Wondering what’s next

Have you seen many hot girls so far?

It’s mostly mental illness, cellulite, and sadness.

Very little is needed.

Once the criminals know they can’t block roads or destroy priceless artifacts they’ll stop completely.

We’re dealing with lunatics and cowards here.

A few examples are all that’s needed.

It’s going to happen wether we like it or not.

At the rate we’re going the answers will be simple and brute force. Thousands of echo-chambers circle jerking themselves into oblivion.

I’m proposing there is an alternative, even if I’m not aware of what the alternative could or should be, I know it exists.

The flooding of the market with tea….

How did you copy my writing style so perfectly?

Perhaps you are a bot….

All good points, though…

What’s happening now though is literally “global.” (Though I have a feeling that there’s a very small active number of current users).

Many people highlighted the fact they didn’t want to see the nudity, and they weren’t religious prudes. They’re individuals that want to be able to freely scroll near their their friends, family, and kids.

I’ve brought this up numerous times, but we need ways to sort users, and complex questions cannot be answered through simple theory.

We’re building a new world here and it’s imperative that we figure this out so Nostr can truly be for everyone, not just the worst of us.

My new signature #zap is 84 sats.

Here’s why:

84 is the two-digit abbreviation for 1984. It’s the year Apple under its founder Steve Jobs released the first Mac and started a revolution in personal computing. They celebrated this with a legendary Super Bowl ad created by the agency Chiat/Day and directed by Ridley Scott. It directly referenced the George Orwell novel Nineteen Eighty-Four, depicting a dystopian future world where a totalitarian figure known as Big Brother has absolute power over the population, controlling their behavior and warping their sense of reality, and one person singlehandely challenging the status quo.

In the almost 40 years since and under new leadership, Apple has transformed itself into everything it originally stood against, and now holds innovators and digital pioneers hostage, extorts value from them, and actively stands in the path of the decentralized revolution they know is coming, are powerless to stop, yet hope they can delay because it threatens their power.

The other reason I chose 84 is because it is a multiple of 21, a reference to the maximum supply of 21 million bitcoin that will ever exist by the time the final block is mined more than a century from now. 4x21 also symbolizes the block halving, whereby the supply of new bitcoin is reduced by 50% every four years. The time between each halving is a period historically marked by a gradual rise then sudden explosion in both the fiat-denominated value of the asset and the attention it attracts, followed by an eventual and lengthy collapse of both. During these times, we are given the opportunity to build new technology, grow our community, and see who stays for the next cycle, and who only showed up for what they thought was easy money.

This time around, we built #nostr, allowing us to begin to unshackle ourselves from abusive relationships with all-seeing, controlling, and corrupt social media and technology giants, and to use #bitcoin as the built-in mechanism by which we reward our fellow users for the value of the content they share. We are not selling digital goods, as Apple says. We are sharing digital good. They don’t understand this yet, and they may never, but in the end, it won’t matter, because in both nostr and bitcoin, we’ve discovered something that can’t be stopped, and will only become stronger as it is attacked. Apps will come and go, but protocols are here to say. I am confident that 116 years into the future, bitcoin will still exist, but Apple most likely will not.

We may have a long way to go to find the freedom we are seeking, but this is only the beginning. We are unstoppable.

Because well, it’s cool.

84 sounds pretty nice too

There are many in the world that do not believe in truth.

The truth not only exists, it’s the only thing that matters.
