I had a discussion with my girlfriend about #Bitcoin today, and here's what she asked:
What chance does a small minority of Bitcoiners have against the cantillionaire elites, considering how much money and power they have?
What would you reply?
I'm keeping an open mind; What if I'm wrong and Bitcoin isn't the answer? So far, it looks like it is 😉
#Bitcoin is a democracy that works

GM & PV Nostr, how's your day going? 💜⚡
I've read this trippy and unique article yesterday, check it out:

Are there any badges for clueless people like me who still don't know what the badges are? 😆
I mostly agree with the implementation, however I feel like offline events that require presence at the specific place at a specific time would be too cumbersome for many people, thus limiting the adoption of such approach. Plus, there's a trust aspect (how large the verifier party should be?) and lack of anonymity.
There's a project called Idena which does synchronous verification events online, where people should solve a Turing test in a strictly limited time. It's not perfect, but it does create a trustless network of semi-unique pseudonymous identities

Are your lucid dreaming skills good enough to get an Art Dreamer job?
Here's a paper about image reconstruction from human brain activity:

So that's what they meant by "Circular economy" 😆
