> Is nostr that ship ?
No, nostr have nothing todo with Bitcoin, it just a protocol explain to relays and clients how they should to communicate with each other.
Relays and clients, clients doesn't communicate with each other and the relays doesn't communicate with each other
Agree - from design standpoint there are only few similarities - eg public private key generation on local machine .. kinda inspiration ..
but I was alliding to #zaps ..
there is really no chance that eight billion people will have a bitcoin wallet ..but there is a good chance that everyone is (somehow) connected to nostr and thus has access to #zaps .. in a way , #nostr is the ship that carries the bitcoin to normies .. maybe 🤔
Nostr key pairs are not wallets, and not every client comes with a wallet, it's a feature in Primal. You have to get a LN address somehow, then add it to your metadata.
Can't I use my #bitcoin npub and nsec for #nostr ?
Yes, they use the same algorithm, which is secp256k1

So you see my point .. #nostr is an inspiration from #bitcoin .. may be we should ask Fiatjaf :-) ..
But again my point was that of reach .. #bitcoin reach is only to people who value and understand monetary assets .. social media reaches pretty much everyone :-)
