I don’t follow crowds or join tribes — except one: I’m a Bitcoiner

It was a pleasure and an honor to speak with Maya Parbhoe at Bitcoin Amsterdam. As the presidential candidate for Suriname, she aims to make Bitcoin legal tender and a unit of account—just one of her many visionary ideas. Stay tuned for my interview with her, coming later this week.

It was an honor to speak with Adam Back about the cypherpunk ethos, Bitcoin, scarcity, and Nostr. Stay tuned—the complete interview will be out later this week!

What’s your take on Bitcoin’s societal impact? Let me know in the comments.

On my way to Bitcoin conference in Amsterdam. Looking forward to the Bitcoin crowd and the many pleb chats ahead.

Dr. Mathias Linkerhand erklärt Abgeordneten die Funktionsweise von Bitcoin Wallets und veranschaulicht eindrucksvoll, wie extrem unwahrscheinlich die Berechnung oder das Finden eines privaten Schlüssels ist. "Die Anzahl möglicher privater Schlüssel beträgt etwa 10 hoch 77. Um die Unvorstellbarkeit dieser Zahl zu verdeutlichen: Die Erde besteht aus etwa 10 hoch 50 Atomen. Selbst wenn man jedes einzelne Atom der Erde nehmen würde, wäre die Anzahl der Atome immer noch winzig im Vergleich zur Anzahl möglicher privater Schlüssel." 👀

Uncomfortable Nostr Reality check:

I've tried to Nostr-pill all my YouTube friends (some of them have incredible amounts of subs), but none of them care about the censorship resistance or decentralization. Even though they know Nostr exists, they have no incentive yet to come here. Their audience would follow them anywhere, but they need the tools to create community communications.

It's a sad reality, but it all comes down to usability, UX, and ultimately the easiness of paying and signing up for the community. None of these can afford to have a sign-up problem or issues with someone being interested in joining the community/their platform. It needs to work flawlessly and feel and look professional. Some of them charge $3-5k a year just to get access to this closed space, and people are willing to pay for this.

Another big pain point is community management. All of these YouTubers create these platforms to help their audience have a safe place to communicate with each other and build their own tribe.

Nostr is capable of facilitating all of this - we're just not there yet. We need to somehow invest so much more into UX and design.

All of this will come when the time is due. So, knowing that all of this is possible and that ultimately, Nostr will be powering most of these via the social graph, is what makes me extremely bullish. But also, let's not get ahead of ourselves and expect them to come already.

The UX and features are not there yet for these people. I am more than happy to help anybody trying to make this a reality. I want nothing more than having these people join Nostr. But I also totally understand their pain points. So, if you're a dev or a company working on this, please feel free to reach out - I can tell you all the issues they told me. Or just tell me how to best do this; maybe I can jump on a podcast so the issues are open-sourced for the whole community to hear.

great points! If I want to post a long form video I'm stuck with a limitation of 100 MB. How can I upload a Video with a few GIGs?

Big name YouTubers making their own video platforms 🤦‍♂️

Do they genuinely not know nostr exists or what …

how do you post long form content on Nostr?

The Bitcoin Bundesverband (Bitcoin Federal Association) was founded in the German Parliament and is taking its first big step! 🇩🇪 They’re here to drive Bitcoin-friendly policies and shape the Bitcoin landscape in Germany. I had the chance to talk to several board members after the founding. Check out the link to the YouTube video below to discover their mission, goals, and vision for the future. Be part of the Bitcoin movement!

Zaps represent the only fundamentally new innovation in social media.

Everything else is a distraction.

I believe the true innovation of Nostr lies in its decentralized nature, with no central point of failure. Zaps are just the icing on the cake.

Why are you on nostr?

Current developments show that the solutions empowering freedom are not companies bound to government tyranny, but decentralized alternatives with no central point of failure.

The very definition of 'scarce' implies that demand exceeds supply. Therefore, the meaning of your statement essentially dissolves into nothingness.

Saying 'scarcity creates value' is a circular argument. Since scarcity means that demand exceeds supply, and demand implies value, stating that scarcity creates value is essentially the same as saying 'value creates value.' It’s redundant because the concept of scarcity already presupposes that the item has value due to existing demand.

There's only one picture of my husband and I online in any English-language context, and it's not labeled as such but rather is buried in a Twitter thread and just kind of put in there as one of many photos, on purpose as an easter egg.

We like privacy, so we don't post many pictures.

But since I already showed my left ear on Nostr (likely for the first time ever in a public picture, funnily enough), I might as well give Nostr the exclusive to my husband as well. It's technically not new, which is why I can show it, but rather I can just be more specific about it. It's a picture of us from back in 2021 at Sahl Hasheesh in Egypt that we've had quietly online for three years. As readers of Broken Money know, his name is Mohamed Badran.

Mohamed is the editor of all of my long-form content, deals with the technical backend of the website, and inspires me to be better as a person every day.

looking good

What led you to nostr?

Samourai Wallet has been forked. Some brave souls have picked up where Samourai Wallet left off and the fight for privacy lives on.

Excellent work in reigniting this flame in the darkest hour. Running your own Dojo now required.
