Nostr has better network effect than Bitcoin. It should grow MUCH faster.

Nostr is governed by Metcalfe’s law, value of network = users ^ 2. Whereas BTC doesn’t get that luxury (buying BTC and HODLing does exponentially add value to the network).

I took Bitcoin 14 years to get to approx 500 million users. I suspect Nostr will get there in half the time, maybe much less.

If it works out some of the larger experiential issues/motivations on the front end, it could easily grow that large in 3-4. Assuming the network itself was robust enough to handle that traffic. Seems like the biggest hurdle is drawing non creator audience and it’s gonna have to have a value prop + little friction to do that.
