It always makes me happy when I find #Bitcoin community notes.

I would like to see #Nostr as the global agora in cyberspace. For this to happen we need to gather and display the knowledge for those who come next. There is so much knowledge being shared on #Nostr. In form of links (to podcasts, websites, videos, books), but also in form of discussions and notes. The thing is that these information are not noticed by the people that weren’t present in that conversation. It’s also hard to find things. So I’ll propose a library on #Nostr. Alexandria. Decentralized in a global cyberspace. How it might work: - Voting system through #zaps for content quality - Combine with highlights (#[4]​) - Tags through #zap note (u have to vote and “pay” to add tags) - Highly valued content could be uploaded to special relays that just admit nodes with certain zap level and zap tags - Inspired by Fedi: every community (for example #bitcoin Nostr) has their library and it’s relay, financed through split zaps (for every zap I make I give like 2% to the library relay) - Could be a zero sum community model that the relay, if it gets to many zaps for the costs, pays back out to donors - Community cares about there knowledge so higher quality is expected - Community’s of different content can form links to point to crossover knowledge - Relays could be federated, protected by guardians - These relays can be found by hashtags - Searchable through #tags, valued by #zaps Next time history rhymes I want the next generation to find our discussions, knowledge and solutions. It might proof valuable, but in the very least it saves a lot of time. Thank you #[9]​ for the inspiration.

I think the “sat” denomination is a beautiful tribute to Satoshi. I feel he, she, they earned that. I trust people to be able to learn what a sat is. They managed with cent or penny. But do what ever you want… after all it’s #Bitcoin.

It is time for me to say thank you to two of my favorite thinkers / educators in the #bitcoin space: #[1]​ and #[2]​ The ideas and content that you guys produce is just so valuable for me. Preston got me thinking about bitcoin and the finance side of things and Gigi got me to think deeply about the rabbit hole in a technical and philosophical way. So here is one of my favorite conversations, between the two:

The latest book I finished: The Lessons of History -by Will and Ariel Durant A small book with big lessons. I spent at least as much time thinking about it as reading it. In my opinion well worth the time. There are to many good quotes and ideas to choose from, but what stuck with me the most was: “If a man is fortunate he will, before he dies, gather up as much as he can of his civilized heritage and transmit it to his children.” #books #bookstr
