Seems legit.

Yes. Exit.pub by nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft

If you look at my profile on nostr.band, it says I was first active 5/9/2021 on Nostr.

I had no idea what Nostr was then. I created this npub in December of 2023.

However, I used exit.pub to upload all my tweet history to Nostr for my account created shortly after I got into Bitcoin.

Depends on whether you have made a backup of them anywhere.

Citrine can restore your follows for you if you are running it and have previously backed them up.

Same thing with https://metadata.nostr.com/

If you haven't backed them up anywhere, though, I am not sure what to do.

Can help with this next meetup, if you want to be able to switch back and forth with both.

Love to see that you are getting active over here on Nostr! And thank you so much for the kind words!

This group up here in the wild north needs someone like you to light a fire under us to get out and socialize with other great Bitcoiners.

Doesn't have to be either/or. Money can have other advantages while ultimately existing to solve the problem of trust, which is fundamentally a moral problem.

And I would argue that while money is more efficient than barter, by far, it is not more efficient than credit. Yet, credit reintroduces the need for trust of people who are ultimately not worthy of it. Even when we try to organize the way credit is used in order to make the issuers of credit more trustworthy, we find that the temptation to abuse the privilege is too strong, and they sooner or later, usually sooner, violate that trust.

Sound money also has the added benefit of putting a natural limitation on the amount of evil a government can afford to perpetrate. When you have a money printer, you can extract far more value from your citizens without their consent in order to fund endless wars and line your own pockets. Not so when there is no mechanism to arbitrarily inflate the money supply.

The double coincidence of wants problem can be solved one of two ways:

1. Trusting that the other person will "pay you back" a favor of roughly equivalent value in the future.

2. Money

Because you cannot trust people to do 1, due to immorality and corruption, we use 2 instead.

It has EVERYTHING to do with evil and depravity.

Thanks! Your article was a great read, too.

Money exists because trust doesn't. The necessity for money to exist is proof of the doctrine of total depravity.

The form of money best equipped to reign-in total depravity in a digital age is #Bitcoin

Agreed! I think the best practice would be to show a shared note at the point in my timeline where it was most recently shared, and at no other point in the "past."

This way boosts still function to get a note seen by more people, but timelines aren't dominated by a single popular note showing up over and over again.

Coming back to this now that I have a chance to respond, and it's too bad we naturally tend to see statements like this as either/or, rather than both/and, just to different degrees.

Zaps have definitely helped some with Nostr's adoption, and I agree with folks who point out that we need a way to natively transfer value to one another, and especially the devs building the Nostr tools we use, in order for this thing to be sustainable.

However, when it comes to new users onboarding to Nostr, I doubt the "Come to Nostr, we have zaps!" mantra is what draws most of them here.

Instead, I would bet that more people now are adopting Bitcoin because of their experience of zaps on Nostr than people adopting Nostr because it has zaps.

Haven't tried one before either. Will report back. 🫡

Working fine for me:

Love it! Ink and paper is always more satisfying for journaling, IMO.

Picked up this set over the weekend and looking forward to putting it to work.

Interesting concept... Anyone you know of already working on this?

The closest thing I know of is Wikifreedia, but those are each separate versions of the same article, therefore separate events, and any author can choose to update/merge someone else's version into their own.

Adjacent question, since you gents obviously like to keep your data away from the big tech conglomerates:

What, if anything, are you using for health and fitness tracking with your smart watches? Anything that can back data up to a self-hosted server?

So, a collaborative event, and each user is signing for the portion they contributed to it?
