Which means if I stopped judging - the reciprocation would stop !

The race is never between two people - it is between me and the skill I am learning :-) #Karma

The competitive spirits ( not always bad) arise only when we put our skills on display - #Vikarama

#Karma creates (internal) knowledge - #Vikarama creates (external) information aka competition

Obama spoke very well in Arizona .. a well crafted speech .. and unparalleled delivery ..

But the problem is Americans don't want lectures anymore ..

They want a president who could dance - despite being shot at - at 78 !

It is the sheer energy .. not policy or rhetoric..

#politics

#nostr 's target network is not X ..it is Linked In ..

because most employees find it hard to speak their minds ... #anonymity is a god send for them ..

everyone wants to spaek their hearts out somewhere :-) someone who won't judge !

It doesn't matter because their promise is "btc per share" ... as long as they don't sell Bitcoin they are good on their value proposition..

Microstrategy buys #bitcoin for those who can't ..

Every time it issues new debt or equity , its #bitcoin per share goes up .. that is the 🗝️..

Points in case

- Unix has the maxis because it is ported to every architecture and device - endless forks at conceptual level - Solaris , BSDs HP Ux , AiX , Linux , Android and ech

- iPhone as a concept of a touch enabled sheet of glass has been copied over and over again .. everytime someone creates a new touch smart device - iPhone improves it's status ..

- Every new streaming service adds value to Netflix .. the eco system got so strong that people literally cut the chord .. and we are paying twenty bucks a month for Netflix with ads :-)

Why do you think that besides #Bitcoin, some cryptocurrencies have been there for over 10 years and despite their poor performce against #BTC they continue to exist and thrive?

My take:

Initially I thought, all of them but a handful will fade away and never be heard of again, but for my surprise, many are still trading after many years, Why?

The more I analyze the available data the more I conclude it is not about performance or profit, and I got to the Apple iPhone phenomenon...

When the iPhone was launched I was shocked on how many technically savvy friends, colleagues and acquaintances were buying it. I study the mobile and concluded it was an overpriced device with many deficiencies for me to even consider it an option, in short SUCKS, the worst one at that time, it had one radio instead of two, you could not do data and talk at the same time and almost no customization. It simply sucks. Yet an incredible success, Why? The Apple fan base, or should I say, the cult? Tesla now?

Extrapolating to Crypto currencies I believe is the same principle, some of them keep being strong over time because of the fan base, toxic maxis that become youtubers, tiktokers, influencers, developers, periodic conferences, PR campaigns, etc, same as with Bitcoin

Bitcoin is not much different on that arena, but it has the huge advantage of being the first to market and the fact that walked the path of the HERO (fought three big battles; 1. blocks, 2. miners bans, 3. ETFs approval; and won raising victorious)

Lot's of people hate Bitcoin maxis, believe they are part of the problem as of why there is not more adoption, maybe that is true, but I believe they are the cult base, without them, their strong believe in the ecosystem and its ethos, Bitcoin would not be the undisputed alpha dog

What are your thoughts?

Success of software - particularly open source - is in how many times your are forked .. or conceptually copied ..

Because each fork lifts you to a higher padestal .. so much so that at a point you catch on the Godly status .. it becomes a faith .. that is when Maxis are born ..

Alt coins have fake maxis .. most of their base has seventy percent in #Bitcoin and may be 30 percent spread over many other quick buck schemes - even though they talk about one .. to fake their devotion ..

"Text’ was the new medium.

To the speech-only world, it was a new way to store and send information - somewhat similar to addition of digital to our analog communication. Not only did it demand new scribing skills, it also meant the populations must learn to read - beyond a select class of intellectuals. New tools such as reed pens, ink and palm leaves became common place - just as we mass adopted general purpose computers. Intelligence from higher dimensions (Ganesa) was invoked to usher humanity into this new era, just the way we are setting almost mystical 3 AI models in motion. It isn't hard to imagine "AI enabled humans" would scale new highs of conscious experience in the same manner as "text" enabled we did - versus our speech-only ancestors - a quantum jump 4 !"

I do want a future where Bitcoin payments are like real cash .. no KYC , no tracking ..

But in reality , the society is getting cashless at a much faster clip than acceptance of Bitcoin as a medium of exchange .. that is a simple truth ..

Such being the case , fussing over custodial lightning wallets - which are like 1000 x better than a predatory credit card .. seems like 😕

#bitcoin Lightning wallets - what is the fuss about ?

As a user I love custodial lightning wallet(s) .. I have no intent to set up my own permanent lightning node .. I did one just to experiment and lost 100 k #sats ( around 60 dollars ), but I take it as cost of learning .. and it didn't make me feel any less about #lightning

Agree "wallet of Satoshi" was banned in US but there are many other choices ..

And what if US banks provide custodial lightning wallets .. on behest of government with proper KYC ! .. will it be wrong ? #askNostr

Algos are here ..

.. and they are open sourced .. which means genie is out of the bottle ..

Would you rather #askNostr who to follow ? Or let a #nostr algorithm do it for you ?

If first , tell me who to follow except of course your self :-) ... just one recommendation ! And I will ..

#nostr name ..

Why does #nostrudel ignores my profile name and always addresses me with my nip-05 name ?

What is the difference ?
