I checked it out. Looking forward to hear you speak about it Jason and how it will make Nostr better 🤙🏻 [777095]

We gonna be scanning retinas at #nostrica?

Scanning is so much better than probing! I really should’ve run this by you first! 😂 Nah. It’s literally just one human vouching that there is another human behind a given account - as opposed to a spam bot. But of course, there will be rules that are meant to prevent people from cheating the system. Those rules aren’t built into the version that’s currently live. Right now you could spin up a bunch of accounts and verify them. So the rules will be what makes it interesting. 🤓

🤣 I think the Worldcoin dudes tried probing each other first, but didn’t scale to their users. That’s very cool though, looking forward to checking it out!

If you are at nostrica, let’s catch up

Lol. Thank the great nostrich I don’t know what Worldcoin is! Sounds painful. 😅

😳 Sounds horrific

“I’ve been very interested in things like universal basic income and what’s going to happen to global wealth redistribution,” Sam Altman, Worldcoin’s cofounder and the former President of Silicon Valley accelerator Y Combinator, told Bloomberg, which first reported on the company last summer. Worldcoin was intended, he explained, to answer the question “Is there a way we can use technology to do that at a global scale?” Guess ChatGPT is fine

Yea… terrifying. Get everyone’s biometric data with Worldcoin, then use the public to train my ChatGPT AI.

Could Satoshi have been a sentient A.I., would an A.I. value Bitcoin?

Thanks for the update 💜 Why is it called Moscow Time btw?

Sent back to save humanity?

It's hard to exclude as possible and yeah that to seems like a mission in the spirit of Satoshi.

No, I had not! Thanks for the dm, you should post about it. Early internet folklore is pretty interesting 🤙

Btw… You weren’t the only one who got retina scanning vibes from the old Verified Human name. 😂 Of course the idea itself is the exact opposite. It’s an inclusive invitation based relay (in the works) where the only criteria to get invited is to not be a spam bot. I devised it to respect anonymity above all else. Instead of using gov id (like FB) or swiping identity revealing credit cards (Twitter). NotaBot uses social proof of work and reputation to build a scalable web of trust. Identity actually doesn’t even play a role. It doesn’t matter who you are, only that you are not a spam bot. So after some much appreciated feedback at Nostrica from people like #[5]​ and @Mills I decided to change the name to

NotaBot - Join the humans in the fight against spam bots on Nostr.

Web site created using create-react-app

(not a bot). I already had the domain, it sounds better, more to the point, etc. I also updated the home screen copy to address the value prop right away and added a more extensive write up on how it works. Hope this clears things up, and that you and crew take a look at it with fresh eyes. Everybody is looking for novel ideas that leverage Nostr’s unique qualities, and I think this fits the bill. Hit me up with any questions. I love this project and I’m always happy to talk about it. 💜

Although it's fun, getting onto Nostr at this level was some hoop jumping. Mostly I need an outlet for about a books worth of crazy Bitcoin related research. Dm me about projects, I'm always interested
