<h2 id="step-1-create-your-identity-and-get-your-private-key-for-a-browser-extension-2">Step 1: Create your identity and get your private key for a browser extension</h2>
<p>I started with the Snort client on my local home server. It created my private/public key pair and I was good to go. Then I transferred the private key to Amethyst, a pretty good Android-based client. Before looking at various clients and other nostr-based websites, I tried transferring my private key into a browser extension.
I looked at Alby and nos2x. I chose the latter because I wanted to keep my Lightning wallet separate from my identity management. You don't have to, I just found it easier.</p>
<h2 id="step-2-if-you-re-confused-always-check-your-feed-settings-2">Step 2: If you're confused, always check your feed settings</h2>
<p>I tried many different clients and was very confused at first. Due to its decentralized nature, Nostr relies on relays, which are just small servers, and to each one you can connect to, all your data is stored. When you post a message, write a note, an article like this or simply who you follow. The main reason and benefit for this is that there is no single point of failure or server-like entity that could be censored.
The side effect of this, combined with using different clients, was that not only did it look different everywhere, but the content was also very different. This was simply because I wasn't connected to all my different clients with the same relays. But the main reason why each feed looks different on each client is usually because you can choose different variations of feeds and some clients even offer filters for the feeds.</p>
<p>Scroll down to get a small overview of the clients I've tried.</p>
<h2 id="step-3-set-up-your-lightning-wallet-with-something-like-wallet-of-satoshi-2">Step 3: Set up your lightning wallet with something like Wallet of Satoshi</h2>
<p>I made my Bitcoin Lightning wallet independent of my identity. That's why I just went with the number one Lightning wallet on the market: Satoshi's Wallet. It's very simple and provides you with a Lightning address that resembles and has the format of an email address. You can add this address to your Nostr profile description and you're ready to receive Sats. Anyone can send them to you, e.g. for a good message or something else they find valuable on Nostr (like a podcast, a video, an article, ...).
Just be aware that Satoshi's wallet contains your key and the sats you have there are not really your sats. So only leave a small amount there or no more than you need for your nostr experience.</p>
<h2 id="step-4-set-up-your-nostr-address-2">Step 4: Set up your Nostr address</h2>
<p>I set up a unique NIP-05 identifier that is human readable and also looks like an email address. For me, that's tobiya@nostrplebs.com, also called a nostr address. It's much easier to read, share and remember than your public key, which is just a long, unwieldy string of characters.</p>
<p>Some popular services are:
* NostrVerified
* Alby
* Iris
* Primal
* Snort
* nostrplebs.com</p>
<p>Most offer free services or at least a free tier. I chose nostrplebs.com because it links my Nostr address (tobiya@nostrplebs.com) to my Lightning wallet. ⚡</p>
<h2 id="brief-overview-of-the-clients-i-have-tested-2">Brief overview of the clients (I have tested)</h2>
<h3 id="web-browser-2">Web/Browser:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Primal</strong>: Fast, user-friendly, nice looking, easy to use</li>
<li><strong>Coracle</strong>: Focuses on decentralized reputation, privacy and trust metrics. Also well organized and structured</li>
<li><strong>noStrudel</strong>: The most comprehensive I've found, has everything</li>
<li><strong>Rabbit</strong>: Designed like X (Twitter) Pro, focuses on everything at once</li>
<li><strong>Nostter</strong>: Clearly structured, easy to find what you're looking for</li>
<li><strong>Snort</strong>: Fast web client for those who prefer simplicity and speed.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="ios-2">iOS</h3>
<p>I'm not an iPhone user, but everything I've discovered says that Damus is the best app for iOS.</p>
<h3 id="android-2">Android:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Amethyst</strong>: Feature rich for Android, I only tried this program because it gives me everything I currently need on my phone.</li>
<li><strong>Primal</strong>: Works seamlessly with Primal on the web, which is a pretty convenient starting point if you only want to use one client.</li>
</ul>
<p>As for the web clients, I'm still figuring out which one will be my favorite. But I think they're all good in their own way. In the time of writing, I am mainly using Primal on Android and Web, Amethyst and noStrudel.</p>

<h2 id="step-1-create-your-identity-and-get-your-private-key-for-a-browser-extension-14">Step 1: Create your identity and get your private key for a browser extension</h2>
<p>I started with the Snort client on my local home server. It created my private/public key pair and I was good to go. Then I transferred the private key to Amethyst, a pretty good Android-based client. Before looking at various clients and other nostr-based websites, I tried transferring my private key into a browser extension.
I looked at Alby and nos2x. I chose the latter because I wanted to keep my Lightning wallet separate from my identity management. You don't have to, I just found it easier.</p>
<h2 id="step-2-if-you-re-confused-always-check-your-feed-settings-14">Step 2: If you're confused, always check your feed settings</h2>
<p>I tried many different clients and was very confused at first. Due to its decentralized nature, Nostr relies on relays, which are just small servers, and to each one you can connect to, all your data is stored. When you post a message, write a note, an article like this or simply who you follow. The main reason and benefit for this is that there is no single point of failure or server-like entity that could be censored.
The side effect of this, combined with using different clients, was that not only did it look different everywhere, but the content was also very different. This was simply because I wasn't connected to all my different clients with the same relays. But the main reason why each feed looks different on each client is usually because you can choose different variations of feeds and some clients even offer filters for the feeds.</p>
<p>Scroll down to get a small overview of the clients I've tried.</p>
<h2 id="step-3-set-up-your-lightning-wallet-with-something-like-wallet-of-satoshi-14">Step 3: Set up your lightning wallet with something like Wallet of Satoshi</h2>
<p>I made my Bitcoin Lightning wallet independent of my identity. That's why I just went with the number one Lightning wallet on the market: Satoshi's Wallet. It's very simple and provides you with a Lightning address that resembles and has the format of an email address. You can add this address to your Nostr profile description and you're ready to receive Sats. Anyone can send them to you, e.g. for a good message or something else they find valuable on Nostr (like a podcast, a video, an article, ...).
Just be aware that Satoshi's wallet contains your key and the sats you have there are not really your sats. So only leave a small amount there or no more than you need for your nostr experience.</p>
<h2 id="step-4-set-up-your-nostr-address-14">Step 4: Set up your Nostr address</h2>
<p>I set up a unique NIP-05 identifier that is human readable and also looks like an email address. For me, that's tobiya@nostrplebs.com, also called a nostr address. It's much easier to read, share and remember than your public key, which is just a long, unwieldy string of characters.</p>
<p>Some popular services are:
* NostrVerified
* Alby
* Iris
* Primal
* Snort
* nostrplebs.com</p>
<p>Most offer free services or at least a free tier. I chose nostrplebs.com because it links my Nostr address (tobiya@nostrplebs.com) to my Lightning wallet. ⚡</p>
<h2 id="brief-overview-of-the-clients-i-have-tested-14">Brief overview of the clients (I have tested)</h2>
<h3 id="web-browser-14">Web/Browser:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Primal</strong>: Fast, user-friendly, nice looking, easy to use</li>
<li><strong>Coracle</strong>: Focuses on decentralized reputation, privacy and trust metrics. Also well organized and structured</li>
<li><strong>noStrudel</strong>: The most comprehensive I've found, has everything</li>
<li><strong>Rabbit</strong>: Designed like X (Twitter) Pro, focuses on everything at once</li>
<li><strong>Nostter</strong>: Clearly structured, easy to find what you're looking for</li>
<li><strong>Snort</strong>: Fast web client for those who prefer simplicity and speed.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="ios-14">iOS</h3>
<p>I'm not an iPhone user, but everything I've discovered says that Damus is the best app for iOS.</p>
<h3 id="android-14">Android:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Amethyst</strong>: Feature rich for Android, I only tried this program because it gives me everything I currently need on my phone.</li>
<li><strong>Primal</strong>: Works seamlessly with Primal on the web, which is a pretty convenient starting point if you only want to use one client.</li>
</ul>
<p>As for the web clients, I'm still figuring out which one will be my favorite. But I think they're all good in their own way. In the time of writing, I am mainly using Primal on Android and Web, Amethyst and noStrudel.</p>

