About this listen

Episode 142 is a Nostr year-in-review roundtable with Avi, QW, Vitor Pamplona, and Corndalorian. They reflect on the mid-year “Nostr bear market” in engagement and argue it wasn’t a death spiral, it was infrastructure season: fewer tourists, more plumbers, deeper roots.

Vitor breaks down why user drop-off is normal at this stage, and why 2025 felt like “working on the pipes,” with Nostr expanding beyond Twitter-style clients into a richer set of social shapes (chat, Instagram/TikTok-like experiences, etc.).

The group riffs on Nostr’s culture of resisting ad-driven incentives, celebrates experimentation (like Jumble forks), and spotlights how music has become a real-world “ground game” for Nostr gatherings.

Looking ahead, they’re bullish on 2026 being a Web-of-Trust year (more data, better personalization feeds), plus more creator tooling like zap splits, subscriptions, and AI-accelerated development.
