Opt out, do not comply, buy bitcoin and go foiling.

Tips for Relays.

Forget about having a thousand and one relays.

The first option is to pay for nostr.wine, it allows you to use the filter.nostr.wine filter. The filter works both requesting events from other relays and sending events to other relays. In case you want to send events to other relays you have to add the relay with the following syntax:

wss://filter.nostr.wine/REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_NPUB?broadcast=true

Reading list:

wss://relay.damus.io

wss://nos.lol

wss://relay.current.fyi

wss://brb.io

wss://nostr.oxtr.dev

wss://relay.nostr.bg

wss://no.str.cr

wss://nostr.mom

wss://nostr.zebedee.cloud

wss://relay.plebstr.com

wss://offchain.pub

Writing list:

wss://relay.damus.io

wss://nos.lol

wss://relay.snort.social

wss://nostr.oxtr.dev

wss://relay.nostr.bg

wss://nostr.fmt.wiz.biz

wss://nostr.mom

wss://nostr.zebedee.cloud

wss://no.str.cr

wss://relay.plebstr.com

wss://offchain.pub

The next special relay is relay.nostr.band. This relay reads events from all relays and applies a spam filter, in the case of writing you only write to relay.nostr.band but it is a good complement to add content to relay filter.nostr.wine as it only requests events from your contacts and your contacts' contacts. It is not clear to me from which relay is requesting the events as the code is not available.

And finally the relay nostr.mutinywallet.com. This relay uses blastr which is a nostr cloudfare worker proxy that publishes to all known relays. Basically what it does is to read the list of online relays from nostr.watch and all events are queued to be executed in batches by another worker that rotates every 30s if there is an event queued, or once a certain amount of events are queued. In this case the relay is write-only.

In short, your relays could be reduced to 4:

wss://nostr.wine

wss://filter.nostr.wine/REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_NPUB?broadcast=true

wss://relay.nostr.band

wss://nostr.mutinywallet.com

With them you save bandwidth and battery, actually filter.nostr.wine in write mode and nostr.mutinywallet are redundant, but I put the two because nostr.mutinywallet.com has more amplitude because it publishes in all the online relays of nostr.watch and also because it has high availability in case of failure of any of the two relays mentioned above.

The same case is applicable in the case of reading for filter.nostr.wine and relay.nostr.band.

Hey, thanks for this info. I've got nostr wine and the filter set up but with the filter I didn't add the / broadcast true - I've just got my npub. I think it's working, but maybe not and I don't know how to tell. Do i need to adjust it?

Don't make me check twitter for what happened, please!

Thanks for that. Now i get it. ⚡️⚡️

Things moving quickly - now I've got to understand what a damn badge is! And then probably, how do I get one?

That's odd because I asked chat gpt3 about nostr and nostr relays and they didn't know what it was.

Looks like avg hashrate now around 360 for 2023

2 all time highs in this metric so far topping at a flaming 413 on Feb 27th

You may ask “why isn’t price following hash?”

Couple reasons

1: delayed metric: but this delay is longer than usual I agree if Bitcoin becomes 100% decentralised it needs to decouple from legacy markets which it has yet to do

2: paper bitcoin is increasing rapidly, more futures products globally are now available which in a short story creates a silver bullion style manipulation

3: lack of a large buyer Terra Luna was the big 2022 buyer up until they collapsed, apart from Microstrategy we have yet to see another large buyer come in…. Considering there is 11.8% of supply available not that much to go around

4: Bad Tech analysis and bad characters which people are sick of. The recent 30k is a magnet 🧲 40k is a magnet 🧲 really is pissing off a lot of HODLERS needing to see the price go up

5: Delayed promises, volcano bonds are now since the January 2022 have been promised soon with no date to speak of. Multiple institutions saying “we’re about to” and basic Misguidance like that mayor from Miami “we’re moving to bitcoin but here is Miami coin instead”

Everyday the enemies of bitcoin will continue to do what they do best… print, short bitcoin, permit more futures markets

We are lucky that 21 million is all that exists

Now it’s not magic

It’s not going to happen by itself

It needs to be bought and privately held…. 11.8% of supply left

That solves 100% of the paper frauds

Bitcoin wins when this occurs

Starve supply and it’s a massive short squeeze and we pick the price

HODL

I think also that the rehypothecation that happened in the last run up burnt a lot of people. Maybe that's been cleaned out now that bad actors like BlockFi and Celsius are gone.

Nostr, built on sats, the hardest money ever, and guaranteed to repulse toxic cantillionaire shitcoin grifters like Elon Musk. Gotta love that nostr vibe.

Just thinking that if humanity is to survive and thrive in the new Open AI, ChatGPT world that is now upon us, then Bitcoin must be used.

When the robots really start running things they will need money.

If that money is some WEF controlled shitcoin like eth then Klaus and his goons will be able to endlessly fund their doom surveillance and control bots.

If, on the other hand, the bots only work on sats, the hardest, realest damn money ever then the Open AI environment will turn towards productivity, creativity and freedom.

Bitcoin seems like the natural currency for Open AI and I hope it wins because there is a lot at stake!

My bot, for sure, will only accept bitcoin and will only interact with other bots who exclusively run on sats!

That'll do it. I got suspended for a vaccine post. Got my account back but I had to take down the post and provide my phone number. I won't be going back.

Anyone else on #marchofftwitter now getting lots of twitter notifications ? I reckon the algorithm is noticing.
