Nostr is an accelerant to Bitcoin adoption and dismissing the nascent technology is probably as imprudent as it was in Bitcoin's early days.

In NostRiga nostr:npub1lunaq893u4hmtpvqxpk8hfmtkqmm7ggutdtnc4hyuux2skr4ttcqr827lj had this intuition Web-Of-Trust is deflationary. He is correcdt!
There is no better explanation of this than MP's "GPG Contracts" article.

The potential of this is MASSIVE. It's a complete shift from the society we live in.
We all love Bitcoin and it is the future but to bootstrap the AI <> Nostr flywheel we must put into developers' hands money they're familiar with.
This is where stablechannels come in!
nostr:npub1zfytz6ktce3av2svlfpl0e79e44tnskxmvlpkcmc7q0xct3qa49swvm60l's talk at nostr:npub155m2k8ml8sqn8w4dhh689vdv0t2twa8dgvkpnzfggxf4wfughjsq2cdcvg day further convinced me that this is a very powerful idea.
It doesn't have to be perfect. It JUST WORKS at small scale and is extremely sticky!

Feels like a completely new world opened up to me this weekend.
Euro-bitcoin feels different. No nonsense. High character. Diverse and open-minded.
Canβt believe Iβve missed out on this for so long.
Thank you so much for the opportunity nostr:npub1zu5tdnq7w63fgmsfz85te7e6zeg7y2lt8q8r9jp5zcg68jfy73jqraqtgz Max and all the BHB team
The quality of people in the Nostr space is pretty mindblowing to me as a mere Bitcoin pleb.
We're going to get so sick of winning
Some food for Nostr thoughts.
