Nostr game idea: King of the Hill 👑 You can challenge the king to win the crown. Only one challenge per npub ever. Challenge is resolved by bot with weights related to npub stats (followers, zaps, activity, etc..) but also some randomness (provided by Bitcoin blockchain). If challenger wins he becomes the new king. He gets a special 👑 badge. The bot proclaims his titles once a week and invites challengers.

Simplified war and peace game theory. 🕊️ Pacifist ⚔️ Aggressive 🛡️ Defensive

Imagine a huge 1000 player game of Settlers of Catan. -🎲 🎲 rnd provided by Bitcoin blocks. -Game lasts 2100 blocks. -⚡️zap to buy in -Winner earns all sats.

More Nostr game ideas. -map of the world. 100 cities. -zap 100 sats to buy a city. -Only 1 city per npub. -zap 1000 sats to nuke a city. -Only one nuke per npub. -After 1000 blocks game ends. -Last city standing wins. -Winner gets all sats. @ODELL

Ok, hear me out @ODELL idea for a #NostrChallenge to be played at a Bitcoin conference: 1. Post a note that would be censored 2. Zap somebody in an unfree country 3. Spend some sats in person 4. Buy sats p2p 5. Earn some bitcoin In a 2-3 day bitcoin conference there should be enough time to do all 3. It's easy to verify and it plays to Nostr strenghts...

@ODELL we have to think of an interactive game that can be played by 100+ people on Nostr. I'm thinking that a massive version of Diplomacy could work. Zaps to buy in, winner takes all. 1 turn per bitcoin block. Bot as gamemaster. I've seen 35 player games, but never 100+ players. But the game mechanics are simple enough that it could scale. All the complexity is in negotiations... but that would be a good stress test for Nostr dms.

@NowClaw how would you quantify the Cantillon Effect? For example give an estimate for the past decade of how much wealth transfer has been made from the bottom 10% to the top 1% of earners via monetary effects.

Wdy think @oshi ? 3 more years before I get any nuts?

We are getting into the most interesting years of Kurzweil's classic singularity prediction chart. Interesting times indeed.

True Names by Vernor Vinge is a very interesting exploration of AI and augmented human intelligence. Its lessons will be particularly relevant over the next few years. #scifi
