Haha not a weird question… iris is so random right? when I decided to create a nostr account that was transparent… I approached it at as the lowest common denominator user… I actually had heard about nostr sometime early mid summer.

At the time, I was about 4ish? years into contributing to another decentralized project… I feel differently about that project than I did in the beginning.

Nostr not having a native token appealed to me but I wanted to see the decentralization process from a different perspective… one where I didn’t have the position of privilege so to speak.

So, I approached nostr as I imagined my friends would… and that’s kind of how I ended up on iris… there’s more to that but that’s the gist

That's actually really cool to hear. When I heard about Nostr it was in late 2022 when Jack Dorsey mentioned it on Twitter and I was interested in it because it was different than other platforms like Mastodon (I have not been on that platform for a hot minute lol).

So fast forward to now I signed up about a couple weeks ago and I'm been loving it so far. Just meeting new people from around the world and who are also interested in #Bitcoin is amazing.

I've learned so much here and about #Bitcoin it's insane. I'm not going to lie but I was against Bitcoin until I started using zaps.

I love that you are enjoying it here! And I love that you have found yourself loving btc… the lightning network certainly has done wonders for adoption. That makes me happy to hear.

Nostr has done some very interesting things with integration and interoperability.

Thanks so much for the sweet words. You're a real one 🄰

The lightning network is a hidden gem to a ton of social media platforms.

I can only see #Nostr using it and I totally think other platforms should take notes. Just saying 😁.

Content Creators and Journalists and anyone who creates meaningful content would so benefit like independent musicians on #Nostr.

The internet of value is certainly upon us

Yeah it is 😁
