⚡️💬 THE END OF A CHAPTER - It's with a mixture of pride, exhaustion and sadness that I announce today the achievement of the 3 major objectives I set myself for the nostr:nprofile1qqsy67zzq5tc9cxnl6crf52s4hptdwhyaca5j7r8jwll535tdadedvcpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumrpdejqcs6pd2 project. The last one has just been reached.
➥ 1 million satoshis reached on day 121
➥ 10,000 notes published on day 182
➥ 10,000 subscribers reached today, day 217
I'm proud, because I've kept my word. And keeping one's word, in this day and age, has become a rarity. I'm committed to it. I really do.
I'm tired, because 217 days without a break, 24/7... it's a never-ending marathon. As I write this, my sleep debt is probably in the hundreds of hours.
And I'm sad, because there are no longer any achievable short-term goals. Disappointed too, because the return has not been commensurate with the energy invested. But I'm still hopeful. The news of the last few days is clearly in Nostr's favour.
➤ Key figures
- 12,100 published notes
- 217 days of activity
- 2,539,773 cumulative sats
- Around 8 hours of work per day
- 7,900 replies
➤ Work details:
- 12,100 ÷ 217 = 55.76 notes per day
- 55 ÷ 24 = 2.3 notes per hour, day and night
- 217 × 8 = 1,736 total working hours
- 2,539,773 ÷ 217 = 11,704 sats per day
- 11,704 ÷ 8 = 1,463 sats of hourly output
→ Or approximately $1.63 per hour.
What does the future hold for nostr:nprofile1qqsy67zzq5tc9cxnl6crf52s4hptdwhyaca5j7r8jwll535tdadedvcpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumrpdejqcs6pd2? Continue to work very hard, stay free and independent, offer subtitles on videos, take out a subscription to a video editing application, change my profile photo because I hate it so don't be surprised if tomorrow I change to something more sober, more professional, more minimalist (I spent several days finding what I wanted), take more time for myself and my family, get back into sport. But that's none of your business... I digress.
In short, nothing's going to change, maybe the frequency, but I'm not sure because I'm addicted to Nostr.
To tell you the truth, I'm far from an amateur at what I do. I've gone through all the platforms, honing my skills like a craftsman, from one network to the next. Wherever I've been - Facebook, X, Telegram - I've been able to impose myself, learn, progress and accumulate hundreds of thousands of subscribers.
But my final quest is Nostr. I've got there with thousands of hours of experience. And above all, I'm getting there at a time when I'm most lucid, most solid and most demanding of myself.
Nostr is the final chapter in my network adventure. The final boss. The apotheosis of my work and my imprint on the Internet.
I came from nowhere, I'll leave from nowhere. I'm not looking for glory or validation. Just to do my job and do it well.
Grateful for every zap, like, comment, bookmark, quote, and quiet endorsement.
Thank you and good night, peace.
