Influencers by definition shepherd gullible people to products and ideas. This is the opposite of what #bitcoin and #nostr needs, which is nothing.
Both work fine as they are. What you are describing in terms of growing #nostr would be to inject a bunch of servile Fiat minded users into this space.
While obviously all are welcome here, and there are already a fair number of sheep among us, organic growth of people who think for themselves is what is already happening with these freedom technologies. This won’t and shouldn’t happen quickly. The fact that the technologies exist is all that is required.
People will discover both #bitcoin and #nostr at their own pace, and most never will. This is the hard pill for many here to swallow but it is nevertheless the most likely outcome.
The vast majority of humans are dumb and so distracted by the prison they live in that the questions of “what is money” and “what is free speech” will never rise to any level of consciousness.
Just be happy that you found a way out. Let others do so at their pace. If you are able to convince them to do something, they will be just as likely persuaded by someone else preaching a shitcoin.
