Not really.
Just a couple ways off the top of my head:
- spin up a new Nostr client, ideally web-based. Control or influence what shows up on the Global feed (boost, shadow ban, etc based on keywords or pubkey)
- using fake zaps, boost specific notes with favorable content (its free, most Nostr clients will highlight the huge amount of zaps that note received, so the post is automatically more-or-less "boosted" on most Nostr clients)
- cleverly amplify concepts and practices that undermine privacy and de-centralization, as long as they align with the nostr ethos on the surface, influencers and gullible devs will do the rest to promote it (like "zaps")
With chatGPT its even easier: create fake accounts, fake discussions with a certain slant, use fake zaps to make things look legit, and occasionally tag actual accounts in the replies ("hey @alice, why do you think @botBob said that?"). Sooner or later you'll have engagement whch you can frame as you want, on the topic you want, and nobody can tell its fake.
