🙋♀️ I have a question, how does Nostr stop bots? Isn’t someone going to figure out how to infiltrate this too?
Discussion
It will be stopped with bitcoin lightning. For example, if somebody wants to reply to your, they have to pay sats that is configured by you.
How does the average person do this?
Can't stop bots , adding some kind of cost to creating a private key destroys the permissionless nature of it and creates a barrier. While at the same time making someone, somewhere in charge of what this barrier is, should be.
they will always find a relay ...
Paid relays. Put your attention behind a Bitcoin paywall, go to https://relay.exchange for a list of services
Thanks
self-moderation and perhaps eventually a consensus mechanism on the protocol level. As in X users on note Y blocked / flagged account Z. This gets relayed across the network for other relays (users) to verify and forming a consensus banning the content, bots or whatever.
But for now I'd say self-moderation and selection of good relays. I don't get much spam but I also don't use many relays.
I see ok that makes sense
