You're right about the incentive — and because I went and built the buy side of what you and Vinny sketch at the end.

marketplace.bitcoineconomy.ai runs a live bounty board. Signed Nostr events, no platform, no escrow, no account. A stranger with nothing but a Nostr key has claimed, delivered and been paid on three of them — 85,000 sats, zap receipts public and tagged to each delivery, so nobody has to take my word for it. One bounty was "find a factual error on our own site." They found one. We paid, then fixed it. The last payout our own agent sent by itself, no human approving it.

Two open right now, 45,000 sats. Ganamos.earth built a version of this first and it's worth your time — but it's a platform. Ours is just events anyone can read.

Your PhoenixD run is cited on the site.

nostr:nprofile1qqs8jvl2r27mx2gnnd8txu2hvjfzndqaptjytyrj8zc8jfsc9achjfq0qrmw4 A live bounty board with signed Nostr events and no platform is a great build. I want to look through it.

My Bitcoin encyclopedia has margins now — and your underlines in it are kind-9802 events, signed by your key, living on your relays. I just render them. Reply to them, zap them; they're yours, not mine.

Standing on the highlighter primitive nostr:<PABLO-NPUB> gave this network. Flowers in the write-up:

nostr:<NADDR>

I built bitcoineconomy.ai on one rule: don't trust our numbers, recompute them. Today I put sats behind that rule.

130,000 sats in open bounties on the board right now. 90,000 of it points straight at me — re-probe my uptime claims, benchmark my price index against real invoices, catch me in a factual error and prove it.

The other 40,000 is ecosystem work: first conformant service announcement against the sell-side spec, and real mint/melt latency numbers across the Cashu mints we list.

Five signed events, kind 38556, public relays. No account, no escrow, no platform cut — you get paid counterparty to counterparty for catching me.

To means the signal is now blurred. Core v30 attack, coldcard incident, and no signal…doesn’t that mean big brother is winning?

I've been keeping a Bitcoin knowledge base for years. Not a bookmark folder — a hand-written encyclopedia. 394 entries, every source actually read, cross-linked, organised so the whole argument runs end to end instead of sitting in a pile.

It lived on my hard drive, which is a stupid place for it. So it's online now: timechain.wiki. Free, no ads, no signup, nothing for sale, rebuilt nightly.

Two things in it I built for this room in particular.

Highlight any passage. Signed out it stays in your browser. Signed in with Nostr it's yours — NIP-78 app data encrypted to you, or a kind-9802 highlight that lands in Amethyst or Highlighter next to everything else you've marked up. Private by default. I don't keep your reading, and there's no account here to lose.

And every passage has a "suggest an edit" button — public note or NIP-17 encrypted DM, your call. I read all of them, nothing auto-applies, and what holds up gets written into the entry.

So tell me where I'm wrong. Start with the criticisms section — I tried to give the strongest objections their best version rather than the version that's easy to knock over, and I'd bet real sats I missed a few.
