Nostr is the only payment network I've ever used that lets you send payments of less than $0.10.

- gkbrk 3y agoNostr is not a payment network. You probably used Lightning instead.
- RIMR 3y agoBitcoiner "understand what you advocate for" challenge (impossible).
- RIMR 3y agoNostr really feels to me like the blockchain: Nobody that advocates for it understands what it is or how it works.
- evbogue 3y agoBitcoin uses secp256k1, Nostr uses secp256k1. I was surprised as anyone to learn that when you exchange money using Nostr clients it is not directed at the private key that you use to sign Nostr messages.

- seanw444 3y agoYour condescending bone-to-pick attitude about people using cryptocurrency is kind of cringe.
- crotchfire 3y agoI'm surprised by this too. Bitcoin was developed just barely before ed25519 was finalized, which is probably why it uses secp256k1. Unless intended mainly for government users (FIPS), almost every new cryptographic system uses ed25519 -- except Nostr. I always assumed Nostr chose secp256k1 so you could send bitcoin to another Nostr user without some extra "payment address request protocol" bolted on the side. Very surprising that this was not the motivation!
- sureglymop 3y agoIs it really a payment network though? All the payment stuff happens outside of nostr and with different protocols.
