you can use bitcoin on solana through a trusted intermediary
the analogy is sound
but it would be even more accurate to say primal is coinbase
Discussion
I can’t have bitcoin on Coinbase and then open my sparrow wallet to see my coins.
If we’re comparing it to bitcoin I think it’s more analogous to running your own node or using someone else’s. Or using Breez vs WoS.
of course no analogy will match exactly otherwise it wouldn't be an analogy
but I'm fine with yours too
just tell me what will happen when primal get a court order from turkey to censor someone
They comply. And you use another client that has better censorship resistance and worse Ux. Or fork their client and run it yourself with your own caching server.
does primal relay primal user notes to other relays? so you can drop your nsec in another app?
Yes. The relays listed in your settings on Primal are the ones where your notes will be written to and accessible from other apps.
thank you! so even if ISPs block primal.net and brick the app temporarily, we just pick up our keys and move the party somewhere else
Sure. If your ISP blocks Primal, if their caching relay goes down, if they start censoring users... You can just use a Nostr client that isn't affected.
