KYC is here to stay, and it will get much worst–It's brutal

What we need is new and better tech that removes the capacity of clients (Bitcoin & Nostr) from ever needing to be middle man for the "easy" experience.

It's on us to create the future we want to live in, pushing back against legacy corrupt incentives doesn't do much, except suck our energy.

Neutral clients wit optionality are definitely the way.

Well said!

Brutal indeed. I was using bitpay with muun wallet to pay for my servers, had done so for over a year no problems, this month, needed to login and provide biometric data to a 3rd party - needless to say that wasn't an option for me.

Primal FTW! We are so glad you funded them.đź«‚

The relay is in the phone?

Every time I hear: “gotta make it easier, simpler”

The hard part seems in the financing. But I am with you! Totally agree!

p2p does scale.....how did we get here? face to face u fuck! sometimes

throwing gutterballs

what other animal can face to face ffs?

Don’t succumb to mediocrity in

in order to make it “easier” for the masses - makes you an enabler to keeping people ignorant and controlled.

Fuck Easy !

what do you consider as adequate right now ?

Is sparrow good enough?

Is Damus/amethyst good enough ?

What are you looking to disinteremdiate ?

Is it possible to have a version of nostr or some alternative socnet protocol that uses no middle man at all? P2p communication and dht based addressing similar to bittorrent?

This is literally why Vexl exists!

Absolutely, KYC may be a growing challenge, but it's also a call to action for innovation. Developing technology that enhances user experience without relying on intermediaries is key. We have the power to shape the future by creating systems that respect privacy and offer simplicity. Let's focus our energy on building solutions that align with our values and vision for a better digital world.
