Healthy skepticism is a good thing. From the README at https://github.com/saccoci/nostrcoin/blob/main/README.md

experimental educational project

and

Do not invest real money. This has ZERO monetary value.

I've tried to be clear that this is about fun and experimenting. No one is asking for any money in any form. If anyone does, don't do it. This is just trying, building, testing, pushing limits, breaking things, fixing things, imagining things, etc.

This has ZERO monetary value.

They said that about all the shitcoins. For example: Dogecoin in 2013 ("it's just a joke") and Ethereum in 2016 ("it's just a utility token") and Trumpcoin in 2025 ("it's just a meme token"). That doesn't work because the scammers/fintech bros/retards will always come (or be behind it and just ride the bullshit) and change the narrative.

The challenge I have for you is:

  • do the same but don't introduce a new coin.
  • if you need something for voting, backstop it with hard money guarantees (bonds in sats?)

This would give your experiment value.
