Interesting chat. The guy interviewed understands the issues we all have, but appears to be in a team building a #Nostr protocol competitor, to tackle the same issues we all face with centralised services and #privacy
Not so good imho:
1) Nostr already exists as a protocol, it's a shame resources potentially capable of helping build it out further are recreating the wheel (much of the #tech mentioned is already utilised here)
2) It appears to be PoS 💩coin powered from near the end of the interview.
3) Competition is good, but typically at a technology level rather than a first mover protocol level. (An analogy being Token Ring is in the dustbin of history now)
