I agree here. Conferences are extremely expensive. It's why I'm not in Amsterdam now nor why I'm going to Nostrasia. That said, I am extremely grateful to receive funding this week to attend more conferences next year to help purple pill more people. I am going to work on my message and do my best to maximize these outcomes as you said. Thank you.

i love that, and good on whomever who sponsored you. I've never met you but from what I gather here this past year, its easy to see how passionate you are and with a very approachable personality. Def a great asset to the community =)
I think if you are tackling 2 types of conferences :
Bitcoin
- its easier to pass on the message. You don't have to explain too hard on why nostr matters. But it helps to figure out how people can make this as part of their lifestyle - so its a steps further into building communities, contents, find people who are passionate in certain things (even topics) and help grow that. you may not be able to dive into everything but you would know people who knows people you can make introductions to.
non-Bitcoin
- the narrative will be different - depending on the group. and highly lies on why censorship-free environment is important. Would be harder - but its getting the message out there
Its like sales pipeline - non bitcoin will be right on top of the funnel, with lower probability of converting - but they have heard the message - and if they were to read abt Nostr again on media or have their friends speak about it - it will slowly stick. With bitcoin, its in the middle of the pipeline, higher probability of converting, but they have other needs.
Eventually you would see it all converging and that would be a beautiful outcome. Good luck, I have faith you will rock this!
Same here, I skipped Amsterdam and Nostrasia because I think the ROI for nostr would have been lower than staying at home and working on the projects I'm contributing to.
