I think this might be a strong factor. The lot here is not easily trollable (a friend told me)

My 3 sats

1. Nostr is still relatively small. I read last week there's like 20K active accounts. That's not much and there is still no critical mass at this point so bad actors have little to gain in coming here and messing things up

2. It's still quite homogeneous with Bitcoin being topic number one and then various pro-freedom dabbling. This might be working as a deterrent for troublemakers (Bluesky and/or Mastodon might be targets with lower entry barrier)

Well I guess that were my 2 sats 😅

"Competitor" is probably a better description. Less judgmental. Less emotional 👍

At this level all three (China and Russia *and* the US) probably count as evil but it's sort of irrelevant. What matters is alignment of the values (even if superfluous) and the West is more on the same side with the US than China or Russia. They have different mental models and different moralities. Therefore I am concerned with the US giving the field away so easily

But well. It happens already and we can only watch it as it's unfolding

I never said China was evil. Stop projecting. I said China is an enemy of the US and the US is giving away its areas of influence. And that's a stupid activity

Totalitarian clown world. I like this description

The guy introduces Greatest Ragpull Of All Time (GROAT) in a form of $TRUMP and bitcoiners are still hopefull for a proper regulation of their beloved cryptocurrency. You're all gonna be fucked hard. I don't even pity you

Well you'll see now when China takes over. You'll see what it is to be out of influencing others. This is so shortsighted that it's unbelievable

The power to call shots. Isolating yourself from the world like that can give you North Korea at best. Not to mention that with USAID theyl US creates void and it will be filled most likely by China. So not only the US recinds their power but they let the enemy to take over. Realy 👏

BTW it was done by Gerard Brom which I learned only last year. id Software wanted to hire Boris Valejo but he was too pricey

Heretic

Killing off USAID and leaving IMF is simply stupid because yeah that costs money but you get value out of it. Knwoledge and influence. Why would any country voluntarily get rid of that? It's the things like those that build the power of the US

At least the person at the toilet next to you cannot throw their poop at you

The lack of any criticality from posts here is nothing short of staggering 😅

You laugh but I already earned 487 sats (48 cents) with my shitposting here. And who's laughing now?

It would be good if I could transfer it to my BTC wallet but one day (I found a service that does that but the minimum amount is 50K sats) but hey this way I get to have Diamond Hands

It's a de facto regulated market and regulated by a single private entity

Is that BJ Blazkowicz?

Somehow watching the world burning to the ground feom the distance became my hobby

Yeah apparently Germany is also a bit backward. It's hard to pay with the card in many places etc. The US was on the forefront and now pays the price of it

Historically he has been using a phone and terribly outdated which was raised as a genuine hacking threat (scenario: they hack his Twitter account and start a war with North Korea). I doubt he's using computer now but who knows with him
