Bitcoin on Primal is NOT censorship-resistant Efrat.
They are using Spark which is confiscatable, but they are being duplicitous in their messaging around this.

You might want to use another Nostr client. Primal is trying to subvert bitcoin by forcing a protocol called Spark on its users. It's confiscatable bitcoin but they're misrepresenting it to users.

You can keep repeating that but #Spark does NOT have unilateral exit. Governments or government agencies or operator can freeze Spark funds until KYC is provided.

Good article. Reticilim & Pubky as a backbone. Meshcore is only suitable as a last mile [last leg] right now, but that can easily be 20Km with good atmospherics and line of sight. All three are Ed25519. Nowdays you really need multiband protocols and negotiation.
Regarding meshcore, the real opportunity is multiplex transcieving. That'd provide exponential capacity for a given band and would be akin to open source 4G/5G. Not sure whether ESP32 can handle the mux though.
#FIPS is DOA and arises from Acadamia Everything Has To Be Ecash And Nostr. An infra of translation bridges is a waste of clock. I imagine the engineers will finally smell the Ed25519 coffee soon - good guys but have some erroneous preinstalled prior.

Hoi hoi Ralphie - he's actively involved in supporting the successor to Nostr.
It's called #Pubky but is's not backwards compatible with Nostr.
It swaps-out the centralised relay model for Kademlia (mathematically perfect mesh)... and scp256k1 for Ed26519 which delivers a significant speed advantage at scale. Much simpler on a protocol level and is PWA-first to escape walled gardens.

I've been doing that with my shitcoin bros for a couple of years. Liquid for apps that might require a critical emergency shutdown by functionaries, and rootstock for ones that don't. Although I guess rootstock dappas are to slow for terminator2 apocalypse type issues.

2026-04-30 08:10:15 UTC

Lots to unpack there...
You can think of #Pubky as Nostr 2.0 if that makes you happy... just without compatibility.
Fundamentally: Mesh (augmented by Kademlia) is more decentralised than relays, and Ed25519 is faster than secp256k1... these are facts predicated in mathematics and are therefore absolute truths.
From an architectural standpoint, Nostr is starting to feel like Windows ME; no amount of new NIPS or protocol contortion (i.e. shoving something already broken into different transport layers) is going to improve it. Pubky's Ed25519 already uses the same key scheme as Reticulum, Meshtashtic, Meshcore. FIPS isn't going to work.
Nostr simultaneously has major problems with DM's, protocol architecture, and relay centralisation.
Pubky is simpler and more elegant and therefore easier to build on. The apps, UI, documentation etc. will follow.
I assume the Pubky Ring privacy policy etc. needs to exist to get it on the main app stores. No different to nostr clients. There is nothing to stop anyone forking any part of the Pubky project afaik. I agree that some non-synonym Pubky apps would be very welcome; there is certainly a perception issue at the moment. @nprofile…uazd should fund some... simply because it's better tech.

If I'm not mistaken, Pubky 'Locks' should facilitate the ability for homeservers to granularly permission directories/subdirectories based on other pubkys. This could be one way of facilitating push.

Acid reflux is mainly due to irritated esophagus, and is initiated when stomach acid flows back in the wrong direction. In my experience, it generally happened when laying down shortly after eating (I mistakenly did this when trying to meet daily calorie/protein targets). The supplement TUDCA helps a lot, since it accelerates digestion.
PS. I got ur DM's but - no surprise - nostr won't let me reply, even though I haven't changed any settings.

Caging the transmitter [or receiver] in an extremely thick case of thick lead is tantamount to an atmospheric condition, albeit ex-extremis. There would effectively be zero measurable signal.
In a superhetrodyne receiver (I.e. commercial FM radio), the point at which there is no signal is the point at which the IF Filter (Intermediate Frequency) can't squelch any signal from noise. Your oscilloscope would then show no meaningful signal at the IF Amp and the Demodulator stages.
A listener to a radio receiver / transciever hears the signal fading in and out when it is marginal to IF Filter sensitivity. This can be due to atmospherics or noise (i.e. perhaps a train engine on an electrified rail somewhere inbetween nodes). However, if the signal is significantly below the IF Amp sensitive threshold (even after pre-amping) then you won't hear diddly squat... well, apart from static.

2026-04-18 15:08:58 UTC

I agree with most of this.
But tropospheric ducting also applies.
And of course signal attenuation due to ambient atmospherics particulates.
Also, I'm not sure whether modulation scheme has any bearing on bendyness; I thought only wavelength and ducting.
I think my point is that RF wave propagation is a suboptimal way to prove or disprove flat earth, due to an overabundance of confounders.

Radio signals dissipate per inverse square law, and due to limited permeability & permittivity of free space.
Also, radio signals can and often do bend through free space.
Signal in Oahu can't be heard in LA because the signal-noise ratio is insufficient for the receiving equipment to be able to filter.

Nostr's architecture was suboptimal and I think it's now too difficult to fix.

The redundancy and censorship resistance is augmented by PKARR. (Public Key Addressable Resource Records).
