Open and permissionless protocols are already winning. We're starting businesses, jumping over middlemen, leveraging trust networks to publicly attest to contracts, writing books, building shit. This is a entire alternate parallel economy, market and society and its unstoppable. For anyone looking for the details on the "contract" stuff... @Kontext and I used

Attestr - Mutual Agreement Protocol on Nostr

Create, sign, and verify mutual agreements on the Nostr protocol. Build trust through cryptographic commitments.

to sign a simple agreement and publicly attest to our commitment. You can view it in the attestr UI here:

Attestr - Mutual Agreement Protocol on Nostr

Create, sign, and verify mutual agreements on the Nostr protocol. Build trust through cryptographic commitments.

(the UI is a little wonky, you might have to have the Primal relay selected). Here are the raw events: - The "Draft" / contract:

Nostr Event 18973 - Kind 18973

- @Whitepaper Books 's signature on the hash of the contract:

Nostr Event 30677 - Kind 30677

- @Kontext 's signature on the same hash:

Nostr Event 30677 - Kind 30677

Just this week we've had someone [complete a catallax bounty](

Nostr Event 3402 - Kind 3402

) involving a nostr publishing tool, and now Whitepaper Books is signing business deals with nostr authors using a nostr agreements tool. Any more dog-fooding and I'll start chasing cats!
