Does the Bitcoin dev community have any plans to add privacy features? Most people don’t like the idea of their financial information being freely available to literally anyone and easily so to anyone they’ve transacted with.

One thing I think nostr does better than Fedi is financial incentives. Although, I do wonder about how relays will fair if server hosts and ISPs start cracking down on the content that passes through. It feels like it’s only slightly less vulnerable to that sort of thing than Fedi, and that’s only because accounts aren’t linked to the relays themselves. I also wonder how those financial incentives will affect the moderation of the relays, like maybe they’ll become even more hardcore echo chambers since the owner stands to lose money if they don’t purge unpopular views. Someone could easily just select a couple relays they know only have posts from people who affirm. Maybe I’m overthinking it, though.

So far, the fediverse has better variety in the userbase. Maybe that will change with time, but I feel like there’s more of a burden on users to make the experience good here, so I feel that it might never grow enough to get to a better spot.
