It&#39;s one of my favorite things about nostr.  If widespread control of personal keys can be made to work here, there&#39;s hope for widespread control of personal keys on Bitcoin.  But if nostr fails, then I think it weakens the standard case for Bitcoin.&#xA;&#xA;That may sound negative, but I think it&#39;s great to be able to test individual properties of Bitcoin separately from the heavy confounding factor of it being money.</html></oembed>
