Fucking newbs. We are lucky coming from bitcoin, and understanding pitfalls of something that seemingly makes sense, such as a "foundation". I don't think there has ever been an open protocol that became hardened against centralising forces more than bitcoin. It's a unique experience that equips us well for building something like nostr.

When did the term "apolitical" become political?

I couldn't agree more. Bitfest was a reboot of the sorts of events that first inspired me to work on bitcoin. No corp/political agendas, cliques or vip nonesense, just peers hanging and exchanging ideas. View quoted note →

It’s so odd that for most jobs, you’re required to have a bank account so your employer can pay your hard-earned money into it, and then, by the bank’s good grace, you’re allowed to access the money you actually earned. While the private bank recklessly mismanages your money and surveils your spending. A weird and recent arrangement dressed up as normal and inevitable. Fuck banks.

I hate that stupid soothing voice some ceo types cosplay. Like the mfs are doing some guided meditation, once you notice them do it, you can't stop.

Thank you organizers of #bitfest! It was an absolutely cracking conference: speakers, attendees, venue, vibe, everything 👌 . No corp nonesense, just type of excellent peers that inspired me early on in #bitcoin. Exactly what #bitcoin/#nostr needs. Og style mf #bitfest 😍

@Derek Ross convincing me that vibe coding is actually a good thing. I really liked his idea that early on the web expectations were lower so more people could build, now vibing makes building more accessible again 🤔 #bitfest

Ace panel on podcasting at #nostrshire, with Shortfiat, Oscar, Avi. Well done #bitfest for putting this together 🙌

How does this only have 100 views? Notzi nodes! It's the naughtiest bitcoin song I think

This is the coolest thing! Wow Well done @arbadacarba 🥳 View quoted note →

I'm so excited about #bitfest tomorrow. In a sea of bitcoin conferences it really has the vibe of one of those early conferences I loved so much.
