You don't adjust currency pairs for inflation

Nostr isn't a blockchain...

This would make for a very interesting nostr use case.

As long as the ruling class thinks your speech is responsible, then speak away!

That comparison makes zero sense. The police are a way for us to delegate our self-defense to a third party, the state. We give the police a certain level of authority in return fo…

This protocol gives me so much hope

Lightning network did it better

The twitter app literally has the same tipping over bitcoin/lightning functionality built in. Also there is zero way to paywall content (or anything) within the Damus app. Literall…

I made characteristic claims about a solution I see fit for the OP problem statement. When he asked if I was talking about ETH, I told them I wasn't. You're hijacking a thread to p…

Not Ethereum. Ethereum has a lot of massive problems. Not 'crypto' which is by and large a scam. I'm talking about Bitcoin with The Lightning Network. Most payments I make over Lig…

If only there was an instantaneous, nearly free (cost per transaction), opensource, anyone-can-access, infinitely scalable, infinitely interoperable, payment rail that we could sta…

ummmm, have you seen our criminal justice system?

Nope. Merely pointing out that the transfer of wealth from fleeced retail to founders/insiders can hardly be summed up by 1 promotional transaction. This was a project and promotio…
