Murray Rothbard spent decades arguing that voluntary cooperation could replace state coercion in every domain of human life. Critics called it utopian theorizing. Nostr proves them wrong. In this deep dive, I analyze how the protocol implements Rothbardian principles, from keypairs as homesteaded digital property to relay markets as spontaneous order to zaps as demonstrated preference. If you've ever wondered what anarcho-capitalism looks like when it actually ships code, Nostr is the answer.
