Taking responsibility of your own algorithm requires effort. But the payoff is worth it.

If I had a dollar for every time the currency was debased, I'd be broke.
Sign #22 you might be a bitcoiner:
You own a two billion dollar t-shirt that you bought in 2009.
Yeah, so relays essentially keep a copy of who sent what to who, no?
I believe that's how they used to open and close lightning channels in the early days of bitcoin.
You might find one in an old, old wooden ship.
Shower thought:
Nostr relays collectively act as a transparent ledger in lightning transactions when users zap each other. 🤯
Nostr is like the freakin blockchain of zaps.
And a lot of farmers would have to quickly pivot to growing actual food.
Implemented a tariff on my raw milk. (+1000%)
Seems to be the latest craze.
Oh, but I'll waive it if you pay in bitcoin.
(checks profile). Out of interest, how does one do push-ups without arms?
Your tube is your shield, ser.

I love her, but she's going to turn my hair grey.
Then we're back to the good ol days of, whoever is wealthiest controls the information.
--> Can't edit or delete notes on nostr <--
Hear me out.
What if instead of writing a note that you either want to edit later or delete you instead write a note in "publishing client" that then generates a nostr client renderable URL and it's that URL that gets sent as a note.
You don't know it's a URL because you just see the rendered note in the nostr client.
If I go back and edit the note in my publishing client the URL remains unaffected but the next time someone looks at my note what renders is the edited content of that very same URL? Think of it like the URLs from nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgqgdwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkcqpqhee433872q2gen90cqh2ypwcq9z7y5ugn23etrd2l2rrwpruss8qxc5787 's GifBuddy: You don't see the URL you just see the rendered gif naively as a note like this
This would probably necessitate that you have to keep your own dedicated hard drive space for the notes or may leverage something like blossom.

I may be wrong here, but the malleability of notes has to be approved by relays to ensure no funny business is going on.
I'll give you an example.
You post a note (url) that says 'like' and 'boost' if you like puppies.
Then a day later you change the word 'puppies' to 'government'.
This may have a reputational effect on anyone that interacted with your note. Use your imagination on more sinister examples.
Bitcoin is a shield.
And when we're all holding shields, there's no need for swords.
Sign #20 you might be a bitcoiner:
You're the least presentable but the most comfortable at an event. You look down. You're not wearing shoes.
Technically, that would be shorting the dollar.
It's possible. You just need to borrow a shit ton of dollars.
Ask the US govt. They're really good at it.
