Just wanted to take a minute to thank everyone who helped point people in the direction of this new account today and also extend one more massive thank you to @miljan and @The Daniel 🖖.
I found out my old nsec had been compromised early yesterday evening, and it was quite a punch to the gut. I felt vulnerable, as I had no idea how the private key was discovered/compromised (I still don’t).
Thoughts like “I’m done with Nostr” went through my mind for a moment. It’d been a stressful few weeks starting a new gig and the last thing I felt like dealing with was getting this new npub established.
But @The Daniel 🖖 reached out right when he saw that the account had been compromised (someone shared that it had been here on Nostr) and offered to help in any way he could. He was online with me last night until after 10 PM ET building tools for me to help transfer my info from my old account to a new one.
He was also the one who put me in touch with @miljan, who, by this morning when I woke up, had already messaged me saying he’d transfer my Primal Legend status to my new npub. One hour after I respond to him, the status had been transferred. He also helped me with the messaging to make sure people knew my old nsec had been compromised and that the new account/npub was legit.
Then, as all the zaps and support came in this morning, I was reminded of why I came to Nostr in the first place: the community.
We’re all here trying to build this thing out together, and when I stumbled, you all helped me back up. In the process, my feeling of vulnerability inverted. I feel more supported by this community than ever, and I’m deeply grateful for that.
As a thank you to @miljan, I’m going to purchase a Primal Premium subscription for my other account - @newrenaissancecapital. As for @The Daniel 🖖, I often see him around NYC, so I’ll have to get him a drink or pay him back in some other way.
And there was also one last thing I wanted to share about him…
It felt quite serendipitous that I published a piece this morning on another community he supports, the @Harlem Bitcoin 🗽🧡 community.
I’m sharing the piece below just to show you all how good of a guy he is both here amongst the Nostriches and IRL.
He’s a true believer in freedom tech and community. We’re extremely lucky to have both him and @miljan in this space with us, and I’d once again just like to say how grateful I am for how they both helped me out in the last 24 hours.
Much love, @The Daniel 🖖, @miljan, and Nostr fam.
