Dearest Chinese Spammer,

50+ Nostr Purple accounts equates to a lot of sats. Bitcoin is a scarce asset. You should probably stop. We thank you for your sats, but please stop registering IDs! I am starting to feel bad taking them from you. 🤙

As I was typing this you bought 2 more. Sigh.

PV to everyone, especially to the spammer that's bought dozens of brand names on nostrplebs.com and not reading our Terms of Service about name squatting and impersonation. Thank you for your sats.

After I went to bed, Semi tried to IP block them and public key block them, but they keep changing. We wanted to save this spammer their bitcoin, but they're trying too hard to give it to us.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I unfortunately don’t have any fancy dashboards with statistics for my relay but it has seen 100 000 new events over the last 24 hours🤯

gm nostr 🤙 Are we still doing the Jack hugging chain or no?🫂

Now that Snort has muting and blocking, I'm going to mute that damn members.cash bot. I don't need it's validation that my posts are hot. I know they are. Fuck off, bot!

Nostr is winning, because open protocols, open source software, and free speech must prevail.

The energy and the excitement is BACK! You just love to see it. We are winning.

All we needed was a *big* name to tip the scale. We are experiencing that event right now. Get ready. The next wave is upon us. This is why you all have been building. This is what you've been waiting on.

**Why Nostr? Why decentralize?**

🔌 Decentralized communication is a **powerful** concept that allows for more freedom and autonomy in the way we communicate.

* Decentralization ensures that no single entity controls the flow of information. This eliminates the possibility of censorship and ensures that everyone has access to the same information.

* Decentralized systems are more resilient to failures and attacks. If one relay, client, or server goes down, the protocol can still function because the information is spread across multiple relays.

* Decentralized systems are more transparent and accountable. In a centralized system, it is difficult to know who is making decisions and how they are being made. In a decentralized system, everyone has a say and the decision-making process is more open.

* Decentralized systems are more efficient. They eliminate the need for intermediaries and allow for direct communication between users.

🎒 In short, decentralized communication **ensures freedom**, it's **resilient**, **transparent**, and **efficient**. All of these factors will make Nostr a superior communication system for the masses.

Tell your friends.

may start bear posting on twitter with the hope that bitcoin does the opposite of what I tweet
