If we can’t grow nostr at least we can attempt to grow other things!

Unfurled the lot…….good story if there’s a fifth as a result 😜

Never underestimate the comfort of a grassy flowerbed on a naked ass.

It’s all about not eating after dinner too. That’s the period between dinner and sleep when most people binge on shitty food.

Not sure if it’s the best but it’s the one I’ve watched the most number of times:

The Big Lebowski

Congratulations! I’ve always thought that it was the easiest “1st step” to freedom.

I’ve never made a lot of money, but I’ve always kept my “wants” to a minimum. Time, family, and health.

Thanks, it was. How are things?

My time is my own.

I’m as dumb as they come. According to some on here I lack basic reading comprehension skills.

Just another person proclaiming to know the meaning of life. There are many.

You’d be top five of godmothers of nostr for my family 💜🫂.

I’ve alway known it, but after selling everything we had over the last year, I have become acutely aware of the fact that people will always seek to get something for nothing, or pay a pittance for something of value. V4V, imo, does not jive with human nature.

Butchered that:

“For sale: baby shoes, never worn”

Now it follows me……just had to put a spotlight on us, eh Bohemian?

I’ve been making a lot of large deals lately, wherein I was at the mercy of the other party due to circumstances. It’s been really nice to trust people and have them follow through on their word. It’s been reassuring, to say the least.

I don’t want to live in a trustless world. It would be a dark and lonely place.

So I guess I’m in the trust, until you give a me reason not to trust you, with certain safeguards in place so that I don’t get burned too bad….

Nothing more useless 😂

Yep. In the new budget, if you earn over 250k the inclusion rate has been bumped to 2/3.

Thank you for taking the time top respond.

In an attempt to clarify what you have said, and to further my understanding, I am going to summarize your answers. If I have misintrepreted anything you have said, I apologize, and welcome any clarification.

In response to my first question, it seems that you believe that it is opensats' role to help further the development of the entire nostr ecosystem. That it should seek out the best projects that are aligned with this goal.

You also believe that your VC firm's investment in Primal, can't be successful without a diverse and expansive ecosystem to support it.

You didn't really answer my second question, and once again please clarify if I missed it , but I am assuming, based on what I have read from you before, that Primal presents tradeoffs that are acceptable to you as an investor, because nostr needs an access point for the masses, with the least amount of friction in terms of onboarding people to bitcoin and nostr.

And in response to last question, I am assuming that you don't believe that this presents poor optics, or any reason for people to think there is a conflict of interest? That your invesment in Primal should not be of any concern to anyone who has received a grant?

Based on your answers, and the assumptions I have made, is this the way you see your role, and the roles of opensats and ten31:

1. Opensats (non profit) should be used to build out the ecosystem

2. Ecosystem flourishes

3. Thereby making Primal and my investments more likely to succeed

4. Primal is great for onboarding people to bitcoin and nostr and this is needed and it's filling a hole in the market. Thereby making nostr more likely to succeed.

5. Return on my investment is good, investors are happy.

6. My personal return is good

7. Nostr is successful

8. Everyone is happy

You’re giving yourself way too much credit, but I suppose that’s to be expected.

I don’t see any answers to my questions?

I see answers to other questions, that he may have thought I was asking.

Of course it isn’t, and you’re wrong for even asking.

I’m liking the reminder to renew my purple account in my notifications, but when I sign in through the client I can’t seem to locate where to renew?

Does it need to end and then I renew?

I can’t figure it out for the life of me. Why would people give their precious sats to a middle man.

Laziness? Lack of trust in themselves and their ability to decipher value?

Like you said, we have a direct line to the people building the future we want to see and be a part of.

It’s all I’ve thought about today….Lt. D..!
