Things we use everyday that probably won’t exist in 10 years:

- phone numbers

- credit/debit cards

What else?

I WENT VIRAL ON INSTAGRAM AND THIS IS MY REFLECTION:

There have been 600k views, 40k likes, and 3k comments thus far.

Not because I wanted to. I was walking into an event, and this guy came up to me to interview me. He asked me what my ideal girlfriend would be like, to which I responded:

"I want a woman who respects roles and wants to have lots of children." Then I make it clear that green-haired lefties didn't stand a chance.

Now, I am receiving thousands of comments from leftists who are criticizing me and sharing their opinions about my persona and ideas.

While it doesn't bother me, I find it intriguing and disheartening that the content that receives the most engagement frequently elicits anger and criticism, often overlooking valuable content and those who genuinely contribute their unique perspectives.

I have dedicated thousands of hours to research and hundreds more to developing my ideas, all with the goal of enabling others to access the knowledge I have worked so hard to acquire, which I believe is so critical that it spreads.

I would rather have a thousand followers who respect and value my work than hundreds of thousands of mediocre ones who follow me solely because of my appearance or luxurious lifestyle.

Traditional social networks discuss people and what they do, which I find mediocre and unproductive.

I want NOSTR to be a place where we can elevate the conversation, exchange ideas and arguments, strive for excellence, and break free from the mediocrity that envelops us.

I will continue to improve in every aspect of myself and keep doing my best at my work, knowing that I am in the right place with the right people at the right time.

Nostr or mediocrity!

I came to nostr because I was getting lonely. I was social media sober since covid. I couldn't really connect with people even before the divisiveness of the Cov-19 propaganda. I didnt have any bitcoiners to talk.

good morning and pura vida, nostr! it's time to create notes and send zaps! 💜🫂🤙🏻

no man should work for what another man can print

no man should speak for what another man can censor

I spent another 100,000 sats on a zap-vertising experiment…

And I think I proved that advertising on Nostr actually works…

Here’s:

1️⃣ What I did

2️⃣ The results

3️⃣ What I learned

1️⃣ What I did:

I sent 4105 zaps over the course of 3 days for a total of 112,000 sats.

Each zap contained a link for a blog post:

zapvertising-experiment.carrd.co

My goal was to see if I could get a reasonable cost per click (CPC)…

2️⃣ The results:

During the campaign I had a total of 71 unique visitors to the page.

CPC was 1578 sats or $1.50 usd.

I also gained 245 followers from that campaign.

These CPCs are in line with other ad platforms which validates the overall concept for me.

3️⃣ What I learned / brain dump:

- Results were better than expected.

- I thought there might have been a bit of negative push back (however none received).

- There is a chance I am significantly underreporting and google analytics isn't picking everything up (surprised to see 3-4x the number of new followers vs. clicks 🤔)

- THERE IS SOMETHING HERE. I still don’t know exactly what the model looks like, how it scales, but there is something to be uncovered.

- Right now, this can’t be done at scale… in the future it could. I spent ~$100 and it took me multiple days. In the future there will be ways to allocate +$10,000 per day here. For context of where we are at right now, Nostr daily zap totals are around 750,000 sats - about $675 - see stats.nostr.band/ for that data)

- Something feels off with the format… simply paying someone and sending them a link… The p2p model feels right, but the format feels off.

More to come 🫡

Let me know your thoughts 👇

I used to suppress everything.

Felt like I had to in order to survive.

Parents didn’t care, friends didn’t care, girlfriends didn’t care.

Everyone was happy with me being a suppressed version of myself.

It was working for them and probably for me too.

One day it stopped working.

It became painful to be who I was “supposed” to be.

So I stopped suppressing things.

I started saying everything out loud.

This pissed a lot of people off.

The world shifted around me.

I lost relationships.

I made new ones.

People who respected me for who I actually was, not just who I was pretending to be.

Life is so much better now.

But it was painful for awhile.

My advice?

Break free.

That shits gonna stop working for you sooner or later.

Might as well be who you were meant to be.

GOOD MORNING NOSTR ☀️
