Under this definition, a Nostr client must perform the following functions: It must sign notes as requested by the user, or send signing requests to the user’s preferred signer application. It must publish the user’s signed notes to the user’s preferred write relays. It must retrieve notes published by others from either their preferred write relays (outbox model) or the user’s preferred relays or proxies. It must verify the validity of the signatures attached to notes received to ensure the note’s author signed it with their private key and without any later alteration. If a Nostr app does not perform all of these functions, it does not meet this narrower and more technical definition of a Nostr client, and those who subscribe to this definition are warranted in saying that Primal is not a Nostr client. It might be a Nostr app of some other kind, but it is not a client. I have seen terms like “lite-client” or “gateway” suggested as alternative terms for apps that don’t perform all of the above listed functions of a Nostr client.

Credit is categorically different from money transfer. When a manufacturer needs raw materials today to produce goods he will sell in ninety days, no amount of bitcoin in circulation solves his problem unless he already holds enough to self-finance the entire production cycle. Money moves value through space. Credit moves value through time. The parallel economy has mastered the first and has no mechanism for the second. Savings alone cannot close this gap, because the person best positioned to produce is not always the person with the most capital, and waiting to accumulate enough bitcoin before starting production means foregoing the output that credit would have financed in the interim. Credit allows productive capacity to flow to where it is most needed.
