GM ☀️

Why do we say GM?

Nostr represents a radical leap toward a freer, more dynamic internet. With Nostr we get absolute free speech, open competition, and genuine user autonomy.

On Nostr, we control our identities through cryptographic keys, so we can join any community we want without losing our followers, content, or voice.

And because the network relies on many independent “relays” rather than a single central server, there’s no single gatekeeper to censor or deplatform you.

By integrating Bitcoin’s Lightning Network for micropayments, Nostr opens new possibilities for creators and entrepreneurs. Imagine zapping someone a few cents for a clever post or paying directly for valuable insights—no middleman, no hidden fees. It transforms social media into a global marketplace of ideas and services, free from the advertising-driven business models that dominate Big Tech.

Nostr offers a blueprint for disrupting entrenched monopolies in the same way open-source software upended proprietary giants. Instead of complaining about Silicon Valley’s control, we can build a world where users own their data, creators earn directly from their audience, and innovation happens in the open. It’s a rare glimpse of real progress—one that puts individual freedom and entrepreneurial spirit front and center.

We’re witnessing the reemergence of a truly open internet. If you believe that tech should empower people rather than exploit them, Nostr is where you want to be spending your time. Nostr is the most promising and disruptive idea since Bitcoin.

And on Nostr we say GM.

The Genesis Book by nostr:npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 is so good and is very easy to read.

I have dozens of books queued up and often pick one that is slow to get through which stalls my progress completely.

This is a real page turner.

Agreed! One, if not the best book in the space.

I try to understand. But why is it easier? Is it a usability issue? In Aqua Wallet, for example, I can simply swap it. It's easy. Is it more permissionless?

I understand the benefits of Tether USDT. I just want to understand in more detail what the advantage of USDT on Lightning is compared to Liquid, for example. In both cases, you need permission from Tether.

That sounds reasonable. If you say they are already in the network. What does that mean exactly? In both cases (Lightning network, Liquid) you need Tether to make a swap. I don't quite understand the advantage of being “in the network” yet.

Everyone is celebrating the news that Tether USDT is launching on the Lightning Network. Why is this a good thing? What is the advantage compared to Tether on Liquid, for example? I don't understand the hype at all right now. But maybe some of you can enlighten me.

I know them but I didn’t know what they look like. So thank you for the picture. 🙏🏽

@all: read “the genesis book” by nostr:npub1art8cs66ffvnqns5zs5qa9fwlctmusj5lj38j94lv0ulw0j54wjqhpm0w5 and learn more about these two guys and the history of #Bitcoin.

Been using it for some time. It's really good and quite private.

The problem I've been having since today. They have started their own shitcoin. 🙈

Calling all bitcoiners. Please take the time to listen to this. What emotional and wise words!👇🏽

Biden has just pardoned Fauci. This is so fucked up!
