Reminder that nostr:nprofile1qqsrhuxx8l9ex335q7he0f09aej04zpazpl0ne2cgukyawd24mayt8gprfmhxue69uhhq7tjv9kkjepwve5kzar2v9nzucm0d5hszxmhwden5te0wfjkccte9emk2um5v4exucn5vvhxxmmd9us2xuyp has done more to bring Bitcoin closer to the web than anyone else I can think of. That guy literally invented LNURL, a protocol that has become a standard. He laid the foundations for LNbits. He single-handedly on-boarded more people to Lightning with lntxbot than the vast majority of professional wallet companies.

These days he's a little preoccupied with the purple protocol but we won't forget his contributions to the orange one ๐Ÿซก๐Ÿงก

I didn't know about this. I thought his first relevant contribution to the community was the #nostr spec.

Thx for sharing

I LOVE YOU nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ”ฅ

One of the best around

We see him on StackOverflow, sometimes. ๐Ÿคญ From like, a decade ago, or something.

Satoshi? How do you know your distance from the web?

I feel blessed ... just to have witnessed such selfless work !

Seems to be a reoccurring pattern with him ๐Ÿ˜…

Builds cool stuff then gets jaded with it.

Hopefully he doesn't sour on Nostr the same way he seemed to with LN.

tbf he hated LN while he was working on it. if you don't accept compromises, you can't build anything, anywhere.

Thank you, but LNbits was mostly Ben and then the Basque guy, LNURL was Anton. And lntxbot never existed, it was an illusion. I'm proud of this though: https://github.com/nbd-wtf/soma

He invented coinflips, what a legend <3

Shoulda called them Parra-Dice

This is lightning stuff not Bitcoin stuff but obviously nostr retards have a hard time comprehending that

sounds like it's at least worth considering when he says that Drivechains are Bitcoin's best chance
