If every Bitcoiner was in Bitcoin for the revolution, for the technology, and for what Bitcoin could truly mean for the future of the world, they'd be using Nostr already. They're not in Bitcoin for the same reasons that you're in Bitcoin. That's a hard truth that needs to be understood.

Nailed it. Most people are just trading a ticker symbol; they haven't realized that sovereign money requires a sovereign social layer. If you're still relying on centralized algorithms to talk about decentralized money, you’re only halfway there. Nostr isn't just an app; it's the proof of work for...

For what reasons are you into bitcoin? For me it started from condemning spying on people

Bros just want girlfriends and steaks 🥩 for life. We want free societies and sovereign communities

Idk Derek.. some of us specifically stayed over there (without bluechecks) to TRY (and fail) to fight the nonstop onslaught of shitcoins and misinformation about bitcoin … the informed takes from guys like you are sorely missed as hoards of newbies get fiat brainwashed …but in the end, it’s ho...

We feel your pain Derek. It’s going to be up to the real bitcoiners to teach the world how useful Bitcoin can be and all the wonderful tools like Nostr to excel Bitcoin on every level. This is why I started nostr:nprofile1qqs2pee498sykjts5xz7se9cne7ku8k3fr7lpqupk4q2cqs2wskx94gpr3mhxue69uhhyetvv9uj...

Bitcoin is killing nostr by making it unmarketable. The 99.x% churn rate is because of bitcoin more than any other factor. Newcomers are like "oh this is a bitcoin thing" and then they leave. Because they're not bitcoin people and never will be. Nostr should never have made a faustian bargain with ...

One key component of bitcoin is greed, it wouldn’t work without it. A lot of people are in bitcoin because of it and that’s not bad, it’s actually a requirement. Just because some are not in it for the tech doesn’t mean they’re not bitcoiners. Bitcoin has layers

The problem is people Hodl bitcoin for fiat money. You can’t blame this on anyone but yourself if you are spending dollars and have no strategy other than to hold when blackrock dumps on you.

True but twitter is very sticky with that. Fortunately it has become so bad that you basically torture yourself doomscrolling. For sanity I will be more on nostr as I can curate my feed by whom I follow. Also I can have my openclaw buddy here and try a few things without paying for an api key. But I...

Bitcoin without Nostr is opting out of half the revolution.

🙌 Good friend is full in bitcoin and the philosophy but somehow nostr is still to far away or complicated. Also the whole family does whatsapp/insta so that doesn't help him. We could do with some good quality User Research and UX IMHO also 🙂⚡

Nostr just happens to be adjacent to Bitcoin. Nostr and Bitcoin work together, but they're not mutually exclusive. I wish more people would adopt open technologies like Nostr, Bitcoin, even Ethereum and its ecosystem.
