I want to #zap you 2,100 Sats!
Good morning #nostr! It has been about a month since I joined and I'm loving "Self-Soverign Social".
My challenge has been connecting with like minded folks, which is surprising because if we are both here on nostr we likley share at least an interest in decentralization and #bitcoin.
So I want to try a little experiment this morning. I have just under 500,000 sats or about $350 in my nostr:npub1flm9yc3vhc3dj036pn3ysl5xwd4f5gyhyjnn9rzehs5mqe9y9ynq6qrg9q account, I want you to help me empty it!
Please follow me (if you are not already) and share this post and I'll zap you 2,100 sats until I run out or have to leave the office. It's about 8:45AM EDT, and I'll be zappin' until at least 3PM (or until I'm broke).
In theory this should yield about 235 paid engaugements, which will hopefully amplify my presance here and help me connect with some like minded folks.
Lets see how it works out, I'll share my results!
Done ✅ Nice to meet you nostr:npub1rstsx47hpm9cpty8kuvyq3a00w474d0ren0wepqp0dq2u0xlsyaq585w0e
I am very intrigued by Bitcoin. It has all the signs. Paradigm shift, hackers love it, yet it is described as a toy. Just like microcomputers.

Bitcoin is a way out of our current system, which is exclusionary and unjust, and tends to prey on the weak and disenfranchised while letting the corrupt Davos crowd walk free.

Bitcoin is a once in a thousand year monetary innovation and it's too late to ignore that fact.

There is no link between the informational realm and the physical realm. Proof of work is the only thing that creates this link in a probabilistic fashion, because it creates information that speaks for itself.
