nostr is not going to die if everyone takes my approach, it will continue to grow organically,

people like you might leave because you might feel that Nostr is not growing enough or fast enough or you're not making enough zaps, but I and many will still be here because it's decentralized and we can't be banned. We don't care about getting rich from zaps and nostr doesn't need billions of users who care only about money,

I'm going zap you 1 zap for effort, please enjoy my one zap

I don’t often zap, but when I do, it’s to stop Contra giving me cognitive dissonance

GM!

Making me think. This isn't my default, but still a healthy question to consider - maybe I'm this way in some areas.

GM!

you're wrong, I'm not going to zap a note 1 dollar or more,

I normally zap 21 sats or less, I did zap 1 dollar in the past but very rarely do I zap big zaps, I am not here to make anyone rich, the CEO of nostr tried convincing us to zap big amounts regularly instead of little amounts but it didn't work.

If people start zapping big amounts all the time, it's going to cut into their savings, especially in a time when the fiat system keeps us poor, and many won't zap as much. I can zap as much as I want because 21 sats isn't very much.

When nostr has millions of billions of users then those tiny zaps are going to equal a crazy big amount of money but since nostr is small then for some it feels like those tiny zaps are not worth it and they will quit nostr.

People who buy expensive coffee are probably a majority on blue sky, my advice to noatrichs is pay yourself first, and save as much as you can, make ur own coffee and don't be crazy on the zaps.

even if someone zaps 1 sat to me, I value that zap, I don't need big zaps and I'm not here to get rich

Don’t listen to this guy. He’s trying to blame the hodlers whenever content creators burn out and quit Nostr. He’s calling users who zap small amounts names.

We’re not here to make anyone rich or pay someone else’s bills. We’re here to have fun and zap whatever amount we want.

If a content creator quits because they think Nostr users are stingy or their zaps aren’t big enough, then let them quit.

Anyone who only cares about money doesn’t deserve even a single zap.

You’re the only one who truly knows your financial situation. Keep holding if that’s what you need to do to protect your future in this corrupt fiat system.

Pay yourself first. Zap whatever amount feels right to you — even if it’s just 1 zap. That 1 zap still has value to many of us who value even 1 zap.

I'm sorry to inform you, but if I accept your logic here, you actually owe me 2.1k sats or maybe even more. I read this whole long-form post, and boy, it was painful... Such nonsense.

I am still using Longform.space and enjoying it.

How do you overcome the feeling of being tired and uninspired?

Responsibilty is critical

Regardless, there isn't a single winding path that doesn't profit God's glorious plan.

I certainly hope we can taste victory over evil and sin in our life, and I can see a way that #Bitcoin can be an instrument to that end.

We can chop down our own tower of Babel, with #Bitcoin, or wait until God scatters us into the wind.

The Holocaust was not that special. Genocides are a dime a dozen. The real conversation is why governments have, as a rule, committed genocide over and over again throughout history.

#Bitcoin is a better "solution" to genocide than cancelling Nick Fuentes.

No secret knowledge needed, just an undknowledge of our sinful nature, acceptance of Christ as Lord and His gift of redemption, and being baptised into Him. No secrets there, all laid out for us in the Bible.

A lot of parallels with a certain white paper and sound money... Some accept, some reject, but one day all with be unable to deny the truth.

Great article. Well worth a read to start my day

Personal development, especially around mindset, is one of the highest areas of ROI in my view

I especially like asking “why Nostr?”, the answer for which is so many things, all inspiring, and very helpful as one hone’s their strategy
