cypherhoodlum on Nostr: Bitcoin and Nostr are different though, because Nostr doesn't have any consensus ...
Bitcoin and Nostr are different though, because Nostr doesn't have any consensus algorithm. If you stubbornly choose the wrong chain, you lose money or degrade your security. If you choose "the wrong nostr client" (which doesn't exist) your client is not interoperable with other clients. Factions emerge and social networks split, but there is no economical incentive to switch clients whatsoever.
