My wish is that they learned about Bitcoin before coming to Nostr

why not the opposite?

They will value Nostr more if they get Bitcoin first.

If they understand Bitcoin first, they will understand/value the decentralized nature of Nostr more, because they will understand that governments and centralized platforms might not have their best interests in mind.

They will never value a solution to a problem they don't know they have

I get your sentiment, thank you.

In my opinion one can value decentralisation, peer2peer and signal-over-noise without the need to understand money/bitcoin.

They will value it more when they realize the other systems were actively working against them and lying to them.

That's how I see it.

I've felt the pain they can produce and that's why I appreciate Bitcoin and Nostr a lot more.

It's literally helping people regain their freedom.

NOSTR and BTC adoption happens when we can explain the benefits without the need to explain the old, broken FIAT world.

I am still trying myself out to find good explanations, its not smooth yet.

That's the thing: you're trying to explain solutions, not benefits..

Idk, 4 years of hardly getting people into Bitcoin or Nostr has me a bit disappointed in people I guess..

Nostr actively sabotages itself and Bitcoin

But the next 4 years should be better, now that people are waking up to the problem

There might be answers in "Time and The Soul," by Jacob Needleman.

Thank you, might check it out later

You're welcome.

I wish I did

You're still fresh?
