Exactly! That’s the irony of it all. They move to these so-called "exclusive" platforms thinking they’re avoiding censorship, but they’re still dependent on centralized entities—especially when it comes to payments. Whoever controls the payment rails can still exert influence, meaning true freedom isn’t really achieved.

With #Nostr, we have a real opportunity to break that cycle, but it requires creators and users to understand that decentralization isn’t just about avoiding content restrictions—it’s also about breaking free from the financial gatekeepers. Until then, they’re just trading one form of control for another

Uncomfortable Nostr Reality check:

I've tried to Nostr-pill all my YouTube friends (some of them have incredible amounts of subs), but none of them care about the censorship resistance or decentralization. Even though they know Nostr exists, they have no incentive yet to come here. Their audience would follow them anywhere, but they need the tools to create community communications.

It's a sad reality, but it all comes down to usability, UX, and ultimately the easiness of paying and signing up for the community. None of these can afford to have a sign-up problem or issues with someone being interested in joining the community/their platform. It needs to work flawlessly and feel and look professional. Some of them charge $3-5k a year just to get access to this closed space, and people are willing to pay for this.

Another big pain point is community management. All of these YouTubers create these platforms to help their audience have a safe place to communicate with each other and build their own tribe.

Nostr is capable of facilitating all of this - we're just not there yet. We need to somehow invest so much more into UX and design.

All of this will come when the time is due. So, knowing that all of this is possible and that ultimately, Nostr will be powering most of these via the social graph, is what makes me extremely bullish. But also, let's not get ahead of ourselves and expect them to come already.

The UX and features are not there yet for these people. I am more than happy to help anybody trying to make this a reality. I want nothing more than having these people join Nostr. But I also totally understand their pain points. So, if you're a dev or a company working on this, please feel free to reach out - I can tell you all the issues they told me. Or just tell me how to best do this; maybe I can jump on a podcast so the issues are open-sourced for the whole community to hear.

You’ve hit the nail on the head. The core issue isn’t just the technology itself but how it’s presented to users. Many creators and their audiences expect platforms to be intuitive and seamless, with a strong focus on UX. Nostr has the potential to deliver this, but it’s clear there’s still work to do in making it user-friendly and attractive enough to draw in larger communities.

The challenge of getting creators to adopt Nostr doesn’t lie in the principles of decentralization or censorship resistance — most creators understand the importance of these. It’s about the tools, the ease of use, and the professional polish that Nostr currently lacks. Until Nostr provides an experience that rivals the closed platforms these creators are accustomed to (especially when those platforms generate significant revenue), it will be difficult to convince them to make the jump.

I agree that investing in UX and community tools is crucial. If Nostr can match or exceed the functionality and ease of use found on other platforms, the value proposition of decentralization and censorship resistance will become much more compelling. In the meantime, I’d love to collaborate on any efforts to address these pain points, whether it’s contributing to design ideas, providing feedback, or helping to spread awareness through content like podcasts.

The potential is there, and I’m excited for the future, but we must be patient and practical in how we get there. Let’s keep building!

Enjoy . It's a pleasure for me to share them.

35. The Perspective of the Future:

Bitcoin as a Reserve Currency With growing concerns about inflation and the devaluation of the Naira, some experts suggest that Bitcoin could become a reserve currency for Nigerians.

As the infrastructure for Bitcoin trading and use improves, Bitcoin could be considered not only as a speculative asset, but also as a serious alternative to fiat currencies in developing economies.

Influencers and experts regularly share information on market trends, investment strategies and the risks associated with cryptocurrencies.

This platform has facilitated an open dialogue, enabling more Nigerians to explore and actively participate in the world of cryptocurrencies.

The rise of Bitcoin also raises questions about the environmental impact of mining.

However, initiatives are emerging to use renewable energy sources for Bitcoin mining in Nigeria.

Solar and wind-powered mining projects are beginning to emerge, with the aim of combining economic profitability with environmental sustainability.

This approach aims to position Nigeria as a key player in the cryptocurrency sector while respecting the environment.

31. Bitcoin in Rural Areas:

Access to the Digital Economy In rural areas of Nigeria, access to banking services is limited.

Bitcoin initiatives enable local farmers and entrepreneurs to engage in transactions without intermediaries.

Through community projects, locals are learning to use Bitcoin to sell their products directly to international customers, bypassing the obstacles associated with traditional banking infrastructure.

30. Cryptocurrencies and Tourism:

Attracting Visitors

With the rise of Bitcoin adoption, some businesses in Nigeria are beginning to accept cryptocurrencies as a means of payment.

This includes hotels, restaurants and travel agencies.

The move is aimed at attracting tourists who prefer to use cryptocurrencies to avoid exchange fees and facilitate their transactions.

As a result, Nigeria's tourism sector could see a new dynamic thanks to the integration of blockchain technologies.
