Wouldn't it be funny if Coinbase left the US and went to HK......

And we repeat the FTX saga all over again 🀣

Just havin' a shitposta day here.

Trading shitcoins all day is woke and un-american.

I don't care what people say! 😝

What I did while waiting for my two "wash machine cycles" to finish today.

I got so bored, I made yet another DCA calculator with dash plotly. And I didn't even have to think with GPT3. Now GPT5 will make the css/styling less painful and dear Karrot will be obsolete, minus loading the "wash machines". πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„

I will made Obsolete by GPT-5.

Somebody tell me that isn't going to be true.

Interesting take on Growing Nostr; to expand more than just what we already see. #GrowNostr

We should face up to the issues of input, output, and profitability of the sustainable development of Nostr ecology. We cannot bury our heads in the sand like an ostrich, but our bodies enjoy the free sea breeze and climate of the beach.

Every time #[0] continues to pour money into developing clients and servers, potentially leading to bankruptcy, everyone who uses Damus, will be mortified and will do their best to zap ⚑️ his great work. However, as the amount of data increases and the cost of running the relay server and client development become more and more complex, purely relying on personal selfless dedication and asymmetric zap⚑️ cannot last for a long time.

The sustainable business model and capital operation method that I can see now, I hope everyone can add and discuss

1. Client developers and relay operators charge users monthly or annual membership fees, and the payment method is paid in the user's national currency instead of sats. Because most ordinary people who use Nostr do not own Bitcoin. And Bitcoiners who own bitcoins cherish their bitcoins as treasures, and will not tip large amounts at will. It is much more convenient to pay in local currency, just like many foreign websites support China's Alipay.

2. We all believe that Nostr has the same philosophy as Bitcoin, which is free from censorship, freedom, and belongs to everyone's own thoughts and wealth. But Nostr lacks a benign mining and reward mechanism, and the pure self-investment of relay and developers is unsustainable. Is it also necessary to introduce a reward mechanism similar to Bitcoin? Issue Nostrcoin?

3. After establishing a company and accepting investment from traditional VCs, the next step is to consider the business model and profitability. In this regard, as long as people like the client on Nostr, as the number of users increases, the profitable business model can be explored.

4. Client developers and relay issue tokens based on Ethereum to raise funds for development and operation, which is equivalent to issuing securities on a cryptocurrency exchange. This mode of operation based on blockchain fundraising allows many developers to continue to develop and improve their financial situation.

Here I would like to kindly remind everyone that the blockchain technology and tokens are more tolerant in the use of Nostr. We need more people to join Nostr. You can disagree with their views, but respect them in using Nostr.

Nyet shitcoins, don't need the SEC down our necks, thank you.

I support thinking through and experimenting with various business models first before taking VC money.

There's a lot of potential for new business models. We don't have to do it the old skool way. And no pump and dump please

It depends on your setup. I am not much of a mobile user and more of a desktop user so I'm not as constrained by data and space.

Ideally i would like to be connected to at least 20+ relays...and spread out across the network.

i want to watch this but it doesn't seem to show up on my client. hm

Good Question! This week I am experimenting with a relay aggregator on LNBits. Lots of hiccups, I sure hope my posts don't all disappear, hehe.

The sats.lnaddy.com relay is supposed to aggregate posting to about 10-12 other relays but I'm not sure its working fully yet. Its still being worked on.....
