There’s really nothing to argue about - let’s embrace sound money and a genuinely free market and spontaneous orders will give us the answer. We can speculate all we want, but the order that gives the most amount of people the most value is the one that will emerge when money can’t be corrupted. That’s the entire point

@npub1sg6…f63m Hey Jack and everyone!—I was truly inspired by these words earlier today so I wrote this article on Medium, referencing your note. Let’s get Nostr to the people! Feel free to share! ✊🌎

I think that’s just to delete them

In the future, when Bitcoin layer 1 fees become too expensive for the average person and are only financially justifiable for large companies and banks, am I correct in my understanding that newcomers will still be able to open a wallet and receive and transfer funds directly on the Lightning Network (layer 2) without ever needing to settle or fund a layer 1 wallet?
That’s how it scales without necessarily involving counterparty risk, right?

I did it like 10 minutes before I wrote the last comment — I think it just started working around that time!

Got a notification just now that you followed me! Did you do that right now or 5 minutes ago?

2024-08-20 13:28:48

- reply

It’s working now!! 🤗 I added all the relays back on that was default in Iris. I’m not sure—but I may have too quick to go to a new page once clicking “follow” so that the client didn’t have time to confirm the request or something. Can that be it?

2024-08-20 13:13:50

- reply

Okay, got it! But it shouldn't be required to see my follows, right?

2024-08-20 13:07:13

Which client are you using? Same result for Primal, Damus and Iris—doesn’t seem to be the client?

Did that just now — didn’t solve it unfortunately!

2024-08-20 12:55:21

You mean it’s just “loading”? I do have some followers but I can’t see whom I am following myself

2024-08-20 12:54:31

- reply

Ok! Is it like an account problem or an issue for everyone that will eventually get fixed? Are my follows lost or there in the background?

2024-08-20 12:48:25

I’m using these the following relays but still can’t see my follows (people I have followed). My profile says zero.
Can anyone assist?

Thank you — I looked into this, now I understand better how it works! I can basically create my own private + public key without ever exposing my private key on a computer unless I want to send something, right?

2024-08-20 12:43:55

- reply

Thank you for the reply! I’m using these ones currently — two out of three out of those you mentioned. Still not seeing my follows though!
Can’t figure out why!

Wait, how do you mean? Is that possible?

2024-08-19 22:14:15

Is there anyone with technical expertise who can explain just how difficult it truly is to hack a hardware wallet?
How can I be confident that my private key is never exposed, beyond simply trusting the claims of the company that manufactures the wallet?

I’m able to view my relays under settings; I can delete and add new ones but not sure which one’s I ought to have? My posts and followers list appear to update on all apps perfectly but not my follows

2024-08-19 15:09:51

I’m using the default relays as set up when logged in. On top of that, I added the top 3 relays from nostr.watch earlier today.

I’m using Primal and Damus—can’t seem to find any button to follow myself 🤔

2024-08-19 12:37:42

I’m new to Nostr and can’t see my follows. Been following accounts for last 2 days—but profile still says zero.
Added top 3 relays from nostr.watch 45 minutes ago per advice—but still nothing. Using multiple apps.
How do I fix this?

Please comment your best Nostr 101 and onboarding videos—long and short!
Looking for short and concise video that explains the WHY without being too technical, as well as longer more detailed onboarding guide that explains HOW! 🌎🌍🌏🙏 Let’s get this off the ground!

Okay got it! I’ve been following accounts for the past 2 days — probably like 20 or 30 in total but none has popped up yet in my profile. I guess I’ll just need to wait and see then!

2024-08-19 12:00:48

- reply

However, still not seeing who I’m following. Do I need to follow myself somehow?

2024-08-19 11:55:13

I added the top 3 relays now from the website.

Thank you! I will check it out right now!

2024-08-19 11:34:43

- reply

Thank you! Okay — so with fewer relays (such as default) does that just mean it will take longer to update my followers?

2024-08-19 11:30:16

- reply

Okay, how do I follow myself?

2024-08-19 10:50:27

Thank you for response! Mind if I ask how I do that?

Hmm okay! I’m not a programmer unfortunately—I’ve already been engaging on this key for a while now so I’d prefer not to start over. I did my profile through Iris. What do you mean with clients in this context? Apps?

2024-08-19 10:37:49

New to Nostr—is it advisable to add more relays than default for a better experience? If yes, how do I figure out which ones? 🌎
Additionally, my profile page says I’m following 0 people despite following many last 2 days—am I doing something wrong? 🤔

Hello from Stockholm—new to Nostr! 🌏🌍🌎
I’m a screenwriter who took a detour into economics after the industry strikes in 2023 set me on a path to explore a growing unease that something wasn’t right in the world I live in. My curiosity led me to dig into how things really work, moving from dabbling in investments to uncovering just how broken our economic system truly is.
The light bulb moment came when I realized that sound money provided me with a framework to begin articulating the answers to many of the questions I had been trying to express through my storytelling. It was one of the most powerful moments of my life.
Now, I’m all about pushing for a future where our economy and social interactions are grounded on solid, decentralised foundations. Excited to connect with others who feel the same! 💡🌱🌎

Trump does not understand the single most fundamental aspect of a free market, sound money or Bitcoin. He thinks it’s an about “winning”, which is a finite game and exactly what fiat is about.

4/ However, while many at the forefront of the climate change movement are correctly identifying the symptoms and desperately pushing politicians to do more, many are also falling short of diagnosing the root cause accurately — or maybe they have just become so entrenched in the current system that they cannot see it can be reinvented.

3/ Those at the forefront of the green movement are instinctively correct. They are making the right choice in fighting back against forces that seek our destruction. They rightly sense that something is fundamentally wrong with how we live our lives and the behaviours that are rewarded…

2/ Those who argue otherwise are presenting a straw man argument. For instance, it is an undeniable fact that Earth will be hit by another asteroid in the future. We just don't know when, where, or how severe it will be. Similarly, those who claim the science on climate change is “unsettled” are debating the specifics of "when, where, and how severe," which indeed can vary.
However, it is settled that climate change will have disastrous consequences to the world in one way or another unless action is taken.
The even more ridiculous claim that climate scientists — as if they were one and the same — have “conspired” to downplay uncertainty and exaggerate risk, are apparently unaware of the fact that increased uncertainty equates to increased risk. So, they effectively have a defeater for their own argument.

Climate change is real and it’s caused by the unsustainable living practices that FIAT forces upon each and every one of us!🧵…
