one fun thing about building stuff is people telling you daily that you’re not building the right thing in the right order for the right people. Usually from people who haven’t built anything. I’m just trying to build *something* that hopefully works.

Haha, some people say Elon is in talks to buy TikTok before ban on the 19th.

Twitter/X has been banned in Pakistan for almost a year, but Nostr and Primal are working normally here, on desktop/laptop and mobile.

Pakistan needs Nostr and Primal. Gotta upgrade to Legend.

As many of you have probably guessed now, I'm trying to build a about Nostr website and Onboarding website for Nostr.

I need a few suggestions including features, also I need recommendations for people to feature on the home page, I want to add different categories for example,

One part could say "Nostr For Music" and I want to feature Nostr Artists, for example.

I also want to feature devs, Video Editors, Sellers, and others.

Thanks.

FiNanCiAl ADviSOrs are the “trust the science” of the financial world.

I've been having this idea gestating in my brain for a while, its part of something bigger that I'm trying to conceptualize but the gist of it is:

DVMs can make passive income from residential internet connections.

More and more websites are trying hard to penalize non-residential traffic with tons of catchas or straight up blocking the requests. Which means that you cannot just roll your own vps somewhere and use it as vpn as easily as it used to be.

Or try downloading a youtube video from it. But you would pay couple sats for it. Which means that any pleb that has a raspi or something else running somewhere at home could run a simple DVM that would download the video for the user and send it to them.

This is only the start, there are a lot more things we could do in a distributed way to basically provide a solution to a problem that many have, specially now in the days of AI where scrapping as much data as possible is something people are paying for.

Forget about trying to run LN nodes to earn an income. Just install a package on your umbrel, start9 or whatever platform you are using and start offering services.

And its not just about serving the people on nostr. We can build websites and abstract the DVMs away. We can use the normie world to fuel our parallel economy, using distributed compute to provide services that people want and are willing to pay for them.

And it actually is easier to do it this way than trying to engineer your way around the restrictions. Why pay for 1000s of proxies if you can have 1000s of people participating in your pool of compute?

I'm building this in Q1 if all goes well, but I'm sharing the idea with the world because the important part is it gets built. If anyone wants to take the lead, participate or just brainstorm hit me up!

NOSTR IS WHERE THE BEST PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET HANG OUT.

What is NWC? I’ve tried to learn through following the hash tag #nwc but I still don’t understand…
