On Revolution.Social this week i talked to Blacksky founder Rudy Fraser. He talks about building on the ATprotocol but without being controlled by the Bluesky company. They run their own moderation, algorithms, identity servers, hosts (PDS), and are building an entire alt tech stack called rsky.
But what's most interesting to the Nostr and Bitcoin community is in this conversation we talk a lot about how to fix the money. We talk about needing to build an alternative financial system which is not owned or controlled by the state or corporations. We talk about the role of mutual aid in social change and building a future society we want to live in. And we talk about Cashu and how we're exploring bringing it in to the ATmosphere (how the they talk about the ATprotocol ecosystem beyond just bluesky).
It was a fascinating conversation, and i really hope that Nostr Bitcoiners take a listen as this is a conversation about permissionless protocols and freedom money which is very different from what we normally hear in bitcoin circles.
