My "apolitical" shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my shirt. What an odd word to use in the first sentence of your product description, which also includes the word "open", an inherently political concept in this context.

Did/does Nostr have some cryptocurrency connection or am I thinking of something else?

They explicitly don't have a "nostr coin" or do anything "on chain" which I applaud them for especially since the Venn Diagram of Nostr and the crypto community is basically a circle.

I concur and "apolitical" is probably not the best word. I think it is an attempt to convey that the platform can't ban people. It is resistant from infrastructure censorship. Here is an example specific use case:

I find that example pretty humorous... Damn, what kind of controversy is Pamela spreading?

I like it but feel nervous that there is synergy with the bitcoin space. Hype and validation is thick in that space

yeah, lots of bitcoiners

Right wingers have a long history of calling themselves apolitical.
