 I’m also a person who didn’t care about bitcoin in the slightest before nostr. 

Now I care about Bitcoin very much. 
 What exactly helped you change your mind? 
 Zaps made it easy to get started, to actually have some bitcoin, that was the key. Once you start looking into it, Bitcoin sells itself.

In January last year I had never held a coin. Now I've got a Bitaxe being delivered today 😂

 Most people I gave bitcoin to ended up losing them. You're ahead of the game. 
 I was fortunate. I've used Linux and open source software for a long time. I know what a GitHub is. I was already familiar with how keys work from ssh. This is some basic knowledge I think made using Nostr and Bitcoin easier for me. 
 @MrHodl why do you think that happened?

It's so wild to think there is a non-bitcoin Nostr somewhere around
