Neither was I. But this idea that "people we trust need to do it" is dangerous. What if WE are wrong? What if our need to "trust" is hampering Nostr's development? 

I think about that all the time. The Nostr community is extremely close minded. We are all basically the same individual. It's by far the least adversarial community I participate nowadays. 

I want to trust the free market. If some crazy person goes for this and attracts significant support for their ideas, I will be the first in line to want to see it just to make sure my ideas are what I think they are.