<h2 id="step-3-set-up-your-lightning-wallet-with-something-like-wallet-of-satoshi-26">Step 3: Set up your lightning wallet with something like Wallet of Satoshi</h2>
<p>I made my Bitcoin Lightning wallet independent of my identity. That's why I just went with the number one Lightning wallet on the market: Satoshi's Wallet. It's very simple and provides you with a Lightning address that resembles and has the format of an email address. You can add this address to your Nostr profile description and you're ready to receive Sats. Anyone can send them to you, e.g. for a good message or something else they find valuable on Nostr (like a podcast, a video, an article, ...).
Just be aware that Satoshi's wallet contains your key and the sats you have there are not really your sats. So only leave a small amount there or no more than you need for your nostr experience.</p>
<h2 id="step-4-set-up-your-nostr-address-26">Step 4: Set up your Nostr address</h2>
<p>I set up a unique NIP-05 identifier that is human readable and also looks like an email address. For me, that's tobiya@nostrplebs.com, also called a nostr address. It's much easier to read, share and remember than your public key, which is just a long, unwieldy string of characters.</p>
<p>Some popular services are:
* NostrVerified
* Alby
* Iris
* Primal
* Snort
* nostrplebs.com</p>
<p>Most offer free services or at least a free tier. I chose nostrplebs.com because it links my Nostr address (tobiya@nostrplebs.com) to my Lightning wallet. ⚡</p>
<h2 id="brief-overview-of-the-clients-i-have-tested-26">Brief overview of the clients (I have tested)</h2>
<h3 id="web-browser-26">Web/Browser:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Primal</strong>: Fast, user-friendly, nice looking, easy to use</li>
<li><strong>Coracle</strong>: Focuses on decentralized reputation, privacy and trust metrics. Also well organized and structured</li>
<li><strong>noStrudel</strong>: The most comprehensive I've found, has everything</li>
<li><strong>Rabbit</strong>: Designed like X (Twitter) Pro, focuses on everything at once</li>
<li><strong>Nostter</strong>: Clearly structured, easy to find what you're looking for</li>
<li><strong>Snort</strong>: Fast web client for those who prefer simplicity and speed.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="ios-26">iOS</h3>
<p>I'm not an iPhone user, but everything I've discovered says that Damus is the best app for iOS.</p>
<h3 id="android-26">Android:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Amethyst</strong>: Feature rich for Android, I only tried this program because it gives me everything I currently need on my phone.</li>
<li><strong>Primal</strong>: Works seamlessly with Primal on the web, which is a pretty convenient starting point if you only want to use one client.</li>
</ul>
<p>As for the web clients, I'm still figuring out which one will be my favorite. But I think they're all good in their own way. In the time of writing, I am mainly using Primal on Android and Web, Amethyst and noStrudel.</p>

<h2 id="step-1-create-your-identity-and-get-your-private-key-for-a-browser-extension-29">Step 1: Create your identity and get your private key for a browser extension</h2>
<p>I started with the Snort client on my local home server. It created my private/public key pair and I was good to go. Then I transferred the private key to Amethyst, a pretty good Android-based client. Before looking at various clients and other nostr-based websites, I tried transferring my private key into a browser extension.
I looked at Alby and nos2x. I chose the latter because I wanted to keep my Lightning wallet separate from my identity management. You don't have to, I just found it easier.</p>
<h2 id="step-2-if-you-re-confused-always-check-your-feed-settings-29">Step 2: If you're confused, always check your feed settings</h2>
<p>I tried many different clients and was very confused at first. Due to its decentralized nature, Nostr relies on relays, which are just small servers, and to each one you can connect to, all your data is stored. When you post a message, write a note, an article like this or simply who you follow. The main reason and benefit for this is that there is no single point of failure or server-like entity that could be censored.
The side effect of this, combined with using different clients, was that not only did it look different everywhere, but the content was also very different. This was simply because I wasn't connected to all my different clients with the same relays. But the main reason why each feed looks different on each client is usually because you can choose different variations of feeds and some clients even offer filters for the feeds.</p>

<h2 id="step-1-create-your-identity-and-get-your-private-key-for-a-browser-extension-41">Step 1: Create your identity and get your private key for a browser extension</h2>
<p>I started with the Snort client on my local home server. It created my private/public key pair and I was good to go. Then I transferred the private key to Amethyst, a pretty good Android-based client. Before looking at various clients and other nostr-based websites, I tried transferring my private key into a browser extension.
I looked at Alby and nos2x. I chose the latter because I wanted to keep my Lightning wallet separate from my identity management. You don't have to, I just found it easier.</p>
<h2 id="step-2-if-you-re-confused-always-check-your-feed-settings-41">Step 2: If you're confused, always check your feed settings</h2>
<p>I tried many different clients and was very confused at first. Due to its decentralized nature, Nostr relies on relays, which are just small servers, and to each one you can connect to, all your data is stored. When you post a message, write a note, an article like this or simply who you follow. The main reason and benefit for this is that there is no single point of failure or server-like entity that could be censored.
The side effect of this, combined with using different clients, was that not only did it look different everywhere, but the content was also very different. This was simply because I wasn't connected to all my different clients with the same relays. But the main reason why each feed looks different on each client is usually because you can choose different variations of feeds and some clients even offer filters for the feeds.</p>

<h2 id="step-3-set-up-your-lightning-wallet-with-something-like-wallet-of-satoshi-41">Step 3: Set up your lightning wallet with something like Wallet of Satoshi</h2>
<p>I made my Bitcoin Lightning wallet independent of my identity. That's why I just went with the number one Lightning wallet on the market: Satoshi's Wallet. It's very simple and provides you with a Lightning address that resembles and has the format of an email address. You can add this address to your Nostr profile description and you're ready to receive Sats. Anyone can send them to you, e.g. for a good message or something else they find valuable on Nostr (like a podcast, a video, an article, ...).
Just be aware that Satoshi's wallet contains your key and the sats you have there are not really your sats. So only leave a small amount there or no more than you need for your nostr experience.</p>
<h2 id="step-4-set-up-your-nostr-address-41">Step 4: Set up your Nostr address</h2>
<p>I set up a unique NIP-05 identifier that is human readable and also looks like an email address. For me, that's tobiya@nostrplebs.com, also called a nostr address. It's much easier to read, share and remember than your public key, which is just a long, unwieldy string of characters.</p>
<p>Some popular services are:
* NostrVerified
* Alby
* Iris
* Primal
* Snort
* nostrplebs.com</p>
<p>Most offer free services or at least a free tier. I chose nostrplebs.com because it links my Nostr address (tobiya@nostrplebs.com) to my Lightning wallet. ⚡</p>

