welcome, Clarence 🤙

“To me nostr is an extension of bitcoin. Conceptually, socially, … kind of technically. I think the best way to work on bitcoin right now is to just work on nostr”

Big takeaway from discussion with #[0]​ today:

Nostr is an OS

https://nostrapp.link hints at a new App Store model which could be built entirely native to Nostr. Artur is a bit modest, but I think that’s what he’s scratching here.

This app store isn’t really for mobile apps running on iOS/Android, but for micro-app features that run on the OS of Nostr.

I think some of the discovery features are already exposed as a service and used by clients like Snort, Iris, and Current. Is that what you meant or some other kinds of data services you had in mind?

I’m hosting #[0]​ author of https://nostr.band for a video chat today. What topics should we add to the agenda?

1) Meta-apps, App Store replacement, Micro-app containers

2) How should relay discovery and surfacing work in the UI

3) The joy of Nostr development

4) Ads models that might work on Nostr

The “about” page of #[0]​’s nostrapp.link is funny:

"Every day new apps are created by awesome Nostr devs.

Every minute three new event kinds are invented by Pablo.

How could you discover those new apps? How could you control which apps to use? For which event kind? On which device?”

This is a clever service. I’m going to learn more about it today when I make a video with Artur.

It always comes back to managing risk and it’s a spectrum of risk/pricing of the loan. Credit checks help the lender lower risk by knowing more about to whom they’re lending and pricing it more appropriately for that assessed risk.

yup, over-collaterazlied loans help the lender manage risk against the typical downside volatility in the asset.

of course, over time I’d guess the volatility likely dampens and LTVs might go up, but that’s over the “years” timeframe

“if you think that AI is coming for your job and if you want some cheap insurance against becoming obsolete as a human being in this new machine to machine economy it might make sense to get some AI Insurance — in other words to buy some Bitcoin” #[0]
