Recently I receive the question a lot, why I’m not Nostr first, or whatever that’s supposed to mean.

I went to MIT two years ago and at a debate at the MIT Media Lab about new laws for media and content distribution and decentralized alternatives hosted by a Harvard professor and professor Sandy Pentland, I pushed back and lobbied for Nostr.

For over two years I have been on Nostr, when it just started and it was almost deserted and @jack was answering everyone. I missed Nostrica and Nostrasia, because of work and obligation to my team and their families. But still went to and supported all Nostr events at all the conferences. Only for those same people to ignore me when we needed Nostr in Suriname.

I had dinner at conferences with Nostriches that now ignore me. Built relationships with people I thought were friends, but have been doing nothing but stabbing me in the back for the last two years.

I organized a Nostr conference on my own with 0 support from those same people. @jb55 @Vanessa @Avi Burra
The only person who showed up was @calvadev⚡️ and we couldn’t even reach the amount of people we could have. Heck, we almost had to cancel the whole thing after a year of work (for a measly budget for the whole thing, $20K) if Bitcoin Beach hadn’t jumped in. It was severely downscaled. Nostr is supposed to be freedom technology.
The only person who semi-helped, was @Derek Ross
I am 1 person.. without help.

We live in a totalitarian police state. The masses are silenced. The nurses, the teachers, they’re paid $175-200 a month in salaries and if anyone talks, the government threatens them and they lose their jobs.

Political activists, indigenous, victims of rape (1 in 4, including myself) and victims of severe human rights violations have no one or where to turn to. We get threatened, beaten up or locked up without a trial or due process for years on end.
Our constitutional court is non functional thanks to our president, our courts are in the hands of the current regime and police and army are underpaid. HRF ignores us, because of some coked up hotel affair with two girls in the space. @Marce sabotages me any chance she gets.

Me participating in these elections as a political activist almost cost me and my child our lives last weekend. In the hospital, I was taken off IV and left to die. While I felt my pulse plummet. And cried while I begged God to save my child’s life. It was a small group of Bitcoiners that talked me through what to do while I passed out and thought I was breathing my last breath. So forgive me, for not caring what or where my social media presence is. I use it when I feel like it. And that’s for every platform.
We develop our apps as Nostr clients, e-commerce, real estate and a decentralized exchange. @Daedalus Labs was uninvited from Madeira, we were going to pitch FOSS, thanks to discussing nepotism in a private group.
There is so much centralization and unethical competition in the Bitcoin conference echo chamber/bubble fuck fest, that I skip all of them.
Because I don’t give a flying fuck about popularity.

I’m a toxic maximalist. Four years ago, I started dreaming and ideating with Obi, what a communications layer on top of the bitcoin network would look like, what a true and free internet would look like, how it would all fit together. What actual decentralization in capital markets would look like, after being sabotaged by fake maxis in El Salvador since 2019. Bet you all loooove Chivo and AlphaPoint. And how all of that worked out. So come, try, send your minions, sabotage and do your best, because I will never give up on those who need help and you will have to actually succeed in killing me.

I fight for my people and I fight for my family and my child. And if you don’t like that, you can gfy. 🫶🏽🧡🇸🇷