<h2 id="the-evolution-of-web-3-0-bitcoin-s-role-in-decentralizing-the-internet-2">The Evolution of Web 3.0: Bitcoin's Role in Decentralizing the Internet</h2>
<h3 id="introduction-to-web-3-0-2">Introduction to Web 3.0</h3>
<p>Web 3.0, often referred to as the decentralized web, represents the next phase in the evolution of the internet. Unlike its predecessors, Web 3.0 aims to redistribute control from centralized entities back to individual users through technologies like blockchain, cryptocurrencies, and decentralized applications (dApps). This shift promises a more democratic internet where users control their data, identity, and digital destiny.</p>
<h2 id="the-bitcoin-protocol-a-foundation-for-web-3-0-2">The Bitcoin Protocol: A Foundation for Web 3.0</h2>
<h3 id="bitcoin-s-influence-on-decentralization-2">Bitcoin's Influence on Decentralization</h3>
<p>Bitcoin, introduced in 2008, can be seen as a precursor to Web 3.0 due to its decentralized nature. The Bitcoin protocol introduced the world to blockchain technology, a decentralized ledger that records all transactions across a network of computers. This technology underpins Web 3.0's ethos by:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Promoting Decentralization</strong>: Bitcoin's network operates without a central authority, showcasing how internet services could run on similar principles, reducing the power of centralized tech giants.</li>
<li><strong>Enhancing Security and Privacy</strong>: Through cryptographic means, Bitcoin ensures that transactions are secure and pseudonymus, a feature integral to Web 3.0's vision of user-controlled data.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="scalability-and-functionality-challenges-2">Scalability and Functionality Challenges</h3>
<p>However, Bitcoin's protocol wasn't designed on the base layer with the complex applications of Web 3.0 in mind. Its primary function as a digital currency means:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Scalability Issues</strong>: Bitcoin's blockchain has limitations in transaction speed and volume, which might not suffice for a fully realized Web 3.0 environment where millions of micro-transactions could occur seamlessly.</li>
<li><strong>Limited Smart Contract Capabilities</strong>: Bitcoin's scripting language isn't as versatile as platforms like Ethereum, which are designed to support a broader range of decentralized applications.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="expanding-bitcoin-s-role-with-layer-2-solutions-2">Expanding Bitcoin's Role with Layer 2 Solutions</h3>
<p>To bridge these gaps, developers are working on Layer 2 solutions like the Lightning Network for faster transactions, and projects like Stacks aim to bring smart contract functionality directly to Bitcoin. These innovations suggest that while Bitcoin might not be the sole backbone of Web 3.0 yet, it can significantly contribute to its infrastructure. In the long term, the question is whether we need more than one network, I mean, we don't have multiple Internets today. The market will probably decide in favor of the strongest and most secure network, and Bitcoin is by far that.</p>
<h2 id="web-3-0-beyond-bitcoin-2">Web 3.0 Beyond Bitcoin</h2>
<h3 id="a-broader-blockchain-ecosystem-2">A Broader Blockchain Ecosystem</h3>
<p>At the moment Web 3.0 encompasses by far more than just Bitcoin. It includes:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Ethereum and Smart Contracts</strong>: Ethereum's introduction of smart contracts has been pivotal, allowing for decentralized applications that can interact in complex ways, far beyond simple transactions.</li>
<li><strong>Other Blockchains</strong>: Platforms like Solana, Sui, and Near are gaining traction for their high throughput and lower costs, addressing some of Bitcoin's limitations on the base layer.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="the-cultural-and-economic-shift-2">The Cultural and Economic Shift</h2>
<p>The move towards Web 3.0 isn't just technological but cultural. There's a growing sentiment, reflected in posts on platforms like X, that users are ready for a change where they own their digital presence. Here's some background based on general knowledge and trends up to 2024:</p>
<h3 id="cultural-shift-2">Cultural Shift:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Distrust in Centralized Institutions</strong>: There's been a growing distrust in traditional centralized institutions like banks, governments, and large corporations. This distrust stems from various scandals, data breaches, privacy concerns, and perceived inefficiencies or corruption. Posts on platforms like X or even more on Nostr reflect this sentiment, where users often discuss the diminishing trust in these institutions.</li>
<li><strong>Rise of Individual Empowerment</strong>: Culturally, there's a move towards empowerment of the individual, facilitated by technology. Social media, blockchain, and other decentralized technologies give individuals tools to bypass traditional gatekeepers in finance, media, and more. This shift champions the idea that individuals should have more control over their data, finances, and digital identity.</li>
<li><strong>Identity and Community</strong>: Decentralization also touches on identity politics and community governance. There's a trend towards localism or regionalism where communities seek more control over their governance, which can be seen in movements for local autonomy or even secessionist sentiments in various parts of the world.</li>
<li><strong>Cultural Movements</strong>: Movements like the maker culture, DIY (Do It Yourself), open-source software, and even the gig economy reflect a cultural shift towards decentralization where individuals or small groups can produce, create, or work independently of large entities.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="economic-shift-2">Economic Shift:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Decentralized Finance (DeFi)</strong>: DeFi represents one of the most tangible shifts, aiming to recreate and potentially improve financial systems outside of traditional banking. This includes lending, borrowing, and earning interest in a trustless, permissionless environment, primarily using blockchain technology.</li>
<li><strong>Cryptocurrencies and Tokenization</strong>: The rise of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum symbolizes a move away from centralized monetary systems. Tokenization of assets, from art (NFTs - Non-Fungible Tokens) to real estate, embodies this shift, allowing for fractional ownership and reducing the barriers to investment.</li>
<li><strong>Globalization vs. Localism</strong>: While globalization has interconnected economies, there's a counter-trend where economic decentralization supports local economies. This can be seen in the push for local currencies, community-supported agriculture, or local energy production like solar microgrids.</li>
<li><strong>Work and Employment</strong>: The gig economy, remote work, and digital nomadism are part of this economic shift. Platforms enabling freelance work decentralize employment, moving away from traditional office environments and 9-to-5 jobs.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="general-observations-2">General Observations:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Technology as an Enabler</strong>: Blockchain, the internet, and advancements in communication technology are pivotal in this shift. They provide the infrastructure necessary for decentralization to occur at scale.</li>
<li><strong>Political Implications</strong>: Economically, this shift maybe challenges existing power structures, potentially leading to regulatory battles as seen with cryptocurrencies. Culturally, it might lead to a redefinition of nationalism, community, and individual rights in the digital age.</li>
<li><strong>Challenges</strong>: Despite its promise, decentralization faces hurdles like scalability issues, regulatory pushback, the digital divide, and the potential for new forms of centralization (e.g., large crypto exchanges becoming new central authorities).</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="conclusion-bitcoin-s-place-in-web-3-0-2">Conclusion: Bitcoin's Place in Web 3.0</h2>
<p>Bitcoin's protocol ignited the spark for a decentralized internet, but Web 3.0 is evolving into a multifaceted ecosystem where Bitcoin might play a crucial, though not yet exclusive, role. The integration of Bitcoin with newer technologies and platforms could see it becoming a fundamental layer in the Web 3.0 stack, particularly in areas of value transfer and as a store of value within decentralized finance (DeFi).</p>
<p>As we progress, the synergy between Bitcoin's proven security and stability, combined with the innovation of other blockchain technologies, might just be the blend needed for Web 3.0 to achieve mainstream adoption, ensuring the internet becomes more open, secure, and user-centric.
<em>As stated before, the market will probably decide in favor of the strongest and most secure network, and <strong>Bitcoin</strong> is by far that.</em></p>

<h2 id="money-printing-in-general-2">Money Printing in general</h2>
<p>First of all, we need to make a distinction between money creation by central banks and fractional-reserve banking. Usually, the term money printing or “printer goes brrrrrr” refers to the creation of new central bank money, which is primarily created by central banks through:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Open Market Operations</strong>: Buying government securities, which injects money into the banking system by increasing bank reserves. This is often done electronically, not by physically printing money.</li>
<li><strong>Quantitative Easing (QE)</strong>: Purchasing assets to inject money directly into the economy, aiming to stimulate economic activity by increasing the money supply.</li>
<li><strong>Setting Reserve Requirement</strong>s: Although less about creating money, lowering reserve requirements can indirectly influence money creation by allowing banks to lend more, but as of recent policy changes, this has been set to zero in some systems, shifting focus to interest rates.</li>
<li><strong>Interest on Reserves</strong>: By adjusting the interest rate paid on reserves, central banks influence how much banks are willing to lend, thereby indirectly affecting money creation.</li>
</ul>
<p>This is the first step of money creation, although printing money is usually connected to one of the aforementioned processes, the second step creates much more money through the expansion of credit.</p>
<h2 id="the-mechanics-of-fractional-reserve-banking-2">The Mechanics of Fractional-Reserve Banking</h2>
<h3 id="the-concept-2">The Concept</h3>
<p>In fractional-reserve banking, banks accept deposits from customers and only keep a small fraction of these deposits in reserve, lending out the rest. This practice essentially creates new money because:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Deposits</strong>: When you deposit money, say $1,000, into a bank, that money doesn't just sit there.</li>
<li><strong>Reserves</strong>: If the reserve requirement is 10%, the bank keeps $100 as reserves.</li>
<li><strong>Loans</strong>: The remaining $900 can be loaned out. Here's where money creation begins.</li>
</ul>
<p>Note: Current reserve requirements of the FED (<a href="https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/reservereq.htm">Source</a>) and the ECB (<a href="https://www.ecb.europa.eu/ecb-and-you/explainers/tell-me/html/minimum_reserve_req.en.html">Source</a>) are set at 0% respectively 1%.</p>
<h3 id="example-calculation-of-money-creation-2">Example Calculation of Money Creation</h3>
<ol>
<li><strong>Initial Deposit</strong>: You deposit $1,000 into Bank A.</li>
<li>Bank A's Action:</li>
</ol>
<ul>
<li>Keeps $10 (1%) as reserve.</li>
<li>Loans out $990 to another customer.</li>
</ul>
<ol>
<li><strong>The $990 Loan</strong>: This $990, when spent, might end up in Bank B as someone's deposit.</li>
<li><strong>Bank B's Action</strong>:</li>
</ol>
<ul>
<li>Keeps $9.9 (1% of $990) as reserve.</li>
<li>Can loan out $980.1</li>
</ul>
<ol>
<li><strong>Continuation</strong>: This process repeats, with each cycle creating new deposits from loans.</li>
</ol>
<p>The <strong>Deposit Multiplier</strong> (m) can be calculated as:
* m = 1 divided by Reserve Ration = 1 / Reserve Ration</p>
<p>If the reserve ratio is 1%:
* m = 1 / 1% = 1 / 0.01 = 100</p>
<p>This means, theoretically, an initial deposit of $1,000 could expand to:</p>
<ul>
<li>$1,000 times 100 = $100,000</li>
<li>However, in practice, this is tempered by factors like cash holdings, loan demand, and banks holding excess reserves.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="historical-and-economic-context-2">Historical and Economic Context</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Evolution from Goldsmiths</strong>: The system has its roots in the practices of goldsmiths who issued notes for gold deposits, which eventually circulated as money. This practice evolved into the modern banking system where notes (now digital entries) represent claims on money.</li>
<li><strong>Regulation and Central Banking</strong>: Over time, central banks like the Federal Reserve in the U.S. were established to regulate this process, provide stability, and act as lenders of last resort. The Fed's tools include setting reserve requirements, though this has become less relevant with the shift to a 0% reserve requirement.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="criticisms-and-alternatives-2">Criticisms and Alternatives</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Risk of Bank Runs</strong>: Critics argue that fractional-reserve banking makes the system vulnerable to bank runs, where too many depositors demand their money back at once, which the bank cannot cover since most of the money is loaned out.</li>
<li><strong>Vollgeld Initiative and Full-Reserve Banking</strong>: Movements like Switzerland's Vollgeld Initiative have proposed shifting to full-reserve banking, where banks must hold 100% of deposits in reserve, preventing them from creating money through lending. However, this would significantly alter how banks operate and make profits.
*** Modern Adjustments**: The move to a 0% reserve requirement in the U.S. reflects a shift towards using other monetary policy tools like interest rates on reserves to control money creation and economic stability.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="real-world-implications-2">Real-World Implications</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Money Supply Control</strong>: While banks create money through loans, central banks like the Federal Reserve influence this through monetary policy, adjusting how much money banks can create.</li>
<li><strong>Economic Stability</strong>: The zero reserve requirement might seem to allow infinite money creation, but in reality, banks are constrained by capital requirements, risk assessments, and economic conditions.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="conclusion-2">Conclusion</h2>
<p>Fractional-reserve banking is a dynamic system that significantly influences economic growth by expanding the money supply through debt. While it allows for economic expansion, it also introduces risks of instability, which central banks attempt to mitigate through various policy tools. Understanding this system helps demystify how money flows and grows within an economy, showcasing both its capacity for economic stimulation and its inherent risks. As we move forward, debates continue on how best to balance these aspects to foster economic stability and growth.
In 2009, a new system called Bitcoin emerged that could redefine the rules for money creation.</p>

