I think a Bitcoin-Nostr dude and a Monero-Nostr dude have more in common,

Than a Bitcoin-Nostr and Bitcoin-Twitter guy.

Because if you're on Nostr, you gotta figure the person is much more likely to also be doing circular economics, Linux, DeGoogled phones, privacy, and has liberty-minded political beliefs.

While as there are so many Bitcoiners on Twitter just gambling on price, with no other awareness of what Bitcoin even originally solved.

You may hate to admit it, but Nostr's bond (and culture) is stronger than fighting over which currency.

Feels accurate to me
kkratoch · 57w
I can agree with that.
ODELL · 57w
YES
Captain's Nostr Log · 57w
MONEY IS A TOOL FOR DEALING WITH PEOPLE YOU DON'T TRUST. THERE IS MORE TRUST AMONG NOSTR USERS WITH DIFFERENT CURRENCIES THAT BETWEEN NOSTR AND TWITTER USERS

Nostr’s like a clubhouse for people who read the whitepaper. Bitcoin-Twitter’s just a hype machine with a side of FOMO.
m0xie · 57w
Agree
Sun of the Moon · 57w
Yes, because if we wait long enough there will only be bitcoin.
thoughtcrimeboss · 57w
Yes for gods sake we can accomplish much more together. BTC and XMR go together like bread and organic grassfed irish butter.

Bitcoin-Twitter people are the worst of the worst. Zero respect. 100% statists and NGU culture.
nostrich · 57w
100% agree. Nuances. I recommend to hold and use both. Bitcoiners value verifiable and limited supply more. Moneristas value default privacy and long term incentives for CPU miners more. Other than that we work on the same goals and projects.

Agreed, and there is also the fact that at least on one side of that dichotomy, there is a big difference. Literally everyone I know (online and offline) - and it's quite a lot of people) who uses Monero because of privacy, also holds Bitcoin, and almost always in much greater amounts than their XM...

I love the monero folks, apart from monero they also often have deep privacy insights on other technologies as well, and I respect that.
