Having no barrier to entry on an open source "uncensored" websocket protocol was kind of asking for trouble.
SMTP has had about 45 years to mature and it is worse than ever.

This has been the issue with Lighting since day one.
There is really no way of doing it properly without committing to 500K to 1000000 sat channels and even the you are at the mercy of so many variables.
Force closes are a massive headache. You can say it is a "skill issue" but I found running a lightning node to be very costly, a huge amount of babysitting, and it just is not yet ready for the average person.
There are some who think that the layer 2 is a shit coin, and they have a point. At the end of the day it is not truly decentralised and has multiple points of failure.

Sadly I lost my bitcoin keys in a boating accident. Real tragedy because they would have survived a fire.
On the other hand, my nsec just is not that important to me, wouldn't mind it not surviving a house fire, but it would.

Bitcoin personalities are extremely terrifying. It is no wonder Satoshi remained anonymous. I suspect that he saw this all coming.

Your point is valid but think a lot of people know this.
35% of the current global population were around for the invention of the internet. As an inventor of math, you probably know that many of the people who where alive at that time are now dead.
So we are talking about 5 billion people who saw the internet, and used it, and have a pretty good idea where it came from.
I get your point but, saying "few people" is a bit wild. It took way more that a few people to get where we are now, and literally billions of people remember what it was.

The reason people get scammed so easily:

2024-08-28 02:37:28

- reply

I have literally seen people scammed out of their family inheritance, their home and rent, or their next grocery shop through bitcoin.
There are ways to avoid this:
1) You can never ever be too careful about the "handle" or "screen name" you are talking too. Many platforms allow them to be aped easily. Including domain names. Sometimes it can be an additional character that isn't easy to spot. Other times it can be an "i" in place of an "l"
It really can be that simple to take everything you have
2) Generally speaking you aren't going to have an "@" or an "npub" offer you something that is too good to be true. Correct me if I am wrong @npub1a2c…w83a but you aren't likely asking people to send you bitcoin for no definable reason with a promise of return? You aren't soliciting your skills randomly. This should be obvious but it isn't. If anyone is contacted in a manner like this the first reaction should be to have them contact you directly. Ask for a phone call, or a video call, if it is that important. It will buy time to investigate the nature of the request.
3) No one. No one ever will ask for personal information. This one is huge. Very important. Don't volunteer this kind of thing. Not ever. Your fiat bank will never ask for this. They will ask security questions. But your bank will never ask you to send money to unlock money. I can't stress this enough. If anyone asks for your password, or your nsec, or your bitcoin keys, the answer is "no"

2024-08-28 01:13:52

Generally speaking it is not difficult at all if you use a bitcoin seller who accepts wire transfers.
It really depends on how much you consider "a lot" but in most cases banks wont ask too many questions about anything less than 50K
I worked for a prominent bitcoin company and we routinely processed wires anywhere from 50K to 100K or more for buying bitcoin.
Granted there may be some questions involved.
Proof of income being the main one. Your bank may block it too if you have a shady past. Generally speaking, if you already have that kind of money, they wont think twice about it, unless they have reason to believe it is not legit.
In a nutshell: Find an "exchange" that excepts wire transfers, and buy as much as you want. That is exactly what Michael Saylor does. It is the best way for large amounts.

They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing opinions. They’re bringing shitcoins. They’re no coiners. And some, I assume, are good people.

I am nothing of an expert but I have done a great deal of distro hopping and have come to learn that at the end of the day they really aren't all that different. I think a lot of it comes down to familiarity and how much you like to tinker.
My personal experience with Fedora was not a great one because SELinux gave me grief, but I am fully willing to admit it is likely user error because I am a dumb dumb. Rather than trying to understand it or learn it or fix it, I bailed.
I used Arch for many years. Reports of instability and difficulty are wildly exaggerated. It is my preferred Linux experience for command line only situations like personal servers especially.
The AUR is a very powerful resource.
I purchased a System76 machine last year, and have been daily driving PopOS ever since. It just works. I have never been a huge fan of Gnome, especially the Ubuntu brand of it, but I don't know. I just used Pop and haven't looked back.
All that being said, Pop is working on their own DE built from the ground up, so it remains to be seen if Pop will continue to be good, but it looks promising. At the end of the day, it is Linux. If you don't like your DE use a different one. Don't let anyone tell you how to live your life.

Well you aren't really giving Alby to your clients. You allow Alby to sign the events "offline" and then it sends the signed event to the client so your key is never directly exposed to the client. You can have Alby "forget" which clients you want it to sign for.
nos2x might be a better solution for you, if you really want to be extra super careful. I think you can even use coldcard and seedsigner hardware wallets if you want to go full tinfoil hat.
(note: I think I might incorrect in my previous post. I don't think Alby has any access to your nsec private key and it is only stored in your personal browser. I will need to double check, or maybe someone can correct me)

2023-03-06 23:22:00

- reply

Do you mean Nostr keys, or Bitcoin keys?
As far as lightning you can use it with your own custodial lightning node with alby and it is open source, so it can be relatively "trustworthy"
If you use lightning but don't run your own lightning node you will always be trusting someone else.
If you mean your Nostr key, yes if I am not mistaken , I believe you are trusting them to store your key on their servers but it is one point of vulnerability as opposed to entering your key into every client all over the place you store it in one place. The community and myself have a reasonable amount of trust in Alby and I don't care that much of my Nostr gets comprised it isn't the end of my world.
If you need something more trustless than that you could check out https://github.com/fiatjaf/nos2x
This will store your Nostr key only on your own device.

I totally see your point, and yes the risk or "temptation" to accidentally fall down a shitcoin rabbit hole is something we should be mindful of but it shouldn't stifle progress.
You can make an obtuse argument that zapping over nostr is a third layer of shitcoining and not truly "Bitcoin"
I think if badges can serve some kind of legitimate utility beyond a digital beanie baby it is at least worth the consideration and experimentation, keeping in mind nostr is actually a protocol completely independent of Bitcoin. It's not even a blockchain. I think we are going to see a lot of unique ways to monotize things over nostr likely many of which haven't even been considered yet.
I am good with keeping it cute. I am not advocating badges being anything more than a sticker.
I am just wondering what the possibilities are, and if it is possible someone is probably going to try it whether we like it or not.

How would you feel about people paying/charging for a temporary badge?
Say for example it served as a pass to an event (a ticket or pass)?
Or something like that. What if they could serve a real world purpose as opposed to a monke jpeg?