<h2 id="step-1-create-your-identity-and-get-your-private-key-for-a-browser-extension-50">Step 1: Create your identity and get your private key for a browser extension</h2>
<p>I started with the Snort client on my local home server. It created my private/public key pair and I was good to go. Then I transferred the private key to Amethyst, a pretty good Android-based client. Before looking at various clients and other nostr-based websites, I tried transferring my private key into a browser extension.
I looked at Alby and nos2x. I chose the latter because I wanted to keep my Lightning wallet separate from my identity management. You don't have to, I just found it easier.</p>
<h2 id="step-2-if-you-re-confused-always-check-your-feed-settings-50">Step 2: If you're confused, always check your feed settings</h2>
<p>I tried many different clients and was very confused at first. Due to its decentralized nature, Nostr relies on relays, which are just small servers, and to each one you can connect to, all your data is stored. When you post a message, write a note, an article like this or simply who you follow. The main reason and benefit for this is that there is no single point of failure or server-like entity that could be censored.
The side effect of this, combined with using different clients, was that not only did it look different everywhere, but the content was also very different. This was simply because I wasn't connected to all my different clients with the same relays. But the main reason why each feed looks different on each client is usually because you can choose different variations of feeds and some clients even offer filters for the feeds.</p>
<p>Scroll down to get a small overview of the clients I've tried.</p>
<h2 id="step-3-set-up-your-lightning-wallet-with-something-like-wallet-of-satoshi-50">Step 3: Set up your lightning wallet with something like Wallet of Satoshi</h2>
<p>I made my Bitcoin Lightning wallet independent of my identity. That's why I just went with the number one Lightning wallet on the market: Satoshi's Wallet. It's very simple and provides you with a Lightning address that resembles and has the format of an email address. You can add this address to your Nostr profile description and you're ready to receive Sats. Anyone can send them to you, e.g. for a good message or something else they find valuable on Nostr (like a podcast, a video, an article, ...).
Just be aware that Satoshi's wallet contains your key and the sats you have there are not really your sats. So only leave a small amount there or no more than you need for your nostr experience.</p>
<h2 id="step-4-set-up-your-nostr-address-50">Step 4: Set up your Nostr address</h2>
<p>I set up a unique NIP-05 identifier that is human readable and also looks like an email address. For me, that's tobiya@nostrplebs.com, also called a nostr address. It's much easier to read, share and remember than your public key, which is just a long, unwieldy string of characters.</p>
<p>Some popular services are:
* NostrVerified
* Alby
* Iris
* Primal
* Snort
* nostrplebs.com</p>
<p>Most offer free services or at least a free tier. I chose nostrplebs.com because it links my Nostr address (tobiya@nostrplebs.com) to my Lightning wallet. ⚡</p>

<li><strong>Nostter</strong>: Clearly structured, easy to find what you're looking for</li>
<li><strong>Snort</strong>: Fast web client for those who prefer simplicity and speed.</li>

<p>I'm not an iPhone user, but everything I've discovered says that Damus is the best app for iOS.</p>

<li><strong>Primal</strong>: Works seamlessly with Primal on the web, which is a pretty convenient starting point if you only want to use one client.</li>
</ul>
<p>As for the web clients, I'm still figuring out which one will be my favorite. But I think they're all good in their own way. In the time of writing, I am mainly using Primal on Android and Web, Amethyst and noStrudel.</p>

Then I transferred the private key to Amethyst, a pretty good Android-based client. Before looking at various clients and other nostr-based websites, I tried transferring my private key into a browser extension.
I looked at Alby and nos2x. I chose the latter because I wanted to keep my Lightning wallet separate from my identity management. You don't have to, I just found it easier.</p>
<h2 id="step-2-if-you-re-confused-always-check-your-feed-settings-59">Step 2: If you're confused, always check your feed settings</h2>
<p>I tried many different clients and was very confused at first. Due to its decentralized nature, Nostr relies on relays, which are just small servers, and to each one you can connect to, all your data is stored. When you post a message, write a note, an article like this or simply who you follow. The main reason and benefit for this is that there is no single point of failure or server-like entity that could be censored.
The side effect of this, combined with using different clients, was that not only did it look different everywhere, but the content was also very different. This was simply because I wasn't connected to all my different clients with the same relays. But the main reason why each feed looks different on each client is usually because you can choose different variations of feeds and some clients even offer filters for the feeds.</p>
<p>Scroll down to get a small overview of the clients I've tried.</p>
<h2 id="step-3-set-up-your-lightning-wallet-with-something-like-wallet-of-satoshi-59">Step 3: Set up your lightning wallet with something like Wallet of Satoshi</h2>
<p>I made my Bitcoin Lightning wallet independent of my identity. That's why I just went with the number one Lightning wallet on the market: Satoshi's Wallet. It's very simple and provides you with a Lightning address that resembles and has the format of an email address. You can add this address to your Nostr profile description and you're ready to receive Sats. Anyone can send them to you, e.g. for a good message or something else they find valuable on Nostr (like a podcast, a video, an article, ...).
Just be aware that Satoshi's wallet contains your key and the sats you have there are not really your sats. So only leave a small amount there or no more than you need for your nostr experience.</p>
<h2 id="step-4-set-up-your-nostr-address-59">Step 4: Set up your Nostr address</h2>
<p>I set up a unique NIP-05 identifier that is human readable and also looks like an email address. For me, that's tobiya@nostrplebs.com, also called a nostr address. It's much easier to read, share and remember than your public key, which is just a long, unwieldy string of characters.</p>
<p>Some popular services are:
* NostrVerified
* Alby
* Iris
* Primal
* Snort
* nostrplebs.com</p>
<p>Most offer free services or at least a free tier. I chose nostrplebs.com because it links my Nostr address (tobiya@nostrplebs.com) to my Lightning wallet. ⚡</p>
<h2 id="brief-overview-of-the-clients-i-have-tested-59">Brief overview of the clients (I have tested)</h2>
<h3 id="web-browser-59">Web/Browser:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Primal</strong>: Fast, user-friendly, nice looking, easy to use</li>
<li><strong>Coracle</strong>: Focuses on decentralized reputation, privacy and trust metrics. Also well organized and structured</li>
<li><strong>noStrudel</strong>: The most comprehensive I've found, has everything</li>
<li><strong>Rabbit</strong>: Designed like X (Twitter) Pro, focuses on everything at once</li>
<li><strong>Nostter</strong>: Clearly structured, easy to find what you're looking for</li>
<li><strong>Snort</strong>: Fast web client for those who prefer simplicity and speed.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="ios-59">iOS</h3>
<p>I'm not an iPhone user, but everything I've discovered says that Damus is the best app for iOS.</p>
<h3 id="android-59">Android:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Amethyst</strong>: Feature rich for Android, I only tried this program because it gives me everything I currently need on my phone.</li>
<li><strong>Primal</strong>: Works seamlessly with Primal on the web, which is a pretty convenient starting point if you only want to use one client.</li>
</ul>
<p>As for the web clients, I'm still figuring out which one will be my favorite. But I think they're all good in their own way. In the time of writing, I am mainly using Primal on Android and Web, Amethyst and noStrudel.</p>

<h2 id="step-1-create-your-identity-and-get-your-private-key-for-a-browser-extension-74">Step 1: Create your identity and get your private key for a browser extension</h2>
<p>I started with the Snort client on my local home server. It created my private/public key pair and I was good to go. Then I transferred the private key to Amethyst, a pretty good Android-based client. Before looking at various clients and other nostr-based websites, I tried transferring my private key into a browser extension.
I looked at Alby and nos2x. I chose the latter because I wanted to keep my Lightning wallet separate from my identity management. You don't have to, I just found it easier.</p>
<h2 id="step-2-if-you-re-confused-always-check-your-feed-settings-74">Step 2: If you're confused, always check your feed settings</h2>
<p>I tried many different clients and was very confused at first. Due to its decentralized nature, Nostr relies on relays, which are just small servers, and to each one you can connect to, all your data is stored. When you post a message, write a note, an article like this or simply who you follow. The main reason and benefit for this is that there is no single point of failure or server-like entity that could be censored.
The side effect of this, combined with using different clients, was that not only did it look different everywhere, but the content was also very different. This was simply because I wasn't connected to all my different clients with the same relays. But the main reason why each feed looks different on each client is usually because you can choose different variations of feeds and some clients even offer filters for the feeds.</p>

