There are millions (actually more like billions) of people who are not on Nostr only because they haven't heard of it before, and/or don't know how it works.
The "21 Questions" book I'm working on is meant to bridge that gap.
GM.


Imagine if orange/purple/etc. pilling were as easy as giving someone a short book to read.
Each edition of this book answers 21 of the top questions people ask about Bitcoin, Nostr, or other subjects, from the different perspectives of the greatest minds in each space.
This also points the reader to those they can rely on for more answers, as they dive deeper.
That's the core purpose of "21 Questions."
The first book, all about #Bitcoin, features answers from @Guy Swann, @Giacomo Zucco, @CARLAโก๏ธ and @walker, and many others.
It's the perfect introduction for anyone who has heard of the future of money, but hasn't taken the plunge yet.
Buy it here:
The second book, all about Nostr, is currently in development, and will feature answers from @miljan, @Vitor Pamplona, @paul keating, and others! When completed, it will be the purple pill that you've always wanted!
I'll drop more info about this soon, so stay tuned!

I'll drop more info about this soon, so stay tuned!God, the Great Architect, also uses layers in His designs.
The "base layer" of God's plan is justice.
And the "layer 2" of His plan is mercy.
"The plan of mercy could not be brought about except an atonement should be made. Therefore, God Himself atones for the sins of the world, to bring about the plan of mercy, to appease the demands of justice, that God might be a perfect, just God, and a merciful God also." -Alma

Anyone else find it odd that the @Jesus account not only has "jesus" as part of the npub (that's not too odd, I know lots of accounts that have vanity npubs), but also "666":

I'm getting some mixed messages here.
Why do we need Nostr?
Or, asked another way: Why is Nostr important?
This is the 3rd question that's asked in the Nostr edition of "21 Questions," and will be answered by some of the most well known people involved in this space.
But how would ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ answer that? I'll zap my favorite answers, and if I ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ญ๐ญ๐บ like it, I'll include it in the book, too!


Know anyone who is new to #Bitcoin and has questions about it?
Hand them this book, so all their biggest questions can be answered by many of the best experts in the space, including the @Spirit of Satoshi.
Orange pilling has never been easier.
And stay tuned for the next installment of 21 Questions: the top 21 questions about Nostr.
Here's a sneak-peek of the table of contents: ๐

In my upcoming book, "21 Questions: Nostr Edition," answers to the top 21 questions about Nostr will be given by some of the best minds involved in this space.
I already have several of them lined up and answering the questions, but who would ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ like to see as a featured contributor in the book? #AskNostr
Tag them below.๐

I'm putting together the very first book about Nostr, "21 Questions: Nostr Edition", which is a follow-up to the book I compiled earlier this year, "21 Questions: Bitcoin Edition" (https://a.co/d/5nv1GoK).
Like the Bitcoin Edition, each chapter in the Nostr Edition will be 1 question out of the 21 top questions that new Nostr users tend to ask. They'll each be answered by many of the greatest minds involved with developing Nostr and spreading the purple pill. ๐ฃ
And that could also include ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ.
The second question in the book will be: "๐ช๐ต๐ผ ๐ฐ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ก๐ผ๐๐๐ฟ?" How would ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ answer that question?
Do you think that simply stating that it was @fiatjaf would be satisfactory for a new Nostr user? I'll zap extra sats if you also tell the story around Nostr's creation, and get creative with it. ๐
Share your answer in the comments, and if I think it's good enough, I'll include it in the book, and attribute it to you, forever immortalizing you in the first-ever Nostr book.
I camped and backpacked for 8 miles over the weekend, with my 4 oldest boys, in Cloudland Canyon State Park in northern Georgia, which is about an hour south of Chattanooga TN. I started down at the bottom of that gulch, around the bend to the left, and went all the way to the top of some cliffs where I got this amazing view! ๐คฉ
8 miles isn't a lot for me, but that uphill climb out of that gulch was brutal! ๐
I'm still feeling sore from it now!
I look forward to going there again! ๐
