Nostr is attractive. Men who care about freedom for all and not asking for permission is attractive. Financial freedom is attractive. Caring about human rights is attractive. Building is attractive. Being grateful for the moment but building a better future is attractive. Don’t underestimate how attractive and cool this whole thing is please.

I've been busy working on the @npub1dvmcp stuff, focusing on the spec and packages, and I forgot to show some of the servers I'm already running that are free and open to everyone, these are like apps you can plug into your llm or agents to give them new capabilities. Of course, there's no guarantee of uptime, but they've been running well for a few weeks now with no noticeable downtime. I wanted to put together some useful tools that the majority of people might find useful.

his is an MCP server that you can use to perform searches with DuckDuckGo and retrieve the results. This is useful for improving your search experience by collecting real-time data, performing research, and anything that involves fetching fresh data from the Internet and making it available to your llm.

Chinese manufacturers explaining how Americans can buy luxury goods from them directly. Others are offering services to help Americans shop in China for furniture and even (portable) homes. There is no beating the prices they're offering even with the tariffs.
Tons of videos like this too. What a way to onboard.
One day we'll make a similar video for Nostr adoption 😂 I believe in us.

Freedom tech has A LOT to offer to the AI world, problems that people coming from that lens don't even know will be solved with shortcuts that will be incredibly difficult to solve (identity, payment, trust, curation, etc)
It's on us to bring that perspective into that world.
And by _bring_, I mean "build and show" what freedom tech enables AIs to do.

"im actually bearish on the 'consumers will all be prompting their own full apps' thing because most good apps require data and there is no such thing as real data portability for consumers."

This update introduces a reworked configuration system, making it easier to connect to tools with flexible and user-friendly methods. Additionally, the new interactive mode allows you to use natural language to discover and integrate tools as if you were in a toy shop, picking out exactly what you need for your workflows.
We hope the ecosystem will continue to grow with active tools, we are also working on enabling machine-to-machine payments to support operators and make everything more reliable. This is an exciting step forward for the project, which is still in its early stages

Marc Cuban has invested in Skylight Social, a tiktok alternative built on the AT protocol. It just dropped.
This is how the founder explains it on their tiktok. They also have another post calling it the "unbannable tiktok".
Her videos are going mini viral but all the comments say there are login issues and other complaints.

because we see the zaps they earned. we can say those zaps are mine, gimme. easy to prove who posted first. but who will be stuck having to enforce that? technology? government?
this guy is upset but not vengeful because he doesn't know how much money was just stolen from him. imagine once they all know. endless lawsuits once nostr is adopted by the majority.

Self-validating data is information that carries intrinsic proof of its authenticity and integrity, eliminating the need for external validation from a central authority. This approach enhances security, reduces reliance on intermediaries, and improves data portability across different systems.
What is Self-Validating Data?
Self-validating data includes built-in mechanisms to confirm its correctness without requiring external verification. Key properties of self-validating data include:
1. Cryptographic Signatures – The data includes a signature that can be independently verified against a known public key.
2. Tamper Resistance – Any modification to the data invalidates the signature, making alterations detectable.
3. Decentralized Verification – Anyone with the necessary cryptographic tools can validate the data, rather than relying on a central authority.
Examples of self-validating data include signed blockchain transactions, cryptographic proofs, and digital signatures

Americans would never stand for that kind of treatment entering any other country, let alone their own.
This is #Nemesis the Canadian singer, explaining it. Please watch.
She is very talented but was dropped by her label on October 8th last year. She was forced to become independent and has self-marketed on tiktok with great success. She is currently nominated for 3 Juno awards.

We held a focus group with friends and family last night on some new marketing videos explaining the idea of @nextblock and the app’s features.
This group barely understood Bitcoin let alone Nostr.
Some of their initial questions:
“How could social media even work without algorithm?”
“Who decides what I see?”
“How can I find new accounts?”
“What if I decide I don’t want to see something and then “it” never shows me that again?”
“How it could be fun without an algorithm deciding what shows?”
Fortunately, the focus group session ended with someone asking…
“So WE are the algorithm?”
To which @Ian & I enthusiastically responded: YES!

He asked what made it valuable and why would it go up in price.
I said, if you could know that the set of rules for the economy were perfectly fair, where everyone had to put in value to get it out and nobody could cheat, would that be worth something to you?
Him: hell yeah.
Me: well we clearly don’t have that when someone can print trillions of dollars and just consume a horrific amount of capital without doing anything at all, right? Causing the price of everything to double, just like the PVC price we were just talking about.
So imagine you could just know, that whatever someone else did to get those bitcoin, you could *know* beyond any doubt, that they

I recently learned that this is Saylor’s first halving, just like me. (Correct me if I’m wrong!)
The reason he has a large platform & speaks on #Bitcoin to the media is because he already had wealth and access to debt to buy a lot of Bitcoin.
Unlike other now wealthy & loud bitcoiners who stacked early, Saylor hasn’t “earned” his platform in Bitcoin world in the same way.
Like him or not, that’s the reality of this situation. Right? Sure he was already in the technology space, there is that… but does everything he says need to be debated by this community?
How many other millionaires/billionaires who are learning about bitcoin just now will lead our global discussions on bitcoin adoption and technology? How much of our attention do they *automatically*
