep incrementing, albeit more slowly. SILVER’s S2F ratio is difficult to assess, as it’s stock is difficult to determine, as much silver is consumed by industries rather than stocked. Anything between 50 down to 20 or less That’s why I suspect silver’s current rally may be short lived.

"Spanish PM Pedro Sánchez DEMANDS the END of online anonymity — calling for every social media account, Nostr included, to be linked to an EU Digital ID Wallet. At the World Economic Forum, Sánchez declared: “No one can walk the streets with a mask — so why allow people to roam online without revealing their identity?” #WEF
