Is Tom on Nostr? We should bug him to if not
Here’s one from a guy who is angry at his dad for investing in Bitcoin over his objections - and he *still* won’t get vaccinated! 
TIL there exists a subreddit called /r/buttcoin - it is filled with no-coiner basement dwellers who spend their entire day running down Bitcoin
They recently discovered Nostr and can’t stand it…

Twitter seems to have removed displaying the article title and excerpt for links to external articles.
This is killing me right now 🤣🤣

Sometimes it feels like social media incentivizes unhinged-ness.
Always good to have a few pounds of that around - almost wrote that in my latest piece but didn’t want to get off topic
The idea that "sticking to cash" will help stave off a cashless society is both wrong-headed and self-destructive.

The fake @jb55 could still stand up a valid NIP-05 using a different address and then put your domain in the profile.
That’s why you need the triangulate with the DNS TXT record (in a way, this is a continuation of the argument I’ve been having with nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 for nearly a year except I hadn’t thought of the fake Nostr handle issue until now. )
FYI we met very briefly at Bitcoin 2023 and I was going on about adding NIP-05 npub to DNS then.
(Yeah, I’m *that* guy)

How would it work with other fake accounts? For example, a celebrity creates a real account. Then someone creates a fake account. How would we know which one is real and which one is fake?
The celebrity puts a TXT record in their domain name which is in their profile - the imposter also puts the same domain in their profile (they always do )
The domain tells the client what the true npub is for that domain - when I wrote the original article we released a proof-of-concept chrome plug-in that shows the concept in action

Ok so I looked and the method I’m proposing would totally work in this case.
nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s would add a TXT record to damos.io with his npub and any clients to that built in a lookup would know which one was fake and which one was real.
Will - can I see an example of a fake profile or two?
I had a couple ideas around this (for Twitter ) which may translate for NIP-05

First Bombthrower post in awhile:
“Far right” basically means anything that contests the Establishment orthodoxy…
https://bombthrower.com/what-does-far-right-even-mean-anymore/
Can you shoot me an example or two?
I want to look at whether the solution I’ve proposed in the past that would solve this on Twitter would work for NIP-05 (and possibly have a shot at being adopted )
Hey Coinbase, you can fuck off. We don't need your shitcoin exchange in Canada.

Easy there fella.
There's a Nostr thread happening on Hackernews right now if anybody wants to chip in.
We are back from Europe: Croatia: Dubrovnik, Split, Hvar, Svet Klement; Serbia: Belgrade; Germany: Frankfurt, Berlin, Frankfurt- home.
Tired. GN Nostriches. 
Something happened to me today that’s never happened before in my entire life:
We’re catching a flight and one of the counter agents starts calling my name:
“Jeftovic? Jeftovic!”
I go up - and it turns out, “Not you, some other Jeftovic”
We are in Belgrade. But it was weird.
GM Nostr. From Belgrade.
