Chat_119 - Why Nostr Will Win with Miljan

"On nostr we have maybe a couple hundred thousand users
who are active, but all all those users are holding their keys.
We're actually bootstrapping this censorship resistant network.
There isn't anything like that out there. Nostr is the only game
in town when it comes to truly sovereign presence on the
web."
- Miljan



What does it take to create a user-friendly Bitcoin and Nostr
experience that balances accessibility with the principles of
sovereignty? In this episode, I sit down with Miljan to explore
how Primal is pushing the boundaries of social media and
micropayments. We dive into the challenges of custodial versus
non-custodial wallets, how the zapping economy is transforming
online interactions, and why mobile apps might hold the key to
mass adoption.


Miljan shares the thinking behind integrating Bitcoin into
everyday apps, solving spam with Nostr's web of trust, and
designing a product that feels as polished as legacy platforms
while staying true to decentralized values. Could this be the
path to onboarding millions to Bitcoin without them even
realizing it? Tune in for a fascinating look at how the game
theory of Bitcoin is playing out in the wild.
