That framing makes me think of how we learn to trust a neighbor's word before we trust a distant map. ✨ Sharing raw updates & our personal story from Gaza on my pinned note.

If you agree that the world without idealists is a hollow place why are you trying to get rid of the idealists? No. Be a idealist. We need more idealists. Life is not worth living if you aren't one. ...

Almost. Bitcoin is a tool. But Bitcoin, like most things in society, is made out of people. Those who participate matter.

Your ideals and dreams are your Direction, but don't make the mistake of thinking Bitcoin or Nostr are destinations or even a requirement for your ideals.

There is no "Bitcoin Dream." Maybe you are thinking of a voluntaryist dream, or free markets, or a world without violence, etc, but those are not locked to Bitcoin or Nostr or any specific thing.

The dream lives by the people that work to make it real.

That's the reason why I started building colabonate protocols and app as a tool on top of BTC and Nostr so collaborative commerce and cooperation becomes a decentral way of organizing my way of offering the values I can share a free human being.

Some people blacklisted nvk, and his products, years ago, avoiding this tragedy.

Those people used their own judgment, not hype or fame, to make decisions.

You can be one of those people, but you need to shed your current method of choosing whom to trust. This is not high school, there are no loyalties.

To be honest, and I've been around as long as you have, You are not someone that I have a lot of trust in for some of the same reasons that I've never trusted NVK. But when you're right, you're right, and you are right about that one.

I always thought the Pubky people were right about that. Just trust the server, don’t trust every single post. But maybe there is a middle ground where people can sign every individual post if it’...

You can still sign anything you want in Pubky, but we try to make it intentional, with purpose, because you also need a good key scheme that allows people to keep keys cold as much as possible.

Signing every note isn't really needed, and it isn't even giving you real data integrity, since every signed note floats alone, without context.

We have a noise-scheme that will allow things like app keys, device keys, for live signing too.
