There is a 6-month decline of use here on #Nostr. We can do better. I care about this thing more than I should. I feel like Nostr is a crappy boyfriend—and I'm making excuses for him, like, "He's got so much potential!" So I keep staying. 🙄
We will get through this dark time of spam & low use. Nostr is strong enough to survive, if only for the 15,745 of us using it each day. But my fella can do so much better...
I just jumped back into legacy media journalism. There is no NEED for us to use Nostr today. But we're always one step away from the next "black swan" that would make this indispensible. Right now? This is trash to the vast majority. Too clunky to explain, too technical, too nerdy, too much #Bitcoin, too many wackadoos...it's just "too much."
But for those of us here daily, building, creating, and putting in the reps, there's another story.
I find success here for nostr:nprofile1qyt8wumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgtcppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qqs9avl6hmfcqrma3s3haa94c4h436skujtl44qvlht59hwhxksr8ngaflajl & nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj76n4deuxjmn8waskueewdaexwqg7waehxw309a4kummnw3ezumn9w468y6twv5hxxmmd8gurswpsqqsydzystv8gjd2gg8ph83ackvju4mk3nejxvzlefut9c0m8nwaz7qgk0gjyx as evidenced by being able to create a group solo mine with 7 EH.
I SAID SEVEN EXAHASH.
We didn't build that on Twitter/X. Or LinkedIn. It was the rabid fans of Nostr who helped us create Nostr's 1st #Bitcoin Mining #BlockParty.
Oh, but that's just Bitcoiners, you may say.
Ok, what about yoga? I started hosting #yogastr on nostr:nprofile1qyvhwumn8ghj76rfwejhgctvdvhxummnw3erztnrdakszrnhwden5te0dehhxtnvdakz7qpqz0lcg9p2v5nzg5fycxq0k56ze6snp42clmrafzqpn5w6u74v5x9qp804wm in September. People enjoy #OtherStuff. Folks love connecting with community even more.
What about local meetups? What about our #v4v side events in Las Vegas at the nostr:nprofile1qyxhwumn8ghj7cnjvghxjme0qyt8wumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgtcqypvlhmnnd80hwy7mh75mhkcgjtrzaw5jjgexzhr07fu8mguyedms7ydwvc3 Conference last month? What about meeting Nostriches IRL at events like nostr:nprofile1qy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uq36amnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wvf5hgcm0d9hx2u3wwdhkx6tpdshsqgzxkyxxvz3qfl2t02hp5alxdgunzq023gs8qa4cp8zdh7dlypnwquxxvd7u?
I will maintain that something *special* is happning here and I won't give up. But I won't stick my head in the sand and act like there aren't issues for us to tackle. We all have to do our part to make this better. Many of you work so hard at this and you know who you are. 🫡
I’m just here for the vibes
I’m in the same boat but it’s only a matter of time
Just went out rowing during the storm and holy shit it was stupid, cool and exhilirating. One of the crew members hair was stood up on its ends.
Yeah that’s good shit
I remember listening to a long detailed technical explanation whilst stoned and in the bath 😂
I am new here, so let me do a little #introduction . I am here because a friend nostr:nprofile1qqsqqx9hacelkffcgd3ecchzjtlvwq9xn2fmprhrwnzmm2t3exee2eqppemhxue69uhhjctzw5hx6ef0qyd8wumn8ghj7ur4wfshv6tyvyhxummnw3ezumrpdejz78c2hlx advised me to join, after being shadowed few times on my instagram account where I am sharing my way to health through Carnivore lifestyle.

alright nostr, hear me out.
the nostr community should raise funds together and buy a microcap public (non-shell) company to convert into a bitcoin treasury. there’s no better bitcoin native community on earth than the people regularly on nostr which naturally means you’d end up with the most diamond handed shareholder base of any public company.
i’ve done a lot of research on this and seriously think we should move fast. it’s not just about the btc treasury, it’s also a killer way to put nostr on the public markets, backed by bitcoin and based shareholders.
we could also go the otc route and grab a public shell on otcqb. way more cost-effective. only catch is converting from otcqb to nasdaq is a tougher climb but definitely can be done. just fyi, meta planet is on otcqb right now.

I think that’s fucking spot on, good quote.
Refreshing to be corrected on grammar, haven’t had that in a hot minute.

As a Bitcoin maxi and a retailer, I will NOT be using Square if it confuses sats and bitcoins. Why does nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m always have to be like this?

You can ask this GPT ANYTHING about the LOCK Protocol to better understand what it is, how it works, and why it's an invention:
