I just told a friend about Nostr. He didn't know what it was. He asked: “How does the algorithm work?" Ok. Hear me out…

If bitcoin did not exist, I don't know if I could look to the future with optimism. #Bitcoin is literally the light at the end of the tunnel.

@Blockstream pioneering Zapvertising ⚡️ Love to see it!

This. In the past year and a half, many people have (rightfully) criticized NOSTR for its flaws, but the importance of NOSTR lies not so much in its features as in its very existence. A protocol, however flawed, will always be better than alternatives that don’t yet exist. In recent weeks, many are realizing the need for a decentralized alternative. Nostr is here. And that's all that matters. View quoted note →

GM Nostr! I need your help. I'm looking for some usage data showing the growth of Nostr users in the last two weeks. Does anyone know how I can get them? In the Explore section of Primal I can find the current active users, but I would like to understand how they have changed after the Telegram, Meta in the U.S., and X in Brazil cases. Thanks!

Every time I reflect on it, I'm utterly astonished. The brilliance of the Trojan horse strategy is truly remarkable. #Bitcoin is fundamentally a wager against the fiat system. As Bitcoin prospers, the fiat system inevitably falters. Yet, paradoxically, the largest financial institutions within the fiat system are now deeply involved in Bitcoin, lured by the potential for financial gain. In their pursuit of profit, they are unknowingly dismantling their own business model. Absolutely mind-blowing.
