Going to be on a panel at Cheatcode with a Nostr focus

What was the main reason you decided to start using it?

#asknostr

(If I answer myself, it's the idea of not being censored, ie a content creator cannot be de-platformed... GAMEchanger)

Just purchased the NIP 05 jake@nostr.com

Love paying for products and services in Bitcoin

It's just so simple

QR code and bang

Job done

Really makes one consider that legacy payment is just so f*cked in comparison

Login (or likely create new account with KYC etc)

Input payment details

Then they don't work

So you do it again....

Etc!

The opportunity first appeared in January, it's now October, so a good 9 months of trying

Best efforts put in by all

A few reasons come to mind, but I'll keep them to myself for now

But all parted ways very amicably with the potential to collaborate in the future

Sending all the best Andrew! Thank you

Reminds me from Bali: "we're all so lucky"

Still so true today

(Ps - have purchased your book, good prompt to actually get into it!)

Things haven't worked out co-founding Bitcoin Mentor Australia

So as of last week we went our seperate ways

I wish the very best of luck to the team that I've left behind

A really awesome group of people

🙏

What is the best desktop client for Nostr?

For a one off coffee sure. It doesn’t matter at all

But I am confused. Whilst I agree that owning literally anything else as well as Bitcoin, means to some degree you could be longer Bitcoin, a house, a car, gold, could all be sold for more btc

But to say the opportunity cost of using only bitcoin, instead of a less volatile asset (in purchasing power) short term eg eur, usd, aud, gbp, is exactly the same… how do you calc that?

From where I am sitting its not even possible to know what the opportunity cost is, given the unknown trajectory of Bitcoin, let alone say it’s the same

A feature that would be potentially helpful

Make it easy to Auto post across to legacy platforms

Ie you can focus on Nostr first for your content creation

But once you’ve made it, it might make sense to spread that message far and wide

Would save hours to uploading / loading / commenting etc on legacy platforms

(Saying all that, going all in Nostr and never giving Zuck or Musk a second of my attention again also feels great, so maybe this is a bad idea)

Lesson from this year: lawyers like telling you what you can’t do, not what you can

Offer you want to build, just do it

I would use it. Chatter about a substack competitor lately. Would use that too

Who can build please? 🙏🏻

Walking on a sunny beach to start your day is off the charts good vibes
