Someone tried to build an Ethereum-based Nostr client called Dostr. Among the reasons it failed, IMHO, is why most Ethereum projects fail. It required that users already have an Ethereum wallet to connect in the first place. By tying your social graph to a blockchain, you immediately limit the potential size of your audience to only those who have already self-identified with that subgroup. Nostr doesn’t use or need a blockchain to function. That’s an important point that the crypto people (I am using a much nicer word than I usually do) often overlook.

Dostr

Ethereum-flavoured Nostr Client

Just do what you want. Some people will like it and others will hate it. As it should be

Have fun playing with your shitcoin😍

You’ll find out soon enough lol. Lots of orange not a lot of ETH here. If you build it they will come.

you can do what you want on nostr 😊 it's freedom tech 🫶

Welcome to nostr. Nobody can stop you from doing whatever you want here and nobody can stop us from making fun of you when you do it 😀

Nobody owns nostr. Anyone is free to build on the protocol. You'll get called a shitcoin scammer, but otherwise you're welcome

i am interesting in nostr general with or without coin involved , so welcome from me 😁

There might be a roughly defined community now, but there won’t be later. The main Q is do you want to own your identity on the internet, or not? If so, join nostr and build on it

There's nothing stopping anyone from building a parallel system that works within or alongside Nostr for specific communities, it's an open system. With zaps, you would need to build a transfer protocol that can work alongside lightning, something capable of keeping up with it as it reaches for 1M tps. If you can do that, have fun.

As a bitcoiner, I’d like to say that all our insults are meaningful. Please stop disparaging us with your mean words.

do what u want. but you’re probably wasting your time building on ethereum. ethereum is a scam. and its not even decentralized

No one is entitled to insulation from insult. If any one person's note insults you, it does not follow that some ill defined 'community' in your mind has repelled anything. Nostr cannot fix collectivists for whom preconceived notions are more powerful than reality, except through web of trust filtration. Merry Christmas. Don't roll back block chains.

Just because some of us (ok most) are not interested in ethereum, doesn’t mean things shouldn’t be built to bring that community here. At scale it won’t matter what one group of people thinks. Build what your heart desires and bring that community here. We’ll find a way to get along 😉 Let’s not fret over differences and focus on what we value in common: all the things you mentioned.

There's no way you can be completely blocked for everyone, so there's that. There are many solid cryptographers here already, good accounts about privacy, etc. I found that almost everyone here is pro bitcoin and some people here fully live on bitcoin. Most folks just chill and if you don't like some content, you just mute it or block it in your client. Yes, you are likely to get some negative comments about ethereum, often coming from experience. So you know, learn to deal with that and set up your client to deal with that the way you want... Fwiw, there's also decent cz community...

Nostr needs all kinds of people from all kinds of communities. That's what helps platforms grow.

You have your own keys to hold and sign your own words. This is sovereign data using cryptography over cyberspace. No one can steal it from you.

There is no "NOSTR" community. There are so many subcultures here on nostr already. Everyone is welcome here!
