Derek Ross, proud owner of the #5 most followed account on the REAL bird app, joins me today to discuss all things NOSTR! This was an incredible discussion ranging from a walkthrough of basic Nostr terminology for newbies (clients, relays, zaps, etc.), to how Value-4-Value changes the monetization game for content creators, all the way to how the combination of #Bitcoin (decentralized money) and #Nostr (decentralized social media) is the ultimate thanos snap that will blow a hole in the modern-day status quo of walled gardens and centralized platforms, changing lives across the world in profound ways we are only just beginning to comprehend.
