Be real
What do you know what’s real
How do you know what’s real
You won’t.
WHAT:
Create bonds & relationships.
The term "Popular" will not mean what it meant on legacy platforms. The NOSTR Protocol is an identity and relationship system not a corporate product.
HOW:
Zap sats even as low as 1 sat a zap to prove value.
Talk to people via audio/video with apps like nostr:nprofile1qqsv83ejztakekydrtxp3a5yn3nqc34re9et7knkd3vn35rynlwuklqpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsqhf6yx and nostr:nprofile1qqsp8luyzs4x2f3y2yjvrq8m2dpvagfs64v0a3753qqe68dw02k2rzspz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszrnhwden5te0dehhxtnvdakz7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yh8qunfd4skctnwv46z7c268yq.

Collaboration in work or recreationally with others.
Is there a nostr plumber or handy person out there?
Absolutely, however those are location based services so you might find offering bitcoin to your plumber easier
It feels funny to offer bitcoin to strangers. Like bartering.

NOSTR is one of the most powerful tools there is if you embrace it for what it is.
Offer to do things you’re already doing, just for Bitcoin. I do artwork, and it’s worked out several times!
Meeting people in real life works smooth like butter.
It’s refreshing to shake hands with folks from Nostr, even if you’ve seen their photos on here it just helps to see that we’re just regular people, all with different skill sets.

We both spoke on the Artist panel.
More important, we spoke about our experiences dealing with epilepsy and having seizures. To this day, our hands are still shaking! 🫨🤝
nostr:npub16e3vzr7dk2uepjcnl85nfare3kdapxge08gr42s99n9kg7xs8xhs90y9v6 and I are the two most awesome tattooed artists with epilepsy on Nostr, no doubt about it
But AI bots can endlessly regurgitate and get paid in Bitcoin.
Then why are you even here?
I guess because much smaller network effect means less incentive for bots. So there's currently less slop than X-- but that only remains true if Nostr remains niche.
The same as in real life, appeal to a larger base of people.
The opposite of a great idea is another great idea. Be reviled by a large base of people on nostr.
Give more than you take
Share your story, converse with other nostriches on relevant topics, be cool, and be active… unless you were a celebrity outside the internet before joining nostr… and then unless you stay active on Nostr, people won’t pay attention because no algorithms are going to constantly recycle your previous content, so it will disappear.
