Cryptographycally signed track records for public transactions could be a thing. Only relative timestamping makes nostr cheap (compared to bitcoin).

We had a vote in #switzerland on Sunday. This is how I check the results: the mobile app „VoteInfo“. What you can always see is the gap between French-speaking parts (west) and German-speaking (center+east). Also interesting is the „Stadt-Land-Gefälle“ (urban/rural).

For the rest you could use nostr as well, but not for consensual timestamping.

Dear Gabe
I watched the HL and HL2 anniversary videos. You said you want to make immersive techwise difficult games: intelligent NPCs, havoc, big walk&drive levels, portals, VR. What’s left to do now?
I’ve got a difficult idea for you:
Adress the passing of time in a multiplayer game.
- How could you have multiplayer bullet-time like in Max Payne
- How could you support fast-forwarding in Patrizier II or Kerbal Space Program?
There must be some useful ideas around like operational transformation or eventual consistency. Make the lag a game feature!

I‘m not sure if tribe is the segregation I want. It should be more about my current mode-of-mind:
Sometimes I brew beer, sometimes I want to discuss about Bitcoin, sometimes about nostr, sometimes about programming, sometimes about politics, sometimes I like to scroll, sometimes I like to know what people in geographic proximity are doing…
But always I want to know what person X is up to, what X thinks about a matter, and explicitly because this person is not in my usual tribe cluster. I like how facebook did it in the early days. It was about people, not content.

That’s exactly what I did with mine. I did all the KYC at Kraken and sent it there and to sell for CHF. Receiving the CHF back onto my bank account took quite a while (a week or so).
I don’t know your legislation. But here in Switzerland BTC is simply treated as foreign currency. So course gains are tax-free (if you’re not a trader by profession).
But beware: it may be very important that the BTC were already in your tax balance sheet for wealth-tax before they are just going to appear in your bank account from nowhere.
