This article is fantastic, it is the best article on Nostr I have seen in a while. Nostr's super-simple solution to a complex problem is clearly illustrated. Nostr is not only a victory for decentralization, but also a tremendous increase in the efficiency of client and server development. The development cost of the client and the server is greatly reduced, and each performs its own duties. Nostr's separation of powers, the user has private rights to the private key, the relay has the data storage rights, and the client has the editorial rights to the published content. The most important thing is that the user has all the rights when he has the private key.

I recommend that the speeches for this #Nostrasia conference be synced to Nostr's long article so that anyone who can't attend can see all the talks on Nostr. nostr:npub16vrkgd28wq6n0h77lqgu8h4fdu0eapxgyj0zqq6ngfvjf2vs3nuq5mp2va 🫂💜🫡 nostr:note16fnezalrgm6wk0tdvkxckz8ae5lc8ed9cns6tvq2plpqppfm8erqz77shw

Yep. It’s the “signal” Elon just put out this week.

Business people will miss it and think “blockchains” can be used on everything, or completely steer away from them on the whole.

The fringe will continue to drive this next wave of innovation until the products and features are sound enough to move out of dorm rooms, garages, and basements and into the public eye. Meaning they are easy enough for everyone’s grandmother to use.

Personally, I don’t think we are that far off. In this next wave we’ll see how much of the infrastructure has been laid and is ready. The major win, IMO, will come from wallets as they are the lowest hanging fruit at the moment.

I can't agree more. "The tech wave is driven more by" killer apps "than the technology itself." #Nostr is now particularly like the Homebrew Computer Club, and the Nostr client App is like Apple I-1976 and needs to continuously improve the experience. We're just a fringe app right now, but the demands of the core free tech revolution will make this mainstream. Needs like the textile machine for the steam engine revolution, the automobile for the internal combustion engine revolution, the light bulb for the electric revolution, and the iPhone for the smartphone. I believe that time is coming.
