#Bitcoin vs #Nostr (Please bear with me 🙏)

I'm very confident that bitcoin will succeed in a long run thanks to its incentive model which motivates miners, node operators as well as users. And so far it works perfectly.

Nostr is quite new - being created in late 2020 and more actively used last 6,7 months or so. I'm thinking about the incentives for relay operators and if it is feasible to achieve wider adoption while maintaining its independence and speed. I'm not sure paid relays are the way - or rather - will it be sufficient motivation if there will be natural tendencies to flock towards super big relays hosted in AWS or Azure because of convenience, speed, utility and price?

On the other hand #bitcoin had many issues back in 2011 as well and people much smarter than me came up with brilliant solutions or even explained to me that what I see as problem actually is a feature.

I'm just thinking out loud. Waiting to get educated. Hoping to get educated! 🙏

Have a purple day everyone! 💜
