My favourite thing in nostr is when devs build something new or share a new app and it goes viral and then everyone is trying it at the same time and everyone's feeds are full of it. First it was media, then videos, then badges, then zaps, then zapathons, then simpleX etc... And the vibes are high. 🤙🌐🗺️🌀

@jack Coinos paved the way. 👀 @Adam Soltys been building this in Vancouver and globally. Real recognize real.

I might be a Statechain truther... 👀🔑🔑🏡🔑

Has anyone looked into Statechains / Mercury Protocol? The premise is swapping/passing on Private Keys to trade value instead of moving sats from a UTXO to another. Cool in theory right? The coins get locked into a channel state and then you can pass on the priv key by using a multi SIG set up where a coordinator burns the old priv key and a new one is generated. (Its complex but this is the easiest way I can ELI5). I thought the idea had merit. But it sort of died and no one took it up. @calle @jb55 did you guys ever look into it? #AskNostr

Question and analyse even your own deepest convictions. Critical thinking is a full time endeavor.

Damn. The late 90s were PEAK and you can't convince me otherwise. #Y2KSurvivor

Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency.

@Derek Ross how are things on Nostr lately? Feels slow. 👀

2012-2018 was a piece of 🍰 compared to now. @Lyn Alden can we make the 4th turning go quicker? 😮‍💨

TIL: what the "Overton Window" is. Status Quo, Politically correct, Zeitgeist... tomato potato. #AskNostr - anyone have any cool quasi-political laws or social science theories? 👀 I had fun and dread reading about the 4th turning. And Occam's Razor is a good one.

AI is both under and over hyped. No time to explain. And Bitcoin is severely undervalued. 🙂‍↔️ -truth

Digital ID is coming to Visa. Godhelpusall.

Living thru a 4th turning is wild... There's a non-zero percentage chance Trump tweets suggesting this Halloween could be a Purge day. 😮‍💨

Decentralized and Open Source is so rad.
