I don’t know how someone can be hardcore Bitcoin and NOT hardcore Nostr. It almost makes me question their core values and whether they’re in this space for sincere reasons (beyond NGU reasons). But I know we are very early with Nostr and maybe it’s just me. Anyone else feeling the same way lately?
Meh too much to expect at this time.
I’d say the average is ~5 years from first commits to wide-spread adoption. Git was introduced in 2005, and didn’t really break out in a big way until 2010-2012. Linux was early 90s, and didn’t really break out until the dot-com era. First web browser, HTTP and HTML was 1990. First real breakout was about 1995.
So if you’re seeing exponential adoption curves <5 years into a new protocol and/or new open source technology, you’re doing pretty great!
Agreed. Many protocols die just as fast. Replaced by a better? version.
