  • Most people don’t even know what Monero is. Most people don’t even know what Nostr is. Most people don’t even know why Linux matters. Education is needed. Just talking in a vacuum is talking to yourself. Outreach must be done to existing groups/people. If you want to sit on your ass and do nothing, okay good luck bye. But I’m building. I’m grinding.


  • A CSS proposal isn’t going to get your landlord to accept XMR, that comes from you and culture. And depending on what country you live in, Coincards, Cake wallet, bitrefill (not xmr), ect. Do let you buy some basic items or food.

    The thing is, my proposal doesn’t cost CSS money. I’m asking you to have fun on a social network. I’m not catering to the “fringe techie community”, if anything this is easier to understand than any of the other networks, because it works in a web browser


  • Yes of course they can use all of these different tools, but having too many tools kills the network effect. I was telling you about arweave before, did you know Lens posts to Layer 3 arweave, so it can scale? Lens has DNS & does pictures over Nostr. Will Nostr folks find out? No, no network effect.

    RebelNet uses Nostr, but Nostr by itself is hard for new users. When you create a new keypair on your local device, you are meaningless with no discovery. In order to be heard, people follow mass amounts of other people they dislike, which ruins their feed and kills the fun. While on the RebelNet, all voices are heard based on merit, and you can build your Nostr following which you then own off-platform.

    Nostr clients don’t differentiate between the same post being reposted by a different user. This forces you to reread the same posts, creating resentment against the content creator. This resentment is why after you go viral, your next few posts get a dead response as people automatically skip rereading your stuff.

    In contrast, the RebelNet can link all of these. Interoperability is the path to adoption. In the same sense that converting cryptocurrencies from one to another makes them more widely used. This is bigger than a “website”, it’s the layer 0 protocol.





  • Hi, Rebel Net is an encryption as identity forum to empower the user against censorship. And I believe our disagreement may not be the URL or sources quoted, but in fact a philosophical view over what is legitimate.

    Security focused people such as yourself tend to view random hackers as the enemy, and try to protect large corporations or governments from these random hackers.

    On the other hand, privacy/crypto focused people, such as the RebelNet, tend to view the enemy as the government and large companies such as Google/Apple. And we seek to protect the liberties of the individual. In the case of the Rebel Net with censorship.

    So it’s not that you dislike my URL, it’s that you disagree with my entire worldview. And that’s fine, it’s just not Monero.
