fiatjaf (npub180c…h6w6) created Nostr. He’s been working full time at ZEBEDEE (npub1m0n…dqkw) almost since the inception of the company (2019). If I’m not mistaken Nostr first commit is end of 2020.

We enabled and supported him (financially and otherwise) working on the protocol, AND a bunch of other closed/open source projects for ZEBEDEE.

Incredible developers like jb55 (npub1xts…kk5s), benarc (npub1a8j…5pj4), yourself, cameri (npub1qqq…n47m) and MANY others (sorry I didn’t tag everyone) have worked tirelessly on the protocol too and have taken Nostr to the next level!

My talk at Bitcoin Park was about CUBES - building blocks of technologies. And how innovative developers take CUBES built by others and take it further than thought possible before.

That’s what you have done to Nostr.

We have all taken npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6s (npub180c…6w6s) invention and taken it to next level, TOGETHER.

Similarly, if it wasn’t for everyone’s efforts on LNURL, I wouldn’t have built Lightning Addresses. If Lightning Addresses weren’t widespread, there would not have been Zaps the same way they are today (for the record I’m sure jb55 (npub1xts…kk5s) would have built it some other innovative way ⚡️)

This is about the impact of compounding technologies.

ZEBEDEE helped enable it and make it happen.
