It doesn’t matter how we are perceived here… it’s an online protocol.
Bitcoiners gathering together in an expensive city at an exclusive mansion party wearing $1000’s in luxury clothing & accessories while broadcasting it online to people who (many) can’t think to dream of owning a whole coin is such an unnecessary flex.
It does matter. Social networks need people to want to come here for slight growth
What does the protocol have to do with it? There are many
Maybe? Idk. I don’t really care what people think about me being a bitcoiner on Nostr… it’s the internet and everyone has an opinion. What they think isn’t really my business.
People will come to #nostr when they want to or when they realize how important it is… it’s not my responsibility to curtail who I am or what I post solely for its growth.
The Bitcoin cult and worship will definitely be a turn off
There has to be some balance otherwise it will get stale here
I think it’s all about perspective. Every platform I’ve ever used has groups of people that care about stuff others don’t. I remember when YouTube felt so unnecessary because it was Scarlet taking a tumble and the chocolate rain kid… now it’s like one of the most important platforms that we have.
We’re still so early. People are working really hard to make #nostr more robust. That takes time but it will happen and all those who left from lack of balance will surely return.
