> Common knowledge depends not only on me knowing that you receive a message but also on the existence of a shared symbolic system which allows me to know how you understand it even if nostr is obvious to me as the right solution, if it's not common knowledge, then it severely restricts its possible reach when trying to communicate it with people since they don't have the language to relay it to others. its not memetic. it doesn't exist in peoples brains like email does. maybe we need superbowl ads lol

dusting off an old book on the shelf i never finished https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_Ritual nostr's problem is that it's not common knowledge. if it was then its applications would be obvious to a lot more people

This reminds of @Gigi ‘s article about bitcoins gravity and the feedback loop Bitcoin has quite a few points of entry into it’s ecosystem, like some are pulled into it through their interest in cryptography, some for it’s censorship resistance features and some for NGU we need to find the right entry points and promote Nostr Or if you have $20m change lying around for a superbowl ad 😁
