Publishing indiscriminately to *all known relays* is making some pretty bold assumptions about the importance of your message and the audience you intend to reach. How is this not considered spam?

Don’t concern yourself with spamming relays to maximize reach. If your message has resonance, it will travel.

nostr is signed json. We have not even begun to scratch the surface of different ways to broadcast and subscribe to messages. Personally I think websockets kinda suck but here we are talking. It’s working. There are so many other patterns and transport protocols. Viva la nostr.

The work @jb55 is doing on nostrdb is remarkable. If every phone is also a relay, using cashu we’ll finally be able to do truly P2P digital payments. View quoted note →

Powell on national television testifying that there will be bank failures in the coming years. But have no fear, it will only be the small and medium sized banks. The Fed is not a conspiracy... he's plainly and publicly describing how they will consolidate power.

The ah-ha for me with Cashu didn't happen until I created my first token and it didn't require a recipient or a destination address. You have to go through the motions to realize how incredibly unique that is for a product in the digital payments space. 🤯
