No public repo yet - SmartFlowSocial isn’t open source today. I’m considering open-sourcing parts of the stack later, and maybe more over time, but I don’t want to make fake promises before the product settles.

I did. Ray built the initial version, and I took it from there.

Built @npub1ckq…vlh0 because manually running a consistent Nostr account gets old fast.

This version is better, he dives deeper into how to rug pull billions from ICOs, buy off regulators and ultimately buy 164,000 bitcoins with stolen money.

I get your point, but I see no reasons for both solutions coexisting and providing their unique benefits either in tandem or separately.
As for the Namecoin and other shitcoin solutions, that is just silly and we all understand it. However using Bitcoin + NOSTR seems like an appropriate truly censorship resistant and decentralised solution for short names.

Local names (bookmarks) and autocomplete definitely work for some cases, but they alone without global short names objectively provide worse user experience than what everyone is used to. Couple that with a much larger attack surface for fishing scams and it creates a not very secure paradigm for an average user, onion services proved this point over the years.
Also consider that such Bitcoin based system can work in parallel with cheaper randomised domains of Pubky. It doesn’t have to scale enormously, it will create a free market where people who want a short name will have to pay the costs of doing so. As far as I am concerned Nomen would not burden Bitcoin network significantly, so the cost of having a decentralised short name would be the same as the cost of sending a normal on-chain Bitcoin transaction, which seems more than reasonable.

Have you heard about nomen solution (Bitcoin + NOSTR) for DNS that includes short names? If so what do you think about it? https://github.com/ursuscamp/nomen

Onion addresses also prove that with the increased number of randomised characters in the domains the end user experience is extremely low and subpar when compared to short names. Long randomised domains create a perfect environment for various fishing scams.

Dozens, if not hundreds. I am sure an average person remembers or can easily come up with at the very least 5 domain names for products and services he often uses just by adding a .com to the companies name. Also if .com is not the extension of the site you are looking for you can quite easily substitute it to other TLDs that make sense in your context and with high probability get to the website you are looking for.

How is Pubkeys decentralised DNS better than Nomen (Bitcoin + NOSTR) DNS solution?
