Nostr vs. Bitcoin Github star history
Is this a fair comparison? What causes the next vertical phase? BTC bull market? Current apps get better? New apps/use cases emerge?

Both nostr-tools and strfry have less stars than the NIPs, that's the inversion to watch for, because they are what provide actual utility
Specs are meaningless without implementations, particularly nostr specs where they're generalized json and websocket schemas that are indistinguishable from every other app on the Internet
its not even genarlized json (that would be powerful), it's a string with meta data
Yea and I actually recall someone making the point it should have been binary
Ultimately it's the implementations that make the rules, the idea of bouncing signed data off webservers is as old as the web itself... Nostr just made it simple for midwits to understand so they could feel like contributors... that came at the cost of a larp army obsessed with retarded specs, not implementing shit that actually works
Nostr can only succeed if there's a broadly useful SDK, which imo has to have commercial motives
Could well be. The NIPs have become a dire devX.
