Why Nostr? What is Njump?

Derek Ross (npub18am…p424) spoke today of "the early days" and how little information was out there, and that the answers were either in the protocol, or happening live in the notes that would (((slowly))) trickle through the relays. Now his NIP05aaS has grown into a complete onboarding experience. His talk threw me into a rabbit hole of nostalgia even though it was merely 3 or so months ago.

One of my first (non-nostr centric) conversations was with TatumTurnUp (npub1hte…sw3d) um Turn Up, who upon traveling during the holidays had forgotten his miners miles away, and was stuck in the cold with no heat. This weekend he is bathing in the sun, with his sandals in the sand in Costa Rica. Can't wait to see your Between (one?) ASIC episode with jack (npub1sg6…f63m) (🫂 thank you for everything you have done and the work that continues)

I remember roya ୨୧ (npub1csa…z4x9)'s first days learning about bitcoin through lightning, having just arrived on nostr and understanding its value to the world. Now she arms herself with the knowledge of the tools of freedom and is quite the royal nostrich (is that a thing?) in her own right.

In December I (and many others) made the cardinal sin of exposing our old private keys in web clients. We armed ourselves with extentions and joined the chorus of people from around the globe transmitted notes in their native tongue. The global feed soon became inundated with many others (literally) exposed privates, just as mobile clients began to take their shape.

Now, paid relays and robust clients have brought some solace from the global feed, and using modern clients I can read automatically-translated notes from people around the world. Nostr makes our world small in a big way.

Not wanting to start any kind of hell thread, I won't name any more names but there are so many memories and stories of people I am glad to be building relationships with and hope to get to know more. 🍑🐶🐙💅🐱🐷🧦🚿☕️

Special shout out to my #NostrAfterDark nostriches.

Pura Vida everyone 🤙💜🫂
