#2 š„ Community Highlights
================================
1. The opinion of jack (npub1sg6ā¦f63m) about #Nostr identity system
nostrās identity system is underrated. especially when combined with zaps. itās far easier than anything else out there, gives its owner full agency, and comes with micropayment funding.
ālogin with nostrā buttons on every service out there should be a goal.
2. Isamar (npub1qx0ā¦s4jk) is onboarding on nostr

4. Sebastix (npub1qe3ā¦zefe) explains the need of Nostr based alternative for Strava and Komoot
The timing to build a Nostr powered alternative for Strava AND Komoot is almost getting perfect after the news is out that Komoot is acquired by a Bended Spoons. In '23 and '24 they also have acquired Evernote WeTransfer MeetUP etc for example and we all know what will happen next now with Komoot #enshittification.

5. Gigi (npub1derā¦xzpc) explains the importance of going on the Nostr path
"You wouldn't zap a car crash."
6. melvincarvalho (npub1melā¦5c24) defines Nostr
Nostr is not a social network with payments. It's a payments network with social. At the heart of nostr is bitcoin taproot for every identity. Every npub is a taproot address with a different prefix and checksum. That means that every nostr account is a wallet and vice versa. Whether or not this proves to be a good design decision, time will tell. But it opens many unexpored doors.
7. The dream of paulinthejungle (npub1spdā¦q6j7) for people
Dream is for people to run to Nostr & become healthier, wiser, & wealthier as a result.

9. The reason for trey (npub164qā¦2rl3) hangout with bitcoiners a lot on Nostr
Thereās a reason I hang out with bitcoiners A LOT more on nostr
They have principles and brains, not NGU and high time preference like on other social media platforms š
10. The request of fiatjaf (npub180cā¦h6w6) from the nostr plebs for aware outside community about Nostr
Outside our little group here no one knows and no one has any chance to know all the things being created on Nostr, and I'm sure there are many folks that would be very interested if they knew.
We need more people writing about specific Nostr initiatives, such as the groups subprotocol, the git subprotocol, the community relays, the bunkers, the decentralized app store, the multisig signers, the highlighting, the photo sharing, the very private secure messaging subprotocols, the outbox model, the bluetooth offline inter-device protocol, the decentralized wiki and other stuff.
If you know how to write 3 words without asking an AI to generate text for you please do it.
