Sometimes your best work done is in a state of depression. I think there's good reason for this because you end up isolating away a lot of the stuff that matters and focus on very few things. If one of those few things is an idea or some kind of work you never let go of, I think it says a lot about the nature of that idea or work. It exists in a bigger picture.

Wow writing the software to create your first nutzap with NIP-60 and NIP-61 is genuinely a wild feeling. It’s a combination of many wonderful technologies creating something visceral. 2025 is going to be an amazing year. @calle you rock!

Want to work a Cashu project I haven't fully sorted out yet on an edtech app: 1. User moves Bitcoin from Cash App to the edtech app using cashu 2. Users select a receiving wallet, be it a school, person or what have you 3. User answers a question, creates a token, and sends that token to the receiving wallet 4. Receiving token accumulates sats based on student's progress and can then offboard to a private hot/cold wallet to save or use their bitcoin Are there any limits I should be aware of @`calle 👁️⚡👁️`or is something like this feasible?

I feel like Bluesky is kinda like Reddit.

First time I ever place my app in an AppStore will be with nostr on nostr apps. It’ll be nostr’s first education app 🎉 It’ll be up soon, just hard to manage everything else with marketing, sales and community building with pretty beat up sleep schedule >.<

so hard to get my sleep in order 😖

Been eating healthier to reverse some of the damage of burnout and abusing my body through workaholism. Never gets old feeling gratitude for good food.

Onboarded roughly 700 new users to nostr since launching a UX experiment. Pretty promising results since onboarding either nostr is so good when competing against algorithm attention cycles.

Despite being able to drive some traffic to nostr using my education technology and UX strategy, I’ve more or less abandoned an account with 130,000 followers. The reason for this is because I actually cared about those folks but most algorithm platforms treat following as a signal for algorithm curation rather than to generate a community or network of people. It’s better to start over and to market to people I “care less about” in the sense that I don’t have any identity-based reasons to connect other then to focus on distribution, that is, the distribution of education and the decentralization of identity. It’s a tough choice to make, but one that is more operationally sustainable. I genuinely hate the feeling of identity consumption.

#asknostr are you interested in learning how to code using a nostr native platform?

X is the platform for free speech, but only if you pay monthly to express thoughts greater than 280 characters lol

Not sure if it’s me but feels like coconut water is becoming the new orange juice. There’s a problem in American grocery stores where all fruit juice is just flavored sugar water; no nutritional value. And all the nutritional drinks are super premium priced.
