We are still very very early. Sharpest insight this week was that people use social media apps for the community not the tech. Going 100% on nostr is perhaps a good move for bitcoin and nostr Devs and influencers. But is this community open and big enough to support the growers, artists and makers? We shall see.

If you hold bitcoin for a cycle or two that discomfort advice is easy. But most don't. The reality for most small operators is that 100 regular clients is a good living. If 1000 Nostr accounts look for 100 sales, say 2% hit rate, that's a lot of Nostrs users needed to support the makers. 5,000,000 fully engaged users Not saying it's unattainable, but that's a long slog. I speak as someone about to launch a platform supporting growers and makers and creators and I have built it as pro Nostr, putting BTC first and actively rejecting legacy platforms and services. Being realistic I'm expecting a lot of discomfort :) but it's not my first rodeo, so hey ho.
