What is nostr:npub15xd2mmjnh3caykh77djsv73e0zkrp42jp5mwerx8f4m6su40wdvss7t3l3 ?

It's hard to say.

It's a new kind of social app, that's part NomadList, part Meetup, part Instagram, Google Places and Trip Advisor.

Some might say "this is not a good thing" bc people don't know how to categorise it, which is a fair criticism, but I'd argue, there was also no way to really describe Facebook or Instagram when they first came onto the scene.

Building something NEW requires that you discover what you are along the way. Especially if you're trying to fundamentally transform an industry. If you just want to build another widget or app - sure - it helps to solve a very narrow problem, and position it in a way that's very easy to relate back to something that exists.

But...if your aim is to do something both new, and transformative, you have to push boundaries and build things in a way that makes more intuitive sense, than logical sense.

That being said, it's got to be done in stages, with each stage delivering some form of very clear & precise value.

This week, we'll roll out the first version of Satlantis at nostr:npub167n5w6cj2wseqtmk26zllc7n28uv9c4vw28k2kht206vnghe5a7stgzu3r which is basically a "City Home Page" derived from social content on Nostr.

Anyone can follow a city, post content about anything in a city, search for & join events, find people in that city, connect with them directly, learn about a city (scores, stats, gallery) and see a dynamic feed with content people are posting on OTHER Nostr apps (if they hashtag the city).

In the coming weeks and months, we'll be rolling out rich user profiles, a feature rich merchant map with some really cool review & content features, and much more.

Stay tuned.

Great start, lots of potential ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’œ

Although, it took me a while to successfully sign up with my browser extension (nos2x on Kiwi Browser Android) and after being lucky enough to manage to sign up, I couldn't find out how to creat a new place by myself and couldn't figure out what to contribute and how to engage ๐Ÿ˜‰

Some feature ideas to build engagement:

- integrated with on site Bitcoin meetup calendars, e.g. https://einundzwanzig.space/meetups

- integrate with map e.g. btcmap.org to find local BTC merchants

- "been there" option for locations, to build a travel diary, e.g https://findpenguins.com/

- local tourism with Bitcoin payment

--> Get your guide marketplace

--> Airbnb for Bitcoiner

I love the direction nostr:npub15xd2mmjnh3caykh77djsv73e0zkrp42jp5mwerx8f4m6su40wdvss7t3l3 is paving, because travel, places and people are at the heart and Bitcoin is just the facilitator bringing it all together.

Keep going!
