Why I Write On Nostr

I write about my bitcoin journey and why I think nostr is an important protocol because it resists government censorship, and protects our sensitive data from insecure Chineese and American Corporations because it requires none of this information.

Nostr Is Crypto Anarchy

I muse about how nostr is crypto anarchy because anyone with a private key and a lightning address can start a business selling something on nostr, without any government controlled corporation such as Facebook market place. It is a true public square on the Internet, crypto-anarchy in action.

Purple Pill The People

I have tried to orange pill businesses in the past, but it didn't work. Now I think we should orange pill our waitresses, barbers, and FOSS developers. I think we can do this by purple pilling the people instead of asking them to accept bitcoin. This is because we can use nostr as the Venmo of bitcoin.

Orange Pilling Merchants

Brian DeMint talked about a coffee shop near me on The Freedom Footprint Show, so I am trying to orange pill the merchant and see if he will accept bitcoin because I want a place to host my local bitcoin meetup that accepts bitcoin.

Bitcoin Is Cash Money

Bitcoin is not peer to peer property. Bitcoin is peer to peer electronic cash. In this blog I show you how to buy coffee using bitcoin as peer to peer electronic cash even took a vow to never spend your bitcoin. The merchant doesn't even need to know you spent any of your precious sats on your brown energy juice.

Why 21 Million?
