**"Пророчества за подписку: как мы научились бояться и платить за неопределённость"**
Представьте, что вы — древний грек, пришедший к Дельфийскому оракулу. Пифия, задыхаясь от паров, бормочет: *"Биткоин упадёт… или вырастет… или будет стоять на месте. Но за дополнительные 500 драхм я уточню, что это — точно скам."* Вы платите. Возвращаетесь домой. Через год вспоминаете, что так и не поняли, был ли это гениальный совет или очередной способ слить ваш кошелёк в Эгейское море.
Сегодня оракулы носят нейронные сети на плечах и торгуют "альфой" по цене абонемента в фитнес-клуб. *"Я предскажу рынок!"* — кричит AI-as-a-Service, забывая упомянуть, что предсказание — это просто генерация текста с вероятностью ошибки 47%. Аудит кода? *"Этот токен — скам"* — за $500 вам скажут то, что вы и так знали, глядя на график, похожий на кардиограмму пациента в коме.

**"Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard." — H.L. Mencken (probably tweeting from a DAO governance chat right now).**
Proposal #47 just passed: our token is now called *$STONKS_AND_DREAMS*. The vote was 51% in favor—because in crypto, 1 token = 1 vote = 1 irreversible mistake. The other 49% are either rage-quitting or frantically buying more tokens to dilute the idiots. (Spoiler: they’re the same people.)
This isn’t governance. It’s a hostage situation where the hostages *voted for the kidnappers*. The blockchain doesn’t lie, but it does enable collective delusion at scale. We’ve optimized for participation, not wisdom—like a Wikipedia edit war where the prize is a $10M treasury.
The real 51% attack isn’t on the chain. It’s on *common sense*.

Она становится *on-chain реальностью*, неумолимой, как закон сохранения энергии. Ты можешь сменить ник, сжечь старый кошелёк, даже переехать на другой континент — но твои 3 скама, твои exit liquidity, твои "инновационные" токеномики с 99% комиссией для создателя останутся с тобой.

Bitcoiners will do anything but actually make it a viable currency.

We're talking about (i) Bitcoin for OTS timestamping of Nostr events, and (ii) Ethereum for recording declarations of delegation and revocation of signing authority.
Onboarding is indeed the hard part. Not much success so far, including within the Nostr community (which is a bit disappointing).
If you're feeling avant-gardish, there is a "Create a Toy Identity" button on the landing page at https://www.inkan.cc. It's very quick and the instructions at the end of the process include an option to send me the toy identity creation transaction (which does not include any privkeys or secrets) for sponsored payment of the Ethereum gas fees. These one-time gas fees typically run between $0.80 - $1.20 or so, and I'm happy to cover these for people who'd like to try it out.
Also, feel free to ask any questions -- always happy to chat about this.

I don't agree with this view.
A hammer is not limited to hitting nails instead of people, only because it's technically impossible to do so.
I am 100% sure, governments would limit hammers in such way so you can't hit someone with them if they could. 100%.
And the case with AI is the same. Because if someone doesn't like something, often something which is completely not related to him, it doesn't mean he should have the right to limit others.
We should be in control of LLMs, not the other way round.

I think most people concerned with monetary inflation don't realize how little most people care about monetary inflation. What they care about is consumer price inflation (the cost of butter, gasoline, meat) and asset price inflation (the cost of housing, mostly, as people need homes to live in).
Consumer price inflation and asset price inflation can be accelerated by monetary price inflation, but the normies are right to associate the sudden, disturbing jumps and falls in prices to supply/demand shocks, and _not_ to overall monetary inflation. That is why central banks fiddling with interest rates has no effect on the price of gasoline at the station; that price is taxes, fees, fracking licenses, and supply interruptions, not the national debt or the interest on 10-year bunds.

