This is the natural order of things. In a free and voluntary society a natural aristocracy forms automatically as the top performers rise to the top. I don't see it as a bad thing. Find the thing that you're good at and become an aristocrat.
For those NOT attending #Nostrica, this is how cliques and VIP groups start to form on budding technologies. I have seen it time and again across several platforms. Those who can afford to attend or are connected versus those who have to work the lowly fiat mines just to barely cover rent. Watch as these groups create exclusivity and you are left behind. It is a sad sad reality that always happens. I love the idea of Nostr but can already see it happening. Maybe there will even soon be a relay for Nostrica only attenders? I talk about the sad reality of online cliques and VIP groups and their history in my substack post from last month. https://thesilvermage.substack.com/p/state-of-the-internet-by-a-digital
