why does it bother you? Technologies get discovered when the get discovered. Can't change the past.
That's really borthers me, everything is around us, why :
Should I wait for satoshi nakamoto to invent #bitcoin in 2009
Should I wait for nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 to invent #nostr in 2022
Should I wait for OpenAI, Bard etc to invent AI in 2023

For example, #nostr is a very simple idea and the protocol has been existing more than a decade and nobody noticed it. Also, I think the invention of #nostr should come before the blockchain due to simplicity.
Speaking with blockchain technology, it was there before #bitcoin for decades and again nobody noticed it!
