 I've decided to try moving from conventional social media (twitter) to new social media (nostr) I first got into crypto 10+ years ago and it seemed vital to have actually control over digital currency then as we all saw the huge spike of BTC lead to most people treating it like a speculative stock instead of a currency at that point I stopped spending it and a few years after kind of wrote off crypto as a whole since everyone I spoke to only seemed to care about ROI etc, on twitter that's still the norm (pump and dumping memecoins etc) I think the idea of zaps is incredible, a universal way to reward good content. Ramble over.

 Welcome!

There are those that see Bitcoin as freedom, and those that only see Bitcoin as an investment, and could care less about freedom. 
 Welcome! do you mine Bitcoin? 
 I did do at first but as it got more difficult I stopped and started buying off exchanges (before KYC) 
 Zaps and value for value are one of my favorite use cases on Nostr. Welcome 🫂💜🤙🏻
