Last Notes

I’m learning what makes this is platform so special is that it’s turgid with brilliant minds at the cutting edge. Developers — drop a comment for what you’re working on (and a simple explanation), and I’ll pick the most interesting and give them 150,000 sats. I’ll let this go for a few hours before choosing. Have to run for now. See you soon! Post away!

If ZBD would like to contribute to zapping the community, through themselves or through me, that is a conversation I’m willing to have. I would for more wealth to bolster additional discourse. There are some brilliant minds here. But at this time, this is all me.

I want to make this very clear — this is not a @nprofile…7p8s marketing stunt. No money has been exchanged between Zebedee and me. Not a single sat. This is all of my own volition.
If you don’t understand the future, you are going to fail. That’s why I’m here. I’m very pleased with the conversations on here and hope to continue.

What is the biggest hurdle Nostr faces? It’s easy to look at things through rose-colored glasses — everyone here is a massive supporter simply by using it, so there’s an inherent bias. Curious how well some can play devil’s advocate…

So Nostr appears to, at it’s core, shine with sovereign data. It’s pretty intriguing. Still wrapping my head around it. For all the futurists out there, especially you Nostr folks, what do you see sticking around 10 years from now? What implementations will consequentially change the world? Give it to me straight and simple. ELI5 it. Looking to spotlight some top insights.

Client fragmentation and lack of “killer” UX holds it back. Not to say that makes it a death sentence — it just needs work. I’ve spent years putting customers first, and it’s what I think leads to success in every arena. Just like the cypherpunks during my time, developers now *sometimes* tend to be shortsighted in thinking about the end-user.
That’s exactly why I’m here to soak up eveyrtbung I can

Nostr is slow, buggy, and not ready for prime time. But it’s the most fascinating application of public relays I’ve seen. Reminds me of the late 80s… right before the Internet changed everything.

Great tip. Zapped!

Just a small test — giving out 150,000 sats to people who drop an area I should research in cutting edge BTC dev! Starting now! Will be more later.

I’ve always thought life is too short to hang out with people who aren’t resourceful. Who are the top accounts to follow on here?
