SN sub proposal - NOSTR market \ stacker news ~bitcoin

Feature SN sub request

Calling for this @k00b @ekzyis @supertestnet and any other shadowy supercoder interested in the proposal. IO know that there are many other marketplaces out there, but why we do not have on SN a sub for a marketplace with nostr or any other way you consider suitable. Let's give more options to users. Let's show to the nocoiners and haters that YES is possible to live paying with sats, directly from SN ! I am tired of those saying that they do not have places where to spend their sats.

A place where any SN member could:

spend their sats from SN account directly in buying stuff from other merchants
bitcoin only
SN could act as escrow service, so will limit the possible scams (could be a very interesting project for you @supertestnet)
help merchants to start accepting bitcoin for their products/services, directly to bitcoiners
other members willing to pay fiat bills in exchange for sats from other SN members
SN users could use a separate account for the market if they do not want to dox their main posting account (when is about delivering goods to a certain address)
any other feature that is necessary

PLEASE CONSIDER THIS IN YOUR DEVELOPING PIPELINE.

3 reasons why this is a BAD idea:

The sub will instantly be filled by dozens of ads for Ordinals and other BRC-20 crap tokens -> will damage signal/noise ratio even more
Some of the listings will be illegal stuff, can't prevent it -> possible legal troubles for SN and dev team
Crypto markets and Nostr marketplaces already exist -> no need to compete with that, and zero legitimacy for SN to go in this direction ("News",remember).

I would add that the fact that this idea could be debated is yet another proof that SN lacks a vision for the future. As long as there is no clear ambition/vision expressed (I would dare to say "roadmap", or at least a plan), people will suggest exotic (and bad) ideas.

I like the idea

Is SN the right place to do it though?

I just want to buy a pizza with sats from SN and close the bad mouth of all those bitcoin deniers saying that we can't buy anything with sats.

Does it make sense to have a market place on SN though? I'd say SN is tge place you WRITE about how you bought a pizza with sats.

and what is wrong to buy a pizza directly on SN and SN being the escrow service? I want a SN pizza 😂😂😂😂 Let's have a Silk Road for stackers

Why is that okay but using bitcoin to buy gift cards for pizza is cucked?

Well... I could send you a pizza from Australia. You won't eat it when it arrives though.

No, you didn't get my idea with pizza... or you don't know the history of bitcoin pizza. You do not send from australia to canada or whatever... you are just paying from australia to a pizza delivery in my area with bitcoin.

I prefere to spend my sats in:

donation to the rewards pool
donation to opensats Buying goods it high time preference. Its not time yet imho We need support the dev for builing a more robust enviroment and ease of use And not forgetting education the most needed right now

Is OK to donate. But for what are useful those tools that devs are building if we as users do not use them at all in real life paying to merchants? It doesn't make sense to build and not use them.

Be careful. Ross Ulbrict tried something similar and ended up in jail for life.

2 sats \ 0 replies \ @DarthCoin OP 10 Sep 2023

but not with nostr, this is totally something different. Also the whole Silk Road case was a trap. Ross was used as a patsy from the beginning by feds. The feds created SR and then coopted Ross to join and use him as an example for all bitcoiners.... scaremongering. A big setup against Bitcoin. That's why they keep him in prison for life.

Here I put together all videos and documents about SR case - please watch them and you will understand my point...
