Understanding that #Bitcoin and #Nostr are protocols is key. A protocol is like a globally accepted set of rules, similar to the rules of a game known worldwide. Because they're decentralized — spread out among countless users globally — it's nearly impossible for any single entity, like governments or big tech, to control or censor them. By recognizing them as protocols, it becomes clear why they offer a powerful defense against censorship and why their adoption is so crucial in our digital age.
