I get that. Same goes for Bitcoiner. I love hanging out with them.
But I really want to tell people about these solutions (Nostr / Bitcoin), so they also have the opportunity to opt for them.
Just like someone once told me about them. My life changed so much for the better. I want that opportunity for everyone.
We should build bridges though. Otherwise we are just talking to ourselves.
platform vs public space
For my own understanding, I put this in a physical realm thought experiment:
A public space is a square or agora, if u will.
A platform, let’s call it a stage, is build on such a public space.
People can speak or perform on the square or on the stage. One is permissionless the other is not. It doesn’t tell you anything about the quality of the speaker or performer, if they are on that stage, but it sure directs the attention.
Public spaces give anyone the option to speak or perform. That does not exempt them from consequences of that action of course.
The best part is: I decide to stay and listen or go somewhere else.
All can be said, that doesn’t mean you have to listen. Kind of like #nostr

#ProofOfWalk

Reading “The history of money” (Jack Weatherford) right now. I like it a lot so far.
My favorites I read last year:
- Discipline Is Destiny
- Medici Money
- The Lessons of History
- Economics in One Lesson
What were your favorites last year?
What books are you reading right now?
The only problem with this, that I see at the moment, is that I would possibly get endless notifications from the wallet.
So a customizable filter or threshold for notifications would be nice.

Another alternative is backing up your history on your own relay for example with nostr:npub1aghreq2dpz3h3799hrawev5gf5zc2kt4ch9ykhp9utt0jd3gdu2qtlmhct.
I absolutely agree!
The quality of the content can only improve if everyone feels responsibility for what they say.

What if you would require signing with nsec? (No idea if that’s possible just an idea)
I’m just concerned about possible problems with “fake” zaps in the future.
nostr:npub1u8lnhlw5usp3t9vmpz60ejpyt649z33hu82wc2hpv6m5xdqmuxhs46turz What are your thoughts on this?
Ist there a way to prevent this or at least show that the zap did come from someone else as a boost or something?
Isn’t that a problem? If it shows up as my zap, but it wasn’t mine, then that would give maybe a different kind of signal (feedback) that I did not intend to give.
What do you think?
I have a question about #Zapplepay.
In theory you could choose to power boost someone else right? If I would connect my wallet with someone else’s npub?
Then every time he / she likes something I would zap for / as that person.
Is this possible? If so… is that a good thing?
