Satoshee on Nostr: nostr:note1ef999fhrw4hjj24gfeev2jm0dqfdrj0tpu62whk9swqup7y7cqpsr30umr Hey Derek! Glad ...
quoting note1ef9…0umrI don't know what this is, but I'm now super pumped to start my day.
Hey Derek! Glad to hear you like it! Feel free to use that image any way you wish 😉
Also, I'm glad you ask...
Essentially we are experimenting with this basic idea:
quoting note1c3r…qp2z#nostr + #Bitcoin allows for one to create products, distribute them digitally, and let the market decide whether and what that creation is worth.
So what we are doing with #NOSTRLEGENDS is simple:
First and foremost we are honoring some of the people who have worked tirelessly to not only make nostr the place it is today, but also what it becomes in the future. Getting into the nitty gritty:
1) We create a personalized digital product - in this case, utilizing AI + some manual design and adjustments to create these character images (inspired by #nostr user negr0 (npub1yrf…n8p0) who did something similar, but we are trying to take it a couple of steps further)
2) We post it & tag the relevant user(s)
3) The tagged user can then decide:
3.1) Whether they don't like it at all and consider it spam or view it in any other negative light, in which case it's not just wasteful but counterproductive to us
3.2) If they like it, but don't act on it, then we have at the very minimum achieved offering the specific user a pleasant surprise
3.3) If they like it, then they are free to download the image straight away and use/share it on their socials - with out logo and watermark (hopefully) still attached - providing us exposure
3.4) If they REALLY like it and want to use it for any personal or professional use at the highest quality possible and without advertising someone else's company, then they are more than welcome to purchase and download white-labelled and full resolution images. For the selling part we are currently testing the #nostr based marketplace shopstr (npub15dc…yv6e)
For example, here are the options for you if you'd like a higher res, whitelabel version(s) of this image:

Now I don't expect this to become a particularly profitable or important part of the business, I would say this is more for fun, to promote community engagement and as a general promotional exercise. That being said, the more we can automate everything, the more viable these kinds of business practices (where most, if not all of the product/service offered is free of charge) become. If AI managed to do this fully from step A to step Z, cutting energy and human time consumption to zero or near-zero, then why wouldn't we make cool avatars for everybody on #nostr to enjoy?
