Could Saylor have done this with Nostr keys? Why inscribe these on-chain? Just so that plebs couldn't afford to use the chain? To kill the medium-of-exchange use case and make plebs "own" IBIT and use custodians?

He's trying to kill two birds with one stone:
  1. Patrol you and control your identity online.
  2. Saturate the bitcoin blockchain so the pleb cannot accumulate onchain anymore.
Nostr is just a more advanced version of PGP with relays, to put it simply.
