debit=credit

That was the first form of self-validating data formalized by Paciolo in the 15th century. This gave rise to the modern banking structures and financial systems that we have today.

self-signed JSON

That’s the next form of self-validating data, discovered by and formalized by the #nostr protocol. Originally conceived as an alternative to social media, it’s proving out to be much more.

We are still early. Don’t underestimate its effect.
