Lopp ( nostr:npub17u5dneh8qjp43ecfxr6u5e9sjamsmxyuekrg2nlxrrk6nj9rsyrqywt4tp) asked him the question i was wondering when i read that: shutting Bitcoin service providers or outright mining bans doesnt kill the network. Seems to be making a case around censorship resistance and PoW. Was surprised because i thought he had a solid history of Bitcoin-only advocacy

For some reason Parker thinks nostr isn't censorship resistant because it doesn't have PoW. He probably doesn't know there is a PoW NIP. He also probably hasn't considered that nostr's tight integration with lightning can act as a form of PoW (imposing economic costs on certain actions.)

PoW can cost as little as a single sat

Everyone deserves Nostr at the level of cope they deserve.
