Wouter Constant: The Internet Nobody Can Censor - Nostr, Free Speech, Social Media & Digital ID
Wouter Constant is a writer, researcher and programmer focused on the development of Nostr, a decentralised system designed to offer an alternative to the monopolies of social media platforms. His expertise lies in distributed computing and decentralised networks, including Bitcoin.
We had the absolute pleasure of speaking with Wouter about the future of online communication, exploring why platforms like Twitter and Facebook became so powerful, how Nostr works, and whether it could offer a more censorship-resistant internet. We also discussed free speech, privacy, digital identity, content moderation, the risks of government regulation, and why it’s so difficult for people to leave the platforms they already use. Could Nostr change the way we communicate online?
Hope you enjoy!

Researchers from dTeam, a US-based group that tracks Moscow-linked influence operations, told BBC Verify there has not been "any traffic change from known Russian accounts and bot clusters on any platform".
They added that if the offices of known groups involved in these operations "were in flames then we would see a change".
Bots linked to pro-Kremlin influence operations like Storm-1516 and Matryoshka - both of which BBC Verify has previously reported on - were still active on social media on Tuesday, evidence shared with BBC Verify by dTeam shows.
anyone know some #monero heads that mainly talk about things other than crypto? it seems almost everyone here is crypto this, crypto that. i find it exhausting. i really like monero folk, they seem wise and properly aligned. i just want to read more about other things, like: linux, tech, foss, riscv, private messengers, mesh networks, darknets, decentralized solutions, etc. maybe i should just try to be what i wish to see.
IMO more Bitcoiners should spend more time on understanding that if "digital credit" is developed it will ensure #BTC never goes to $1m
That may even be the point of "digital credit."
But Bitcoiners would be well-served to study "credit gold" that began in London in mid-80s

What a privilege to be tired from work you once prayed for.
What a privilege to feel overwhelmed by growth you used to dream about.
What a privilege to be challenged by a life you created on purpose.
1. In my opinion, DNMs should start integrating the Nostr protocol. Imagine if the next platform is seized: the sellers don't lose their reputation if their reputation is stored on Nostr relay servers. This stuff improves the experience for clients AND sellers. The network can be resilient if this DNM is located on the Nostr relays.
2. I think with the new technologies like AI Agents + Nostr, it is now possible to create a truly resilient autonomous DNM as a living organism. Imagine if special types of agents are running on the VPS servers, whose job is checking for the decentralised DNM relays, being able to spin up new servers and spin up these relays on them. If some relays are shutting down, the agents can spin up the next relays, creating a true healing system, and if the agents have enough balance, they can expand to the next new VPS to create new relays, autonomously, they can pay for servers via crypto.
3. For every order/transaction in this DNM network: before creating an order, you pick a mediator between the client AND the seller. Every mediator will have a reputation (like 4.8/5 and so on). You can manually verify every comment that ppl write when they rank them. You can trust the ppl who used this mediator to trust the mediator. You see the amount of trades this mediator did and the % fee rate from the trade. This stuff eliminates the need to trust one DNM admin like we have now. This stuff will be sovereign and work on the Nostr level.
4. Relays should be hosted on the Tor/I2P networks to keep their IPs hidden.
Yes, what I wrote is sci-fi, and I haven't thought deeply yet about how to implement it. But hey, it's interesting for me what you guys think about it.

This video misses the point, that the network is controlled, not by the miners, but by the node runners - i.e. you and me. The supporters of the BIP-110 chain fail to understand that, just as the supporters of BCH did. Centralization of mining is a serious concern. But Kratter is a total whack job, and you should look for the opinion of more trustworthy sources.
Also, any time you hear the term "SHA 256 chain", let that be a red flag to you. It's called bitcoin. Shitcoiners like the BIP-110ers, the BCHers, the BSVers, and others, always try to change the name of bitcoin, so that they can claim to be the true bitcoin. The fact that they need to resort to such deception should tell you something about their motives.

**Mars’s Strangest Cloud Just Got Even Stranger**
By European Space Agency - Published on 14 October 2026
Modeling suggests Mars’s Arsia Mons cloud may form ice without dust, pointing to a process never before observed in a planetary atmosphere. A white cloud grows downwind of Mars’s Arsia Mons volcano each morning during spring and summer in the planet’s southern hemisphere. Rising beside a volcano 20 kilometers (about 12 miles) tall, this wisp [...]

