crypto VCs (and large VCs in general) have completely destroyed any long term alternative investments anything newly released on the open market is by default overpriced and you're left picking for scraps, or you're next to the trough or you're forced into derivatives trading, which is a whole another game... at heart, im a trader and investor it feels like only strategy to accumulate more Bitcoin through these means is buying cyclical bottoms and selling cyclical tops even those are becoming slower and harder to identify through BTC algorithmization and market ossification it's just felt super painful and depressing over the last few years nostr is a breath of fresh air everyone is super fucking laser focused on FOSS and/or building up this new space it's refreshing to see people building and watching @ODELL and co. fund using open sats without the expectation of oh yeah we're gonna build something existing then slap a token on top and then dump on everyone and zero sum this shit to zero

I remember how back in 2018 there was a huge backlash on Twitter against crypto adoption due to the scams getting propagated there it was a huge chance for shitcoin social platforms like investfeed at the time to onboard the entire fucking population of crypto twitter but all they called about was sucking the value out of their tokens show me how nostr is better onboard Brazil do your part towards the adoption and mobilize your friends and acquaintances
