I see the creation of nostr the same way I see the American founding: based on incoherent, problematic ideas from a heterogenous group of founders; full of structural flaws; a hasty response to abuse of authority - but the seed of a movement that could change the course of history.
Bitcoin, in contrast, I think is much more pure, both technically and ideologically, and has the chance not only to change the course of history, but to define an epoch.
The main difference being if there is an Alexander Hamilton among us I'm pretty sure he's NGMI
I agree, except probably we disagree about which epoch Bitcoin defines
👀 elaborate
I view Bitcoin as the ultimate fiat token
(pun intended)
Depending on how things go, both could be equally as important…
But without #bitcoin, #nostr relays can’t economically survive in a censorship-resistant way.
I have thought about Misty's structural flaws but I can't really think of anything that I would have done better.
