⚠️ Important Notice To everyone who follows me, I want to let you know that this account has been compromised. Earlier today, I accidentally entered my nsec (Nostr private key) on a phishing website after following a malicious link. Because of this, I can no longer consider this account secure. Please ignore any future posts, messages, or requests coming from this account, as they may not be from me. I will be creating a new Nostr account and will share my new npub as soon as it's ready. I hope you'll continue following me there. This has been a tough lesson, but I hope it also serves as a reminder to everyone: Never share or paste your nsec on any website or link sent by strangers. Your nsec is your identity. Keep it private. Thank you for your understanding, and stay safe out there. ❤️ image
Hi! I’m wondering why my post isn’t showing up in the feed. Also, I promoted a post about an hour ago with a $1 bid, but it’s still not appearing in the promoted section. Meanwhile, I noticed a newer promoted post with the same $1 bid is already showing up in the last spot. Is there something wrong, or am I missing something?
☕ Good morning! My day started with a scam phishing message. Instead of letting it ruin my morning, I took it as a reminder to stay alert. The crypto space is full of opportunities, but it's also a place where scammers are always looking for someone to click the wrong link. That's why it's important to verify websites, never share your private keys or seed phrase, and think twice before connecting your wallet. Learning isn't just about how BCH Nostr works—it's also about protecting ourselves and helping others stay safe. Let's continue learning, stay vigilant, and build a stronger, safer community together. Have a safe and productive day, everyone! 💚 image
These days, my magnifying glass is my most trusted writing companion. I use it to read, and I even check every letter, period, and comma before I hit "Post." Senior moments? Maybe. But I'd rather take my time than let a typo slip by! 😄🔍 image
Why did my edited post lose all the comments and reactions? 🤔 Imagine you wrote a note and gave copies to many people. Later, you found a typo. You can't erase the copies they've already received, so you write a new corrected note instead. That's how Nostr works. When you edit a post, it doesn't change the original one. It creates a new post with a new ID. That's why: 📝 The original post is replaced. 💬 The old comments stay on the original post. ❤️ The old reactions and zaps stay there too. ✨ Your edited post starts fresh. Tip: If your post already has lots of comments or zaps, think twice before editing. A small typo may be better than losing the conversation. image

Have you ever deleted a post on Nostr, but it still shows up on your profile? 🤔 In response to your query @wickedsoul Imagine you mailed a letter to many different post offices across the country. Later, you decide, "I want to delete that letter." So you send another message saying, "Please throw it away." Some post offices receive your delete request right away and remove the letter. Others are offline, slow to update, or simply don't honor deletion requests. Those copies remain there until they sync—or they may never disappear at all. That's how Nostr works. Your post isn't stored in one central server. It's copied to multiple relays. When you delete a post, you're actually sending a deletion request to those relays. If a relay accepts and processes that request, the post disappears. If it doesn't, the post may still be visible on that relay or in some Nostr clients. So if you still see a deleted post sometimes, it doesn't necessarily mean the delete failed. It usually means different relays are showing different versions of your data. 🟠 Think of deleting on Nostr like asking every post office to remove a copy of your letter. Some do it immediately, while others may take longer—or not do it at all. That's one of the trade-offs of a decentralized network. 🌐 image
☕ Good morning, BCH Nostr friends! 💚 Habang tumatagal, mas lalo nating nauunawaan kung paano gumagana ang Nostr. What once seemed confusing slowly becomes clearer through experience, shared knowledge, and the support of the community. Every question we ask, every post we read, and every interaction helps us grow—not just as users, but as contributors to a decentralized future. Learning is a journey, not a race. Let's keep exploring, keep sharing, and keep learning together. The more we understand today, the more we can help others tomorrow. image
📮 Where can you find your "post offices" in BCHNostr? In my previous post, I learned that relays are like post offices. They're the places where your posts are sent, stored, and shared with other people. That got me thinking... "If relays are my post offices, where can I actually see them?" 🤔 The good news is they're easy to find in BCHNostr. Simply go to: Profile → Settings (Edit Profile) → Relays There you'll see the list of relays your account is connected to. Think of them as the post offices responsible for delivering your letters (posts) to the rest of the Nostr network. If you're connected to active, reliable relays, your posts have a much better chance of reaching more people. If you're connected to inactive or poorly connected relays, your post may only reach a few users—or in some cases, only you. 💡 Lesson: It's a good idea to check your relay list every once in a while. Healthy relays help your posts travel farther across the Nostr network. Have you checked your relay list yet? image
I thought my earlier post was successfully published because it was visible on my own profile. I even boosted it twice—first for$ 0.35 , then again for $0.52 —expecting it to appear in the promoted feed. But there were no reactions or comments, which made me wonder if it had been hidden. Then Chucha told me she couldn't see the post at all. That's when I continued digging into the issue. After doing more research, I finally found the answer. The easiest way to understand it is to think of a relay as a post office. When you publish a post on Nostr, your app doesn't send it directly to everyone. Instead, it sends your post to one or more relays, just like dropping a letter at a post office. The relay's job is to store your post and deliver it to anyone who visits that relay. In my case, it seems my post was delivered to a relay that wasn't very active or wasn't well connected. Imagine dropping a letter at a small post office that rarely sends mail to other branches. Your letter is safely there, so you can still see it, but people checking other post offices may never receive it. That's why the post appeared on my profile but wasn't visible to many other users. It wasn't hidden—it just didn't propagate through the network. What I did was delete the original post and publish the same one again. This time it reached active relays, and the post immediately became visible to others. Lesson learned: If your post is visible only to you but not to everyone else, don't panic. It doesn't always mean it's hidden. Sometimes it's simply a relay propagation issue. Choosing active relays is like mailing your letter through a busy, reliable post office—it has a much better chance of reaching everyone. image

