The Nostr Lounge will be inside the conference located in the Open Source area and it is sponsored by HRF which is huge. We're also having an event and after party. Asked me any questions and of course who is joining VEGAS?

Welcome. How did you get into promoting Nostr at conferences? Did you have an event marketing background?
I am an event manager and have been doing all sort of events in Germany. Derek Ross mainly purple pilled me who is also part of the team at the conference and made the main contact.
Awesome. Derek is great.
Nice to have you on SN. Maybe we can yellow pill you and you can do some SN promoting too.
Always down for a new rabbit hole. ;)
Maybe fat zaps can entice you!!
Blok knows how to make new friends. Haha
Awesome. I hope you enjoy your time on SN.
What places in Germany do you think would be best for a digital nomad wanting to spend some time there?
Also where do you think would be best for Europe as a whole?
I'm considering going to the Prague conference and would love to spend some time in Europe if I do...
Well, I am actually looking for a new country right now as I'm not such a fan of how things are going in the EU. Switzerland is very nice. But if you want to visit Europe in general I would highly recommend hiring a car and driving through the alps, and down Italy.
Pizza or tacos?
Tacos
What's your favorite nostr client?
As a write I love Highlighter and Yakihonne for long term content.
What's a dream Nostr client you'd like to see, that nobody's thought of/built yet?
As a sport enthusiast something like STRAVA would be great, but I believe people are working on that already? Also I would love to see an on demand book shop I can sell my books.
~Stacker_Sports should be your main SN hangout!
If you had to choose between bitcoin and nostr, you can only have/use one or the other, which would you choose?
Nostr. Got purple pilled before orange pilled..
Which nostrich are looking forward to seeing in person for the first time?
Actually Valerie and Ben
<----- meeeeee!
Lovely to have you here!
Why is Nostr not bigger than it is?
Put differently: given censoring, algos, and ideological silos, why isn't everyone flocking to Nostr?
WHOOOOP!!!
Why it is not bigger? I don't know... Even at the conference there is no talk or panel .... and #NosVEGAS at we all scream is the ONLY side event ...
is the Nostr dream dead/dying, then?
People just dont care that much.
Nostr is growing more in different metrics than number of ppl go up (which is fine)
What's your read on Nostr adoption in Germany?
I imagine you'd love to see your home country make some moves here!
Considering you can literally get sent straight to jail for questioning certain things there...I can't think of a country more primed for a censorship-proof free speech platform 👀
Yes, that is exactly why I'm so bullish on Nostr as I have finally a voice and don't get censored just because I questions the system or asked specific questions the "P(L)ANDEMIC" was a great example! They just delete you and try to silence you.
If nostr were an alcoholic beverage, which beverage would it be?
I asked Chat Gpt. hahaha:
Gin & Tonic (British background)
"Why? Gin was a popular drink in England during the Enlightenment - at the same time a symbol of freedom, but also of social criticism. Particularly suitable when looking at freedom of expression from a European perspective."
Who aren't we following on nostr that we should be?
That really depends on you. I like to follow all kind of people especially artist and creators.
