I mentioned this earlier in a DM, but I think this deserves to break free.
How do you invest in Nostr?

I would also add running infrastructure.
What’s the best entry level stuff to run?
yes, but that's also not something that everyone can do either.
Essentially take a punt, and show up!
Love this
It really inspires me
Fair Point.
Just running a free and simple relay is probably the easiest way to do it. I would start playing with stirfry if you're interested. You can modify it fairly easy. Like for instance, I'm running a spam filter in front of my free relay. It's taught me a lot about how to combat spam.
Nice. Learn by doing!
I want people to trust me but don't want to put in the work. Any advice 🤔
Look into something called "Solana".
my content is Trump!
Nostr is part of a broader shift toward systems built on truth, freedom, and individual sovereignty. These are the same forces that underpin Bitcoin.
When you contribute your time, ideas, and creativity on Nostr, you are accelerating the transition to a more decentralized and trustworthy world.
I'm here. Feels different. Much less desperation. More chill future vibes.
I'm liking this whole WoT chatter
Social networks are wonderful, but algos are devil's work
Hear hear 👏🏻
i appreciate the kind words and support, but im just another guy on the decentralized internet working on freedom technology!
Although I think nostr is the best platform we currently have, I actually have created my own platform it started out with nostr and ipfs integration but now I do everything in house. It's unique because it's like nostr, ipfs, BitTorrent and it's all secured by blockchain metadata transactions that can actually scale to an insane amount of TPS. Follow me as I'll be releasing the white paper soon, just finalising the mesh network for 2gb file storage built in everything else is finished just some polish and stress testing then release in the new year. Here's a sneak peek at the posting dialog. Peace Nate
What’s WoT? 🧐
You invest on NOSTR by developing cool tech that people actually want to use 💜

I’m here for the revolution
True, example are my art projects with all Nostriches in it for Bitfest. More than 50 payed 2100 sats to be in it ✍️🙏💜 Its almost finished @2140Art+2140Music
Nailed it.
Show up and engage! That simple
Nah. Algos can be wonderful and beneficial. The reason we immediately think of them as being bad is because of how they're used in legacy social media. They're closed and they're forced upon us. If algorithms were open source and transparent and allowed user choice, I feel that people would have a much more positive view of them. We're building that here. We're allowing users to choose and create their own algorithms or allowing users choice over their attention and their feed content
Absolutely.
Nice! Did not know this! Legacy social media algos are made with the sole intent of retaining attention by reinforcing user's own ideas and points os view, I did never thought of an algo that empowers users instead of psyoping them 😁
🤔
Yes. Nostr CEO 😉
I want to see the first house sold on Nostr!
I setup a personal relay, very easy
SuperJohn outbox relay
Is that all there is to it?
I think it's that easy. We can have all the infrastructure that we want but if nobody's actually using it, then it doesn't matter.
Agreed there. I'll try to make my investment count!
Thank you Derek, i always apprechiate your humanity you bring into the space!
Life is PoW
Where is the foss algo repo?
bingo
very cool with the old world building in the middle too
could you send me a printed copy of this art?
i would pay with sats, maybe 100cm x 100cm size
This is awesome , keep up the amazing work
Iam inside❤️
yeah i will be in it too
i payed 2100 sats
That’s amazing 🚀🚀🚀 it’s truly is
That’s what I was thinking too
I do what i can! Should post here more though and am working on it!
NOSTR & Free Speech
Maintaining our rights is not ‘easy’ and we will lose them if we remain idle.
Will have a crack at figuring this out at some point
nostr is the future
Well said @Derek Ross 🤝
Yes and it works✍️ its all about creation and discipline🤙
Web of trust
Basically your friends
Look at it maybe as like your building relationships and Nostr is kinda the reputation layer of your online identity???
Seems that printing money is the way forward for you.
🎯
1 click relay + client should become the norm
Aye 🤜⚡🤛
