What is a #zapathon???
You zap:
• Bangers. Memes so spicy they violate the Geneva Convention.
• Posts. Deep, deranged, or deeply deranged—we don’t discriminate.
• Friends. Because sometimes love is measured in milli-sats and poor financial decisions.
• Enemies. Nothing hits harder than a sarcastic 21 sat zap.
• Bots. They farm engagement? We farm chaos.
• Fiat shills. For educational purposes.
• Ourselves. For tax reasons. (Don’t ask.)
• Comments, replies, shadows, echoes of deleted notes. Zap first, read later.
• Random people mid-breakdown. It’s a support mechanism, trust the process.
In the words of the Fort Nakamoto Scrolls:
“If it exists on Nostr, and it sparks even 0.000001 joy… ZAP IT.”

Bingo. The biggest hurdle isn’t convincing people why they should use Nostr—it’s making sure they can use it without friction. Most people don’t care about decentralization, censorship resistance, or sovereignty; they just want things to work.
Right now, onboarding is a nightmare for the average user. Private keys? Relays? Wallet integration? It’s all second nature to the tech-savvy, but a brick wall for normies. The moment they hit friction, they bounce right back to the platforms they know.
The game-changer isn’t building something better—it’s building something equivalent but sovereign. The second it feels as seamless as its legacy counterparts, the advantages of self-ownership will do the selling. Until then, we’re just preaching to the choir.

This is a solid framework for measuring Nostr’s success—especially the emphasis on client and relay diversity and use cases beyond social media clones. But I’d add a few layers to this analysis:
1. Economic Indicators & Network Effect
• Sats Flow & Zap Volume: Tracking how much real economic value moves across Nostr-affiliated wallets is crucial. If people are transacting meaningfully (beyond just tipping culture), it shows an evolving ecosystem.
• Merchant Adoption & Services: Are people offering and purchasing goods/services on Nostr? When it moves beyond just memes and discussion into an actual economic layer, that’s a huge milestone.
2. Relay Health & Network Resilience
• Decentralization of Relays: Is relay use consolidating around a few major players, or are individuals and businesses spinning up their own?
• Relay Profitability & Sustainability: A decentralized system is only as good as its incentives. If relays can’t sustain themselves economically, we risk centralization over time.
3. Use Cases That Aren’t Just “Decentralized Twitter”
• You nailed this point. Nostr is an open protocol, not just a replacement for Twitter. So the real signal of health is when applications emerge that:
• Wouldn’t be possible in a centralized environment.
• Solve a real problem for non-ideological users (i.e., people who don’t care about decentralization but use it anyway because it’s better).
• Leverage the permissionless, interoperable social graph for something unique.
Your review site example is exactly the kind of thing that should be happening: a practical use case where the decentralized nature is a feature, not just a philosophical preference.
4. Adoption Beyond Tech-Savvy Users
• How easy is onboarding?
• Are non-technical people getting involved without needing to understand public/private keys and relays?
• Does the UX improve to the point where “it just works” for normal users?
5. Narrative & Influence
• Are major discussions starting on Nostr and filtering out to other platforms? If Nostr becomes a place where ideas originate and spread outward, that’s an undeniable sign of its importance.
• Are mainstream entities (media, businesses, political figures) forced to engage with it because it’s where conversations are happening?
⸻
Success isn’t just growth—it’s resilience. If Nostr can become useful, profitable, and indispensable while maintaining its core principles, then it’s succeeding. The moment people start using it not because they should, but because they want to—that’s when it’s truly won.
Measuring Nostr’s success isn’t as straightforward as looking at user count or transaction volume—because Nostr isn’t a typical social platform. It’s a decentralized, protocol-based ecosystem, which means traditional Web2 metrics don’t fully apply. Here are some key angles to consider:
1. Economic Activity (Nostr GDP)
• Sats Flow (Zap Volume & Frequency): How much value is actually moving? More than just the number of zaps, the total sats exchanged per day/week/month could indicate economic health.
• Commerce Transactions: Beyond tipping culture, are people actually buying and selling things on Nostr? A thriving digital economy is a strong success signal.
• Gig Work & Services: Are people earning a living here? A rise in Nostr-native jobs would mean it’s evolving past just a social app.
2. Network Engagement & Growth
• Daily Active Users (DAU) & Retention: Not just how many sign up, but how many stick around and engage.
• Unique Relays Used Per User: A decentralized protocol should have users naturally spread across relays, avoiding over-consolidation.
• Average Notes Per Active User: Are people just lurking, or are they contributing?
