I'm interested in seeing everyone's answers here. 😏

#21Questions 
 Do you have an online version of this (with answers) that I could link to?  
 Not yet, but I'm working on that now. Like its predecessor, "21 Questions" (the Bitcoin edition: https://a.co/d/iVUGiZH ), this will be a book with 21 chapters, each chapter's title is one of the questions listed above, and all the answers in each chapter written by some of the most knowledgeable people in the Nostr space, like @efenigson, @paulinthejungle, @Vitor Pamplona, and others. When it's done, the book will be available in paperback, hardcover, ebook, and audiobook, and will be a valuable resource to share with new (and potential) Nostr users.

I'd love to also include your answers in this book! I'll send you the details in a DM.
