When the Bitcoin Conference asked me to speak, I first eugfested a Nostr panel and said I’d happily participate. Until recently I literally had no main stage panel because I pointed my enthusiasm toward that concept.

I said I want something interesting, and said that Nostr counts as interesting.

The conference started to put it together as a side panel, but some of my key fellows dropped out for business reasons. And the conference said I should do a keynote. And then the Nostr panel conflicted timewise with my keynote, which I pointed out to the conference. So I won’t be doing a Nostr panel. And then my keynote was moved anyway. I said given all the raised/macro shifts, I’m happy to talk macro.

The folks that tried to fit my schedule are good people doing good work.

I have no qualms with them. I’m doing both a keynote and panel on the main stage.

But now I feel the need to mention Nostr on the main stage. Which I will. 😈
