Presenting... 📚 https://bookstr.xyz, a simple Goodreads alternative built on Nostr!

This is an extremely basic prototype that only barely works (user beware!). However, I think it highlights what is amazing about building on Nostr. I was inspired by this post, and then able to build a client in 3 days almost entirely with AI.

The opportunity to bridge social behavior with "other stuff" (in this case, books via Open Library API) is huge. This concept could work for any type of content, not just books. Music, Movies and TV, games, etc. — all on Nostr.

The process of building on Nostr with AI also demonstrated a few gaps in the ecosystem where AI-ready tools were missing or failing, so there is definitely opportunity to grow there.

Shout out nostr:nprofile1qydhwumn8ghj76r9de5x7atnv5h8xmmrd9skctmjv4kxz7gqyqzxrl97e3xrxazrnyeddw83zf5uekmue9e667js4cmzmvf4536d6qvllke who had many of these ideas first, helped me with lots of the Nostr event specifics, and solved a couple bugs!

Overall, I'm extremely impressed by what can be done with AI on Nostr and all the doors this will open! I'm excited to keep working on this. #bookstr #GrowNostr #AI #Nostr

"With the Dollar backed stablecoins, you'll help expand the dominance of the US Dollar [...] It will be at the top, and that's where we want to keep it"

What he means is:

with Dollar backed stablecoins, the Global South will pivot towards digital Dollars over local currencies, allowing private, US Gov controlled entities to replace bank accounts around the globe.

This does not just allow for the expansion of USD dominance by bypassing local governments – it gives the US unprecedented and direct control over worldwide economies as every stablecoin can be effectively frozen on behalf of the US with the click of a button.

Additionally, it will provide the US with never seen before surveillance capabilities, providing real time access to financial transactions around the globe – fueling the unparalleled public-private partnership between Silicon Valley and the US war machine.

If you are promoting stablecoins, you are promoting the end of national sovereignty in favor of total techno-fascist dystopia.
