Nostr In 2025 Is A Lot Like Bitcoin In 2012
Briefly

Vitor Pomplona, the creator of the Nostr client Amethyst, draws parallels between Nostr's current stage and Bitcoin's early years, emphasizing the exciting potential for monetization in decentralized social media. Nostr is still relatively new but is evolving as developers strive to enhance user experience through various applications. Users can express appreciation for content by sending small bitcoin amounts, creating a thriving economy. Pomplona envisions a future where creators can financially support themselves through Nostr, marking a significant shift away from traditional social media models.
Vitor Pomplona believes that as Nostr grows, it will become a powerful platform allowing users to monetize their creations similarly to Bitcoin in its early days.
Nostr's decentralized protocol combines the excitement of social media with the potential for users to earn a living through monetization opportunities.
Pamplona states, '[Some social media] users want to earn a living. They have hope that they can achieve more with social media than they can alone...'
In the interview, Pomplona highlights: 'We are starting to see communities being formed and more money being transferred' within the Nostr ecosystem.