<h2 id="step-3-set-up-your-lightning-wallet-with-something-like-wallet-of-satoshi-74">Step 3: Set up your lightning wallet with something like Wallet of Satoshi</h2>
<p>I made my Bitcoin Lightning wallet independent of my identity. That's why I just went with the number one Lightning wallet on the market: Satoshi's Wallet. It's very simple and provides you with a Lightning address that resembles and has the format of an email address. You can add this address to your Nostr profile description and you're ready to receive Sats. Anyone can send them to you, e.g. for a good message or something else they find valuable on Nostr (like a podcast, a video, an article, ...).
Just be aware that Satoshi's wallet contains your key and the sats you have there are not really your sats. So only leave a small amount there or no more than you need for your nostr experience.</p>
<h2 id="step-4-set-up-your-nostr-address-74">Step 4: Set up your Nostr address</h2>
<p>I set up a unique NIP-05 identifier that is human readable and also looks like an email address. For me, that's tobiya@nostrplebs.com, also called a nostr address. It's much easier to read, share and remember than your public key, which is just a long, unwieldy string of characters.</p>
<p>Some popular services are:
* NostrVerified
* Alby
* Iris
* Primal
* Snort
* nostrplebs.com</p>
<p>Most offer free services or at least a free tier. I chose nostrplebs.com because it links my Nostr address (tobiya@nostrplebs.com) to my Lightning wallet. ⚡</p>

<h2 id="step-1-create-your-identity-and-get-your-private-key-for-a-browser-extension-86">Step 1: Create your identity and get your private key for a browser extension</h2>
<p>I started with the Snort client on my local home server. It created my private/public key pair and I was good to go. Then I transferred the private key to Amethyst, a pretty good Android-based client. Before looking at various clients and other nostr-based websites, I tried transferring my private key into a browser extension.
I looked at Alby and nos2x. I chose the latter because I wanted to keep my Lightning wallet separate from my identity management. You don't have to, I just found it easier.</p>
<h2 id="step-2-if-you-re-confused-always-check-your-feed-settings-86">Step 2: If you're confused, always check your feed settings</h2>
<p>I tried many different clients and was very confused at first. Due to its decentralized nature, Nostr relies on relays, which are just small servers, and to each one you can connect to, all your data is stored. When you post a message, write a note, an article like this or simply who you follow. The main reason and benefit for this is that there is no single point of failure or server-like entity that could be censored.
The side effect of this, combined with using different clients, was that not only did it look different everywhere, but the content was also very different. This was simply because I wasn't connected to all my different clients with the same relays. But the main reason why each feed looks different on each client is usually because you can choose different variations of feeds and some clients even offer filters for the feeds.</p>
<p>Scroll down to get a small overview of the clients I've tried.</p>
<h2 id="step-3-set-up-your-lightning-wallet-with-something-like-wallet-of-satoshi-86">Step 3: Set up your lightning wallet with something like Wallet of Satoshi</h2>
<p>I made my Bitcoin Lightning wallet independent of my identity. That's why I just went with the number one Lightning wallet on the market: Satoshi's Wallet. It's very simple and provides you with a Lightning address that resembles and has the format of an email address. You can add this address to your Nostr profile description and you're ready to receive Sats. Anyone can send them to you, e.g. for a good message or something else they find valuable on Nostr (like a podcast, a video, an article, ...).
Just be aware that Satoshi's wallet contains your key and the sats you have there are not really your sats. So only leave a small amount there or no more than you need for your nostr experience.</p>
<h2 id="step-4-set-up-your-nostr-address-86">Step 4: Set up your Nostr address</h2>
<p>I set up a unique NIP-05 identifier that is human readable and also looks like an email address. For me, that's tobiya@nostrplebs.com, also called a nostr address. It's much easier to read, share and remember than your public key, which is just a long, unwieldy string of characters.</p>
<p>Some popular services are:
* NostrVerified
* Alby
* Iris
* Primal
* Snort
* nostrplebs.com</p>
<p>Most offer free services or at least a free tier. I chose nostrplebs.com because it links my Nostr address (tobiya@nostrplebs.com) to my Lightning wallet. ⚡</p>

<h2 id="step-2-if-you-re-confused-always-check-your-feed-settings-98">Step 2: If you're confused, always check your feed settings</h2>
<p>I tried many different clients and was very confused at first. Due to its decentralized nature, Nostr relies on relays, which are just small servers, and to each one you can connect to, all your data is stored. When you post a message, write a note, an article like this or simply who you follow. The main reason and benefit for this is that there is no single point of failure or server-like entity that could be censored.
The side effect of this, combined with using different clients, was that not only did it look different everywhere, but the content was also very different. This was simply because I wasn't connected to all my different clients with the same relays. But the main reason why each feed looks different on each client is usually because you can choose different variations of feeds and some clients even offer filters for the feeds.</p>
<p>Scroll down to get a small overview of the clients I've tried.</p>
<h2 id="step-3-set-up-your-lightning-wallet-with-something-like-wallet-of-satoshi-98">Step 3: Set up your lightning wallet with something like Wallet of Satoshi</h2>
<p>I made my Bitcoin Lightning wallet independent of my identity. That's why I just went with the number one Lightning wallet on the market: Satoshi's Wallet. It's very simple and provides you with a Lightning address that resembles and has the format of an email address. You can add this address to your Nostr profile description and you're ready to receive Sats. Anyone can send them to you, e.g. for a good message or something else they find valuable on Nostr (like a podcast, a video, an article, ...).
Just be aware that Satoshi's wallet contains your key and the sats you have there are not really your sats. So only leave a small amount there or no more than you need for your nostr experience.</p>
<h2 id="step-4-set-up-your-nostr-address-98">Step 4: Set up your Nostr address</h2>
<p>I set up a unique NIP-05 identifier that is human readable and also looks like an email address. For me, that's tobiya@nostrplebs.com, also called a nostr address. It's much easier to read, share and remember than your public key, which is just a long, unwieldy string of characters.</p>
<p>Some popular services are:
* NostrVerified
* Alby
* Iris
* Primal
* Snort
* nostrplebs.com</p>
<p>Most offer free services or at least a free tier. I chose nostrplebs.com because it links my Nostr address (tobiya@nostrplebs.com) to my Lightning wallet. ⚡</p>
<h2 id="brief-overview-of-the-clients-i-have-tested-98">Brief overview of the clients (I have tested)</h2>
<h3 id="web-browser-98">Web/Browser:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Primal</strong>: Fast, user-friendly, nice looking, easy to use</li>
<li><strong>Coracle</strong>: Focuses on decentralized reputation, privacy and trust metrics. Also well organized and structured</li>
<li><strong>noStrudel</strong>: The most comprehensive I've found, has everything</li>
<li><strong>Rabbit</strong>: Designed like X (Twitter) Pro, focuses on everything at once</li>
<li><strong>Nostter</strong>: Clearly structured, easy to find what you're looking for</li>
<li><strong>Snort</strong>: Fast web client for those who prefer simplicity and speed.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="ios-98">iOS</h3>
<p>I'm not an iPhone user, but everything I've discovered says that Damus is the best app for iOS.</p>
<h3 id="android-98">Android:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Amethyst</strong>: Feature rich for Android, I only tried this program because it gives me everything I currently need on my phone.</li>
<li><strong>Primal</strong>: Works seamlessly with Primal on the web, which is a pretty convenient starting point if you only want to use one client.</li>
</ul>
<p>As for the web clients, I'm still figuring out which one will be my favorite. But I think they're all good in their own way. In the time of writing, I am mainly using Primal on Android and Web, Amethyst and noStrudel.</p>

<h2 id="unified-login-across-platforms-2">Unified Login Across Platforms</h2>
<p>With Nostr, you use one login for all services, and your followers are seamlessly integrated. So you don't have start anew on every single platform. I think this is a real advantage of Nostr even for people not accustomed to Bitcoin or decentralization in general.</p>
<h2 id="value-for-value-v4v-model-2">Value for Value (V4V) Model</h2>
<p>Embrace the V4V principle where value is exchanged directly between users. Meaning if you find something useful or anohter nostr user was able to help you then you can simply zap him or her some Sats.</p>
<h2 id="blogging-platforms-2">Blogging Platforms</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Habla or Yakihonne</strong>: Since joining Nostr 8 days ago, I've started blogging using Habla, which I found incredibly user-friendly. You can check out my articles directly on some clients like noStrudel, where they appear under my profile. Habla also serves as a great community explorer. Yakihonne, another comprehensive client with an integrated blog editor, caught my eye too, although it didn't sync all my Habla posts, possibly due to relay issues.</li>
<li><strong>Highlighter.com</strong>: Offers a sleek interface for reading articles. On noStrudel, articles are tucked away under the "More" menu.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="presentations-2">Presentations</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Slidestr.net</strong>: This tool transforms your notes into a slideshow, making revisiting old notes quite entertaining.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="video-content-2">Video Content</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Flare.pub</strong>: If you're looking for a YouTube-like experience, Flare.pub is the closest you'll get on Nostr. You can upload, watch videos, and curate playlists. Remember, since Nostr is fundamentally text-based, videos are hosted on traditional servers, but the interface remains decentralized. There's definitely room for more video content, so start creating!</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="live-streaming-2">Live Streaming</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Zapstream</strong>: Offers a smooth streaming experience with a fee of 10 Sats per minute to cover server costs. You can watch streams on clients like Amethyst or noStrudel.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="music-and-podcasts-2">Music and Podcasts</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Wavlake and Tunestr</strong>: Ideal for artists to share music or podcasts. Listeners can enjoy content freely or support creators via zaps, adhering to the V4V model.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="lists-and-grouping-2">Lists and Grouping</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Listr</strong>: A tool for organizing everything from regional user groups to thematic notes or hashtags. You can also follow lists created by others in the Nostr community.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="culinary-arts-2">Culinary Arts</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>zap.cooking</strong>: A haven for aspiring or seasoned chefs, offering a plethora of recipes in a blog format. It's well-organized, allowing you to browse through different categories of recipes.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="marketplaces-2">Marketplaces</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Plebian Market</strong>: Reminiscent of eBay's early days, this marketplace allows easy buying and selling among users.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="community-features-2">Community Features</h2>
<ul>
<li>Many clients like noStrudel, Habla, and Amethyst support community functionalities, enhancing user interaction within Nostr.</li>

