Yep. Meaningless. I’ve been joking that my next car will be a decentralized car.
Thanks! I’ll look into this.
Beware.
Apparently decentralized identifier + centralized platform is now being touted as a dEcEntRaLiZeD pLaTfOrM.
The funny thing is that the decentralized identifier is not even decentralized.
What to do about? That is the question.
Yup, now moving out of proof of concept phase

A primary motivation for me with #nostr #safebox is to create a completely portable ‘wallet’ (I prefer safebox) where I can store funds, secrets and proofs and invoke it from anywhere so long as I have the recovery phrase of 12 words. The concept is similar to a cold wallet, not intended to replace it, but this is more like a ‘hot wallet’ you have in the network you can access in times of emergency.
Years ago, when I was travelling in Europe (Finland, to be exact), I had my wallet ripped off. It was the worst feeling ever, and that feeling has stuck with whenever I travel now and I always take extra precautions. But I still imagine losing everything while travelling and I see this as a solution, where I could recover by accessing a safebox, paying for a new device and presenting the proofs that I need to travel and get back home. nostr:note1uz0kg8rexc6kdq8rajvt223nzxda60wy8py4ewaf8gckdlfwtycs9pqycj
Now that LLMs have largely trampled over everyone’s rights, I am seeing the beginnings of a discussion by a certain global organization to give those very LLMs their own rights and gender, too!
Gender is being discussed as a 32 bit integer value…
FWIW, I am experimenting with apps that have their own private key.
Someone should invent a Nostr Belay.
I was successful in using #nostr #safebox for this transaction.
I deposited the funds using one machine (my MacBook) and using the recovery phrase, sent the funds by accessing the safebox on an entirely different machine (a vps). Not only impossible to trace the fund flow, it was impossible to attribute the transaction initiation from any one device.
The proof of concept for #nostr #safebox is now largely complete. I am spending the next few months shoring everything up for an initial software release. nostr:note1wc5hnq82unun5k8hdxghcnf4q89wr2jlu008tfyvygya83jwkslqqpk26r
I feel that building an entirely new payment system using nostr/ecash/lightning/bitcoin is like starting from low Earth orbit.
Money is an extension of your promises over time and space.
Be your own digital immune system. nostr:note168lp9pt3k554jafhewdcfk6k87pttwhspn209mzrjh8yffhc3utq8htqqs
It’s all about innovating using a better form of money. It’s like going to the moon, but now your starting place is low Earth orbit, not Cape Canaveral.
Time and money
I love them! Reminds me of home (not my specific home)
Bitcoin is M0
Lightning is M0+
Ecash is M1
