I’m a fan of the Bitaxe movement. Things like Bitaxe solo block wins should be retweeted and spread far and wide. It’s like a global lottery available to anyone with electricity and ~$150. Every participant makes hash more decentralized and impossible to choke.

potentially stupid nostr question: when a nostr user initially logs into an app with just their nsec key (no nip-05), how does the app know the initial relay to fetch the profile info and relay list from? Are most apps just querying lots of known relays and hoping for a match?

If you login with nostr, we were automatically setting accounts to use “webln” for payments. I’m guessing that happened for you, but you don’t actually have a webln supported extension like Alby? You can go into account settings and disable webln to resolve it. for what it’s worth i’ve stopped doing this, so shouldn’t be a problem for others in the future.

GPT4 summarizing the doctrine of “Stay Humble and Stack Sats” with 10 core principles:
1. Educate Yourself: Understand what Bitcoin is and why it's valuable. Continuous learning is key.
2. Stack Sats: Regularly acquire Satoshis regardless of the Bitcoin price. This can be through purchasing or earning.
3. Stay Humble: Avoid getting carried away by temporary highs and lows in the Bitcoin market.
4. Save More Than You Spend: Aim to live within your means and save a portion of your earnings in Bitcoin.
5. Be Patient: Recognize that significant wealth accumulation takes time. Don't expect to get rich quick.
6. Embrace Volatility: Bitcoin's price can fluctuate wildly. Accept this as part of the journey.
7. Use a Cold Wallet: Store your Bitcoin in a secure, offline wallet to protect against theft.
8. Avoid Debt: Try not to borrow money to invest in Bitcoin. Over-leveraging can lead to financial stress and risk.
9. Think Long Term: Bitcoin is often viewed as a long-term investment, so resist the urge to make short-term, speculative trades.
10. Be Your Own Bank: Embrace the ethos of Bitcoin by taking control of your own financial destiny. Do not rely on third parties for storing or managing your Bitcoin. https://nostr.build/i/cd3a0be5a39e1841831a550974832d64823896d0dea005bb8a601bb12a95987d.gif

you monetize by selling channel liquidity not by per transaction fees

2023-04-28 02:00:19 GMT

it’s still so early. soon there will be custom relays that keep a history of all of your events and re-blast them to other relays as needed. doesn’t matter if lots of users use the same ones if you can easily point at another one and things mostly just work. nostr is simple and stuff like this is relatively easy.

btw: we’re working on completely mirroring Vida rooms over nostr as Nostr public chat rooms (nip-28). the stream location will be embedded as meta data on the room. i’m also working on a simplified open source media server that’s designed to be run along side a nostr relay so others can host rooms and there’s no platform lock-in.