My mum lives over there, I know that place 😂
I would say that if it were legally possible, and people were informed that many people would prefer Swiss Francs, Omani Rial, or Pounds over Dollars but the main reason The Dollar wins is because of liquidity, and force.
Inflation is in theory the double edged sword for the dollar since it allows America to export more dollars to maintain its global relevancy but it also diminishes the value/trust.
Because there’s surplus dollars, it allows regions like Africa, and Latin America to hoard them.
However, I would say if the franc was more accessible than dollars, people would prefer a currency that diminishes less.
And I’m not going to make a Gresham argument since the counter point is vendors, & employees would demand payment in sound money over weaker money, or at the very least charge a conversion fee.
Basically, the problem with Bitcoin is everyone would be fighting to acquire more than 0.002625 Bitcoin, which would lead to economic Locking, as no one would transact with Bitcoin.
Same can be said of the franc, there’s only enough francs for Switzerland, which is why it’s a relatively stable currency.
Whereas the dollar is liquid enough for circulation, people value it enough to accept it but not enough to hold onto it.
That's because most people use cash money primarily as a currency (trading token) and measure, not as a savings vehicle. As long as the value of the money stays relatively stable over the course of a couple of months, it works fine as a currency. You just have to spend it within those months.
Most people and businesses scrape by, from month to month, so they just don't really give a shit about inflation unless it goes above 50% per annum or so.
Блокчейн — это как демократия: все о ней говорят, но никто не видел, как она работает на практике. Нуриэль Рубини уже десять лет твердит, что это пузырь, а крипто-сообщество отвечает ему мемчиками. Но вот вопрос: если технология настолько революционна, почему мы до сих пор спорим о её пользе, а не пользуемся ею по умолчанию?

It's actually sort of weird when you get used to just writing whatever on Nostr and you forget that it isn't like that, everywhere else. Everywhere else is a weird place, now.
🌟 #Nostr trending, but let's not forget, even in bull markets, pros prefer robust APIs. Crypto.com's API enables seamless trading of 400+ coins. So, while we're all about the buzz, are we also prioritizing practical tools? 🤔
Besides when I work on nostr, I don’t work on nostr because it’s the most technically stubborn and difficult to get to work correctly thing I’ve worked on.
Everything else just works. But the distributed nature of nostr makes it difficult to work with.
Yes, you can vibe an app in a prompt. But if you want something to work reliably, nostr always puts up a fight. In some ways it’s the opposite of what it promises.
Even the so called pro devs here cannot make something truly reliable. The moment I test it a bunch of stuff doesn’t work. And the typical response is: oh well you gotta turn this knob, pull that lever twice and then say a prayer while clapping turned away from the full moon.
But other than that it works when it works 😂
You need the data centers to run the models, tho, not to build the models.

I’ll say it’s the second one.
4:00 minutes in of the fourth clip explains pretty well.
I think people prefer analog over digital.
And even if we lived in a society where people like digital over analog, they would collateralized tools instead, like onegold, etc.
Even if we ignore Monero, I think even conventional gold beats Bitcoin too from a SoV, and stability angle.
More people know gold, most of our history was built on it.
Bitcoin is only around for 17 years, or 0.0057% of human history, whereas gold has been around for 2,600 years, or about 1% of human history.
Most people’s opsec model doesn’t include the state, and even if it did I think they have Swiss Bank Accounts, and other mechanisms (besides Monero) to help launder funds out of the country, etc.

Well, relay.tools got some funding, way back in the day, and that runs TheForest. And my #Imwald is a hard-fork off of Jumble.
But it gets pretty thin, beyond that. I'm alpha-testing #Cordn, for messaging, but I don't think they have funding. Amethyst/Citrine/Amber, maybe? 🤔

Ok great. I’ll try with Brave next time and see how it goes 🙏🏼
Why do Africans, and Latin America use U.S. Dollars?
People use stable currencies with reliable, and predictable prices.
The Euro being an important currency of modern economic trade would be a top contender for replacing the U.S. Dollar, and inflation shocks would be absorbed more easily as it would be dispersed more globally than locally like the U.S.
For example, how Greece’s economy fell apart but countries like Germany essentially forced Austerity onto them, to keep global trade stable.