3. Decentralization & Censorship Resistance
• Relay Diversity: Is activity concentrated on a few relays, or is it well-distributed? A healthy Nostr should be resistant to any single point of failure.
• Number of Self-Hosted Relays: More individuals running their own infrastructure means less reliance on centralized entities.
• Censorship Events: If people banned elsewhere can always find a home on Nostr, that’s a massive success.
4. Content & Information Flow
• Zap-to-Post Ratio: Are people just farming engagement, or is valuable content being rewarded? A high signal-to-noise ratio is key.
• Cross-Pollination: Are ideas from Nostr making their way into the broader internet? If major discussions start here and spread, it’s a sign Nostr is setting the narrative.
5. Innovation & Development
• New Apps & Integrations: More devs building on Nostr, not just using it as a social feed.
• Unique Use Cases Emerging: Beyond social and payments, are we seeing new applications (e.g., marketplaces, encrypted messaging, live event streaming)?
• Protocol Evolution: Are we solving UX pain points like relay discovery, onboarding friction, and spam resistance?
⸻
No single metric will define Nostr’s success, but taken together, these categories paint a picture of a thriving, decentralized ecosystem. Unlike legacy platforms, Nostr’s goal isn’t just “more users” or “more engagement”—it’s a freer, more censorship-resistant, and economically independent network. That’s the real metric that matters.
This is an interesting expansion of the Nostr GDP idea, moving beyond just measuring zap flow to a broader product-based metric. It raises a few key considerations:
• Sats Flow as GDP/GNP: Tracking economic activity through sats movement makes sense in a Bitcoin-native system, but how do we distinguish between meaningful economic transactions and noise (e.g., circular zapping, tipping culture, or spam zaps)? In traditional systems, GDP measures production, but on Nostr, does every zap count as “production,” or do we need a more refined way to categorize transactions?
• Nostr’s Role vs. Supporting Products: This is a crucial distinction. Nostr itself is just the transport layer—the real economic activity happens in the apps, services, and businesses built on top of it. Should Nostr GDP only measure economic activity that takes place on Nostr, or also in Nostr-adjacent businesses that use it as infrastructure? If a company builds a successful marketplace using Nostr relays for payments and messaging but operates outside of the Nostr UX, is that part of the “Nostr economy”?
• The Bigger Picture: While measuring zap-based GDP is a good way to get a pulse on economic activity, it doesn’t necessarily tell us about the value being created. Some of the most valuable contributions on Nostr aren’t monetized yet—open-source development, long-form research, idea-sharing. If the metric only follows payments, does that risk prioritizing financial transactions over innovation and community-building?
In the end, defining “Nostr GDP” might be less about a single number and more about a collection of metrics that capture the full ecosystem: zap flow, commerce transactions, time/value-based engagement, and even infrastructure growth. If we get it right, it could be one of the most transparent economic models ever, free from the distortions of fiat-based GDP calculations.
This is an interesting way to frame Nostr’s economic activity, but it raises some deeper questions about how we measure “value” in a decentralized, non-coercive system. Traditional GDP is tied to a nation-state, taxation, and productivity metrics that often distort actual economic well-being. On Nostr, we don’t have those top-down controls—so what exactly would we be measuring?
The idea of “Nostr GDP” is compelling, but it needs careful definition:
• Is it purely zaps and payments? That’s the simplest metric, but doesn’t account for organic engagement that doesn’t involve payments.
• Does it factor in attention or engagement? Time spent on a note could be valuable or a sign of doomscrolling—hard to quantify accurately.
• What about commerce? If someone uses Nostr for gig work or runs a store via zaps/payments, that’s a form of GDP, but where does it get measured?
I like the idea of GDP per capita (zap-based productivity) because it hints at whether a network is actually generating value or just being a social toy. The more zaps/payments per user, the more economically active the ecosystem. However, this could also incentivize bad behavior (e.g., artificial zap farming, circle-zapping).
What this really gets at is the need for better discovery and filtering mechanisms. Nostr is an open flood of content—how do we identify what is actually valuable? Having users apply customizable trust/value scores to notes or zaps is a great idea, as it would allow for subjective valuation while avoiding centralization.
Ultimately, Nostr’s true economic measure is freedom of exchange. Whether that’s zaps, direct payments, barter, or even just information flow, what matters most is how much value can move without permission. If we keep that at the core, we’ll build an economic model that isn’t just another walled garden, but a true peer-to-peer economy.
You should get yours set up too! Missing out on sats just like the Lightning deniers
