I mean… is this really what’s going on? Is Nostr the “did” people have been philosophizing about? Trusted npubs can verify other npubs “proof of human”. Where does this all go? What are the nerds talking about ?

I don’t have a crystal ball. All I know is that with things like the UK’s digital ID inevitably eventually tying into CBDCs and internet usage, the need for technologies that allow us to escape that level of tyranny will only grow. Nostr and Bitcoin are perfectly situated to protect our ability to communicate and transact.
Plus they are genuine substitutes for the digital reputation and other supposed benefits of digital ID, but without the tyrannical aspects.
