Probably that, but that wouldn't be too big of a deal this early on, one week, my follower list was deleted three times. I can transfer over my Nip05 though, so people know it's me.
Teaching a 'digital hygiene,' or 'online privacy' class in late-elementary or middle school would be beneficial to the national security of our country, but perhaps our government doesn't wish to change our citizens behaviors.
I've been mining a vanity Nostr address for the last 18 hours (on a different phone). I finally figured out the app settings so it doesn't stop the mining if I let it go inactive for a bit. I am trying to get one that starts "npub1tmchn..." for Timechain. If I get it, that would be pretty sweet! I might sit on it and wait for Hierarchical Deterministic Wallets (xpubs kinda things) although, that would be sad, because, nobody could see the address, lol. Hmm.
Just like Google adsense gives you the opportunity to market your product to someone who is already interested in a given subject...
We have hundreds of thousands of Chinese and HK users who started using Nostr for free uncensorable speech, who have not yet enabled LNURL and don't know anything about Bitcoin, free uncensorable money.
This is quite an opportunity. Remember, go slowly, not forcefully, and let them know how it could help THEM out.

great bandI just made this, if anyone are fans out there.
@Rabble (ex-early twitter legend) said on last Nostrovia that 40% of outbound links on Twitter is to Only Fans and 80% of searches on Twitter is for porn. The fact that that could be happening on a website I was on every day without me seeing any of it accidentally shows some great engineering decisions.
Relays should make it known what content they accept and what they don't accept and make the statements clear. Soon, Nostr will have similar 'NSFW' and 'SFW' areas.
Different relays will choose different moderation policies. The free market loves variety. Perhaps different monetization strategies will flourish simultaneously as well.
You know Bitcointvdotcom ? Well, you know what would be awesome? Bitcointvdotcom but we could comment with our npubs. And zap and stuff. The current monetization is just usually a link to a site with a bitcoin address. What you think, #[0] ?
...Actually does the site still exist?
Oh, ok thanks!
#[0] so it's not the biggest deal. But if you're typing something, then you stop and want to paste some text, you long press after the text you typed, it (the cursor) for some reason jumps to the beginning.
Anyway, great work! You definitely have the best Android Nostr App.
They aren't quite Pulitzer Prize Journalists, are they?

This happened last Spring. It's interesting, because of reasons of cultural pride, some people may prefer not to deal with USD, even in digital form.
However, since the US dollar (although also destined to die) will die the slowest, Tether can make some profit by holding US Treasuries, but issuing other countries stablecoins instead.
These are vouchers for the store grubles told me. So they aren't really shitcoins. Fyi.
Little known secret.... Adam is totally a degen trader, lol. Shirt token? lol.
Actually, that picture you paint sounds much better than the way things are, privacy-wise. I would definitely love to see that system replace the current one.
However, I do worry about the effects of creating a too efficient system. For example, if data can be more easily shared, data may be more likely in society to be demanded, as it was during the pandemic.
Countries more comfortable with digital surveillance had stricter lockdowns and contact tracing frequently aided by technology.
My medical records already exist, but I feel no reason to link it to my browsing history, online preferences, etc, anything associated with my online identity. Putting it on Nostr doesn't make me own it, it just adds another copy of it, because the other pre-existing copies of my medical history still exist.
I know this is the type of thing you used to work on, but it really makes Bitcoiners nervous.
Yesterday's stablecoin destabilization caused people to find stability where they could.
This chart is for (the original) USDT on Bitcoin's Omni Layer (yeah, it still exists) which got just under $4 million of transaction volume in 76 transactions yesterday, which is quite a significant spike compared to it's normal volume.