<h2 id="step-1-create-your-identity-and-get-your-private-key-for-a-browser-extension-110">Step 1: Create your identity and get your private key for a browser extension</h2>
<p>I started with the Snort client on my local home server. It created my private/public key pair and I was good to go. Then I transferred the private key to Amethyst, a pretty good Android-based client. Before looking at various clients and other nostr-based websites, I tried transferring my private key into a browser extension.
I looked at Alby and nos2x. I chose the latter because I wanted to keep my Lightning wallet separate from my identity management. You don't have to, I just found it easier.</p>
<h2 id="step-2-if-you-re-confused-always-check-your-feed-settings-110">Step 2: If you're confused, always check your feed settings</h2>
<p>I tried many different clients and was very confused at first. Due to its decentralized nature, Nostr relies on relays, which are just small servers, and to each one you can connect to, all your data is stored. When you post a message, write a note, an article like this or simply who you follow. The main reason and benefit for this is that there is no single point of failure or server-like entity that could be censored.
The side effect of this, combined with using different clients, was that not only did it look different everywhere, but the content was also very different. This was simply because I wasn't connected to all my different clients with the same relays. But the main reason why each feed looks different on each client is usually because you can choose different variations of feeds and some clients even offer filters for the feeds.</p>
<p>Scroll down to get a small overview of the clients I've tried.</p>
<h2 id="step-3-set-up-your-lightning-wallet-with-something-like-wallet-of-satoshi-110">Step 3: Set up your lightning wallet with something like Wallet of Satoshi</h2>
<p>I made my Bitcoin Lightning wallet independent of my identity. That's why I just went with the number one Lightning wallet on the market: Satoshi's Wallet. It's very simple and provides you with a Lightning address that resembles and has the format of an email address. You can add this address to your Nostr profile description and you're ready to receive Sats. Anyone can send them to you, e.g. for a good message or something else they find valuable on Nostr (like a podcast, a video, an article, ...).
Just be aware that Satoshi's wallet contains your key and the sats you have there are not really your sats. So only leave a small amount there or no more than you need for your nostr experience.</p>
<h2 id="step-4-set-up-your-nostr-address-110">Step 4: Set up your Nostr address</h2>
<p>I set up a unique NIP-05 identifier that is human readable and also looks like an email address. For me, that's tobiya@nostrplebs.com, also called a nostr address. It's much easier to read, share and remember than your public key, which is just a long, unwieldy string of characters.</p>
<p>Some popular services are:
* NostrVerified
* Alby
* Iris
* Primal
* Snort
* nostrplebs.com</p>
<p>Most offer free services or at least a free tier. I chose nostrplebs.com because it links my Nostr address (tobiya@nostrplebs.com) to my Lightning wallet. ⚡</p>
<h2 id="brief-overview-of-the-clients-i-have-tested-110">Brief overview of the clients (I have tested)</h2>
<h3 id="web-browser-110">Web/Browser:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Primal</strong>: Fast, user-friendly, nice looking, easy to use</li>
<li><strong>Coracle</strong>: Focuses on decentralized reputation, privacy and trust metrics. Also well organized and structured</li>
<li><strong>noStrudel</strong>: The most comprehensive I've found, has everything</li>
<li><strong>Rabbit</strong>: Designed like X (Twitter) Pro, focuses on everything at once</li>
<li><strong>Nostter</strong>: Clearly structured, easy to find what you're looking for</li>
<li><strong>Snort</strong>: Fast web client for those who prefer simplicity and speed.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="ios-110">iOS</h3>
<p>I'm not an iPhone user, but everything I've discovered says that Damus is the best app for iOS.</p>
<h3 id="android-110">Android:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Amethyst</strong>: Feature rich for Android, I only tried this program because it gives me everything I currently need on my phone.</li>
<li><strong>Primal</strong>: Works seamlessly with Primal on the web, which is a pretty convenient starting point if you only want to use one client.</li>
</ul>
<p>As for the web clients, I'm still figuring out which one will be my favorite. But I think they're all good in their own way. In the time of writing, I am mainly using Primal on Android and Web, Amethyst and noStrudel.</p>

<h2 id="step-2-if-you-re-confused-always-check-your-feed-settings-122">Step 2: If you're confused, always check your feed settings</h2>
<p>I tried many different clients and was very confused at first. Due to its decentralized nature, Nostr relies on relays, which are just small servers, and to each one you can connect to, all your data is stored. When you post a message, write a note, an article like this or simply who you follow. The main reason and benefit for this is that there is no single point of failure or server-like entity that could be censored.
The side effect of this, combined with using different clients, was that not only did it look different everywhere, but the content was also very different. This was simply because I wasn't connected to all my different clients with the same relays. But the main reason why each feed looks different on each client is usually because you can choose different variations of feeds and some clients even offer filters for the feeds.</p>

<h2 id="step-3-set-up-your-lightning-wallet-with-something-like-wallet-of-satoshi-122">Step 3: Set up your lightning wallet with something like Wallet of Satoshi</h2>
<p>I made my Bitcoin Lightning wallet independent of my identity. That's why I just went with the number one Lightning wallet on the market: Satoshi's Wallet. It's very simple and provides you with a Lightning address that resembles and has the format of an email address. You can add this address to your Nostr profile description and you're ready to receive Sats. Anyone can send them to you, e.g. for a good message or something else they find valuable on Nostr (like a podcast, a video, an article, ...).
Just be aware that Satoshi's wallet contains your key and the sats you have there are not really your sats. So only leave a small amount there or no more than you need for your nostr experience.</p>
<h2 id="step-4-set-up-your-nostr-address-122">Step 4: Set up your Nostr address</h2>
<p>I set up a unique NIP-05 identifier that is human readable and also looks like an email address. For me, that's tobiya@nostrplebs.com, also called a nostr address. It's much easier to read, share and remember than your public key, which is just a long, unwieldy string of characters.</p>
<p>Some popular services are:
* NostrVerified
* Alby
* Iris
* Primal
* Snort
* nostrplebs.com</p>
<p>Most offer free services or at least a free tier. I chose nostrplebs.com because it links my Nostr address (tobiya@nostrplebs.com) to my Lightning wallet. ⚡</p>

When you post a message, write a note, an article like this or simply who you follow. The main reason and benefit for this is that there is no single point of failure or server-like entity that could be censored.
The side effect of this, combined with using different clients, was that not only did it look different everywhere, but the content was also very different. This was simply because I wasn't connected to all my different clients with the same relays. But the main reason why each feed looks different on each client is usually because you can choose different variations of feeds and some clients even offer filters for the feeds.</p>

<h2 id="step-3-set-up-your-lightning-wallet-with-something-like-wallet-of-satoshi-134">Step 3: Set up your lightning wallet with something like Wallet of Satoshi</h2>
<p>I made my Bitcoin Lightning wallet independent of my identity. That's why I just went with the number one Lightning wallet on the market: Satoshi's Wallet. It's very simple and provides you with a Lightning address that resembles and has the format of an email address. You can add this address to your Nostr profile description and you're ready to receive Sats. Anyone can send them to you, e.g. for a good message or something else they find valuable on Nostr (like a podcast, a video, an article, ...).
Just be aware that Satoshi's wallet contains your key and the sats you have there are not really your sats. So only leave a small amount there or no more than you need for your nostr experience.</p>
<h2 id="step-4-set-up-your-nostr-address-134">Step 4: Set up your Nostr address</h2>
<p>I set up a unique NIP-05 identifier that is human readable and also looks like an email address. For me, that's tobiya@nostrplebs.com, also called a nostr address. It's much easier to read, share and remember than your public key, which is just a long, unwieldy string of characters.</p>
<p>Some popular services are:
* NostrVerified
* Alby
* Iris
* Primal
* Snort
* nostrplebs.com</p>
<p>Most offer free services or at least a free tier. I chose nostrplebs.com because it links my Nostr address (tobiya@nostrplebs.com) to my Lightning wallet. ⚡</p>

<li><strong>Nostter</strong>: Clearly structured, easy to find what you're looking for</li>
<li><strong>Snort</strong>: Fast web client for those who prefer simplicity and speed.</li>

<h3 id="ios-134">iOS</h3>
<p>I'm not an iPhone user, but everything I've discovered says that Damus is the best app for iOS.</p>
<h3 id="android-134">Android:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Amethyst</strong>: Feature rich for Android, I only tried this program because it gives me everything I currently need on my phone.</li>
<li><strong>Primal</strong>: Works seamlessly with Primal on the web, which is a pretty convenient starting point if you only want to use one client.</li>
</ul>
<p>As for the web clients, I'm still figuring out which one will be my favorite. But I think they're all good in their own way. In the time of writing, I am mainly using Primal on Android and Web, Amethyst and noStrudel.</p>

