A long conversation on Bitcoin citadels, military technology, geopolitics, government inefficiencies, CBDCs, and the collapse of the fiat system. https://free-cities.org/rahim-taghizadegan-bitcoin-citadels-geopolitics-cbdcs/
“A dystopia always has a different side: a utopian one. The question is, is it possible to have a Bitcoin utopia while the world is dystopian? So that’s a challenge to Bitcoiners. And I think it’s a great challenge. It challenges you to think about what hyperbitcoinization may mean and what it looks like.”

Readable, but selective account of monetary history with communitarian bias. This "historical" approach to money is always distorted by the fact that "quantitatively" for most of human history and cultures, monetary phenomena were linked to cult-based and tribal social relations, whereas "qualitatively" the smaller subset of catallactic monetary phenomena (cooperation between foreigners) are materially and, eventually, culturally much more important. So, this communitarian bias boils down to Graeber's anarcho-primitivist bias. I appreciate him for being much more straight-forward about it than most history romantics.

On the new client Nostur, I saw for the first time that the profile has field for both a LUD-06 and a LUD-16 address. The first is a regular LNURL, the second an e-mail-like address. Damus converts LUD-16 automatically to LUD-6 when tipping a profile. Zapping posts in Damus is different, and in the public App does not work so far (does not hand over a string to a wallet). Nostur is working.

Yeah, thanks! Are you using Damus Beta in Testflight?

Damus is using a different process for zapping profiles or posts. I assume LNURL is an issue when zapping posts, so I have changed to Lightning address. But on Damus, my profile is not syncing this change.

2023-03-02T22:37:55Z

What I have learned today about NOSTR: Enter Lightening Address in "Edit profile", not Settings (I thought it would be automatically synced between alby and client, it is not). Hard to find "edit profile" - in iris.to three gray dots on profile page, in public Damus app (in contrast to testflight app) I could find no option at all. LNURL may cause issues, it seems to be better to enter a lightning address. Zap data for posts inconsistent in client (or delays).

Yes, it worked again with bluewallet. Zapping myself on Damus.

Thanks. On desktop I use iris, which does not seem to offer a LNURL setting. I'm using LNbits wallet as alby account to log in. On phone Damus. On snort.social I found an LNURL field where I entered one.

Thanks, I thought alby would have done the connection for me.

Let's quote Murray Rothbard to celebrate his birthday: “the absurdities and the unfortunate consequences of fiat paper money would be far more evident if each province or each neighborhood or street block were to print its own currency. A more decentralized world would be far more likely to turn to sound market commodities, such as gold or silver [or Bitcoin], for its money.”
