Let's say some Ethereum heads built a decentralised, censorship resistant social media protocol. It's not on the blockchain or anything, they're just really into Ethereum. They post about the price of Ethereum all the time tho. 70% of users are called something or other dot Eth. They say Ethereum slogans a lot, like A LOT. Especially when the price of Ethereum goes up or down drastically.

Would you join? #asknostr 🤔

(This is fairly close to how outsiders see nostr imo).

*****( In this thought experiment nostr doesn't exist)

Shit, even if Nostr did exist I'd join. I'd build a bridge. I'm not the right person for this question though.

Why yes I do have a Warpcast but I don’t really use it lol

Warpcast/farcaster whatever u wanna call it

Good point. No. I wouldn’t join. But to be fair. I joined nostr because of the bitcoin community.

If it were the best decentralized, censorship resistant social media platform available... then yes. I would join.

I mean, that's why I'm here on #Nostr.

+ laser eyes, I see a lot of potential for a grassroots journalists thing but apparently it's not happening (yet)

I would join for the protocol’s core attributes (the same reasons I joined NOSTR) and engage largely outside of Ethereum. But would Ethereum heads really build one and would there be a CEO? Seems too paradoxical. But I agree NOSTR is very pro Bitcoin, but considering we have zaps, and how the protocol mirrors bitcoin’s core ethos, I can see why it is - they’re almost linked. And like Bitcoin, NOSTR is a journey of discovery, learning, growth and adoption. Will take some time for both to achieve mass adoption.

haha, no way. and yes, i see your point.

Nostr is a bitcoin meetup after 3 years.

What’s your favourite social media thing..?

Not sure I like social media lol

🤙🏽😆
