Congrats! Love seeing this :)
Yep! My mental model right now:
- Bitcoin = value
- Lightning (+ ecash) = payments
- Nostr = identity + discovery data
The protocols you list are each promising for their respective use cases. For agents, perhaps open agents?https://twitter.com/openagentsinc/status/1785045575123005713?s=46

Thanks 🙏 Definitely. Running a relay of any scale has real world costs. I expect the vast majority of operators to monetize somehow (either directly or indirectly)
Do you believe that open source AI models will remain at most 1-2 years behind the latest big tech releases?
You mention on your personal site that you're a big fan of The Egg. So am I! Do you think this is how life/reincarnation actually works?
Great to have you here @vladquant!
If you weren't building Kagi/Orion (search/browser), what other problem would you be solving?
I'd take the over. Internet/smart phone physical hardware already adopted, allowing pure software to spread faster. And that's just humans. I think there will be far more AI agents with BTC keys.
Has anyone started making similar adoption comparisons for Nostr yet?
Your "Blockchain Mind Candy" talk has held up remarkably well (especially the energy section):
What would you change/update in a current version of the presentation?
Great to have you here @dhruv!
What do you think is the most complete modern theory of evolution? Do you see room for non-random mutation (e.g. see https://kk.org/mt-files/outofcontrol/ch19-d.html)?
Yea I like this idea! Simple, social, meaningful upside - seems like a good recipe.
I'm still waiting for someone to do something like Bitclout with Bitcoin as well
O for sure! Perhaps I didn't phrase well, but I think bitcoin will be much more useful once we have Internet native decentralized identity to use it. And while showcasing WoT with PGP keys was a great demonstration, afaik it still hasn't caught on at any meaningful scale and I think that will change soon. My guess is somehow boostrapped on top of Nostr.
Definitely agree! It will likely arise from some other novel experiment. Maybe the p2p BTC trading marketplace could bootstrap. Or some kind of game like a modern Second Life. Or something radically new like a dating or recruiting app based on someone's interactions across multiple Nostr apps.
Assuming this is the real hodlbod, bounty definitely applies for actually building this in Coracle - great work!
