 I think nostr is the biggest opportunity to work closely with Bitcoin than there has ever been.  For many reasons.  

Some of which are: Bitcoin companies tend to be heavy on fincen regulations and unexciting exchange of currencies.  They actually wish they could build a nostr, but can't because they're in a quagmire of regulations and risk.  They would never pay someone with lightning to make memes. They would never implement zaps in a day. They have to stay in the app stores and suckle up to big tech.  Or they are so small that they're only a few developers needed.

Nostr is so exciting and full of possibilities, and I'm glad I'm here for it whether it succeeds or not.  Hopefully these guys will see that and join the party instead of complaining about where to 'allocate devs'. 🤙
