Nostr Web Client

Nostr retention rate of “real” users after their first 30 days. April was the lowest month so far. March was the 2nd highest.

IMO this is a chart we should all be paying attention to. This isn’t just about building good software, it’s about building good communities. People find out about nostr when it’s mentioned on things like Joe Rogan, but after arriving they don’t see anyone familiar. After 30 days, 80%-90% stop using it.

We are early, yes. We need more than software engineers. We need content creators, content curators, and generally interesting people. Hey…that’s probably you!

Feel free to share interesting things outside of the nostr discussion. And invite content creators you like to cross post their content here. #AlsoOnNostr #YourKeysYourContent

Nostr needs to create the best incentives for content creators to create content here.

Nostr needs to be looking to steal marketshare from YouTube, twitch, onlyfans, etc by slashing those fees to participate on centralized platforms according to their terms of service and fee structure.

+ Inability to be deplatformed and thus have your stream of revenue interrupted for whatever reason

+ More money due to less fees

+ Their followers follow, get introduced to the network, the BTC/nostr/lightning networks grows

+Streamlined tipping, the sale of private keys to access encrypted content, user authentication, subscriptions etc

Build it and they will come

And I think to start, we need to get people to cross post. Go for the #AlsoOnNostr concept. The audiences aren’t here yet, so if a person is still welcome on YouTube and other places, keep posting there for now too.

Over time portions of their audience find their way onto nostr and begin interacting and zapping over here.

We’re seeing a similar thing with the #podcast crowd and #v4v. Podcasts that have done the traditional ad route are also adding value splits for lightning payments. Eventually the lightning incoming will grow and could replace some traditional ad space. #zapvertising
