There's a lot more Bitcoin and Nostr conferences and meeting than I would think. That's good.

What does it mean? Did he wrote NIP-13? Did he come up with the nonce method? Did he come up with the buy PoW service? What is the "tech that powers Nostr Proof of Work?"

Nostr pow is Hashcash 😛

I wrote nip-13, hashcash was adams idea

Wow, I had no idea that this was such an old and already established concept/idea... When I was reading NIP-13 I was like hmm that is nice, simple and elegant solution. Thank you for sharing. My today's Wikipedia free fall will start with Adam.

It’s a very elegant idea! Just counting the number of 0 *bits* at the start of the hash. Bitcoin uses a more sophisticated and granular approach by interpreting the difficulty as a 256-bit number. Hashcash’s downside is that it gets less granular for each bit

A dollar / euro per temporal bit is a good price

Counting the 0s at the start was my suggestion, on the one on only nostr conference call. You're welcome.

Bitcoin is so last decade. All the cool kids work on nostr now.

Yeah cause they were still in Kindgarden a decade ago 🤣

Time passes bro

Indeed and before you know it you'll turn 50 and go faaaaaaack, that was quick!

*Kidz🤷🏻‍♂️.

You’re standing outside the building with FOMO now right? 🤣

😂😂 I'm already inside 🥷🏻

lol Adam the nostr dev

the conversation is pointless, join the kaspa barefoot community and do some down to earth layer 1 transactions, wear kas watch and live on uranus

The words per minute difficulty adjustment is represented as well : )

One thing I don’t like about your app is that you cannot delete it if you made a mistake, I forgot to crop it

Working on this actually
