I recently sat down with Vitor Pomplona, creator of Nostr client Amethyst, to discuss how Nostr in 2025 is a lot like what Bitcoin was like in 2012 — a bit rough around the edges, but exciting to use.
The article is a summary of interview with Vitor Pomplona who —
believes that it’s still early for Nostr, but that in the future, creators will be able to make a living using clients built on the protocol and more and more people will use Nostr for the freedom it offers.
Nostr in 2025 feels just like Bitcoin back in 2012 rough but full of energy. Vitor Pomplona nails it: it’s early, but soon creators will thrive and people will flock to Nostr for true freedom. This is just the beginning.
