nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 created Nostr. He’s been working full time at nostr:npub1m0ney2gz8r4przevwl6hmsr63m9ckcy3skllakl4mqemnc65pwfsv4dqkw almost since the inception of the company (2019). If I’m not mistaken Nostr first commit is end of 2020.
We enabled and supported him (financially and otherwise) working on the protocol, AND a bunch of other closed/open source projects for ZEBEDEE.
Incredible developers like nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s, nostr:npub1a8jzweysxa9qmtmht874736aalm0lwdsl306nrys9d05ktlrhw3qcr5pj4, yourself, nostr:npub1qqqqqqyz0la2jjl752yv8h7wgs3v098mh9nztd4nr6gynaef6uqqt0n47m and MANY others (sorry I didn’t tag everyone) have worked tirelessly on the protocol too and have taken Nostr to the next level!
My talk at Bitcoin Park was about CUBES - building blocks of technologies. And how innovative developers take CUBES built by others and take it further than thought possible before.
That’s what you have done to Nostr.
We have all taken nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6s invention and taken it to next level, TOGETHER.
Similarly, if it wasn’t for everyone’s efforts on LNURL, I wouldn’t have built Lightning Addresses. If Lightning Addresses weren’t widespread, there would not have been Zaps the same way they are today (for the record I’m sure nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s would have built it some other innovative way ⚡️)
This is about the impact of compounding technologies.
ZEBEDEE helped enable it and make it happen.
