#Nostr is at an absolutely crucial moment. We need to get the core of the protocol stabilized before the investors swoop in and try to capture it for their own commercial interests and state purposes.

I’ve seen this rodeo before with the early internet. Government (except for defence and intelligence) and businesses are largely clueless on early stage protocols and technologies. But once they ‘get it’ (like they did c. 1996-2001), it takes off like wildfire. Fortunately the base protocol of TCP/IP was largely shaken out by then, alongside a few key protocols (DNS, SMTP).

In the end, the window is closing for open, principles-base development. OpenSats is one of the few organizations that recognize and supports this. You can ask for support, or even better, build according to your own principles before the big wave hits.

Onward! nostr:note1ud57jjxmp7zq408hrmk4q8m6rxytqlnhd02w4ymv5lgxj72gpw9q3fnn72
