 What’s wrong with Venmo or CashApp? 
 A nation like mine, don't have Venmo, CashApp and other Bank options you know.
I'm talking about at least 85,000,000 unbanked Iranians.
Also because of the economy hurdles, what little Bitcoin an Iranian can get, they tend to keep it if they can.

This was unrelated to the note but I had to say it. 
 That's interesting thank for share 
 If we really want this to succeed as freedom tech for all, we have to build for places like the U.S. and places like Iran. And that means, I think, focusing on subversive counter-economies... and not playing nice with existing regimes of control... 
 There are different perspective. 
The beauty of nostr is that everyone can potentially implement their own point of view. Like a client can integrate a fiat app.
I think there is a Monero nostr client somewhere.
