This is awesome

Derek!! May I suggest meetup.com, I think many use that.. although I imagine if you are trying to reach local friends and fam then fb works better.. Do notice boards at health food stores still exist there?

Do you see zaps in Damus? I see them in Snort but not in Damus …

I've literally converted my zaps to beer. I felt the ice cold beverage pour down my throat.

Zaps are real! What other proof do they need? Wake up tweeple!

Doesn't look verified on snort.social

No twitter for March. We doing this or what?

I was gone for lunch, what is happening? is elon shitcoining again?

What are the best relays?

Are you also waiting for the 777777 ?😁

It’s part of the lnurl-pay protocol . The receiver’s client has to store and handle the message on the lnurl server

If everything goes well, I might record the entire season 20 of the Bitcoin Takeover podcast while driving around in a yellow Toyota GR Supra.

Basically Bitcoin Car Talk, but for a guy who can’t afford a Lambo but doesn’t want a family car either 😂

Nostr is proving what I have been saying about Twitter for years; if they integrate Bitcoin they will be the worlds biggest “Financial Institution” ever; the biggest bank with no money, with the greatest number of clients with no accounts, the biggest bank with no branches, money or staff. It could still change everything. Sadly, Elon thinks money is some sort of weird joke. I’m not sure why, and I don’t care much; bigger things are coming.

Nostr is very very cool…but…we’re a long way from normies wanting an unfiltered, decentralised social network which doesn’t have all their favourite famous peeps.

Bitcoiners will naturally have a love for Nostr because it fits with their worldview and understanding.

Like educating the benefits of Bitcoin, Nostr will have the same challenges. Zaps, nPubs etc… won’t mean much to most people.

For now it’s a super cool Bitcoin chat room.

Any recommendations for setting up zaps with a non-custodial wallet? Feel like I'm in over my head atm, but I'm blindly trying to figure it out. 😄

1 bitcoin = 1 million bits = 100 million bitcents

Everyone plugging into Nostr is feeling the pain of having to scale due to the exponential growth of Nostr.

If your business isn’t on Nostr… you are missing out!

That's a safe bet. It'll be also fun times when the hacks begin :)

Prediction - more than 90% of events on free access Nostr relays sooner or later will be spam and scams. Likely will need spam filtering software like we have with e-mail.
