 Nostr + Bitcoin gives small, independent artists (i.e., most artists) back control of their voice and audience online. It is not the super famous mainstream artists who will flock to nostr, at least initially. They enjoy the benefits of the large, algorithmic, ad-driven platforms. It is the small artists, who cannot feasibly compete for attention on those platforms, who need nostr and bitcoin, and will continue turning to it as they see how transformative it is in connecting with their audience and monetizing their content.
