Good article. I’d say we’re biased toward our own ideas and that makes them look more important and exciting than they actually are. People fall for this all the time and Nostr devs are no exception.

Agree on grants but also .. we kind of need them for now. Def not enough focus on users from some clients.

Ultimately there are just not enough users to justify any serious self funding into a product because it’s not going to make you any money any time soon. You need venture capital to hopefully make it work financially eventually but it looks like that payback period may take much longer than expected.

I kind of doubt Nostr would survive without open sats. There wouldn’t be too many devs left working on stuff. Some for sure, but they’d get bored eventually and need to pay the bills.
