BOUNTY: Can someone make me a cool animated banner and profile pic for Nostr?

( it’s ok if you use AI )

Looking for something related to my current Robinhood pfp.

I identify with Robin Hood because he was not an anti-capitalist who stole from the rich, he actually stole from the scammers and used the proceeds to buy nice uniforms for his merry men.

Like Robin Hood, I extract from crypto scammers and use the proceeds to support developers, entrepreneurs, artists & educators building ethically on Bitcoin layers (and bitcoin adjacent like Nostr)

The current pic is of Cary Elwes from Robin Hood Men in Tights.

I’ve been told I look like him a lot, and I don’t take myself too seriously.

(A good way to stay humble while stacking sats is to choose a pfp of a silly character.)

I also chose it because Cary Elwes also played Dread Pirate Roberts in Princess Bride, so it’s a nod to Ross Ulbricht.

(If it’s possible to mix Robin Hood with my own image that might also look cool, I’ll reply with a couple pics for AI)

I will pay 0.001337 BTC for each & I’ll zap any good submissions I don’t use!

Green wallet is pretty good, they have a neat hidden feature which is all wallets are 2 of 2 multisig wallets.

If you can’t enter your pin, the blockstream signing server doesn’t sign.

Useful for if you get your seed phrase owned.

After x time, it will allow you to spend without the PIN, gives you time to thwart the thief.

Who is building the MailChimp / Aweber / Constant Contact of the p2p distributed web?

I want to invest in those middleware tech companies that help businesses connect to their customers using pubkey and DID instead of email & SMS.

Probably! I got a bunch of zaps!

I don’t think so yet.

I still think we’re a year or 2 away from that.

Seems like Nostr has gained so much momentum in the Bitcoin community that it’ll be tough for TBDEX’s DID standards to get enough Lindy to get bitcoiners on board.

Might have to revisit the concept of ION based identities, and try to integrate the rest of the TBDEX stack with Nostr.

DWN seems like it could be very useful for decentralized web apps integrating with Nostr.

Same with Synonym.

The web of trust model is smart but the fact that synonym uses a different elliptic curve to generate the keys seems problematic for adoption.

Competition is good for this I suppose…

It’s not really gaslighting, they aren’t doing it for nefarious reasons, they are high on their own supply.
