Put good out, good comes back.

I just had this discussion with someone yesterday... but he basically said the two things...😁

I’m seeing pictures from #gaza of things that should never be allowed to happen.

We are horrible humans.

People who say this like its a bad thing don't understand how to bootstrap networks.

100,000 users on a network talking about 100,000 different topics dies in a matter of days, because there's literally nobody to talk to about *your* topic and no cohesion at all in the network. 100,000 users in one community is a solid network.

Look at every successful network in history, it *always* starts with an atomic, self sustaining network around a single community or purpose.

- Amazon. Only sold books.

- Uber, Lyft, and pretty much any rideshare service. All got a critical mass in ONE city before expanding.

- Airbnb. Started exclusively and got success in San Francisco.

- Napster. Started with almost exclusively music

- Facebook. Exclusively Harvard students

- Twitch.tv started as just one guy streaming his life and then targeted gamers.

- Pinterest, focused entirely on "mom-bloggers"

This list goes on and on. What he is describing is literally *the only way alternative networks are ever successful.* So contrary to the idea that this is bad, it's actually the only reason Nostr is still here. Because you can find most of the best bitcoiners, tons of great holistic lifestyle content, and cypherpunks wanting to build awesome shit.

That's actually a fantastic start and we should LEAN INTO THIS MORE, not steer away from it. We do so at our own detriment if we just complain about and fail to embrace the community we DO have.

- Tinder. Literally grew itself locally one frat and sorority party at a time.

I agree. And my post history proves it.

I’ve said lean into it and service it multiple times in the past.

Because, while we are somewhat homogeneous… we still have our own “other” interest that we bring here, albeit with not a lot to talk with about. But that’s how additional topics start to emerge.

If you don’t like what you are reading… hit mute.

yeah, if somone has an idea and can get an mvp under $30. that's a pretty good deal.

big things are happening.

just keep pushing.

persistence is key.

It tastes delicious.

One of the busiest places in #amman #jordan

- Habiba Deserts.

This location looks like this every night, has been for the past 40 years.

Daaamn! It’s crazy newspapers are picking up the story as well 😂

Cheaters, remember: don’t cheat, and if caught, act normal and wave to the camera to avoid becoming an internet meme. 😂

Zaps are a real-world use case proving Lightning as a functional microtransaction rail with organic demand.

What William created is his own financial layer and made history

In a post-shitcoin world:

- Zaps are the only surviving “like” button with real economic consequence.

You liked this enough to part with bitcoin.

Now it’s just about bringing zaps into the cultures of people (music,art) but as an expression it exists

Your clients are both working really good for Lightning tipping

Just want to say thanks

Apart from giving it a new layer, William Made Bitcoin feel social and human without altering Bitcoin itself

agreed. and it will only get better from here.

nwc for example is remarkable.

I have been on this earth for many moons, I'm starting to believe there is no recipe for success except persistence.

I know you are a good actor.

Was wondering since it’s still in early beta/alpha, If it’s at a point you feel ok using your nsec.

Like coracle was leaking nsecs with bug reports for example.

125 over the weekend?

Seeing this get likes somewhat out of context is very funny 😂

No so anon #bitchat

Just remember why you came here and why you stayed.