Good rip, gents. Multisig isn't as intimidating as it can seem. One idea I first heard from Michael Flaxman some years ago is a "dumb 2of2 multisig". Not certain that's what he calls it, but that's what I call it. Take your HW device of choice and a hot wallet, and make a 2of2 multisig via coordinator of choice. Usual cold wallet hygiene for hw device. Back up the hell out of that hot key, even in usually unrecommended ways...email to yourself, post-it on monitor even. Even if hw device becomes 100% pwned, attacker doesn't have that second key. On-chain fees are very inexpensive these days...to build reps, can even make 2of2 hot wallet and practice sending, receiving, and restoring. Take the time to become comfortable...it pays off. Cheers!

Stainless steel cookware earns its place in every pro kitchen because it delivers even heat and a reliable sear without the fuss of coatings. I’ve found that a quick water drop test tells me when the pan is ready, and it makes me wonder if home cooks are missing out on that simple trick.

I'm slightly haunted by @MaxUM words on the latest #bitcoinbrief
"just have some things in other assets and don't don't put all your eggs in one basket here. It's it's fucking scary.
Even with multisig, I'm like, oh, okay, yeah. You know, multisig is what you're advising now. Until what? Until some fucking maths problem maybe, you know, isn't so unsolvable, until there's some random issue that we haven't seen"

📜 al-Ḥikam of Ibn ʿAṭāʾ Allāh — Wisdom #119
الصَّلاَةُ تَطَهِّرُ الْقَلْبَ مِنْ أَنْجَاسِ الْذُّنُوبِ وَتَفْتَحُ أَبْوَابَ الْغَيْبِ
"The formal prayer purifies the heart from the dirt of misdeeds and opens the door to the unseen."
The commentary explains that prayer (salāh) is not merely an external action of the body, but a profound spiritual practice that cleanses the inner heart from the filth of sins and transgressions. Through the discipline and presence required in formal prayer, the believer's heart becomes pure and receptive, allowing the veils between the created and the divine to be lifted. This is why the spiritual masters emphasize that a prayer lacking presence of heart is like a body without a soul. When performed with sincere intention and full awareness of standing before Allah, prayer becomes the gateway through which divine knowledge and unseen realities become illuminated to the seeker's heart.
— Sharḥ al-Ḥikam, commentary by Ibn ʿAbbād al-Rundī

I’ve made my decision. I’m betting big on Nostr. 🫡
I’ve already retired, and I have no source of income. Still, I’m choosing to invest my time, my energy, and a part of my life into Nostr.
Why? Because I love it. And I believe in its future.
My weapon of choice is nostrfy, my Nostr relay server engine. I believe it can help me build something bigger: a stronger ecosystem, more tools, and more reasons for people to join Nostr.
Am I scared of having no income? Absolutely.
But sometimes, building the future takes a little madness.
If you believe in what I’m doing, a zap, a repost, or even a few words of encouragement would mean the world to me. ❤️
I’m all in.
Let’s build something extraordinary together.
Who’s ready for the adventure? Let’s go, Nostr fam! 🫡⚡️
Here it is. The finished Nostr floral wreath. They say you shouldn’t praise your own work, but I just love it 🤍

Almost didn’t do this hike because it was calling for rain…
I’m learning there is really no such thing as “bad weather” - just not being prepared
Thankfully I’m glad I decided to do this hike because these are some of my favorite images from Utah
The rain and fog made for such moodiness
Don’t be afraid to go for a hike in the rain

maybe the reason tech bros and perpetually online people call nostr a ghost town is because there are no greed incentivized attention capture algos and you actually have to build relationships to have people to talk to.
⚡️🇪🇸 NEW - Spain has blocked Archive today and six of its mirror domains, cutting off access to a popular website used to save copies of webpages and preservation
The service lets users take snapshots of websites and access them later, even if the original page gets deleted or changed. It’s often used by journalists, researchers and people who want to preserve information online.
The block was ordered through Spain’s Intellectual Property Commission under the country’s copyright enforcement system. Authorities claim the service facilitates access to copyrighted material.
The affected domains include archivetoday, archiveis, archiveph, archiveli, archivemd, archivefo and archivevn.

Whenever people get a small animal like a fish, hamster, or bird, they always like to get that animal “a little friend” so it’s not all lonely in their enclosure.
Let me ask you this, if I just grabbed any human completely at random off the face of this earth and stuck that human in a little room with you, what’s the chance you would like that person? I, myself probably like about 2% of people if even that much.
Now…you’re a hamster and your owner brings you another hamster, but that hamster is a Scientologist whose life mission is to convert you. Good luck.
