X(Twitter)-тен кететін уақыт қазір

Bitcoin Twitter has been an exciting place over the last year as the Nostr and Ordinals protocols became the new up-and-coming protocols on the scene.

Ordinals exposed a fault line starting to form within the Bitcoin community. The ossifiers class that wants to keep Bitcoin the way it is versus the builders that want to explore and create new use cases for Bitcoin has turned into two distinct camps that will never reconcile their differences.

This has yet to happen with the NOSTR protocol. Capital has been pouring into development from some of the most well-known entities in Bitcoin. Primal, a nostr-focused client, recently secured $1 million in funding from Ten31 and Hivemind. Джек Дорси, the former CEO of Twitter, has pledged $10 million to spur the development of the nostr protocol. Despite these positive developments, there hasn't been a mass exodus of Bitcoiners from X, formerly known as Twitter, to the freedom protocol. Why is that?

I'm shocked that most Bitcoiners have decided to stay behind the barbed wire fence of mass surveillance and have their data continually harvested for the benefit of Elon Musk.

Бостандық есігі алдымызда тұр, бірақ көп адамдар қалуды шешеді, бірақ неге?

For all the talk about incentives matter, the average Bitcoiner has fallen into the same social media trap that every other nocoiner has found themselves in. Here are a few reasons I believe Bitcoiners on X resist leaving the platform.

Желілік әсерлер - бұл есірткі

This is one of the main reasons why the most prominent voices on Twitter have yet to make the jump to being nostr only. X has been around much longer than the nostr protocol and is used by millions of people around the globe. If you are a Bitcoiner who has spent years building a massive Twitter following, it must be tough to migrate to a new platform with a much smaller user base and requires some technical knowledge to set up. It is easy to understand the rationale for staying on Twitter. There is too much to lose from a business perspective to make the jump.

By making this decision, they are missing an opportunity to introduce their audience to nostr and the idea of freedom tech in general. Staying on Twitter doesn't advance the mission of hyperbitcoinization because it perpetuates the usage of centralized communications platforms and undermines the message of freedom. Twitter might have a more extensive user base than Nostr, but when you look deeper at the numbers, it doesn't mean anything.

Pew Research мәліметтері бойынша, американдықтардың 23 пайызы X қолданады, бұл оны американдықтар қолданатын басқа әлеуметтік медиа платформаларының ортасына қояды. Facebook пен YouTube-ті американдықтар Twitter-ге қарағанда көбірек ұнатады.

In the same survey, 25 percent of users said they would not be on the platform a year from now. That's a lot of people who will not learn about Bitcoin X бастап.

Usage of the app continues to decline year over year with no end in sight. Worldwide visits to Twitter.com dropped 7.3 percent year over year. Monthly active users on Android and iOS are down 15 percent for Android and 14 percent for iOS. X is on a slow-motion decline, so the argument that Bitcoiners should stay on X because it's more effective for orange pilling nocoiners doesn't hold water. Nocoiners are fleeing X in droves.

Біз сондай-ақ әлеуметтік медиа компаниялары бүкіл әлем бойынша қоғамды бақылау және ықпал ету үшін пайдаланылатынын білеміз. Twitter аккаунттарымызды қалдыра алмасақ, ақша мен мемлекетті бөлуді қалай жақтай аламыз? Міне, мемлекеттің орталықтандырылған әлеуметтік медиа платформаларын өз пайдасына пайдалануының бірнеше мысалдары:

X certainly doesn't free humanity from the clutches of the surveillance state in any way; it traps us in a digital panopticon with no escape. If the goal is hyperbitcoinization, we should do everything possible to erode the state's power. Staying on X empowers the government by giving them unlimited access to our data. You might lose followers and money in the short term, but it's worth it. Short-term pain for long-term gain should be the priority. We are doing this for the kids, right?

Dopamine Hits Feelz Good

Who doesn't like posting a tweet and watching it go viral on Bitcoin Twitter? It gives you the massive dopamine rush that social media was designed for. This is why most of us keep coming back to Twitter in the first place. We want that dopamine mang! Think of Twitter as the drug dealer on the corner giving you all the dopamine you want. It's available on your phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

It has been clinically proven that when you receive a notification or retweet, your brain experiences an increased level of dopamine, further positively reinforcing the need to use social media. Did you know nearly 40 percent of those aged 18-22 reported feeling addicted to social media?

X компаниясының инженерлері бұл мәселені анық түсінеді және адамдарды сол жерде мүмкіндігінше ұзақ тұруға ынталандыру үшін платформаларын жасады. Олар ақымақ емес. Осылайша олар ақша табады. Мен X-те жылжып кеткеніме кінәлімін, бірақ бәріміз олардың не істегісі келетінін білуіміз керек.

Not saying nostr is the panacea to this problem, but the protocol doesn't have the mind-altering algos that are trying to keep you addicted to the protocol. Is it fair to say that nostr is better for your mental health? Just throwing that out there.

Біз өз құндылықтарымызбен өмір сүруіміз керек

This picture is the one that hit me the most and inspired me to write this article. As Bitcoiners, how can we rail against big tech and the surveillance state if we continue to use the tools the state uses to suppress free speech? How will we rally people to the cause of Bitcoin if we don't live by the very ideas we espouse to the world?

Using Twitter is, but one compromise, but one leads to another and another. We all live in a world of trade-offs. We should all strive for a world where freedom tech is the norm and not an exception. In general, Bitcoin and freedom tech have allowed us to remake the world and orient it towards peace and cooperation and away from the war, death, and destruction that the psychopaths in political office want to inflict on the common man.

Remember that the rich and powerful are not on our side. I urge all Bitcoiners to use nostr and slowly transition away from big tech because you never know when you will lose access to your data and all your hard work.

Міне, егер сіз еркіндік технологиясын пайдаланып сөйлескіңіз келсе, менің пабкиім! Мен сізді сол жерде көруді асыға күтемін! Бостандыққа қашу.
