If you correctly recognize Lightning and Ecash as fake and gay, the only positive thing you can really do is advocate for drivechains / spacechains.
I understand drivechainers now.
P2P is inevitable in the network designed on the principle that P2P doesn’t work.

All roads lead to p2p.
Indeed. Relays are businesses. You can ask a business to put your poster up in their shop window.
What if banks were *worse*?

Isn’t Lightning required to have pegs into and out of Bitcoin? I think they’re saying that ecash has no such guarantees. And, arguably, there is incentive to become a fractional ecash mint.

You can if the relay’s delete it. It’s up to them to decide if they want to do that. It’s theirs to decide
Maybe the best practice for Nostr is everyone running their own relay. But it defeats @fiattjaf ‘s original thesis of Nostr that “p2p sucks”. Because that’s just p2p.

Not every protocol is like that. Nostr just has the perfect storm of no deniability and no delete
I actually respect the Source Available as opposed to open source. But the product itself is still weird. It’s a blend of a lot of different existing ideas. Not sure what to make of it
There’s a quote from Dune:
> The Power to Destroy a Thing is the Absolute Control Over It
You can’t say that you own the content if you can’t delete it. When you hand it over the relays, it’s theirs more than it’s yours.
If relays were smart, they would want to collect as much data as possible
What is the solution to merchants not wanting high risk coins for liability reasons?
You still have to pander to your audience with V4V. It’s just way less conducive to enabling reach and exposure
V4V is a coping mechanism for a lack of an algorithm.
The algorithm created the Attention Economy. In the AE, “likes” actually help artists a lot. Attention begets more attention which translates to 🤑 on the back end.
With V4V, marketing and revenue are separate. With the AE, they’re combined in a flywheel. It’s simplified in a way that the average person finds convenient.
V4V does not have the same compounding / exponential power and thus sucks in comparison.

Will source code be available? I wouldn’t recommend anyone paste their private key into an app but especially don’t paste it into a closed source one…
nostr:npub1q3sle0kvfsehgsuexttt3ugjd8xdklxfwwkh559wxckmzddywnws6cd26p did you see nostr:npub1plstrz6dhu8q4fq0e4rjpxe2fxe5x87y2w6xpm70gh9qh5tt66kqkgkx8j ? Isn’t that similar to the thing you’re making? I’m trying to figure out the difference
