On the internet, this is quite common. Most people on Nostr are currently bitcoiners, and they have great respect for developers (who usually have the largest number of followers). This is what we call authority. Building a reputation and growing on the platform takes time. Being decentralized, Nostr has an initial network effect that can be challenging: it’s hard to get interactions at first, and that’s okay. The key is to keep creating content.

If people see value in what you post, you will eventually gain followers and, in turn, monetize your content. The main difference between Nostr and other social networks is that your content won’t be deleted (if you run your own relay), you’ll have control over what you want to see, and you won’t be demonetized or shadowbanned. So, stay focused and keep producing.

By the way, if you don’t want to build your own authority, you can simply create highlights of content from the authorities in this ecosystem. There are countless podcasts within this niche, and by making strategic highlights, you have a great chance of growing very quickly.
