I think I get your point. Let me know if I'm off base.

Nostr as we are currently using it, is merely a promotion and marketing approach to a new tool. The clients are using a format and architecture that we are already familiar with.

True value and innovation will be when #nostr is one component of a larger solution that solves many problems.

Satoshi leveraged the work of past cryptographers and the cypherpunks to innovate Bitcoin.

I expect something similar to take place over time with nostr, clients, value transfers, and likely many new, unforseen contributions.

Or maybe I just consume to much Jeff Booth content.

Time will tell.
