Nostrocket

Separation of Business and State

Nostrocket!

What companies call "Bitcoin" is not Bitcoin.

Recall that Bitcoin's entire value proposition is that it cannot be controlled by the State. It has no value beyond this.

If you use Bitcoin as a company, your Bitcoin activity is governed by the State (this is why "Bitcoin" companies like Strike, River, Unchained etc have compliance teams).

Bitcoin is permissionless, it doesn’t need KYC and you can send money to anyone on the planet (even if they're on the OFAC list).

What companies call "Bitcoin" is permissioned by the State (if you own/run/work for a company and don't believe me, I have friends on the OFAC list and I'd be happy to give you addresses for a few of them so you can prove me wrong by transacting with them).

The State-permissioned "fork" that companies call "Bitcoin" is mostly interoperable with genuine Bitcoin right now, but this fork will become more regulated as Bitcoin increasingly threatens the status quo, and the regulations will become more strictly enforced as we proceed deeper into phase two of Bitcoin's war against the State.

The Solution: Separation of Business from State.

All human organisational structures are fundamentally composed of human action (and interaction) because human action is the only primitive by which humanity can influence how the present reality is brought forth from the infinite potential of the future.

The usefulness of a bucket is created by the limitations or restrictions imposed by its base and sides. A bucket is useful because it holds water by creating boundary conditions on what the water cannot do while remaining in the bucket.

Human organisational structures are useful because what they do with humans is analogous to what a bucket does with water. These structures are defined by their boundary conditions on human action - what type of action humans can take while remaining within the organisational structure.

Nostrocket is an experiment in discovering the boundary conditions on sovereign human action that creates more value for honest and productive contributors than any other opportunity available to them. We do this by creating a universally applicable hill-climbing algorithm, executed by sovereign human action, and direct it towards discovering the optimal set of boundary conditions. This may not be possible, but if not it would be nice to know why so that we can iterate.

Nostrocket completely abandons the paradigm where companies need control of resources in order to allocate them towards some goal. Instead, it refactors the commercial venture as a non-custodial coordination layer between multiple individuals allocating their own time/resources towards solving a problem that they all believe is worth solving.

This is a complex problem. The first step is to connect proof of "work" directly to the satflow of a commercial interest in a completely non-custodial way.

Hypergolic is a nostr client that implements (some parts of) the Nostrocket protocol. It is buggy and experimental, and under active development.
