Monero on Nostr: Some progress
Reply in thread
Hi, thanks for the reply. So with Mastodon, your identity is tied to a server which the admin can censor. If you own the server, then other servers can censor via defederation. This becomes an issue in the case that Monero is banned by governments and physical locations with IP addresses have to comply.
Instead, Nostr separates identity from physical locations through encryption. This allows you to own your identity like you'd self-custody Monero. This video goes over the basics: https://video.simplifiedprivacy.com/nostrtutorial/
