Ok, as a non-technical, old simple truck driver trying to drive down this Nostr rabbit hole, I have discovered new paths that may brighten my future. I just set this up! Is this acceptable?

Gary Gensler repeats that Bitcoin is not a security and that "You now have a way to buy into (bitcoin) through ETFs"

Thanks Gary, but we’ve had a better way to hold bitcoin for years now – its free, safer and better

Its called a bitcoin wallet

Here’s why you should use one 👇

Bitcoin wallets are secured through unhackable encryption.

Banks are imperfect stores of value, requiring a money printer as a backstop for imperfect security. Bank funds are stolen from hackers regularly, yet bitcoin wallets have never been hacked 🙅

Executive Order 6102 reminds us that banks will aid the government in seizing financial assets.

Banks took your gold once and if the government asks them they’ll take your bitcoin deposits!

Bitcoin wallets have more security than banks yet they are FREE!

Paying someone to hold your bitcoin will actually force you to part with a large amount of sats over time, resulting in a large value lost over time.

Compounding fees significantly limit your investment returns

Insane 🤯

Growing Nostr is hard. Not because we don't have the tools, but because it requires the hard work of many of us, not just the few. Decentralization is great, however this means that no centralized growth team is going to step in and do the work that's needed. We'll have to rely on a multitude of people to accomplish this. These people will be cultivating and nurturing Nostr's growing ecosystem. They're seeking out unique communities, on-boarding new users, and educating them on the tools at hand, so that new users can create their own spaces on Nostr.

These have been initiatives of mine since the beginning days here. I love building communities, helping people use technology, and speaking about my passions.

Many people across Nostr are working on similar initiatives, trying to #grownostr and foster community. nostr:npub1hz5alqscpp8yjrvgsdp2n4ygkl8slvstrgvmjca7e45w6644ew7sewtysa is one of them. We spoke at extent last week about her current project. She volunteered at the Nostr Booth that I organized at nostr:npub167n5w6cj2wseqtmk26zllc7n28uv9c4vw28k2kht206vnghe5a7stgzu3r a few months ago, got purple pilled in the process, and is now planning on doing similar initiatives at three Latin American conferences coming up soon.

I had a conversation with the organizer of LaBitConf in Prague, who expressed a strong interest in having a Nostr presence at his upcoming conference. He asked that I replicate the same level of involvement he witnessed in Prague, including a booth, speakers, panels, and more. He clearly recognized the significance of Nostr and was eager to feature it prominently at his event. Unfortunately, I had to decline, as it’s not feasible for me to attend every conference. However, this is where the strength of the Nostr community comes in—others can step up and make it happen.

This is what Tanja is doing! Check out her project.
