IngwiePhoenix on Nostr: Again - I never dug further into contracts than reading the basics of Solidity and ...
Again - I never dug further into contracts than reading the basics of Solidity and skimming articles about SC's in Etherium - so I am not the most informed.
I don't think that Nostr provides the neccessary source of proof for that - so in that sense, "insecure" might not be the right word, but it's close enough.
Here's a link: https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/755
I get that Nostr, as a protocol, can technically be anything and everything. But... Does it need to?
Does it have to be the be-all-end-all? Or shouldn't it focus on the core features? Neither question has a definitive answer.
Personally, I associate smart contracts with Etherium, and indirectly Bitcoin. I would love it if Nostr wasn't so obsessed to be -coin bound. But neither do I call the shots nor should anyone be limited. And yet, I hope this does not see an implementation as I feel it would further pull Nostr into the "Crypto Bubble" that I think it shouldn't be in.
Or, in more rudimentary phrasing: I don't want to see Nostr destroy itself by adapting all the things it doesn't need; I don't want to see it ruined.
That said, I should go and read more on those smart contracts, then revisit the PR. Mulling it over with half-baked knowledge isn't right, nor fair to the one proposing the NIP.
