everything is about status. it's the primary motivation of most people after surviving, and sometimes it Trump's even that.

but I disagree with Naval here. money obsession is neither low or high status. there are lots of high status people obsessed with money like Warren Buffett, Kevin O'Leary, Jamie Dimon, etc. there are also lots of low status people obsessed with money.

what makes an obsession with money high status is how hard it is to get into that position. being a hedge fund manager is high status. flipping burgers is not, but both can be equally obsessed with money.

if I'm right, some ranking board of most zapped accounts or notes would make Nostr just as much a status game