<h2 id="unified-login-across-platforms-5">Unified Login Across Platforms</h2>
<p>With Nostr, you use one login for all services, and your followers are seamlessly integrated. So you don't have start anew on every single platform. I think this is a real advantage of Nostr even for people not accustomed to Bitcoin or decentralization in general.</p>
<h2 id="value-for-value-v4v-model-5">Value for Value (V4V) Model</h2>
<p>Embrace the V4V principle where value is exchanged directly between users. Meaning if you find something useful or anohter nostr user was able to help you then you can simply zap him or her some Sats.</p>
<h2 id="blogging-platforms-5">Blogging Platforms</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Habla or Yakihonne</strong>: Since joining Nostr 8 days ago, I've started blogging using Habla, which I found incredibly user-friendly. You can check out my articles directly on some clients like noStrudel, where they appear under my profile. Habla also serves as a great community explorer. Yakihonne, another comprehensive client with an integrated blog editor, caught my eye too, although it didn't sync all my Habla posts, possibly due to relay issues.</li>
<li><strong>Highlighter.com</strong>: Offers a sleek interface for reading articles. On noStrudel, articles are tucked away under the "More" menu.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="presentations-5">Presentations</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Slidestr.net</strong>: This tool transforms your notes into a slideshow, making revisiting old notes quite entertaining.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="video-content-5">Video Content</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Flare.pub</strong>: If you're looking for a YouTube-like experience, Flare.pub is the closest you'll get on Nostr. You can upload, watch videos, and curate playlists. Remember, since Nostr is fundamentally text-based, videos are hosted on traditional servers, but the interface remains decentralized. There's definitely room for more video content, so start creating!</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="live-streaming-5">Live Streaming</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Zapstream</strong>: Offers a smooth streaming experience with a fee of 10 Sats per minute to cover server costs. You can watch streams on clients like Amethyst or noStrudel.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="music-and-podcasts-5">Music and Podcasts</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Wavlake and Tunestr</strong>: Ideal for artists to share music or podcasts. Listeners can enjoy content freely or support creators via zaps, adhering to the V4V model.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="lists-and-grouping-5">Lists and Grouping</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Listr</strong>: A tool for organizing everything from regional user groups to thematic notes or hashtags. You can also follow lists created by others in the Nostr community.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="culinary-arts-5">Culinary Arts</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>zap.cooking</strong>: A haven for aspiring or seasoned chefs, offering a plethora of recipes in a blog format. It's well-organized, allowing you to browse through different categories of recipes.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="marketplaces-5">Marketplaces</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Plebian Market</strong>: Reminiscent of eBay's early days, this marketplace allows easy buying and selling among users.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="community-features-5">Community Features</h2>
<ul>
<li>Many clients like noStrudel, Habla, and Amethyst support community functionalities, enhancing user interaction within Nostr.</li>

<h2 id="step-4-set-up-your-nostr-address-143">Step 4: Set up your Nostr address</h2>
<p>I set up a unique NIP-05 identifier that is human readable and also looks like an email address. For me, that's tobiya@nostrplebs.com, also called a nostr address. It's much easier to read, share and remember than your public key, which is just a long, unwieldy string of characters.</p>
<p>Some popular services are:
* NostrVerified
* Alby
* Iris
* Primal
* Snort
* nostrplebs.com</p>
<p>Most offer free services or at least a free tier. I chose nostrplebs.com because it links my Nostr address (tobiya@nostrplebs.com) to my Lightning wallet. ⚡</p>

<li><strong>Primal</strong>: Works seamlessly with Primal on the web, which is a pretty convenient starting point if you only want to use one client.</li>

<h2 id="step-1-create-your-identity-and-get-your-private-key-for-a-browser-extension-146">Step 1: Create your identity and get your private key for a browser extension</h2>
<p>I started with the Snort client on my local home server. It created my private/public key pair and I was good to go. Then I transferred the private key to Amethyst, a pretty good Android-based client. Before looking at various clients and other nostr-based websites, I tried transferring my private key into a browser extension.
I looked at Alby and nos2x. I chose the latter because I wanted to keep my Lightning wallet separate from my identity management. You don't have to, I just found it easier.</p>
<h2 id="step-2-if-you-re-confused-always-check-your-feed-settings-146">Step 2: If you're confused, always check your feed settings</h2>
<p>I tried many different clients and was very confused at first. Due to its decentralized nature, Nostr relies on relays, which are just small servers, and to each one you can connect to, all your data is stored. When you post a message, write a note, an article like this or simply who you follow. The main reason and benefit for this is that there is no single point of failure or server-like entity that could be censored.
The side effect of this, combined with using different clients, was that not only did it look different everywhere, but the content was also very different. This was simply because I wasn't connected to all my different clients with the same relays. But the main reason why each feed looks different on each client is usually because you can choose different variations of feeds and some clients even offer filters for the feeds.</p>

<h2 id="step-3-set-up-your-lightning-wallet-with-something-like-wallet-of-satoshi-146">Step 3: Set up your lightning wallet with something like Wallet of Satoshi</h2>
<p>I made my Bitcoin Lightning wallet independent of my identity. That's why I just went with the number one Lightning wallet on the market: Satoshi's Wallet. It's very simple and provides you with a Lightning address that resembles and has the format of an email address. You can add this address to your Nostr profile description and you're ready to receive Sats.

🥰 Some things I discovered lately on Nostr:<br/><br/>☀️ Slideshow:<br/>Slidestr.net: This tool transforms your notes into a slideshow, making revisiting old notes quite entertaining.<br/><br/>🔊 Live Streaming:<br/>Zap.stream: Offers a smooth streaming experience with a fee of 10 Sats per minute to cover server costs. You can watch streams on clients like Amethyst or noStrudel or on Zap.stream for itself. Watching is fee.<br/><br/>🎶 Music and Podcasts<br/>Wavlake and Tunestr: Ideal for artists to share music or podcasts. Listeners can enjoy content freely or support creators via zaps, adhering to the V4V model.<br/><br/>📝 Writing a Blog<br/>You like to write more than a Note on nostr? I recommend Hable for writing blog posts or better called articles on nostr. I started blogging with and because of Habla.<br/><br/><br/>#habla #blog #article #nostr #grownostr #asknostr #introductions #slidestr #zap #stream #music #spotify #podcast

<h2 id="step-1-create-your-identity-and-get-your-private-key-for-a-browser-extension-158">Step 1: Create your identity and get your private key for a browser extension</h2>
<p>I started with the Snort client on my local home server. It created my private/public key pair and I was good to go. Then I transferred the private key to Amethyst, a pretty good Android-based client. Before looking at various clients and other nostr-based websites, I tried transferring my private key into a browser extension.
I looked at Alby and nos2x. I chose the latter because I wanted to keep my Lightning wallet separate from my identity management. You don't have to, I just found it easier.</p>
<h2 id="step-2-if-you-re-confused-always-check-your-feed-settings-158">Step 2: If you're confused, always check your feed settings</h2>
<p>I tried many different clients and was very confused at first. Due to its decentralized nature, Nostr relies on relays, which are just small servers, and to each one you can connect to, all your data is stored. When you post a message, write a note, an article like this or simply who you follow. The main reason and benefit for this is that there is no single point of failure or server-like entity that could be censored.
The side effect of this, combined with using different clients, was that not only did it look different everywhere, but the content was also very different. This was simply because I wasn't connected to all my different clients with the same relays. But the main reason why each feed looks different on each client is usually because you can choose different variations of feeds and some clients even offer filters for the feeds.</p>
<p>Scroll down to get a small overview of the clients I've tried.</p>
<h2 id="step-3-set-up-your-lightning-wallet-with-something-like-wallet-of-satoshi-158">Step 3: Set up your lightning wallet with something like Wallet of Satoshi</h2>
<p>I made my Bitcoin Lightning wallet independent of my identity. That's why I just went with the number one Lightning wallet on the market: Satoshi's Wallet. It's very simple and provides you with a Lightning address that resembles and has the format of an email address. You can add this address to your Nostr profile description and you're ready to receive Sats. Anyone can send them to you, e.g. for a good message or something else they find valuable on Nostr (like a podcast, a video, an article, ...).
Just be aware that Satoshi's wallet contains your key and the sats you have there are not really your sats. So only leave a small amount there or no more than you need for your nostr experience.</p>
<h2 id="step-4-set-up-your-nostr-address-158">Step 4: Set up your Nostr address</h2>
<p>I set up a unique NIP-05 identifier that is human readable and also looks like an email address. For me, that's tobiya@nostrplebs.com, also called a nostr address. It's much easier to read, share and remember than your public key, which is just a long, unwieldy string of characters.</p>
<p>Some popular services are:
* NostrVerified
* Alby
* Iris
* Primal
* Snort
* nostrplebs.com</p>
<p>Most offer free services or at least a free tier. I chose nostrplebs.com because it links my Nostr address (tobiya@nostrplebs.com) to my Lightning wallet. ⚡</p>

