First, our nostr:nprofile1qythwumn8ghj7ct5d3shxtnwdaehgu3wd3skuep0qyg8wumn8ghj7mn09eehgu3wvdez7qpqp0xmesqhftf7ga2v2hzdzz44ua059e70z7d9htur240p24y3a5xswa8lcc account gets suspended from X, just three days before the January 2025 event. No explanation, despite multiple inquiries.

Fortunately we already had Nostr. And we kept posting updates there throughout the conference.

Then, after much internal debate, the organizing team decides to start a new X account, to promote the 2026 conference to the widest audience possible...

We even committed the cardinal sin of joining Facebook, Instagram and (shock, horror!!!) TikTok.

To that end, we appointed a social media manager: nostr:nprofile1qythwumn8ghj7enfd36x2u3wdehhxarj9emkjmn9qyxhwumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmvqqsyee4th45d4dhflhmw36v3928p97d488s83335c4dfhlefjjj3fhg7qj5z0, who's from Tanzania, to get the word out as far as possible. We want new people (not yet into Bitcoin) to attend the conference.

And as soon as we did.... X gets blocked in Tanzania.

Not too mention, Kwek's favorite social media is Nostr. He has more followers here, than anywhere else...

So, what's the moral of the story here?

You tell me.
