Oddbean new post about login | logout "Nostr is a great idea but nobody uses it so I'll use Twitter" "Bitcoin is a great idea but nobody accepts it so I'll use fiat" Literally identical energy Have some fucking principles
Don’t be the change you want to see in the world energy.
Boiling frog energy
Oh, you mean like going off-line for 20 something years and living on the ridge and meditating to only be bombarded into coming back to save the world is that what you mean? Yeah that’s what I heard. 🤣🤣🤣
People contradict themselves all the time don’t they 😂
yes they don't. gfy, fren!
Tbf it doesn’t have the same kinda game theory economic incentive
Has same game theory social freedom go up incentive imo
Proving proof. Thanks 🙏
I don't mind that poseurs don't use Nostr. It's a great filtering mechanism and keeps my infostream from getting clogged up.
👋👋
Hard to argue. Big fan of this. I'm pretty much fully across to #nostr now. Just need to start converting the rest. nostr:note1n0744y39lvz23ay05ca6nag2qxmsl77gtpyge7djcm57pzjfh53sas2elr

It doesn’t seem identical. Bitcoin is a superior asset class never before seen in the world rewarding adopters “forever” proportionately to how early you adopted Nostr seemingly does not benefit the early adopters the same way, the ex nfl and pop music podcasters simply want to reach the largest audience, this is how they measure their own success. There is a reason mrbeast isn’t posting here, maybe he is? I am grateful for both but it doesn’t seem identical

Counterpoint: if you have to shame people to do adopt something, then it clearly doesn't provide any sufficient value. If you buy Bitcoin out of principle instead of being grateful it exists to fulfill a dire need, you should sell it. nostr:nevent1qqsfhl26jgjlkp9g7j86vwaf759qrdc0l0y9sjyvlxevd60q3fym6gcpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurvv438xarj9e3k7mgzyr3vea70ypqr70e2ff2mx28smca78p2c5l2lxd3jlk4wl3exc8ywkqcyqqqqqqgj3wwvc
I think that people who are saying the above will have a set of principles only different to ours. I’m afraid it’ll take a lot of time and patience
Social proof phenomenon https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_proof
Running principles
It is not the same thing unfortunately. People in the future will be "forced" to use Bitcoin. I meant it. Countries will be forced to hold and use Bitcoin. We need to build Nostr in a way people are forced to use it because of its benefits. I disagree with the statement people use Bitcoin out of principles. We all benefit from it.
it's more like, "I get more value by using this network."
💯
It was principals that drove me to nostr only.
There's a big difference between money and and social media, they are not comparable.
FREEDOM TECH REQUIRES A PRINCIPALED FEW TO BOOTSTRAP IT, THIS WAS TRUE OF BITCOIN TOO EVEN IF THE USE CASE IS DIFFERENT
That's a beautiful way of seeing it, but the fact is that people use social media to share with other people and find new, engaging content. Try to see it like this would you drink at: 1) a bar where your friends don't want to go because it's in shady part of the city, drinks mid, the beer is not even the one brand that's all over the city that you like but some unknown craft brand that only makes IPAs (lets say only few of you like IPAs), but they have cheaper prices and and they follow business practices that you find appealing. 2) a bar where your friends always go, in a part of the city that's really easy to access, you always meet new people, drinks are of everyone's liking, they have a huge variety of beers, and basically have all the reasons for you to be a recurring client, but, their business practices are the worst. Which one do you think most people will chose?
If th "nice bar" requires me to pay a cover fee and hand over all my public information in order for my voice will be heard, I'll go to the dark bar with the non-cucks tyvm
