Last Notes
> You must be new here, so try and catch up.
Okay. Here’s a major publication describing my presence at the Bitcoin Center in NYC, with Vitalik, in June of 2014:
https://newrepublic.com/article/121089/how-small-bitcoin-miners-lose-crypto-currency-boom-bust-cycle
> Last June I went to the Bitcoin Center to hear a speech by Vitalik Buterin, a 20-year-old Russian-Canadian tech-prodigy. In one corner of the room that night, the notorious hacker-troll Weev, recently released from prison, was tinkering on a laptop. “Living off my bitcoins,” he told me, when I asked what he was up to.
So if you aren’t familiar with my story, or the timing of my life, I had just got out of prison. And when I got out I had my own self-custodial wallets waiting for me, 0% fiat, enough to be in semi-retirement. Just to give you a signal of how ridiculous your “new here” assertion might be.
> Without Luke its doubtful Bitcoin would exist,
LOL
> Luke is "incompetent kook"?
Yes. Luke got completely owned and lost all his coin and has been caremad ever since. Not learning a single lesson from being completely owned, he subsequently hosted the Knots project on a box he already knew had been hacked, which he had never rebuilt or reimaged. For something as serious as Bitcoin, you don’t even want to keep a machine that has been owned physically present. Because a million nasty things can be stuck in places that are hard to clean, like BIOS firmware. Any critical infrastructure if you have serious crypto is basic. Box gets owned? You build a brand new box *from scratch* and sell the old one on eBay.
I’m sorry, Luke is not a serious person and it is knot a serious project.

The economy is literally just consumer sentiment, and the consumers haven’t been feeling sentimental at all since Covid.
Interest rates, money supply, ratios, forget all that nerd shit, the economy is literally just vibes.

Wow that’s right on the nose “we don’t need to give you a reason”. Like wtf, at least before they tried pretending they are not the gangsters holding your money hostage. At least with real gangsters you know what to expect and act accordingly.
I guess it’s time to make the transition to full bitcoin standard if that’s an option for you.

It's very rude to assume people can think.
错觉，它打开链接调用了我系统浏览器的内核，所以能打开那些网站，但是我也不明白为什么不能打开油管和推特的链接，已经卸了，主要上边没有小姐姐
The underlying tech hasn't either.
I am British, seasoned Computer Engineer, based in London and I have written what to do tech wise. Nostr is part of it. Web5 is part of it. But we need adoption.

Each regular event is signed only by a signer key and then submitted to relays only once, so there is no duplication of regular events.
It is true that an inkan personality consists of a set of multiple key pairs and each of these can in theory make its own profile. Think of it as a split personality.
In practice, you'll want to create a profile for the key pair that represents your intended identity, i.e. the one that is your permanent public face, that you want others to follow and interact with, and that you protect by keeping its keys airgapped in a safe deposit box. In addition, I also like to create a second profile for my signer key pair, just so that it's easy to recognize and handle.
I don't think that maintaining two profiles per identity amounts to spamming relays. Remember that the profile that represents your actual identity never signs or publishes anything, only your signer does.

Luke is "incompetent kook"? The guy has literally saved Bitcoin twice, and counting KNOTs three times. Without Luke its doubtful Bitcoin would exist, or even Nostr for that matter. You must be new here, so try and catch up.

Just got debanked for the first time.
Randomly got a notification that 100K euro have been transferred from my account.
Went to the local bank, and the lady told me they've decided to close my account.
When I asked why, she told me "We don't have to give you any reason. We can just close your account.".
Told her I want to transfer my 100K euro to a different bank, and she told me that the money is no longer in my account, so she has to ask whether they'll allow me to transfer it 😂
It is a good reminder that a deposit is a loan you make to a bank.
You are an unsecured creditor of the bank, not the owner of any specific asset the bank holds.
They can just fuck with you.
Had to wait ~1 for the central office to give me permission to transfer my money to another bank, then had to pay 15 EUR for my bank statement since they already closed my online banking 😂
I use bank deposits because I must (payments, interface with the system), but this is a good reminder not to confuse them with survival capital in this rotten regime.
Banks are just a state-dependent intermediary and the state is the enemy.
