I liked what one or two people said below. @Joey (NostrComments) mentioned a good example.

1. Imagine someone named Bob reads a normal blog post and has never heard of Nostr. At the bottom is a comment box that pulls notes tagged with that articles url. Bob selects reply and the page makes a key in his browser, and he signs the comment. It shows up on the site and on Nostr and he didnt need to join anything. He left a commentand the key is already on his phone if he ever opens a client...

Something along those lines.

2. The other thought was as others mentioned see if there's people in communities such as tech, Foss, CyberSec, etc that may be generally interested and bring it up. The challenge, (among others obviously), is getting them to understand nostr along with its capabilities, and what they could create with it, etc.

3. I liked the idea of the creating a receipt/payment system for companies using QRs, but the only problem is there's not a good incentive for them use nostr other than those who want a better platform and already buy into the ecosystem.

One small nuance: the key lives in the browser until Bob chooses to export it (as nsec, or conne...
