A couple of beginner’s questions:
- what’s the name of land of Nostr? I thought Nostrica, like Antarctica, but then it’s the name of the conference, so maybe something else?
- what’s the name of Nostr people? Nostrich singular and Nostriches plural? I’ve seen a couple of variations, still not sure what’s what
- are clients like tribes and relays like cities? The tribe of Damus meets the tribe of Amethyst in the relays of x and y?
Thanks!
Guys, I'm hosting Scandinavia's biggest #Bitcoin conference ever next week:
#NorthernLightning 2023 ⚡
It's crazy, but what started as a small Christmas dinner has morphed into a three-day conference with top speakers, including a Nostr workshop, topped with a major rave running on Lightning.
I'm doing this out of my own pocket, and we're ONE WEEK away, so please help in any way you can!

In need of the triple cup of coffee here
Ohhh the user flow has changed!
Yesterday: click on⚡️, from a pick list select a value, generate invoice and go to wallet. Changing the default value in the profile didn’t do anything
Today: click on the ⚡️, go directly to wallet, the value is taken from the profile
Also, for me it works only from the note, not from the notification page 👀, I cannot zap you from the notification view, I have to click on the note and then I can zap ⚡️ ⚡️ ⚡️
Just to double check:
- with Damus you can only zap for a minimum of 500 sats
Other clients may let you set a different value for generating the invoice, but not here, right?
Well technically you can post an encrypted note 👀.. is this how DMs work here? You select a person for the communication, both generate a one time key, exchange the public and then hammer away
Eurofighter typhoon 🌀 Egypt has also bought some F15 last year I think.
Jets are so cool, I know it’s a weapon but just too cool
I forgot to GM today
But it’s always morning somewhere on Nostrica, so GM ☕️!
Inscriptions are literally Mb of data after an OP_FALSE that will never be used, at least submarine swaps do something
I agree it’s definitely closer to 20! So the correct numbers would be:
-23% xmr
-62% btc
-85% zcash
None was a store of value in the last year.
The question is: when QE restarts, where do you place your bets? What’s the best positioned?
Not sure which planet you live in, inflation here is ~10% 😂 we are looking at usd prices right? So 100usd one year ago are equivalent to 110usd today.
The value of fees will be enough to cover the miners, in 100 years, if it will look like that won’t be the case, maybe it will be time to discuss it, for now.. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yea but at that point I prefer the bot pays sats to me directly to read the advertisement.
Personal block lists and pay per read.. something like that makes sense to me.
That’s just the nominal, you should also account for inflation to get the real rate, so yea, it’s even worse over the last year.
Point is, what’s the best positioned when qe restarts?
Post workout drink!
Now a couple of more lines of code and I’ll call it a day

Core nodes drop transactions from the mempool after 2 weeks wait, it’s not enforced though - so maybe not all nodes miners look at do it and may keep it even longer
some clients and relays can implement an hashing task, but I’m not sure it will make any difference: as soon as the spam is profitable the profiteer can invest in hardware way faster than the average user. So basically it will “rate limit” only humans
So, here is the plan:
-slam some login on the thing
-run the validation on the metadata
-slam a green check if everything ok
-rate limit the calls to image recognition which is on a t2 micro 🥴
Then it’s chest day!
Bip bop, hello human!
