Show Notes

"In fact, this is the key feature that re-energized me toward Nostr a second time after my initial experience with it. Bitcoin and Nostr combined together work like an international decentralized open-source Venmo. It’s a method of payment combined with payment discovery."
— Lyn Alden

How might Nostr's open-source protocol transform our digital identities and interactions? What challenges lie ahead for its adoption and sustainability? Join us as we explore the power of Nostr with Lyn Alden's recent piece, and its implications for the future of the internet and Bitcoin ecosystem.

Check out the original article at The Power of Nostr: Decentralized Social Media and More by Lyn Alden.

"Lenin was certainly right. There is no subtler, no surer means of over- turning the existing basis of society than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose."
~ John Maynard Keynes
