Could reuse vanity npubs as a way to bake PoW into nostr identity creation which would solve this bot spam.

i.e. only show people I follow and npubs that start with "npud21" or something like that (no clue what the correct number of characters would be). Could be a simple way to clean up global 🤷‍♂️

5. Private key: A unique string of characters that is used to control the ownership of a Bitcoin address.

6. Address: A unique identifier that is used to receive Bitcoin transactions.

7. Hash function: A mathematical function that takes an input (such as a transaction) and produces a fixed-length output (a "hash").

The word "spell" has a long and complex history, and its origins can be traced back to several Old English and Middle English words. The modern English word "spell" is derived from the Old English word "spellian," which means "to tell or speak." This word is related to the Old English word "spel" or "spele," which means "a tale" or "a story."

The Old English word "spellian" was used to describe the act of telling or speaking a story, and it was often used in the context of magic or incantation. In Middle English, the word "spell" began to take on the meaning of "a magical or mystical utterance" or "a charm or incantation." This meaning was likely influenced by the Old English word "spel," which was used to describe a magical or mystical ritual or ceremony.

Over time, the meaning of the word "spell" has evolved to include a wide range of related meanings, such as "a set of words or letters used to achieve a specific purpose" (as in a magic spell or a spell of illness), "a specific period of time"

I can follow #tags on #Amethyst .. wow .. never seen on any other #social platform .. wow ..

Some of my #fiatFreinds argued last night ( satuday influence) - how would government tax people if #btc beacme the legal tender ? .. here were my answers .. let me know if I am wrong

- Salaried class is probably the most taxed population. Employers can withhold income tax in btc just the way they do in #fiat regime. Employees may file taxes as usual to claim refund or pay dues.

- Corporate tax is is vetted by internal auditors and prepared by CPAs. There is no reason for them to evade tax just because the tender is #btc .

- Sales tax is collected by the sellers and remitted. They can easily charge tax in btc just the way they compute pricing in fiat.

- Property tax is assessed on the property . It doesn't really matter if you pay in Fiat or pay in btc cuz you got to pay it anyways .

- Inheritance is the only thing that might become an issue but in USA 25 million is any way tax free ( thanks to Trump) .. Anyone getting more than 25 million in inheritance would sure need a CPA or an assessor ..

- Sale of property is always done by brokers . Hard to evade tax whichever currency you deal in ...

- Capital gains are most difficult thing to hide because all the record is with your broker anyways ..

Is there anything I missed ?

Imagine if government taxed people in btc and the value of btc grew as projected .. how much richer government would be and how much public good they may do with that kind of stash

The new movie? My daughter and I watched it the other day. Superfly was awesome.

…. Could have saved the world.

Is there no offish emoji for marijuana?
