Over the past few days, I've suddenly seen a surge of people from all over the world discovering and following me.
Since many of you probably don't know who I am yet, let me introduce myself.
I'm Japanese, 36 years old, and I'll turn 37 on October 24.
I've been in love with programming for as long as I can remember. Throughout my career, I've moved between Japanese startups, mostly through headhunting and being recruited away for new challenges. I've also led development as a producer at one of Japan's largest crowdfunding platforms.
But here's something more personal.
I was born hard of hearing.
Yet programming has made my life richer than I could ever have imagined. I love building things. I love the process of turning ideas into reality. And nothing makes me happier than seeing something I've built reach people's hands and become part of their lives.
That's why I love building nostrfy, a Nostr relay engine.
And now, I want to take things to another level.
My greatest strength is my ability to go all in, even when there's a real risk of failure.
I have creativity. I have an almost irrational drive to build. And I'm going to bring all of it to the table to challenge Big Tech.
Why Nostr?
Because I believe we can win here.
Do I have all the evidence? A perfect strategy? A detailed roadmap that guarantees success?
No.
And honestly, I don't think we need to have everything figured out before we begin.
When Bitcoin first emerged, it wasn't just technology. It was a movement. An explosion of energy, belief, experimentation, and people who dared to imagine a different future.
I want to recreate that kind of energy on Nostr. With creativity. With relentless obsession. With unapologetic madness.
I'm not here just to watch the future unfold.
I'm here to help build it.
So, to everyone discovering me from around the world: welcome😎
Let's build things that shouldn't be possible. Let's challenge assumptions. Let's make something people genuinely love. And let's show the world what a small group of passionate, slightly crazy builders can do when they have the freedom to create.
Let's go on an adventure with Nostr🔥
The age of Nostr is dawning.
And I'm just getting started🫡
This is the post that started it all:
