Observation:

On Nostr I follow a bunch of indie hackers building open source stuff creating immense value, most notably in nostr and bitcoin. They’re all grant funded.

On X I follow a bunch of indie hackers building proprietary stuff creating immense value, most notably in AI. Many are making insane monthly recurring revenues (MRR) and are all bootstrapped/self-funded.

Question:

How do we create a culture of open source indie hackers in bitcoin/nostr that are making self-sustaining MRR?

The value in proprietary software is in its ability to monopolise a given space. Open source cannot monopolise, by design.

Been thinking alot about dual licensing for backend services. So customers can either buy the managed service or self-host.
