Where is Dylan LeClair? Why does Lyn Alden post about Egypt musings and not her macro analysis? … Checkmatey? Doomberg? Etc. there is no “content” over here offered by those who are posting it to Twitter.
The informative content here sucks. Said with a smile.
It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done. All day every day…just waiting for the inevitable but having no control. Years of waiting.
I wonder if it’ll be easier next cycle because I’ll be so much above the cost basis it won’t really matter…but this first cycle has been miserable. nostr:note14mwc9mvdxt8h5rqhwmu8t7qlyw7tyswm6jyfarvn6t5xz35uwecsxfn3sl

The question investors will ask by 2030, “Why would I buy your stock/bond when I can just save using bitcoin?”
Also, “why would I pay your fee to manage my money when I can just save using bitcoin?”
The world turned upside down…

It just lacks the network effects (& therefore content) to make it a clearly valuable exchange of my time today.
I’m here and have a low time preference waiting on NOSTR’s development but I miss a lot of the quant / associated commentary content shared on Twitter.
I’d like to see some of the straight macro / data content over here. Understand that’d be an ask for you to do more work - and I’m not entitled to your work - but the analyses and commentary found on Twitter by many of the top followed accounts just doesn’t exist over here. I miss it.
Sure. But that isn’t the case for everyone. The incentive in bitcoin is (1) accumulate wealth (mine/buy) and (2) protect wealth (run a node). The rules are defined. The execution of the protocol predictable. The incentives for participants are (nearly) perfect and are (truly) synergistic.
“Protecting” freedom of speech isn’t really defined nor is it measurable nor is it predictable. Protect speech against who? Protect what type of speech? Who is delivering the speech? What’s the reach of the speech? What the truth factor of the speech? What’s the novelty of the speech? What’s the timing of the speech? Where is the physical location of the speech?
Who profits from posting/hosting the speech? What determines how much they are compensated for the speech? Can the hosts or the posters predict their value flows?
NOSTR is by far a less effective protocol vs. bitcoin. Worse protocol but still important. Speaks more to the perfection of Bitcoin vs. a strong criticism of NOSTR.
Bitcoin is a protocol that fixes the world by aligning participants’ financial incentives to increase productivity in energy & computing.
NOSTR is a decentralized protocol that enables free speech. But who gets paid and how still has to be figured out by centralized (even if they’re benevolent) actors.
I might consider paying a monthly rate to be automatically spread pro rata across all the posts I like. But the allocation of value to any single post is inefficient and clunky. nostr:note1557lg64h8mvjpt9w962yre7trx4k9p5ul26eua7lzf9tfl08s69skc8jqx
Lost in this Biden gaffe…everyone but Zelenskyy is wearing a suit. He is somehow still wearing his combat chic and the Western world just goes along with it. As soon as “they” put him in a suit he’s just a money grubbing politician that the masses will toss aside like the rest of the corrupt lot. They’ll lose support for their action in Ukraine, which is critically important for their ends…whatever those ends might be.
It’s an obvious psyop. Probably the most obvious since I’ve started to pay attention.
Put him in a suit! LET HIM WEAR A SUIT! nostr:note1929y7g68xqf4pgahy0zqrq7frr20qy8v0nvjk9p8t4dsg2crnqnsnzecgk
There is very little value in social media posts. Posts are effectively NFTs. This meme made me chuckle. But memes that make me chuckle are like oxygen, important but plentiful. Therefore, free.

No. The orders of magnitude and required subsidies get outta control real fast. nostr:note1qjq3987wd0245xqu22xzpcl3xm8f682cfqyy4aenk6r37uqd5yhqy0nupa
The incentive structure on NOSTR isn’t nearly as pure and obvious as it is in Bitcoin. Bitcoin works because everyone is incentivized to participate, in one way or another.
NOSTR is a platform you can choose to use but if anything it gives you less than legacy social media. Sometimes less is more but still … the incentive to use NOSTR isn’t pure and obvious. nostr:note1f7zrudzgxxq29m0rh3ne5exq9qzwvahvaguszr40an7m3uzws3ysaxt7ht
