Farley on Nostr: Old world thinking: Central servers Fixed IPs Known endpoints Static infrastructure ...
Old world thinking:
Central servers
Fixed IPs
Known endpoints
Static infrastructure
Single execution surfaces
So malware meant:
Compromise the server → own the system
Bitcoin world:
No central server
No fixed IP
No single execution point
No global attack surface
No command authority
So malware means:
Nothing… unless a human voluntarily executes something.
