Interesting...
I use Amethyst; perhaps I just haven't tried persistently lately.
Can you edit the typo?๐ค
Curiously interesting artwork at the bitcoin show in Las Vegas.๐ค๐ง
I believe when you said "demands to prove is worthiness" you more likely meant to say "demands to prove its worthiness."
Do you agree with me that nostr needs editability?๐ค๐ง
The only argument against it--historical auditability--is blown away if implemented as a dated, versioning system that preserves what an author first said while allowing for both corrections and changes in thinking.๐
Hey, Fren,
Kudos on a very insightful, well reasoned, and encouraging piece... You reminded me of something Paul, Jesus' Ambassador, once said:
***"But if you bite and devour one another, beware that you are not consumed by one another."***
\- Galatians 5:15
You also reminded me; I need to write up an article on why nostr needs versioned editability, as I noticed a very minor typo...๐๐คฃ
I believe I understand what you're going for here; however, there is great value in community, cooperation, collaboration, and service PROVIDED they are 100% voluntary and not coerced.๐
Some of the most creative and enjoyable moments in my life came when I was working with others on projects I believed in, saw better ways, and spearheaded their implementation. I was also rewarded, though perhaps not as greatly as had I been sole owner.
I have also succeeded with projects I entirely owned, but working together with other creatives is often more productive.๐
At bitcoin2025...
Where else could you be casually strolling down an aisle and see an OG like Adam Back being interviewed?

What's the prognosis???๐โ
Ignore "the system." It is literally demonic.
https://peakd.com/anarchy/@creatr/human-governments-are-satanic
Do whatever ***good*** you can find to do ***regardless*** of any system.
Become a positive element in a new, decentralized, 100% ***voluntary*** system as superior to the existing system as light is to darkness.๐

It's not just "the Pope" and his minions; you'll find "substitute chosen ones" (i.e., "anti-christs") in all Christian denominations, as well as claiming to run every state everywhere...
According to his ambassador (and author of much of the New Testament) Paul, ***Jesus*** is the "Blessed and ONLY Sovereign."
(1st Timothy 6:15)

Las Vegas bitcoin2025 was dope.
Just sayin'...๐
More news when I recover enough energy to share it....๐คฃ
๐Thanks, Alan, for sharing:๐
I'm not conversant in German; however, I find that noun declension in Koine Greek adds a freedom of emphasis unavailable in English due to the forced word ordering resulting from its lack.
Have you had a look at Greek? Latin? Hebrew?
English has many obvious deficiencies. It's lost the ability to distinguish between singular and plural in the 2nd personal pronoun (i.e., you).
No 3rd person imperative form.
No regular declension of noun cases.
We could do better...๐๐คฃ๐
When I was a kid, Penny Candy was still a thing. And a penny had useful, standalone value.๐ค
Of course, at the time, candy bars like a Babe Ruth were still only a nickel.๐๐คฃ๐
Patience and time, friend!๐๐ป๐ซ๐
I think the expanding constellation of nostr tools will help, if and as we find and learn to use them...
And of course, greater adoption.
Just now realizing I neglected to snap a photo of the awesome pizza we enjoyed for Bitcoin Pizza Day yesterday...๐ค๐ง Oh, well...๐
For the 2025 record: It was Round Table Pizza's excellent, extra large "Gourmet Veggie."
There's a slice left in the fridge... The big question is, "Hungry as I am ATM, when I get home, will I remember to snap a photo before I devour it?"
Taking bets...๐คฃ๐
The trick, in the long run, is finding your audience, your authentic tribe...๐ค๐ง๐
Even then, everyone is so stinkin' busy these days, finding time to enjoy the creativity of others can be tough...๐
But in the long run, I really believe that nostr will ultimately grow to become the enabling protocol for those of us who--because of the natural drive Jesus/God has built into us--have a compulsion to create valuable content.
I believe nostr will eventually grow sufficiently large to connect us with enough people who deeply appreciate our work that their Value For Value (V4V) gifts will be adequate to support us as we focus on the work we love.๐ซ๐๐

Do you know of ANY nostr client that does as good a job rendering markdown?๐ค
(*special to nostr*)

Though volatile, when properly understood, bitcoin is the protocol that will ultimately absorb and represent ALL the present and future wealth of humanity.
Even in the end-gameโafter the last satoshi has been mined and all bitcoin is in circulationโbitcoin will continuously increase in value as mankind, year upon year, creates and introduces new wealth into the world. While estimates of the annual benefit vary, a bitcoinized world will likely enjoy a minimum of five percent annual deflation, and more likely twelve percent or more.
Because of this, you know that EVERY transaction that involves your selling or spending bitcoin is a transaction that will ultimately benefit the bitcoin recipient infinitely more than it presently benefits you.
For many reasons, you will of course continue to transact...
One is necessity; bitcoin will have become the only money that most are willing to accept, all others being evidently inferior.
You will have to spend bitcoin for goods and services that you may need or want, or else have to barter or work for them.
If you have been prudent enough to retire on bitcoin, you may occasionally need to exchange it for some lesser currency, knowing full well you are on the losing end of the bargain, though it benefit you *in the moment*.
My point is this:
You need never feel ANY remorse for the other party when spending, exchanging, or selling your bitcoin. Even if its apparent momentary value may fluctuate wildly, bitcoin is as sure to rise as tomorrow's Sun. It's now up to the recipient to either HODL, or be on the losing end of the next transaction.
