Nostr is a redistribution of social media power. The ethos is different here than on Twitter. Many of the big accounts don't yet know how to Nostr, and are relying on their Twitter fame. This is an opportunity for the plebs to step in and take away some of their influence. Being warm and responsive to your audience will end up paying dividends, er, I mean sats. ⚡ And being distant and exclusive won't work here. The ones who really engage will become the stars of Nostr.

I wrote a tweet yesterday on Twitter that went sorta viral (600+ likes), and I got something like 80 new followers because of it. My posts on Nostr yesterday got some play, but my biggest note got 33 likes. However...I gained 200 followers yesterday here. Nostr is the future. I'm convinced of it. I'm going to put the majority of my effort here.

I don't care about politics anymore. I am an ardent anarcho-capitalist, however, I see the way forward for the freedom I want is not through consensus but by out-competing the current system by building parallel systems. This will be done with #Bitcoin, citadels, and national arbitrage. I'm much more bullish on this after discovering Nostr. Nostr is going to be a very powerful tool to organize independent communities. We are so early, but I see a day when Nostr will permit likeminded people to create their own communities with their own standards.

Post a song you're grooving on currently, and the best song IMO will get a 10K sat zap! Contest ends tomorrow morning, when I pay out. Runner up prizes will be fewer sats, but I'll zap every song I like something. Go! I'll start.
