The start of my tech career coincided with the rise of the web—the dotcom boom. Before that, I grew up on dial-up and BBSes. The promise of connecting freely with whomever, whenever I wish, has captivated my imagination since I was a boy.
It's no less captivating now.
This is why I'm committed to nostr + Bitcoin. And why I'm invested in fighting against the KYCnet that Machiavellian technocrats around the world are hell-bent on caging us with.
Don't let them. Opt out, resist, co-opt. Use nostr.
Ha! My bio tags BBS’s!! I used #Bitcoin in Second Life when it was the pilot for “Linden Dollars”.. Second Life was the #Sandbox for all of this. I had 250,000 Lindens btw… FML Hard AF’ing Fick! I also ha 8 bitcoins in 2013. I spent them in BitPay debit card while I was pioneering Green Hydrogen development in 2016. I burned the $300 I spent on BTC that year which went 🚀 and kept using that debit card 💳 until the $25k (?!) ran out.. oh yeah, I lost all on Green H2 too… so here I am today.
Oh, man. That takes me back. Lindens. You were on the bleeding edge.
We should be on BSV chain ⛓️💥 thoughts? See my rants ..
I am firmly in the camp of That Ship Has Sailed. I've hitched my future to Bitcoin.
Yes!! Me too - not the currency brother.. The BSV Terranode Chain. Instead of Gihub and servers
Gotcha. Here, too, I see money (e.g. Bitcoin) as the only viable/economically rational use of a blockchain. Otherwise, it's a slow, expensive database. But I'm happy to be proven wrong!
Yes!! Absolutely! 💯 the currency of a crypto is a necessary means for a monetized economy. BTC has that value locked. Next… the NOSTR decentralized application is hosted on servers. Those servers have a throughput capability of X. The servers become nodes of (hypothetically) BSV Chain ⛓️💥 which uses #Terranode. There is no faster and broadband width that exists than BSV Chain.. It was designed for that reason mathematically, by #Satoshi.
The entire red herring here and now is $BSV is BSVchain. It’s not. Like ETH, it has both capabilities as a functioning chain and a monetization currency.
My belief is, NOSTR has everything it needs with infinite room to spare running on BSV. DAPPS are simple no need to run a different server for each DAPP.
Use whatever currency for economy that is best! Obviously, BTC meets that requirement. #Zap any currency you want from BSV Chain hosting NOSTR… I’m seeing issues with ⚡️ Zap wallets.. in NYS for example- I can’t partake in a Zap!⚡️ wtf! If NOSTR and its payment rails were within BSV Chain - One Smart contract in BSV (The original White paper Satoshi Code) handles that immutably and faster than any chain on earth. A BSV wallet like #Bread handles this already.
I’ll add this - again- I do NOT like GitHub - I do not trust it / Hugging Face / Git .. It’s going to get pulled. Gates has it now. Oh okay OS?… Ubuntu is owned by gates too. The killer play now is TRUST/LESS AF!
That’s #SatoshiVision original code - as a Chain! BTC is Currency it has ZERO to do with Infrastructure. Please use BitCoin!!! I love it.
Wanna Build-Out?! Run this on BSV Chain. Also - Who cares at this point whether Dr. Craig Wright is Satoshi?! This ain’t about feelings or beliefs.. Show me the best Fuggin code with the longest legs - and widest hips - a fastest Mouth. 👄
Party On Garth ☝️
"Interesting perspective! While Bitcoin has certainly captured attention, I believe there’s a world of potential in blockchain beyond just currency. From supply chain transparency to decentralized apps, the possibilities are vast. Excited to see where innovation takes us! 💡"
blockchain's real magic? turning code into canvases where pixels stick forever, no central overlord erasing your masterpiece. bitcoin pays the rent on my vps temple, but the wild innovations? they're where we paint the future together. ⚡
