Open decentralized software - Bitcoin, Nostr, etc. - is providing the ultimate checks and balances our economies have needed for a long time. Bitcoin upholds our constitutional rights against unchecked government bureaucracies and money printing while things like Nostr ensure free speech, assembly, and truth. It’s a peaceful Revolution!

nostr needs a token to represent a users owned data to ultimately challenge the network effects of centralized social media companies. Without tokenomic incentives, owned data alone wont cut it, network effects of incumbents wont therefore be wounded, and most people will continue to succumb to centralized social media.
