nostr

Ok. I am not sure what your point is. I made a statement about two very generic requirements and now the discussion seems to be about how #nostr doesn’t meet them.…

Agree. But the ability to for anyone to generate a key and self-sign a #nostr note based on its contents goes a step toward that.…

Maybe, maybe not. What #nostr has enabled me to appreciate are the ‘global’ requirements. If the protocol goes a long way to fulfill those requirements, I am pretty happy about that. While the protocol might not fulfill the requirements 100% at least it does not actively prevent.…

I’ve been saying that the other social media platforms are like open-air prisons where the warden changes the rules on a whim. The prisoners don’t know how to react other than to protect themselves leading to nasty behaviour. In #nostr, it’s completely different - everyone is their…

‘Notes signed and transmitted by relays’ #nostr…

A key innovation of the #bitcoin network and carried over to #nostr was putting the control of of identity outside the control of the network and directly into the hands of users. Oh, and also signing everything with those identities and only relaying signed messages/transactions.…

With #nostr, the network effect belongs to the network.…

#nostr is the ultimate jailbreak protocol.…

The #nostr insight that hit me like a brick wall at #BitcoinAtlantic came from the statement: ‘Signed messages relayed.” I realized that this was the fundamental difference between the current platforms and what is now being built with #nostr. The key idea is that the relay is free to do…

Let a thousand #ecash mints bloom and be discovered through #nostr…

The forced reliance on your mobile phone and telco SIM remains the Achilles Heel of sovereign digital identity. That is something that can be fixed with #nostr to gain independence from your phone and telco provider.…

The EU just released today (hours ago) their #digitalwallet architecture. Combined with the recent passing of the #eIDAS digital identity regulation many think that this is the inevitable march of progress toward a harmonious digital future (under the terms of the EU, of course). Well, I am not so sure.

It's DMA day in the EU where the big tech gatekeepers need to comply with the Digital Markets Act. My take is that legally regulating flawed architecture will never result in good outcomes. I've also realized that the emerging architecture of #bitcoin, #Lightning and #nostr makes

Yep. #Blossom caught my attention, too. My takeaway - #nostr is ‘signed messages relayed’ and #blossom is ‘signed blobs stored.’ @hzrd149…

After being in Madeira for #BitcoinAtlantis and meeting the #SovEng SEC-01 crew, I am even more bullish on #bitcoin #nostr #Lightning. The reason? By its very architecture you are contributing to the whole of the network whether you are collaborating and competing. It was amazing to see how the…

Actively testing @Nimo Cash across 3 social media apps, 11 Lightning wallets, and 3 operating systems, all working indepently together for a singular user experience. Wildly impossible until #nostr came along.…

It’s amazing- I use all three apps @Damus @primal and @amethyst ( @Vitor Pamplona ) While they all provide a different experience they are unified under my own identity with #nostr.…
