The protocol is literally based on cryptography. It doesn't exist or work without it. Or are you more annoyed with the Zap culture? Because when you join, you wouldn't know shit about Bitcoin and or crypto unless you followed npubs that talk about it.

When I say “crypto” reputation you should know what I mean. Cryptography is not necessarily blockchain either. And nostr is not blockchain, it’s websockets. If new users are complaining about their feeds full of Bitcoin content, we should probably do something about that to disassociate it from the protocol (that’s if we want nostr to grow). We already have clients that don’t implement the wallet feature. Clients come preloaded with public relays where a bunch of bitcoiners are talking bitcoin.
