It's not the tech, security, employee training or taxes. It's that prices aren't stable because no cryptocurrency has a mechanism to adjust the supply of money in accordance with goods and services offered in the economy.
hey nostr:npub1g7lqk25fl24xd0zh7hr8jgp5smdy2eszjh9nmv7z7w85h6xcs9hq4u8yd9 it was a group Q&A in our simpleX chat. I think me and you spoke in there earlier about IPFS not scaling. And you were correct it does not. I do still think there are some limited use cases and benefits to it, but IPFS will not be the mass adoption future at least in it's current form, I agree
Thanks. I tried connecting to the group via the link provided but it's stuck "connecting ...".
We're better off discussing here anyways.

I use the implicit library to generate OpenSCAD source but this seems like a level up.
That's not why you're doing it.
Zaps are kiddie stuff. I still can't buy a coffee around the corner and you know that so let's not go there.
Btw also money is an accounting method, nothing else.
With "zero knowledge proofs" do you have something like e-cash type blind signatures in mind? Because the Wikipedia page that you link to doesn't list that.
"cryptographic primitive is close to gift cards, that have zero monetary value"
Gift cards are used as currency in all sorts of "unofficial" contexts.
The software vendors root key is a single point of failure. Expect your detractors to feast on it in no time.
This won't work unless there's multitude of certificate issues and infrastructure providers accept a number of them. Not a problem unless you were counting on some sort of certificate monopoly to fund development.
From the doc "When the client wants to provision infrastructure resource [...]".
Clients don't provision infrastructure.
Why not say "we" instead of "I" and pretend there is a whole team behind nostr:nprofile1qqsvnx99ww0sfall7gpv2jtz4ftc9v6wevgdd7g4hh7awkpfvwlezugpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhs38wxc9 instead of just one person just a little longer.
I know on nostr you can't ban people but can we make an exception please and ban this horrible "BitTorrent mainline" nostr:nprofile1qqsfxrxw7y3h9hf0zczhelz57rdajse4mz63kn38xu3kkqx2kuv0ekgpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3vamnwvaz7tmzd96xxmmfdejhytnnda3kjctvqyvhwumn8ghj7erpwd5zumt0vd4kjmn809hh2tnrdaksrej4w0 person from liking my notes please. 😮
Means I have some idea as to what works and what doesn't.
What you propose there is called epidemic forwarding and the usual first attempt by all those that can't be bothered to make even the slightest attempt at learning from past failures.
30 years of observing attempts at distributed systems fail over and over again.
Huge thanks to SimpleX's developer for coming through for the event!
Here's what he shared with us about the future of nostr:npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828:
-Moving off Github this year
-Flatpak support is coming very soon, like 1 week
-iPad Support this year
-Group chat on-board with 2-3 other users will eliminate the need for the admin to be online
-Will be getting rid of the "connecting" on initial sync and increase speed of on-boarding
With the new feature to hide IPs, the user is first sending it to a server they trust, which passes it to the other server. How do users know who to trust?
The app will soon be able to differentiate infrastructure operators in these ways:
-several preset providers in the app next year
-operators can self-identify with certs, it's optional - this year
-using servers of people you are friends with or know - very soon
-A user asked about a directory - but it is not coming due to privacy and trust concerns it would create
To make the network financially sustainable and provide the commercial incentive to the operators they are designing the concept of "infrastructure vouchers" that are planned for 2026.
These vouchers will:
-Will be on a private blockchain maintained by the approved operators together with the app developer(s)
-Work like gift cards, except:
-Vouchers won't be transferable from 1 user to another
-No refunds
-No wallet
-Stays in-app
-Can't be used as external money to avoid compliance requirements
-One can buy vouchers with Monero (or other cryptocurrencies), as long as XMR remains legal
-Government fiat can be used
-Voucher sellers may be different than server operators (collectors)
-It won't be just the SimpleX team selling vouchers, some decentralization
Here's more details on his commercial model:
