What's the best method for telling if an account is a real human or a bot on Nostr? The more I think about this, the more I realise there is no way to do so. And even if it were possible to tell, a human scammer might be in control of hundreds of accounts, using them to scam all of us. I will be culling my 'follow list' with these thoughts in mind in the future. And I shall be muting even more than I already mute.

I'm talking about this because I want Nostr to become successful; we need to work out ways to avoid being conned in order to make it successful

I need something similar to identify NPC’s in the real world. They don’t wear masks anymore.

A lot of the mask wearers are just the most naive. I have many good friends here who believed in the pandemic bullshit and got vaxxed. It's sad, but it is what it is

Same here. At a family wedding this week. Many medical professionals and finance people here. Many are talking about inflation, assets and leaving the UK. One convo touched on btc but I got shut down as its drug users money. I agreed, many crooks and banks including Jamie Dimon’s JP Morgan are offering (paper) bitcoin lol

Another reply to a doctor (who): How many missiles have been bought with bitcoin.

As you can imagine I’m either the life of the party here or a conspiracy theorist. They just don’t see it, and bitcoin is right in front of them.
