"CR" for short. Edited "Kicking the Hornet's Nest" (everything Satoshi wrote publicly in chronological order). Made the Nostr Wiki at https://nostrwiki.vercel.app and Nostr bridges: Nostrdon (with Mastodon) & Hostr (with Hive). Home page: https://crrdlx.vercel.app

Something tells me this Satoshi dream vision nonsense isn't going to end well. Somehow, somebody is getting rekt.

Hard to believe, but Jan 1 means the @Wusang game on Hive is 3 years old. https://wusang.vercel.app

Was reading a bit on Satoshi's #8 citation by William Feller. Learned a little about Markov chains. Fun to watch a sim. Circle A has a 60% chance to stay put, 40% change to fling over to B. B has 20% chance to stay, 80% to fling. Love the B in glorious #bitcoin orange!

Frustrating. I had it running for a good while no problems, had to change mastodon server 'cause server 1 went kaput, now bridge is broke and I can't get it going. Argh! Why dis hard? :)

test - trying to bridge nostr to mastodon

I realized I'm currently typing on almost the exact same old laptop. Ouch. (But the dang thing still works.)

Just learned that I have some content from early 2000s that is being scraped by AI (Google's Gemini) and shown in search results. First reaction, "This stinks, they're using my content without permission or anything in return." Second reaction, "This is great, another way to reach my content." And to be fair, they do include an active link emoji to my content.

I lean toward the "This is great..." option kinda for the same reason I like the Nostr to Bluesky and X and Mastodon bridges...

Network effects gonna network.

Anybody know the locale for a current how-to to bridge Nostr over to Mastodon? (I had it running for a good while no problems, had to change mastodon server, now it's broke and I can't get it going.)

Just made a snowman. He came out looking a bit like a crazy-man. But, I llike that he's got a sorta laser eyes thing going on. He's locked in.

Cashu is not an alternative to non-custodial Bitcoin. Nothing beats holding your own keys.

Cashu Ecash is for custodial systems that respect user privacy, have better censorship resistance, and allow half-offline peer-to-peer payments that are instant.

The days of corporate blockchains are over. They make no sense at all, they're centralized, and they are peak inefficient. Ecash beats all of that. It's fast, lightweight, and cheap. If you're running a service, you should consider integrating Ecash for your users.

There are already dozens (!!!) of mints out there, run by organizations, companies, or communities. Among these companies are custodians, wallet providers, LSPs, and online shops.

When will we see the first ecash in-game currency?

Cashu now has native mobile wallet apps, headless server wallets, web wallets that work in the browser, and wallets for social media clients. We have mint implementations in Rust, Python, Golang, and like 5 other languages.

We have tiny invisible wallets that live in web pages.

We're working on an authentication scheme that balances operator control and user privacy as best as possible. You can decide who can use your mint.

We have a dozen different open-source libraries and wallets that are improving every day.

It's all yours.

We're just getting started and the new year is going to be massive. After two years of crazy work on an entirely new protocol, things are starting to take shape.

We have a vision which is to bring Bitcoin to every corner of the internet. Ecash will bring us there.

Thank you everyone who believed in us, especially those who contribute to this project. Cashu has become a place where you can improve your coding skills, learn to collaborate, work on open-source, and do literal magic ✨ (cryptography).

Next year is going to be massive 🫡🥜

>When will we see the first ecash in-game currency?

Not even close to what you're talking about, but I built an ecash "treasure hunt" prize into my "ahem, game" Wusang" Isle of Blaq.

Ten years ago today was the"Bitcoin Bowl"...American football game. Remember that? Info at:

Got out yesterday for a Christmas afternoon walk. Came to a fork in the path and wondered, "Should I go left or right? "

#nature #Christmas

Yes, Merry Christmas to you, good sir.
