welcome, what client are you using?
Here’s the series of events that led me to Nostr, in chronological order:
- tried to pay for X's blue checkmark but was unable to do so without linking my bank account, instead of paying with a card.
- read the terms of connecting my bank account and realized I would have to agree to share my account number, routing number, interest rate, recent transaction history, etc. No way I was agreeing to that, so I closed the tab.
- opened a YT tab to watch some random videos, and a conversation between nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx and nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m at Nostriga popped up on my feed.
i had never heard of Nostr before clicking on that video. It took me all of two minutes to go from typing the name 'Nostr' into my browser to opening an account.
