Actually you can’t tip posts with bitcoin on Twitter. But you can on nostr. 🧡

Find Alby 🐝 on #nostr 💜

Nostr is a protocol that enables global, decentralized, and censorship-resistant social media. Unlike platforms like Twitter and Facebook, Nostr is not controlled by a single company, but rather by a community of users. It is similar to email in that no one controls the protocol, and anyone can create a client built on top of it. Clients like Damus and Amethyst are examples of such clients. If you don't like the functionality of a particular client, you can seamlessly move your Nostr account to another client without losing your followers or content. #Bitcoin is natively integrated into the Nostr protocol, allowing you to easily send Satoshi as a thank-you to someone whose content you enjoy. 🧡

How can I zap posts on Damus using Alby

Hey #nostr Fam!

I’m new here and loving the refreshing vibe of posting again! 🎉

Quick question: I’m struggling to figure out how to zap other people’s posts. At the moment, I can “only” zap them directly. 😕 Is this a Damus issue (since that’s my main app), or am I just missing something?

Usually, I’m decent at tech stuff, but Nostr seems to add a layer of mystery—especially for a typical Apple victim like me. 🍏😂

Any help from the experts would be awesome!

Thats so far out I don’t get it …

Insane

Just came across this post about Pythagoras and it hit me again—what a legend. I first read about him over 10 years ago, and his influence on philosophy, science, and even our modern world is still mind-blowing. It’s crazy how so much of this wasn’t part of the school curriculum—had to dig it all up on my own.

I don’t recall every single detail, but what’s always stuck with me is how Pythagoras managed to be this perfect fusion of spiritual guide, scientist, and artist.

GM everyone,

Soaking up the vacation vibes here in sunny southern Portugal and finally finding some time to dive deeper into #nostr.

Something interesting I’ve noticed in the past weeks: It’s way easier to purple-pill people than to orange-pill them.

Strange how folks seem to grasp the issue of centralized information control much faster than the disaster of fiat currency and the importance of being financially sovereign.

Maybe it’s because the effects of info centralization, Metaverse, etc. are immediately felt, whereas the significance of holding your own money (not in a bank but in your self-custodian wallet) feels a bit more abstract, even though it’s arguably way more impactful.

Still, Nostr’s zaps have been a great way to bridge that gap and show people the power of a truly free monetary system.

Stay sovereign.

GM ( Guten Mittag ) this is a little impression from the south of 🇵🇹 Portugal

won’t make it this time but I send it to my friend nostr:npub1adyd4rlm57z3yudhj4gq94j0qaj28p23lc2nxx5nnzzr28xq5nvsaa5w6k he might join, next time I hopefully make it ! Is it always on the 22. and in the same Location?

I’m writing this because I keep getting asked to comment on Saylor/Saif video even though my position hasn’t changed.

The natural state of the free market is deflation which means all prices fall forever in Bitcoin (assuming it stays decentralized and secure)

Free market economies are more productive meaning faster deflation (or real wealth gains by falling prices)

That system is incompatible with an inflationary monetary system meaning one of those systems must fail.

Either:

1) A system based on truth, hope, and abundance for all 8 billion people on the planet driven by a free market economy and all prices fall relative to bitcoin forever. This means Bitcoin is used as a medium of exchange and freedom tech spreads to the world through lightning, Liquid, Fedimint, Cashu, etc.

OR

2) A control system. An extractive rent seeking system that is NOT the free market (similar to the one we have had for 5000 years that resets every 100 or so years through war) continues to centralize by having you believe price of bitcoin is going up in fiat which makes the surveillance state stronger. This eventually centralizes Bitcoin - custodians, media, regulation (funded from the same manipulation of money) where it is attacked from layer 2. (Similar to gold)

While these ideas may “seem” compatible in the short term because you want Bitcoin to go up in fiat. What it really means is that you are giving your energy and strength to the system centralizing the world by converting Bitcoin to Fiat….to then measure prices.

Quite simply - If Bitcoin is only a store of value, it fails as a store of value.

Ps - It won’t fail. #1 is inevitable in time because too many (and more each day) have seen behind the curtain and are determined to build path #1.

Many of you here - the people that inspire me every day. You make a difference with every word, thought and action.

Almost did that in all caps per nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx because it’s so important.

Referring to # 1 above…..There is no second best.

I guess if humans don’t fail, fiat will die on the long run and if we collapse and some survive those will at least have a better idea of how to act after a big reset.

One thing is the tool right

let's see how we use it

I hope nostr:npub1yh9ep5n77pve7vm28ff90s054xcs5j3vutf7hfapl2zlal6dct8qaek5fk is making progress here in Germany. We’ve woken up, but politics needs to wake up too. If not, I may have to consider leaving my beloved Europe for the sake of my kids’ future. I remain positive and vigilant, staying flexible as the situation evolves. 🙏 to nostr:npub1td3zad8qcgvd7x9uht6sdnfdg5amjcy96d274rla70ldlcemy9gspgm693 nostr:note1xvwsn63hnw3xdk46dujtzl5nml08nqjt5lpzem4c5tuhl7uwsslqhjtfgm
