Replying to Avatar M0053

As a Bitcoin old timer I would say there are several reasons.

The various waves of bitcoiners that seem to come, perhaps with each cycle seem to have different styles, value and priorities than older holders. So partly just a culture thing.

Some of the discussions, and even fights can seem futile (I have seen threads on "wen bigger blocks" and "Bitcoin is a failure because it has a transparent Blockchain" just this morning). Some OGs might not want to relive and rehash those.

And then of course there are the opsec challenges.

I agree, but at the same time as a 2011 bitcoinner those are my reasons. Though I still like nostr. Love it. It's just going to take time. People haven't even figured out what it is yet honestly they think it's a Twitter replacement. And it's not it's a tcp/ip protocol layer that is going to do a lot of things that make more sense on a fundamentally ephemeral layer then the monolithic things that we've built so far on top of tcp/ip.

To that point people don't understand Bitcoin either. Just watch Roger ver's recent interview. If anybody should understand Bitcoin it's him. There's plenty of people here who believe he's still preaching gospel. And they don't get it either in my opinion.

All takes time.
