I would hope that the goal would be for Nostr to be for much more than bitcoiners. If there aren't gullible grannies on here eventually Nostr will have failed.
Also saying bitcoiners would never fall for a scam is.... A bit of a stretch.. given that Bitcoin may just be the greatest con of all time. Aside from all the others of course.

Anything is possible, and I do think about it from time to time. I think that’s only normal though, we’re human.
What if bitcoin was the greatest scam of all time? How much money does one person (we’ll assume 1) really need though? And for what?
The more I research and learn about bitcoin though, the more it makes sense.
I haven’t really found anything bad about it.
Bitcoin is BIG, and I think it’s going to change the world as we know it.
These scammers will soon realize it doesn’t pay to scam and they’re better off to just join us. It may take a bit of time, but we’ll get there.
I actually agree. I think Bitcoin has massive problems, but I think they will get solved to a point that it fills a very useful niche. My comment was more about Bitcoiners not falling for scams. It seems anti-true, how many people became bitcoiners only after they really understood how it worked? My guess, not many as evidenced by how few host full-nodes or even self-custody.
People who buy in without a clear understanding or a clear utility (let's be honest it is still hard to spend) are operating in a way that is identical to falling for a scam.
