The fact that it could just be a programming platform instead of a shoehorned currency scheme. I don't think turning a great form of money into a joke by shoehorning a programming platform into it is a good idea.

That and Vitalik looks like a cybernetic alien.

Do you dislike ZKPs?

Yes. They can be stored elsewhere with no downside. Storing them on chain is like carving the history of france into the Eiffel Tower. It's good to have written somewhere, but why there?

Permanence and availability. Same reason we record our ledger entries on the chain.

Yeah centralized availability is not smart, which is my point. Nostr isn't a single chain, highly available and permanent (if enough nodes persist) why not use that?

Immuteability. Same reason we publish to the chain. No take backs.

And your Nostr relay is muteable how...?

Jb55 has nuked the Damus relay at least once.

*your* relay. Mempool.space could nuke theirs too.

I could delete my relay? Or remove events? Immuteable means it can't change.

This is true of Bitcoin as well, man. You you broadcast a note to yourself it's like running the only node on the BTC network, you could make a transaction then reorg yourself. This is apple to apples here. Then bitcoin is not "immutable" either.

No one is making bitcoin script a programming platform.

You don't know that, also, the possiblities with a 100kb OP_RETURN are quite vast.
