@npub12vk…pugg when post notifications?
I use X notifications from the accounts I value the most as its own separate feed. Being able to turn on post notifications from certain Nostr accounts would have me using Nostr much more often.

Anyone else think BTC miner stocks are incredibly oversold right now? Marathon doing so well they only sold 56% of their mined Bitcoin to cover expenses. They anticipate their hashrate to grow 30% in 2024. They're dominating other mining companies to basically have a small monopoly on hard money printing. They're down ~55% relative to Bitcoin🤯

Does anyone know any Bitcoiners on TikTok? Looking to give some normies I know some people to follow so I stop getting cringe crypto account's posts sent to me asking my thoughts.

2024-01-25 21:07:10

Was just thinking about this... what is the plan for when an event happens (i.e. Twitter begins censoring again)? How are we going to onboard normies tos platform where Bitcoin is by far the most discussed topic? We don't have an algorithm where users can curate their feeds to their interests.

I want to start this as well but I typically work out in the mornings. Feel like these fasting times don't work with his because not eating protein for 5-6 hours after working out doesn't seem productive. Do you have any recommendations for what to do to work fasting into my schedule?

Described Nostr to chat GPT today. It seemed to understand Nostr and its improvements over traditional social media and protocols quite well.
Also gave me some good insight into building some app ideas I have that would utilize the Nostr protocol. It even gave me a few ideas on other potential app ideas/use cases for Nostr

Agreed fully. Only question I have is, in response to this screenshot... In the situation were Bitcoin has obtained nearly all monetary value in the world (can no longer rely on future growth in price to incentivize miners) , would the fees have to increase so much that the main chain would be unusable by the average person?

2023-03-08 17:37:58

App Ideas Built using Nostr Protocol
1. Video streaming service provider
- similar to Youtube
- Pay-Per-Video streamed model (or something like it)
2. Stack overflow type website
- post coding bugs or challenges
- place bounties in sats
- community can tip valuable posts
3. Tutor Service
- students can easily pay for: tutoring sessions, homework questions, could even host your own courses or tailored learning
- straight V4V

I can hardly focus on my fiat mining job anymore. I've become obsessed with learning about Bitcoin/Lightning/Nostr. I've been taking every cryptography and bitcoin course I can find online.

No historical basis to go off of. The industries around the internet moved fast and provided immediate conveniences to the public while the companies made big money fast. Little thought went into the effects of how it was built. imo

This course on the ins-and-outs of the Bitcoin protocol is incredible. Very easy to understand and very well organized. I've been in Bitcoin over two years and thought I understood it well but I'm gaining a whole new level of understanding only 2 sections in.
Would highly recommend to anyone!

I'm able to zap anyone using Phoenix wallet (non-custodial and I hold my own keys). Yes, there isn't a non-custodial wallet I know of directly integrated to receive zaps but its not like you need to keep any remotely significant amount on that wallet.
The main thing is, Bitcoin's base protocol is incorruptible and there are still non-custodial options to meet our needs.

I looked into this and LNCal.com is just the calendar you book a session with and the mechanism for payment for that session.
To use it you would have to provide someone with a link yourself before they could schedule a season.

For sure! I guess I didn’t know what Gossip was. I think there are definitely many more applications for the Nostr protocol than just a Twitter-like client.
