Bitcoin Dev mailing list is back up
kanzure goes in-depth here: https://gnusha.org/pi/bitcoindev/CABaSBaz9OTSVa1KNk0GOrH3T-kRF_7OPVu0AtpuaFGVB=zhdwQ@mail.gmail.com/
Explicit requirements for a mailing list alternative from Kanzure
Yes IMO the hardest thing is presenting it well
We need to write a kickass presentation and deliver a demo. Someone to run the team is even better since payjoin implementations are being done at the hackathon at the same time
MIT Bitcoin Expo THIS FRIDAY is offering a $2,500 decentralized application prize.
Remote OK. Nostr Bitcoin Dev Mailing List could definitely win. I’m recruiting help.
I wish I had a better alternative to suggest
nostr:nevent
but nostr:nprofile1qqsraldwhvwcjgltmxwfu7kw8dqef2692yhzheuurd7k3kfy8cxjdqgpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzrthwden5te0dehhxtnvdakq3dsq8x nostr:nprofile1qqs9xtvrphl7p8qnua0gk9zusft33lqjkqqr7cwkr6g8wusu0lle8jcpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgqgawaehxw309ahx7um5wghxy6t5vdhkjmn9wgh8xmmrd9skctcevjw9g neither of your apps made this readily apparent w/ copy paste or share
how the heck do I embed a note
& what’s off-the-shelf way to submit a note for moderated approval?
2 requirements for bitcoindev imo
1. email interface (nostr bridge could work)
2. moderation (at least a moderated view)
This is what “I will make you obsolete” moments are made of
Google’s official stance:
Bitcoin Dev is “unwanted”
Chat I think I need to eat a frisbee on stream
May you share the apps that use Nostr for this? How are these made better by ID + signatures?
No doubt making clients potential coordinators is a step toward better decentralization. But that’s not my question, which is: is lack of coordinator decentralization preventing people from using wasabi who otherwise would?
The email interface is a requirement. Did somebody say bridge?
The Payjoin project just posted their vision and roadmap including multiparty batch transactions in v3, an ambitious project Spiral's Yuval Kogman has been working on.
Spiral grantee nostr:nprofile1qyt8wumn8ghj7ct5d3shxtnwdaehgu3wd3skueqpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqqgpxtqmzcvfha25qr7hyqjlrdl7gpct2v8zr4zg68gzxhmztwtjf3gh76kkx has been super focused and making tremendous progress on Payjoin for several years now. He's been able to attract many other developers to the project, including merging Yuval's project into Payjoin, which is a fantastic outcome.
I find Payjoin to be one of the most pragmatic and promising privacy improvements for bitcoin. We're going to see strong adoption of it in the coming years.