📚 Crypto Terminology: Support vs. Resistance 📊 Ever wondered why a coin's price sometimes stops falling or stops rising? 📖 The Story Imagine a coin is worth $100. It drops to $90, but many people think it's a good price to buy. More buyers come in, and the price starts going up again. 👉 That's called Support—a price level where buyers help stop the price from falling. Later, the coin climbs to $120. Many people decide it's a good time to sell and take profits. More sellers appear, and the price starts going down. 👉 That's called Resistance—a price level where sellers make it harder for the price to keep rising. 💡 Lesson 🟢 Support = Buyers step in, so the price often bounces up. 🔴 Resistance = Sellers step in, so the price often moves back down. Remember, support and resistance are not walls. If there are enough buyers or sellers, the price can break through them. ❓Which do you think is easier to spot on a chart—support or resistance? image

📚 Crypto Market Slang: Which Sea Creature Are You? 🌊🐋🦈🐬🐙🦀🐟🍤 Have you ever noticed that crypto traders are often compared to sea creatures? Imagine the crypto market as a huge ocean where every investor has a role. 🐋 Whale The giant of the ocean. Whales own a large amount of cryptocurrency, and their trades can sometimes influence the market. 🦈 Shark Smaller than a whale but still a powerful trader. Sharks make strategic moves and often have significant holdings. 🐬 Dolphin A medium-sized investor with a solid portfolio. Dolphins may not move the market, but they trade with experience and confidence. 🐙 Octopus Known for having many "arms," octopuses often spread their investments across different coins or projects instead of relying on just one. 🦀 Crab Crabs move sideways, just like a market that isn't going up or down very much. They're often associated with patient investors who aren't chasing every price movement. 🐟 Fish Everyday investors with modest portfolios. They keep learning, buying, and growing little by little. 🍤 Shrimp The smallest investors in the crypto ocean. They may only invest small amounts, but every whale started as a shrimp. 💡 Lesson In crypto, your size doesn't determine your success. Whether you're a 🐋 Whale, 🦈 Shark, 🐬 Dolphin, 🐙 Octopus, 🦀 Crab, 🐟 Fish, or 🍤 Shrimp, what matters most is continuing to learn, managing risk, and making smart decisions. ❓Which sea creature best describes your crypto journey? image
