Being someone who got into bitcoin after joining Nostr has been fun.

My main goal for joining was the interest in how nostr could be a safe haven for Iran, which is still what I try to work on everyday with my friends in Iran.

Learning about bitcoin was just a major plus :)

Respect!

Keep up the good work! , spread pura vida 🫂

Glad to have you amongst the psychopaths!

😊

Admirations!

I have been to Tehran on some business delegation 10ish years ago and it stayed in my heart forever.

I have also scratched the surface of Zoroastrianism and I do believe that the land and people of Iran have to be freed for the sake of world and humanity evolution in the right direction.

Keep up and let’s hope the change will come and we all can be proud of small things we have done in the right direction.

Hi!!

Wonderful that you know so much. Everything you said was perfect. I’m Zoroastrian, it’s hard to be that there anywhere but Yazd right now.

Nowruz Mubarak

Ah and it is Nowruz!

Nowruz Mubarak to you too :)

The road that led me to dig into Zoroastrianism was through Sufism and I believe that actually the Sufism started within the Zoroastrianism and when Persia fell, the Sufis were the one that were preserving the original faith, mimicking into other religions depending on the region.

I don't know anything about modern Zoroastrianism but I guess the truth is the same in every aspect of life.

Good thoughts, good words, good deeds is so powerful actually!

Guys, it works! She is now one of us!

Any good local Iranian accounts/sources to follow here on nostr already? I'm curious to understand better what's happening there.

I have friends on here that are in Iran but they don’t want their account’s to be publicized just yet.

Safety first, please advise them to always connect here in Damus using Tor.

They don’t use Damus!!! And always using a VPN,

What is a good TOR client for IOS that allows Damus to work?

How does the Global work on Tor? Is it too slow?

I use Orbot, and yes it is so slow.

If you want to use Tor with a VPN, ProtonVPN offers this, this can be practical but forget anonymity if you are doing this, since all your traffic will be routed through your VPN servers

So can I assume that Express is a waist of time and money?

Thanks! You also mentioned TOR. I still occasionally use the Onion Browser, do you have a better recommendation to try?

Tor Browser is the official client, and it’s the best I think.

The only thing bad with TOR and VPN's is that you will have to do a CAPTCHA for more websites

That’s my subconscious talking about Damus instead of Nostr, because it’s the client I use the most. 😅

VPNs do not provide anonymity, they only shift trust to your VPN provider, and hide your traffic from your ISP.

Tor is what should be used if your friends are looking for anonymity

Here is a useful link to see if you need a VPN or Tor for your usage :

Thank you for this. Sending this to them now.

Perfect ! Wishing them a lot of strength and courage

I couldn’t be happier to read this. Nostr is the tree you can hang onto. Bitcoin is the roots that make the tree as strong as it is.

Welcome to the family.

<3 thank you

Feeling the same though I've been in the community for many years...

Kudos 🙌🤙🏻

Nice to read stories like that 😊
