Key Insight
The overwhelming majority found Nostr through Bitcoin-Twitter overlap (~36% direct Twitter + ~25% influencer mentions, many of which were on Twitter). Podcasts are the next significant funnel. Very few found it through app stores, Wikipedia, or Fediverse — most discovery was socially driven via Bitcoin-centric personalities and communities.
Note: Some replies mentioned multiple sources, so category totals exceed 100%. nostr:nevent1qqsv34zfj8fr2tkvktyj8w4afxrxef8qd3hns3arrywc4cahm2ewulcj8h00n