It's the strategy to spread risk across various assets to mitigate losses. However, when it comes to Bitcoin, some argue this principle might not apply in the same way. Here's why:</p>
<h2 id="1-bitcoin-s-unique-value-proposition-2">1. Bitcoin's Unique Value Proposition</h2>
<p>Bitcoin, often dubbed "digital gold," has several attributes that set it apart from other investments:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Finite Supply</strong>: With a cap at 21 million coins, Bitcoin's scarcity is programmed into its code, mirroring the scarcity of gold but with even more certainty. This scarcity can drive value as demand increases over time, especially in an economic environment where fiat currencies are subject to inflation.</li>
<li><strong>Decentralization</strong>: Unlike stocks or real estate, Bitcoin isn't tied to any central authority or physical asset that can fail or be manipulated by a single entity. This decentralization reduces the risk of systemic failure that affects traditional markets.</li>
<li><strong>Global Liquidity and Accessibility</strong>: Bitcoin can be bought, sold, and transferred anywhere in the world, 24/7, with internet access. This global liquidity means Bitcoin can be more easily converted to other assets if needed, somewhat reducing the need for diversification.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="2-the-risk-reward-balance-2">2. The Risk-Reward Balance</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Volatility as Opportunity</strong>: While Bitcoin's volatility is often cited as a risk, for the informed investor, this volatility represents opportunities for significant gains. Those who understand Bitcoin's cycles might prefer to ride these waves rather than dilute potential gains through diversification into less volatile assets.</li>
<li><strong>Long-term Appreciation</strong>: Historical data suggests Bitcoin has provided substantial returns over the long term compared to most traditional investments. If one believes in Bitcoin's future as a dominant store of value, holding a diversified portfolio might mean missing out on Bitcoin's potential upside.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="3-bitcoin-as-a-diversifier-2">3. Bitcoin as a Diversifier</h2>
<p>Ironically, Bitcoin itself serves as a diversification tool within traditional investment portfolios. Its price movements have shown low correlation with stocks, bonds, and even gold at times, suggesting that Bitcoin can diversify an investment portfolio on its own.</p>
<h2 id="4-the-philosophical-shift-2">4. The Philosophical Shift</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Trust in Code Over Corporations</strong>: Investing heavily in Bitcoin might reflect a philosophical shift towards trusting mathematical algorithms over corporate governance or government policy. Here, diversification within the crypto space might seem less necessary if one views Bitcoin as the pinnacle of what cryptocurrency should be.</li>
<li><strong>A Bet on a New Financial System</strong>: Holding Bitcoin exclusively can be seen as a bet on a new financial paradigm where Bitcoin becomes the standard. In this vision, diversification into other assets might be counterproductive.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="5-potential-result-2">5. Potential Result</h2>
<p>Upon reviewing the arguments and characteristics, one might conclude that Bitcoin is pursuing a dual trajectory. Firstly, its value increases partly because it remains a novel asset, not yet mainstream among the general populace. Secondly, Bitcoin is poised to absorb the value preservation function from other assets. This means that individuals who invest in stocks, bonds, real estate, commodities, etc., primarily for their value storage capabilities rather than their intrinsic utility (such as residing in a property), might transition to Bitcoin. This shift could consequently diminish the demand for these traditional assets and increase the value of Bitcoin respectively.</p>
<h2 id="6-caveats-and-considerations-2">6. Caveats and Considerations</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Not Without Risks</strong>: This approach isn't without its perils. Bitcoin's future is not guaranteed, and regulatory, technological, or market shifts could impact its value negatively.</li>
<li><strong>Liquidity Needs</strong>: Individual financial situations might require liquidity or income generation that Bitcoin alone might not provide efficiently.</li>
<li><strong>Emotional Discipline</strong>: A Bitcoin-only strategy requires immense discipline and conviction, as the emotional toll of not diversifying can be high during market downturns.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="conclusion-5">Conclusion</h2>
<p>The argument for not diversifying if you hold Bitcoin hinges on its unique properties, the potential for high returns, and its role as a hedge against inflation and traditional financial systems. However, this strategy suits those with a high risk tolerance, a deep understanding of Finance, Economics and Investments, and a belief in Bitcoin's future dominance. For everyone else, while Bitcoin can be a significant part of a portfolio, traditional diversification might still offer peace of mind and stability. Remember, investment strategies should align with personal financial goals, risk tolerance, and market understanding. Always consider consulting with a financial advisor for personalized advice.</p>

I joined #nostr a week ago and learned so much in the last few days 🚀 🌐 I have summarized it to give other newcomers an overview:<br/><blockquote class="border-l-05rem border-l-strongpink border-solid"><div class="-ml-4 bg-gradient-to-r from-gray-100 dark:from-zinc-800 to-transparent mr-0 mt-0 mb-4 pl-4 pr-2 py-2">quoting <br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Article"><a itemprop="url" href="/naddr1qqxnzdejx5cnjv34xqurxvekqgsyd8a8qsmma049788pwhlq8nc84vrtrglmzt5vt2c6p59x9dktwcqrqsqqqa282t2983" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1">naddr1qq…2983</a></span><br/> </div> <p><strong><em>I joined Nostr a week ago and wanted to recap it for myself and also give other newbies a simple introduction.

<h2 id="step-1-create-your-identity-and-get-your-private-key-for-a-browser-extension-167">Step 1: Create your identity and get your private key for a browser extension</h2>
<p>I started with the Snort client on my local home server. It created my private/public key pair and I was good to go. Then I transferred the private key to Amethyst, a pretty good Android-based client. Before looking at various clients and other nostr-based websites, I tried transferring my private key into a browser extension.
I looked at Alby and nos2x. I chose the latter because I wanted to keep my Lightning wallet separate from my identity management. You don't have to, I just found it easier.</p>
<h2 id="step-2-if-you-re-confused-always-check-your-feed-settings-167">Step 2: If you're confused, always check your feed settings</h2>
<p>I tried many different clients and was very confused at first. Due to its decentralized nature, Nostr relies on relays, which are just small servers, and to each one you can connect to, all your data is stored. When you post a message, write a note, an article like this or simply who you follow. The main reason and benefit for this is that there is no single point of failure or server-like entity that could be censored.
The side effect of this, combined with using different clients, was that not only did it look different everywhere, but the content was also very different. This was simply because I wasn't connected to all my different clients with the same relays. But the main reason why each feed looks different on each client is usually because you can choose different variations of feeds and some clients even offer filters for the feeds.</p>
<p>Scroll down to get a small overview of the clients I've tried.</p>
<h2 id="step-3-set-up-your-lightning-wallet-with-something-like-wallet-of-satoshi-167">Step 3: Set up your lightning wallet with something like Wallet of Satoshi</h2>
<p>I made my Bitcoin Lightning wallet independent of my identity. That's why I just went with the number one Lightning wallet on the market: Satoshi's Wallet. It's very simple and provides you with a Lightning address that resembles and has the format of an email address. You can add this address to your Nostr profile description and you're ready to receive Sats. Anyone can send them to you, e.g. for a good message or something else they find valuable on Nostr (like a podcast, a video, an article, ...).
Just be aware that Satoshi's wallet contains your key and the sats you have there are not really your sats. So only leave a small amount there or no more than you need for your nostr experience.</p>
<h2 id="step-4-set-up-your-nostr-address-167">Step 4: Set up your Nostr address</h2>
<p>I set up a unique NIP-05 identifier that is human readable and also looks like an email address. For me, that's tobiya@nostrplebs.com, also called a nostr address. It's much easier to read, share and remember than your public key, which is just a long, unwieldy string of characters.</p>
<p>Some popular services are:
* NostrVerified
* Alby
* Iris
* Primal
* Snort
* nostrplebs.com</p>
<p>Most offer free services or at least a free tier. I chose nostrplebs.com because it links my Nostr address (tobiya@nostrplebs.com) to my Lightning wallet. ⚡</p>
<h2 id="brief-overview-of-the-clients-i-have-tested-167">Brief overview of the clients (I have tested)</h2>
<h3 id="web-browser-167">Web/Browser:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Primal</strong>: Fast, user-friendly, nice looking, easy to use</li>
<li><strong>Coracle</strong>: Focuses on decentralized reputation, privacy and trust metrics. Also well organized and structured</li>
<li><strong>noStrudel</strong>: The most comprehensive I've found, has everything</li>
<li><strong>Rabbit</strong>: Designed like X (Twitter) Pro, focuses on everything at once</li>
<li><strong>Nostter</strong>: Clearly structured, easy to find what you're looking for</li>
<li><strong>Snort</strong>: Fast web client for those who prefer simplicity and speed.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="ios-167">iOS</h3>
<p>I'm not an iPhone user, but everything I've discovered says that Damus is the best app for iOS.</p>
<h3 id="android-167">Android:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Amethyst</strong>: Feature rich for Android, I only tried this program because it gives me everything I currently need on my phone.</li>
<li><strong>Primal</strong>: Works seamlessly with Primal on the web, which is a pretty convenient starting point if you only want to use one client.</li>
</ul>
<p>As for the web clients, I'm still figuring out which one will be my favorite. But I think they're all good in their own way. In the time of writing, I am mainly using Primal on Android and Web, Amethyst and noStrudel.</p>

I joined a week ago and discovered it is totally different.<br/>So I'm a good example but a billnoard would never got me in.
