Fine. I'm here. Haven't decided if I believe this will scale beyond Bitcoin people
Discussion
I think it has a decent chance. Only time will tell but I’ve been enjoying my time here lol
Ayyy. Kinda fun to refind your frens
💯
https://nostr.directory/ helps you find your frens from the bird app
When it was put in the China app store there was a flood of non bitcoin users, very cool to see!
Welcome. It reminds me of the early days of Twitter. When it was just nerds. It might take 5-10 years.
I'm pretty sure it will. Plebs are tip of the spear, but the value proposition is too high, esp. for devs. All the cool shit will be built for nostr because users won't need to spend any time to build an audience, trying new apps & features is frictionless.
It doesn’t need to scale beyond Bitcoin people
The number of Bitcoin people scales over time all by itself
Once the whole world is filled with Bitcoin people, the whole world will be filled with Nostriches
(Although I’ll admit, as cool as Nostr is, it won’t have anywhere near the magnitude of impact that Bitcoin itself does on society)
Nostr: hold my beer
I’m not saying this to underestimate Nostr - it’s a testament to the economic power of Bitcoin that it makes free speech software look trivial
The ability to communicate and organize without threat of censorship or forced central control is incredible, but digital sound money is a once in a millennia level discovery
