mass transit seem like such a good use case. so much friction in this world

bsv is in this paradox where if the network gets its first 1 million daily users , it can take over the world

Gaining these first 1 millions users is hard. Low-hanging fruit falls away every year, and windows of opportunities close every year , As Lesser tech keeps taking on users.

I like that relayx is standing up for artists and organic NFT market.

Rarecandy seems to want to push out insider deals and iterate collections on that, repeating the twetch approach and still running a tightly-controlled hierarchy

Somebody with a not-better-than-average social perception would not have a better-than-average grasp on NFT value.

if CSW has aspergers and is well below average in reading social cues , if you ask CSW to seek his opinion on NFTs, then it is saying you don't understand what NFTs are about. It would make much more sense to be seeking opinion of a social hyper-aware person like Joe Rogan what he thinks .

If women could provably flex their LV bag as NFT from their IG profile, suddenly a lot of female influencers would be on board

Key · blockpost.network

Once you understand what an NFT ownership really means, you realize that the most popular NFT for most females is called a "pocketbook" . It's partly the art/style/craftsmanship of it but mostly its the expression of social affinity , which for many women associates mostly with Status. That boils down to the label and the label's social value as its primary characteristic .

Just transfer the multi-billion $ market to being 1) online and 2) more oriented toward guys.

This is what NFT market is. probably the best NFT analogy you will find.

People miss the value distinction between

proves to me what I own is authentic

proves to others what I own is authentic

then the difference in expressing those in person and online

remember , in person value is just a few, depending how many people see you in your daily life.

Online value, the internet, is everybody in the world might see you, what's your audience

Many people understand these NFTs innately.

they grew up socially, are socially adept , and were familiar with trading Pokémon and sports cards

then there are the less socially adept and more analytical types , the Roy murphy guys, who can't get this at all .

a guy like me is a bridge and hope I can explain it to the people who don't get it

saying these social NFTs, of some blend of meme art and quality art, are a fad would be like saying designer woman's pocketbooks were a fad in 1970.

i just explained how they are similar socially

If LV figures out what this will do for their sales , it's going to be an unstoppable wave.

When, don't know but expect FB to lock in all this For their cut Of the market .

If FB can get a billion dollar 90% cut real fast, they won't care as much that they don't control the platform

Bitcoin Association focuses on the wrong stuff

As much as people pay attention to internal bsv fanfare, I really expect the thing that makes bsv book will be some app or concept that nobody saw coming and just got traction in the rest of world for whatever reason.

I don't know if my ideas will blow up but if 50 people in bsv spent a year each trying to advance their own novel fresh ideas, it's likely somebody's will.

what will not help is 300 people following a monolith hierarchy chasing two or 3 ideas

Key · blockpost.network

We have to do both well

We have to make bsv immersion as Value-driven and engaging as possible

But if we're all hanging out in TG chats among ourselves, we'll still fail

We also have to do things that reach new people . This is even more difficult of a challenge.

Yes very good if you can create an market avenue to reach beyond bsv.

I have a broad media concept I have started working in that direction. You can see a little glimpse of it at my twitter AceofGears. So it's a concept aimed toward an audience in a someplace Not here

i think apart from being encrypted on chain, jpegs should be sold in person. buyer chooses how when where to display only.

then again i never cared for nft s

nice idea.

i been toying with an opposite. trying to sell a bitcoin app dissociated from 'the community'. even considering calling the bitcoin 'tokens' and not telling customers its bsv
