James you gotta verify your NOSTR account somehow so we know this one is legit. Plenty of people are bound to try to impersonate you on here

I thought I did that. I’ll confirm

You'll know it's there when you have the checkmark and a "james@[websitename].com" below your profile name.

Great meeting you at the conf btw 🫡
