Spend enough time on Nostr and you'll realize something. There may not be a more politically, culturally, religious or philosophically diverse group of people on the internet. Yet Bitcoin remains the common language. That should probably tell us something. 🫂

The older I get, the more I'm convinced that reliability is a superpower. The world has a shortage of those.
