great smelling individual

perhaps I got the wrong thing out of this episode but it sounds like #zkrollups and #bitvm are just proof of stake on #bitcoin. I'll pass. https://fountain.fm/episode/rB4mCrDAQqILBmp1qpIC

you can't compare ecash to phoenix. phoenix is an implementation of a protocol that aims to fix or minimize issues with the protocol it implements. ecash is a concept with multiple protocols, as I understand it. im assuming the NUTs for cashu are not used in fedimint. the difference is the protocols based on chaumian ecash by nature of implementing ecash have to have a centralized mint for creating tokens. lightning does not inherently require this centralized authority, even though in practice the centralization can make transactions simpler, as seen with phoenix.

well that's not comparing the same thing. just because there is a centralization doesn't mean it's inherent to the protocol. with ecash, the centralization is built-in and a requirement.

I just realized I'm more likely to understand a metal screaming vocalist than scott stapp's vocals. #music #musicstr #creed

haha well that would make sense. as long as it's understood it is that way because of the inherent centralization.

honestly I think the pay to pubkey thing that nostr:npub12rv5lskctqxxs2c8rf2zlzc7xx3qpvzs3w4etgemauy9thegr43sf485vg talked about on #CitadelDispatch recently is super cool. allows for offline payments, I believe. I don't _think_ it requires communication with the mint to complete but I might be incorrect there.

uhh yes? I'd agree with that. more tools leads to more good. more options for levels of hodl'ing is good. I just don't understand why people always say "it just works." sure it does. it's a centralized service that issues the tokens.

to those amazed that ecash "just works," it's easy to make it just work when issuance and transfers and centralized.

i thought i read somewhere that #snort supports the outbox model. have i been misinformed? if not, how can i turn it on if it's not on by default?

yep. that fixed it. thanks!

nostr:npub1tvqc82mv8cezhax5r34n4muc2c4pgjz8kaye2smj032nngg52clq0rkrq4 likes this rock band called Creed and he's found of another band called Nickelback.

I know it's a meme, but side of a bullet by Nickelback and bullets by creed are bangers.

stuck on this screen. button does nothing. clear cache and hard reload seems to clear everything but then a reload brings this up again.

I can't wait until snort works in my browser again. gonna be lit!

some of the best times I can't remember started with red bull and vodka.
