I completely agree with you on the purple pill —> orange pill connection. But even existing bitcoiners are reluctant to spend their sats like they would fiat. And I don’t blame anyone for saving sats. But it severely limits the viability of nostr as place where real economic activity can occur.

Yep. Spot on.
Ofc everyone should stack sats. I also have not against it, and tbh I don’t have the right to judge anyone with that. But, you know, if we want to make Bitcoin the money of future, we have to spend some sats to create a circular economy. People from countries like El Salvador, Guatemala, Uganda, Argentina and Turkey (hopefully 🤞) got this necessity more quickly than rest of the world. I got messages to Turkish Blink channels from Nigeria to participate in Blink circles challenges. I don’t get if these people get it, why plebs from 1st world countries wouldn’t.
I agree that people should do it to grow the circular economy, but human nature cannot be forced into it. We are just going to have to be patient.
