When do we get to the point that #USDT #Tether FUD is about the risk and volatility of their USD Treasuries and not claims of crypto-shenanigans? š
When do we get to the point when Central Banks get #BitcoinĀ FOMO?
Like, the Bank of England š“ó §ó ¢ó „ó ®ó §ó æ should have around ~1% of the BTC supply held as reserves (maybe up to 3%?), which would currently cost Ā£5.8B
Which is a lot, but not actually for Govt. They can afford to lose Ā£6B but can they afford to have no Bitcoin? Itās an asymmetric bet.
Itād have cost Ā£600M less if theyād pulled the trigger a few weeks ago, and Ā£2.9B less if theyād done it in November last year.
One day it will cost too much to be doable - that day might be coming real soon

Following nostr:npub1s9c53smfq925qx6fgkqgw8as2e99l2hmj32gz0hjjhe8q67fxdvs3ga9je on Nostr is great because it helps me stay on Nostrā¦
Any other #bots people recommend for the same?

Barbie and Oppenheimer are two of the best films Iāve seen in a long time
Think Iāve only just got over post barbenheimer-induced depression
Still spending a lot of time thinking about what both of them meant
Agree. Kinda pushing myself to open Nostr instead of X, but itās not great for engagement or conversations yet - not enough people around
Found following some bots like nostr:npub1s9c53smfq925qx6fgkqgw8as2e99l2hmj32gz0hjjhe8q67fxdvs3ga9je is good just because it gives you something to look at and I can stop going to HN directly most of the time
The Online Safety Bill is terrible but great for Nostr

Reminds me of https://www.catb.org/jargon/html/appendixa.html
Nah, file system doesnāt fit. Nostr is a new protocol sitting alongside email and HTTP, starting with genuinely different principles.
Iād pragmatically define a FS as anything you could write a sane FUSE for
Fair point. I donāt really have a counter other than the lazy āNostr DMs are kinda broken alreadyā and that spam on Nostr is going to be a lot like email
Not sure I agree, would you buy an nsec from me knowing that I could easily keep a copy and continue to use it?
What are you getting by having the nsec that you didnāt have with the npub? (other than being able to read DMs and create new events with it)
B -- Colour and +/- already communicate direction, use the icon to communicate type (zap, lnurlp, invoice, pay request, etc.)
In a sense it subtly, but quite possibly fundamentally changes the economics and incentives around mining, which *could* have bad unintended effects that *could* be irreversible
Any softfork that privileges or distinguishes miners from other nodes.
IMO this is actually the main thing thatās objectionable about BIP300/301, not the concept of Drivechains in themselves
Having a new type of message and payments that go to a miner āI want to start/merge-mine a drivechainā means you need to *know* who the miners are, and they need to handle the BMM in the coinbase tx. This is very different from all nodes equally and blindly passing transactions and blocks around to each other, not caring if the other end is a miner or not.
To me, it is critically important that people can mine without being (easily) detected.
