 Does any one know how many active daily users are on Nostr?
This is more fun than twitter! 
 I think... 

Nostr.band

It's not that many, but, we are the above average intelligence curious early adopters. We are fun. We are weird.  
 Hard to tell & keep in mind that all stats are wrong, but around 50k active users on public relays right now. Weekly. https://image.nostr.build/97f114392262a102c3a12027b6f0ea3ba7a6ae01dd38d39dda21bf6ed16ead19.jpg 
 half of them are replyguy and girl 😜  
 I think this will be the hardest to explain to normies lol.

Influencer: "How many followers do I have?"

Nostr Marketing Team: "It's unknowable" 
 You need to actually follow people tho.  
 😂 😂 😂  
 it's growing but not fast enough for what it is. 

here, you can't get canceled, censored, or demonetized- ever. you keep your followers forever.

there's no nostr headquarters or ceo...

glad you're here and tell the other md's in your orbit! 
 I believe Jack Dorsey said that Nostr feels like twitter back in the early days. Others on here compare Nostr to how the internet felt like when it first started. I was late for the first two, but I think Nostr might be even better because it combines decentralized speech with decentralized money.

He's a carnivore doctor from Mexico doing big things, and a great explainer of how Bitcoin + Nostr will benefit the #carnivore community and fix the healthcare system!

 Haha thanks for the shoutout Ben! 
 Saludos Dr. Morales, keep up the great work! 
 Thanks!! 
 Daily Active Users is a scam 
 More now that you're here, probably. The protocol needs people such as yourself to bring people over and help it grow. 
 ooh! I didn't know you were on Nostr! 
So cool!!!!!

I just recommended you to someone this morning. Super fit guy who's struggling with constant back pain. Doctors have told him it's genetic. 

To answer your question: I'm not sure we know. But it's great group of folks 💜

 Quality > quantity 
 More since Pavel

If you exclude bitcoinners , zero 
 Ive heard 23 
 Around 17k daily average users currently. 
 this is how #Nostr grows! @KenDBerryMD thanks for being here in this publc space! 
 Welcome, Ken!  Your book and videos have helped me immensely!  Thank you. 
 Followed, urology. 
 happy to have you heard doc 🧡🧡 
 I've been meaning to delete Twitter, want to hold hands and do it together? 
 The # will always be wrong, along with every other metric lol 
 I'm decently active on Nostr, to be completely fair. 
 Organic is always > than manufactured 
 I was sure this was a fake account -- but I just now saw your post on Twitter/X.

So glad you're here. Welcome! 
 hells yeah. way more fun the dedbird. 
 Definitely getting those early Twitter vibes—fun, open, and real conversations. Weird to say, but there’s a whole ‘feeling’ to using Nostr.

Maybe it’s the fresh energy of new tech adopters being less cynical? 🔥 
 I am so glad to see that you are on #NOSTR, nostr:nprofile1qqstzt0wugc7sklvr8e7fcl7ukyn63ym3ns4nmf2mnk0vqnz4l9x65qpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqguwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxumm5d4skuerpw3hhy7fwdaexwqgawaehxw309ahx7um5wghx66tyv3kxjmn89ekhjerwwvhx5uq9ezhgl! I have been following you for about a year on YouTube. 
 have a Look at nostr.stats 
 the cool thing is, you can't know! there is no single "nostr". active users live across many different relays, both public and private, many of which do not interact with each other

 How is this information obtained? 
 You can get it if you through the nostr sdk in python. However, there is a much straight forward way in the primal client if you go to the Explore it will give the current stats.  
 this is similar to asking how many users are using email or how many people browse the web. we really don't have an accurate count for those. we can have educated guesses and estimates though. nostr is no different here.

According to nostr.band, Nostr consists of the following:

Pubkeys: 35,067,097
Users: 1,067,394
Trusted users: 188,773
