I’m going to report on the #bitcoin event #surfinbitcoin in Biarritz France …

Only on #nostr 👀🔥🔥🤗

That’s a good news !

It’s great time to build here on #nostr !! nostr:note1lwg0a2nlw0nr43yrhhj8y2cewdmerlr98urvsw2ygpph9xrr8hrs5q5ljw

#nostrfr y a-t-il un ou une politique FR sur #nostr ?

I will think about it. It’s half social half tech, I guess

Is there any tech solution to maintain a « real » followers list ?

I believe it’s an interesting dev subject

Trying to bring in here in #nostr a full community living on Twitter and Telegram 👀✊🏻🔥

It’s the right time

Now I’m a little concerned about #nostr creators and well known devs 👀👀

We should have them all undoxxed ? nostr:note15dcmvngaxflya7m6fq7ssz2d88ecthxzpta5ngpme4m4n9mxe2cq4gas9g

You mean it doesn’t work in china ?

Great fireside between nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx and nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m at Nostriga. I got a chance to listen to it now.

Regarding the question of whether Nostr will have more users than Twitter/X in five years (~500 million), my base case would be no, actually. And I say that as a huge Nostr fan and daily user.

In the long arc of time, Nostr's addressable market is nearly unlimited (basically everyone who uses the internet could be using Nostr in some form), but I expect somewhat of a slower burn. Infrastructure build-out type stuff. And breaching a network effect with a better solution is generally quite a long uphill climb.

To me, Nostr is successful once it starts serving tens of millions of people well. I expect it to be more of a quality over quantity thing for a while. Bitcoin is almost 16 years in and still isn't at 500 million users. But for many of those people, it was lifechanging.

I'd like to be surprised to the upside, but I also don't want people to think that if Nostr is "only" at tens of millions of people in five years, or 100+ million but still sub-Twitter, that it underachieved. It's tiny right now, and numbers anywhere approaching that would be a huge increase.

Nostr is a great improvement for everyone using it. But sometimes it takes people time to see why a given solution is better than what they have, or to realize they have a problem at all.

So in the meantime I monitor Nostr's success by the quality and quantity of developer activity, the capability of the protocol as a freedom tool or the shortcomings it still has for that use case, the quality of the conversations throughout the ecosystem, how many people consider it to be lifechanging tech compared to centralized social media, and in time, steady growth.

Do we want mass adoption or smart adoption ?
