0 sats \ 2 replies \ @brandonsbytes OP 28 May \ parent \ on: ELI5: what does ecash do different than lightning? bitcoin
ah ok, so a use case would be, I have some sort of award/reward system on my website, but my users are not bitcoiners, so I could ecash which would make it easier to onboard newbs, but they can still redeem for real sats when/if they are inclined.
What of my generation? Our plan of life has been to put off the old patterns of adulthood. There will be plenty of time for that, we’ve been told. For now there’s a vacation, a concert, a promotion to think about. But something is missing in a life made up of only these things. As one unmarried friend told me before she left New York, “I like my lifestyle, but not my life.”
Well put.
on their jobs due to various factors like the decline in organised religion and the prevalence of vocational awe (that you find your calling via your job)
this is very interesting.
ah, that’s cool. I’m thinking more of a whatsapp/telegram like clone app. I’m gunna look more into it.
Part of me agrees, and another doesn't. If you know the problems you'll start hitting when scaling, not using the right tool to begin with is asking for pain you don't need. But, making things complex when you aren't scaling massively is also asking for pain you don't need.
So, I think the answer is to write everything yourself. 😂 Reinvent every wheel!
Gotcha. I had a kind of fun, funky idea of doing awards profiles on nostr using polls. So, like, a 2023 profile that posts best sci-fi book of 2023 poll, best non-fiction book of 2023, etc. And then folks vote with zaps. Keep track, and build a frontend for showing and filtering on years, winners, etc. Might create a lot of noise though.
