This is a reminder to my future self, 10 years from now.

Today, people think:

- Nostr is just another social media app.

- Nostr can’t scale.

- Who’s gonna run the Relays?!?!?

- We haven’t found the killer app for mainstream adoption.

- It might only stay a Bitcoiner echo chamber.

But to my future self if you’re reading this, remember—this was a wild time and all of us are having a lot of fun.

Whatever Nostr became, it’s already pretty damn cool. 🫡

Nostr will never scale because niggaz aint doing shit to improve relays

What about relay.tools?

a few days ago I was talking to a friend who isn’t a bitcoiner or even in the tech space about nostr, and she said one of her dates mentioned it to her!

we’re getting there 🔥

Damn 👀

i know 👀 i screamed

I literally did this on the first date

no 😂

nvmd it’s not you hahaha

Aye .. yes 🙌 the more people on board the more node and the wider the network 🛜

🎯

Nostr is great for people who want to experiment and improve how it works. No-one rules the platform, proper freedom.

#Nostr is not what Nostr will be in 10 years time… Trust the process…

Nostr will change, and you too. 🫂

Great idea, and great post!!

#Nostr is what we make of it 💪💩✨

Open time stamped this for ya.

Thank you sir 🫡

Crazy how dope Nostr is now. Can’t imagine what it’ll look like at Block height 2,100,000

In 10yrs, the bots will remember this note

> We haven’t found the killer app for mainstream adoption.

Not surprised. Wallets and BTC talk everywhere, lol. Most peeps here are too deep in the bubble... I suck at webdev, but someone else may not. Then, there is marketing. There is a lot of work - and someone has to do it - and it should _not_ be a coiner.

idk if yall forgot, but many "mainstream" ppl are weirded out by "crypto" and "bitcoin" x). ("mainstream" defined as someone who watches the medium average news shows and alike - very generic, very "influenced" you might say.)

" It might only stay a Bitcoiner echo chamber. "

let´s hope

🫂

Yeah,!

I used to wonder if Bitcoin was of any worth in my apocalyptic view of the world and if it was going to be able to fulfill the prophecies and such. And if it was going to be able to give me de power I wanted.

Fuck all that. Whó cares, you moron! You are having great time, meeting nice people, seeing it grow, tending the garden of ideas, memeing hard. Lowered your time preference, became sovereign.

That is pretty damn awesome and a high value on its own.

I’ve also heard them say it’s boring
