Well, I saw that coming, for a while.

**Nostr, like Bitcoin, is a protocol and not a platform, so it's high-risk/low-reward, by definition.**

Nostr devs need a lot of internal motivation, vision, teamwork, and future orientation, to stick this out. It's an incredible grind; both the simplest and the hardest stuff I've ever worked on. Which says a lot, as I've worked on some amazing stuff.

We devs don't mind a zap ⚡ tho, 😁

(Your reminder that the devs leaving have usually received grant and/or VC funding, but #GitCitadel hasn't.)

I'm not sure i can agree with this. Nostr certainly is a high-risk/low-reward type of investment but, from my experience, bitcoin has always been a low-risk/high-reward one. The VC devs and vibecoding supporters (ahem, Primal, Derek Ross and Heather Larson) never truly believed in Nostr, imo.
