when you put it like that. shiet👀

No prisons, no limits.

It doesn't make sense to put a jpg or a blog post behind a paywall. If it's good, it will be available for free in no time. Someone will right-click save the thing, or take a screenshot, and send it around or republish it. Trying to fight that is stupid. Putting chunks of data behind prisons is stupid.

All data can be reproduced at zero marginal cost, leading to infinite supply. That's why market prices are ridiculous for blog posts, and why it's equally ridiculous to try to sell a single blog post. What you CAN sell is access to an exclusive club or community, as well as access to the author. That's what all Twitch/YouTube/OnlyFans have figured out. But make no mistake: they're not selling JPGs. They might sell early-access (in the case of OnlyFans) which is fair, but it's not selling a JPG as you would sell an apple. Early access because if the stuff is any good, it will be available for free to anyone everywhere.

Here's the thing: people love to support other people, so let them. No limits. The success of Patreon and Substack does not come from paywalls, but from the inherent willingness of people to support others. Lean into that. Let people give without limits.

Social signaling is important. Community is incredibly important too. Do that right, and we can 100x the whole space just like a switch from $50 per game to free-to-play 100x'd the gaming industry, selling cosmetics and social status only.

Computers are copying machines. Information yearns to be free. People want to support the stuff they love, and they're willing to pay for it. Not all people, but ~4% of them. And that is enough.

ELON TOOK THE AMERICA HANDLE TO PROMOTE TRUMP.

HE CAN TWEET FROM BIDEN'S ACCOUNT OR THE WHITE HOUSE'S. AT WILL.

FUCK IT. HE COULD TWEET FROM MULTIPLE MAJOR HANDLES AT THE SAME TIME.

EVERYONE WOULD BELIEVE THEY ARE REAL. IMPOSSIBLE TO VERIFY THEY ARE NOT.

HE COULD MAKE A MOCKERY OF ANY PERSON. ANY COMPANY. ANY COUNTRY.

HE COULD CRASH GLOBAL MARKETS OR START A WAR IF HE WANTED.

NOSTR IS NEEDED. NOSTR FIXES THIS.

I just learned that 50-70% of the population doesn’t have an internal monologue.

I honestly can’t really comprehend this.

What I think is scarier is all of the people on this thread that lined up behind Odell to say how scary it is. Learn to think for yourselves. There is nothing scary about the man who owns Twitter making an account named America written in gold, quoting himself, citing the Washington Examiner. What if that account named America in gold said something provocative without citation? Would you just automatically believe that’s national policy or position? No. Get out of your ‘all things BTC religion’ and think for yourself.

How do you know your seed is secure? What about inheritance?

I have about 3000 sats that I received from zaps. I want to pass this on ⚡️

Sending 100 sats to first 30 people to reply to this post.

YOU DO NOT WANT TO LEAVE FACEBOOK, TIKTOK, LINKEDIN, OR X BECAUSE IT MAY HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOU GOING FORWARD?

THAT IS THE PROBLEM. NOSTR WILL FIX THAT IF WE MAKE IT THE STANDARD.

THE DOMINANT PLATFORMS ARE EFFECTIVELY SOCIAL CREDIT SYSTEMS. SURVEILLED, MANIPULATED, AND CONTROLLED BY A SMALL FEW. YOUR LIFE IS IN THEIR HANDS. NOT YOURS.

USE NOSTR. TAKE BACK CONTROL. LIVE FREE.

What do u think off setting up a multi sig w a 3rd party like Unchained? They have 1 key I have two.

Anything that would worry u about this scenario?

The problem, in my opinion, is that most people stop at or before ‘So you use a passphrase’ which leaves them vulnerable to the most likely SPOF scenarios.

That’s why we do it the other way around, start with collaborative multisig. If they want to learn more and be fully self sovereign later then go for it! But at least your bitcoin is more likely to be secure in the phase prefacing that then when you start all the way at the top of your list.

Lol. Yeah, my next step would he the "how do I put keys in other countries" stage.

Really related to the Ledger bit.

My first was a Ledger, then Trezor, CCmk3, CCmk4, Seedsigner, Passport...

Multi-vendor distributed multisig is the way.

Now I just need to have 2 kids.

A passphrased coldcard is sufficient for 99% of bitcoiners

You’re not a Bitcoiner until you…

Buy Bitcoin.

But then you’re like wait, I need to get these coins off the exchange.

So you get a hardware wallet.

But then you’re like wait, this is a ledger.

So you get a cold card.

But then you’re like wait, it isn’t using a passphrase.

So you use a passphrase.

But then you’re like wait this isn’t multisig and multisig would be better.

So you buy 4 more coldcards and set up a multisig.

But then you’re like wait I can’t just do coldcards I have to guard against supply chain attacks.

So you buy a ledger again and probably a bitbox too.

But then you’re like wait, I haven’t geographically distributed these.

So you disperse them throughout the country.

But then you’re like wait, what about jurisdictional risk?

So you disperse them to multiple countries.

But then you’re like wait, what if I was tracked as I was placing the hardware wallets?

So you…

There’s actually no end.

It just keeps going like that forever.

Congrats you’re a Bitcoiner now lol 😂

John McAfee didn't know shit.
