I just love #bitcoin's ability to punish greed.

Yes ultimately the market decides but if/when it eventually happens BlackRock Vanguard Statestreet may represent a significant or even majority portion of Bitcoin's market cap. They will have no problem sending the price into 7 figures/coin just to entice current holders to part with their coins (which many will)

"generally accepted" ...by who?

COVID vaccines were "generally accepted" as safe and effective.

Bitcoin was (until very recently) "generally accepted" as being bad for the environment.

High cholesterol is "generally accepted" as unhealthy.

Psilocybin and other psychedelic medicines are "generally accepted" as dangerous drugs that fry your brain like an egg on a hot pan.

A Vegan diet is "generally accepted" as being healthier than a meat dominant diet.

US government bonds are "generally accepted" as a safe-haven asset.

UFO's were "generally accepted" as a conspiracy theory

The point is...the decision of what is the "real" #bitcoin is entirely up to the discretion of BlackRock, a company that has its own self-serving agenda that conflicts in every way with what is good for humanity.

BlackRock can use their discretion based on factors they deem relevant to decide.

Don't forget BlackRock can decide on behalf of all their spot ETF investors which fork of #bitcoin is the "real" bitcoin.

nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft nostr:npub1xdtducdnjerex88gkg2qk2atsdlqsyxqaag4h05jmcpyspqt30wscmntxy I've been working on adding NIP-46 to noStrudel and while I've mostly got it working I've got a few questions about nsecBunker and login.nostrapps.org

nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft

The token that nsecBunker provides has a npub of the account and a hex token after the #

#

How is this token supposed to be used? is it supposed to be the secret key that the app uses to talk to nsecBunker?

There also seems to be bug where the first request made by the app asks the user for permission. but then never responds to the app and the app has to make the same request again

nostr:npub1xdtducdnjerex88gkg2qk2atsdlqsyxqaag4h05jmcpyspqt30wscmntxy why dose the nip04_decrypt method return a JSON stringified array with the plaintext inside (ie. '["testing"]') instead of just the plaintext?

Dose either nsecBunker or login.nostrapps.org implement the "describe" or "get_relays" methods?

Sorry for all the questions, but I'm excited to get this working and I figured it would be better to ask here instead of opening issues on GitHub

Good questions to which id also like to know the answers

Not seeing much staying humble on my feed today re: #bitcoin

Here is a demo of a new onboarding flow for nostr applications. I started working on this after watching nostr:npub1wmr34t36fy03m8hvgl96zl3znndyzyaqhwmwdtshwmtkg03fetaqhjg240's keynote "Nostr for normies" at nostr:npub1nstrcu63lzpjkz94djajuz2evrgu2psd66cwgc0gz0c0qazezx0q9urg5l; which I highly recommend watching.

My goal here was to create a way to onboard new users without requiring them to:

* install a browser extension

* copy/paste a secret

* explain npub/nsec stuff

* without losing interoperability with other nostr applications

This flow resembles a lot an OAuth style (e.g. "Login with twitter") flow:

* You create an account in one site (e.g. Twitter)

* You can "login" to another site with that account

* You can revoke access from using your account

Behind the scenes this is using NIP-89 to find nsecBunkers that allow people to register an account in their domain.

This means that any nostr application can offer a signup/login flow on any nsecBunker domain. The application itself doesn't take custody nor ever see the generated key.

And what's cool is that any nsecBunker provider can create their own flow; they can use passwords, or not, they can require a payment or proof-of-work to create an account. They can brand their "signup/login" popup page in whatever way they want.

Here is a demo video of this new building block that is now available to nostr applications.

Nice! 🔥🔥🔥

An open server network that anyone can read/write to.

What bitcoiners have been saying for years is slowly becoming mainstream knowledge

Do you have something you'd want to build on #nostr but don't have the coding knowledge to do it?
