I started my lightning journey with Wallet of Satoshi, before I even knew Lightning was a thing (it was the only wallet THNDR games supported at the time), I even thought it was a scam or some CEX bullshit at first.
The fact that WoW still looks like an Android 2.3 app to this day probably doesn’t help.
Fast forward a few years, I see Primal has this builtin wallet with actual seed phrase “oh, self custody, nice”.
Then I find out the lightspark drama.
Now I’m under decision paralysis between picking Phoenix or Zeus for a true Lightning experience. There are so many details hiding devils that I feel like I’m in hell already.
And like fuck, my last job included embedded development with Erlang and I had an easier time navigating that. How is the average person supposed to survive this?

In Brazil, I guess ever since the Real was implemented, you can’t refuse to accept their colored paper when selling goods or services. I think it was to crack down on people using dollar to protect themselves from hyperinflation.

Some countries make it “illegal” to not accept their Monopoly money as payment. And I’m sure the ones that currently don’t would follow suit as soon as Bitcoin adoption rises.
In Brazil merchants often give discounts for Pix payments because they don’t have to pay PoS, Mastercard etc. a cut of the transaction. This seems to be working to drive pix adoption, I guess Bitcoin merchants should consider giving BTC discounts/price fiat higher.

Speaking of eth… @npub1jvx…7yqz probably would ask why *bit*social isn’t using bitcoin rootstock or something instead of etherum.
Also, changing where the domain points would wipe/ignore the previous community whole history and restart from zero, right?
Regardless, I’m still not sold on the single point of failure RPC thing being the core of a so called p2p network.
In torrent you can announce to multiple trackers, in nostr you can push to multiple relays (or broadcast over Bluetooth, or save events into a json file and broadcast them later and possibly more ways to come)…
What if you pushed the multisig idea into the RPC layer? Like have multiple geographically distributed nodes and require like x of n signatures, idk…
The world is retarded, Spain blocks cloudflare IPs nationwide whenever there’s a soccer game going to “prevent pirated streams”.

I don’t think it can be solved without some deep changes. Right now it looks like the community owner is the choke point.
One possible workaround, maybe, instead of requiring the signature of the community owner for every post from every identity you only do so until a certain karma is reached, so only new users would be prevented from posting if the network gets severed. Still annoying, but less annoying I suppose.

TBH I don’t think it makes a drop of sense to have relay restricted groups, this is not XMPP.
But bootstrapping a WoT DNS system without ICANN is not impossible, especially if you decide to reuse the social graph of nostr or something.
To a certain degree this is the naming model we’re running with, if another npub pops up claiming to be Derek Ross some clients show a red badge saying “possible impostor”.
Another pro I see with this is that it puts more pressure into having a reputable name (assuming UI follows), making scam urls that look legitimate but lack reputation should be harder (in theory).
Yeah I’m not totally against this.
