No idea though if it is legit.

For about seven months after publishing Broken Money, I was so burned out from writing. I had written that book within a year, while also writing public articles and private client reports as usual. So I was basically just absolutely dead in terms of writing, had pushed myself a bit too far, and was kind of phoning it in for articles and reports the next few months with gradual recovery.

But within the past couple months, my writing energy has fully returned. So many articles in the pipeline, in various states of development!

I recently joined your Premium Service. It is great. After reading everything I came away with a portfolio goal:12 Stocks +12 ETFs + Bitcoin = 25 investments with a 4% median allocation. Saved many hours, much anxiety, and now will enjoy great returns. Highly recommended for people like me who would otherwise just be throwing darts blindfolded.

What’s a better term for the MSNBC/Fox/NYT/whatever companies: “corporate media” or “legacy media”?

I would use 'legacy media' to refer to the medium e.g. print, tv, radio. I would use 'corporate media' to refer the companies engaged.

Just had a genius idea for a nostr microapp after seeing this meme. Imagine a browser extension that adds a nostr-based comment section to any url. So you navigate to a zillow listing, open up the browser extension, and boom theres a nostr comment section for that listing. This could be a really compelling way to get normies to join nostr. I don’t have time to make this right now so I hope someone sees this and takes it upon themselves. Anyway, heres the meme:

Love this idea. It should allow Nostr comments on any web page. I own the domain name WebNotes.com, which I would gladly donate to this effort.

8 of the 9 #BitcoinETF's have now filed their ammended applications; only waiting on WisdomTree. SEC said? "Update by end of October, and we will approve in November." Anticipating initial pop, then drop as GBTC and others unwind and then slow steady gain.

People keep telling me to call my Nostr posts "notes".

Yes, it is "notes and other stuff transmitted by relay". But my note is a post. I posted it. I have used the term "post" for two decades. I posted it.

This is Nostr. We don't have rules. I'll call them what I want. I called it a post. Fight me.

I continue to call posts on "X" tweets as well. I tweet them. My father called tissues "Kleenex" down to his end days and I plan to do the same for this unless or until it just naturally feels right to do otherwise. Every time someone tells me to change my terminology, I just channel my late father and say, "no". I called it what I called it.

I tweet on X and I post on Nostr.

I compormise using post as the verb and note as the noun. As in I justed posted this note". And thus the universe remains in balance.

When someone wears a bowtie in 2023 outside of a wedding I am not sure what to make of it.

They are most certainly hiding an old garotting scar. More common than you might think.

Author proofs so that I can check the details.

## Welcome to Nostr.

Nostr is half a million people, and now you, trying to build a better social media space. The protocol is new and still developing rapidly, with many smart developers building all sorts of things. It can be a little overwhelming and confusing for new arrivals. This page is a modest attempt to get you grounded before the noise overwhelms.

## Wallet and Keys

You should have a public key (npub1A2b...) and a secret key (nsec1z1x3...). Share the npub, never share the nsec. Together they serve as your username/password, so don't lose them. You should also have a Bitcoin/Lightning wallet. With those three things secured, everything else is easily changed. We currently recommend [Alby](https://getalby.com/) as the best way to manage both wallet and keys.

## Clients

There are numerous clients with different goals and features. [Here's a list](https://devstr.org/clients/). Use one or as many as you'd like - your wallet, keys, and profile can come right along. So try a client and post your own note - maybe sharing how you heard about Nostr. Congratulations, you are now a Nostrich. Now you can buy an Ostrich at the exotic pet store to serve as a mascot.

## Setup Your Profile

Nostr includes a personal profile with; name, about, avatar, name@domain (NIP05), a name@lightning address (LUD16), and a few other things. Name is usually a handle or nickname. About is a short bio of up to 150 characters. Avatar is any small picture. NIP05 is an optional shorthand address for your npub key; [numerous providers exist](https://nostr.how/en/guides/get-verified). LUD16 is a shorthand address for your lightning wallet (name@getalby.com). Don't sweat it. You can change these elements later. Your profile is linked to your npub, not your client.

## Build Your Tribe

Like most social media platforms, you will want to build your tribe or who you want to follow. Read some notes, tap on interesting people, and then press follow. Now you will see all the notes they share. Each client is set up differently but all have a 'follow' function. You can search for specific people and follow them, or even follow who they follow. If you use Twitter, here's an easy way to [move your follower list to Nostr](https://nostr.directory/). Again, low stress, you can unfollow someone easily too.

## Zaps

Now for the fun stuff. Most nostriches use zaps instead of likes. Zaps are tiny amounts of bitcoin that you 'tip' people for notes you appreciate (and they 'tip' you). And I mean really tiny, like 20 sats (satoshis - the smallest unit of Bitcoin) which is about half a US penny (ha'penny?) You can easily load your Alby wallet with something like CashApp). Most people find it way more fun and meaningful than likes. It's part of what makes Nostr Nostr. Now go out and Zap something.

## Relays

Relays allow you to tune your Nostr experience. For now, we recommend you leave them be. You will know when you are ready. [Here's more information](devstr.org/relays/) for when you are ready.

## Have Fun and Express Yourself

Some applicable cliches: Attack ideas, not people. We are all on the same planet. Learn daily. Create something. Fix, don't complain. Now go Zap us to a better world.

hot take: too many people riding the fence, myself included.

We need to commit to this thing if we’re going to get out of navel-gazing phase. Communal singleness of purpose.

I’m staying #Nostr only for the rest of the year.

Who needs help building & onboarding? What can I help you with?

I am officially joining the #NostrOnly movement. My business npub devstr@nostrplebs.com too.

I am switching to @Strike as my $USD/#Bitcoin ramp from @coinbase, @binance, and @kraken due to recent SEC activity and new @Strike features. Join me, and we each get $5.00. https://invite.strike.me/MDXOPC

As someone that will be moderating the Nostr session you mention - I understand organization... there is huge demand for time on the stage.

And #nostrica changed the game... created more demand for Nostr content!

For what is worth, I am also helping organize few Nostr events; will see with organizers if they can be highlighted more. In the meantime I'm inviting you - and any other plebs - to join us.

Here is the one nostr:npub1z4m7gkva6yxgvdyclc7zp0vz4ta0s2d9jh8g83w03tp5vdf3kzdsxana6p & nostr:npub1csamkk8zu67zl9z4wkp90a462v53q775aqn5q6xzjdkxnkvcpd7srtz4x9 are helping me put on:
