I like that frame. 🤔👍

The cycle completes when nostr:nprofile1qqsfk2er6hu2wyffq0zdccqtp2fvgvterr70e77jha26wk83hxj0ajspzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtc4ekrd6 figures out how to put your private key onto your simcard.

Ah yeah, my brain farted. It is before the election.

We've had many rebrands. The current best is "signing device" since that is really its primary focus.

There was also a push for ABC (airgapped bitcoin computer) but I don't think it caught on.

Heh, November 4th, something tells me that the elections is gonna be part of tbis movie 😄.

Let's brainstorm/workshop how to frame privacy.

On CNBC, the CFO of Florida said "I don't want the federal government knowing when my son went to the grocery store to go buy a bag of doritos at 2:15 in the afternoon".

I think this is weak sauce. It isn't that the government knows about a minor detail of your life that is none of their business, it is the overreaching surveillance, collection of data, and all the false conclusions that can come from it with no oversight and investigation.

"I don't want the government knowing my spending patterns and then using it to make policy decisions about how to run the country"

"I don't want the government to use my purchase history to penalise me in taxes because I refuse to eat junk and choose to eat quality from the farm so they bucket me as rich"

"I don't want the government knocking down my door because they took 3 months to track a dodgy drug dealer and traced some of that money to the change I got at the grocery store"

What else?

A malicious miner can come in a few forms:

1. They are trying to censor the network and have sneakily amassed over 51% of the hash power so it is working.

2. They are attempting to create blocks with invalid transactions or just plainly not following rules yet attempting to pass off their data as a bitcoin block.

Thats probably most of the cases, othet cases kind of fit into one or the other.

In case 1, we "kick them out" by introducing a new rule and roll it out. This isn't a simple task, it will involve convincing people that this is the most conservative way to work around these people while not leading down a slippery slope of just introducing a way to censor people.

The other way we kick them out is by rallying the people to run more nodes and mjners, to outmine the bad actors.

Eventually, the cost to censor will be too much and the enemy will run out of funds.

For case 2, the system already works. Even if the malicious miner had 90% hash rate, our software rejects anything that is considered invalid so these blocks are ignored by users. Some users who rely on custodians or third party nodes may be affected, but majority of economic activity and therefore the most fees to collect will only be collectable by miners who also don't mjne on invalid blocks.

The attacker will quickly realise they are wasting time, energy and money and even if not, we are never affected and more people who use custodial systems start to learn to use Bitcoin natively.

Probably not, but/and all the monies people choose will need to be interoperable (exchanges) but the MOST used money will be hard money.

I can imagine some will choose to stay impoverished in order to not stand out from the crowd but I imagine all rulers will use the hardest money they know. Bitcoin.

What is the part you concerned yourself with then?

No I mean the report says he promoted and pumped the value of his holdings and then sold the high. That's market manipulation.

Hoo hoo, when the robot overlords take over... I'd hate to be you.

I would use outbox/inbox but you've already muddied the word outbox now by using it the opposite way.

You post to your outbox relays and find content from your inbox relays.

Isn't that basically it?

Yes.

Aw, I thought he was one of the good guys, I liked him, yet I also realise that he got rich quick which probably means something shady.

He did the crypto pump and dump stuff though?

Linux is my version of a computer game. No need for Halo or Call of Duty, not even Solitare, just give me the leanest version of everything I need with none of the things I don't need.

It's like a tamagochi.

Start by following #asknostr.

Can you follow hashtags on your client?

Ai

That's odd. 🤔

This looks like something else then. I got 7 sats, no detail about who sent it and no notifications on Amethyst.

Is it possible that you configured your client to send private zaps?

This is what Amethyst offers:
