I assemble seedsigners for fun and backup. They cost me about $50-60 US dollars to make. I have a growing pile of them and realized I just may be overdoing it for no obvious reason (OCD?). Is there a market here to sell them for zaps? I would only be interested in covering my cost and shipping, zero profit for me because my motivation for doing this is to introduce others to bitcoin and the joy and ease of offline signers, but the growing pile of signers on my workbench exposes the fact that I don’t know a single bitcoiner irl. Is there already a #nostr ā€˜marketplace’ somewhere? #asknostr

any other anon #nostriches toying with the idea of joining #nostr as their real self? I’ve always done social media from behind the cloak, but the vibe here inspires hardcore #authenticity which I think can only be fully realized by introducing one’s real self, and interacting with others as such. The pull is strong. I have made contributions to the cryptography community in my published writings (straight cryptography, no blockchain), but I’m still fearful of exposing myself as a toxic bitcoiner to the world (judgement, employment issues, home invasions, ransom problems with family members,etc) lol. Anyone? #asknostr

Hey, I'm Jordan. I published a free fiction book on #nostr called Guidestone! It's a Bitcoin parable—the first of many in the Pleb Tales series. I'll link the original post here (https://primal.net/e/note1dg7uu7wkga3vkeeffkrp33e2wlv96x8ps0pm4stqaa8lnwkkzursqn6vtn , follow the comments to read the story, like a thread). It's also in my nostr read but the images are only available on Primal in a browser if you want to read it there. I'm also working on a novel version and screenplay that should come out this year.

I just got my first paperbacks, and even though #nip-15 was too hard for me to figure out šŸ˜†, I want to sell my book here until I can get a nostr store up and running! Send a message if you want one (or a few). $15usd if you are in the US! Just send me a message with the shipping address and zap this post. I'll send tracking the next day. I'm hoping to make my first few sales today!

great to have you here! Your work is inspiring

Seedsigner all the way. You don’t need your signer to come in a pretty box from a company

This seems like a good opportunity to do an #introductions since I never did a proper nostr introduction so here I am. I’m Carson and I joined nostr about 2 years ago when I saw Jack Dorsey tweet his npub. As I learned about nostr, I got excited because it actually fixes the issue of censorship, and serves as a protocol engineered for free speech. I'd been mostly off social media for a few years (more because It's easy to waste time on and I’m worried about how it’ll affect my brain down the line). Nostr introduced me to bitcoin, and though I haven’t read as deep as I’d like into it yet, it seems to be pretty cool.

I am in my senior year of college. I will be graduating with a BS in Materials Science and Engineering in a few short months. I chose this path because of the interest in nanomaterials (carbon nanotubes, more specifically) I developed in high school. While in school, I got a job working in a nanomaterials research lab, where I became associate manager (until I quit today!).

Through working in research for nearly four years and reading research for five years, I have come to think research and research publishing could benefit from change. It is in my goals this year to learn to code and build what I see as the solution to the issues with research, and share that here with y’all.

One of my main goals at the moment is to find a job for when I graduate. I’m really interested in moving to the Austin or Houston areas. However, I recognize that I am at the mercy of life and the opportunities I encounter. I am entrepreneurial, fast learning, and motivated to work hard, given the right environment.

I love talking to and learning from people, biking, reading, wristwatches, cars and motorcycles (and fixing them). There’s lots more to me that I’ll try to share over time.

I haven't engaged a ton with the community on here, but I've followed some of y’all for a long time, and am happy to be a witness to the awesomeness here. Here’s to getting to know you all better and getting more involved this year! nostr:note19nfem7rpkcgc0427t87lg3qej7nffpu96tnhaqm9nkygmq6qyxfqpde9ez

Great to meet you Carson. I look forward to interacting with you here

when I was younger I would have thought this was brilliant, but now I know the brain takes hits like the body, and sometimes memories crumble. Also, if you want to store bitcoin in your head, there are easier ways to do it than memorizing 12 random words

tickets on the two ships plus spending money cost me about $73 in bitcoin bought yesteryear. Not bragging, I just mention this because I started dca-ing after bitcoin was into 3 digits and I felt like I had missed the boat, and all the millionaires had been made after buying in at $0.83 a coin, etc.

Imagine my surprise seeing ngu this high. This will happen again, so stack now like your life depends on it. Those sats are going to be worth 10-100 times more in a few years.

the only real way to escape/relax/recharge for me

You could send me to a hotel room ANYWHERE on earth and I would not feel as good as this view makes me feel

This guy is a scammer. All he ever posts is some link to lure you into his scam
