This is not a product, its a foss lib

No. It's a signed message.

Ha! fixed.

Nostr seems to be killing with speed of development and [active users.](https://primal.net/explore)

I'm enjoying Damus client.

Same for me. Toronto

Looks like my HAM Go Box with a GPD https://twitter.com/nvk/status/1113183963571421187?s=20

What's the TL;DR?

Spend 5 min reading the first few blocks couldn't make out what's this about.

Nice try at spinning blame here, if publisher's didn't use such scamy Ad platforms and tracking we would be here.

Same from Toronto.

1. I'm not in the USA and i'm licensed. You could say the ITU may take issue.

2. The spirit of the law is in regards to actual financial interest, this were meaningless amounts and also testnet.

3. Transactions were not actually done over Ham, the transaction data was relayed over ham and broadcasted via internet. (long history of HAM 3rd party message relay).

4. No encrypted messages were transmitted. (and encryption is allowed as long as the cypher is public)

5. The spirit of ham is technical experimentation.

6. These tests were intended for use in countries where the laws don't matter and or in emergencies. In case of emergency it would be allowed to make financial transactions and/or send encrypted messages.

I feel like most rhetoric around that is usual internet-lawyering. If Wired care to contact for comment there would have been some context added.

I was the one who made the first transmission mentioned on the article. AMA

Apples and Oranges. One is just a fiat pegged shitcoin the other an independent monetary system.

Put that data in a separate drive then, all the rest should be encrypted by default.

You seem very confused about what money is.

I think they are being over cautious (other implementations are not as concern), but yes still in testing. There are over 100 nodes, doing a bunch of transactions no money lost.

Yes, maybe wishful-thinking but could have waited until a alternative was in place or at least have linked to a test implementation or something.

They should have replaced it with Lightning Network, is amazingly fast and cheap and works on top of Bitcoin. I'm running a test node, this stuff really works!

> Lightning is a decentralized network using smart contract functionality in the blockchain to enable instant payments across a network of participants.

In case you are curious https://lightning.network and another good resource here https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/7pwna9/lightning_n...

Odd, not on the first 3 pages.

We earn in Bitcoin and pay many suppliers in Bitcoin. The appreciation between earn and spend is quite nice.

please do, i'd read it.

You could say it's much worst to dig gold out of the ground. (even accounting for the percentage for industrial use)

Toronto is a major Bitcoin hub.

Wonder why they didn't mention LiFePo4. Amazing, non explosive production cells. A bit pricier, but not that much.

I think you nailed it.

1. On top of that, there is also the fact that 100K new ppl move into the GTA every year. A good chunk of the wants to live in DT Toronto, further reducing the small supply;

2. Toronto produces 30% of Canada's economic output;

3. By many metrics, Toronto is extremely underpriced for the job and quality of life you get compared to other countries' largest cities;

4. Toronto is the 3rd largest North American city;

5. It's possible part of the prices are just tracking the USD as the CAD dropped ;and

6. The truth is, the majority of the Canadian population won't know/accept that in this single city people make 5-10x the income they make, hence "bubble" being thrown around as the obvious answer.

100% this, most people don't realize a lot of these corps are the "Jobs Programs". They take huge tax breaks to provide these 40/hr week unproductive boring jobs, or no one else will. In Canada we call them Banks and Telcos.

Just talking about search alternative; DuckDuckGo is my default search engine for over 2 years. It's incredibly good, the only caveat is you need to re-learn how to search. The same way you "changed yourself" initially for google.

They take pull requests https://github.com/whispersystems

There are better ways to give feedback than just saying a free app is "crap"

Every good dev I know makes 100K+, some make 150K+ and cost of living is much less.
