Are you on the Botev relay, gentleplebs?

💜 Last year, Botev (npub19jf…8rx0) became the first sports club on Nostr.

🫡 Today, we become the first sports club running a Nostr relay: https://relay.botev.sv/

This relay would not be happening without:

- The inspiration that we got from derGigi ⚡🧡 (npub1der…xzpc)'s writings in 2023
- The contagious enthusiasm of miljan (npub16c0…6nvr), Derek Ross (npub18am…p424), ODELL (npub1qny…95gx), Kieran (npub1v0l…qj49)
- The time invested by greshev (npub1mnw…eujc) to actually set up https://relay.botev.sv/

This is a small but important step in our recommittment to freedom.

👇 WHY?

1. Our club is named afer the poet and freedom fighter Hristo Botev, who died fighting for our country's freedm. Botev famously wrote "Only one who is free can be called human in the full sends of the word".

2. Botev FC suffered heavily to centralization and censorship during the Bulgarian communist era, when the team was forced to change its name to "Trakia" and was repeately mistreated in favor of communist-friendly clubs.

Embracing Bitcoin and Nostr is, therefore, the most natural step for our club's identity and historical roots.

If Hristo Botev was alive, he would have been a Bitcoiner running a full node and a Norst relay.

In the past year, we have mostly been cross-posting from Twitter to Nostr. But for us this is just the beginning. We already have plans for Nostr-exclusive content and keep looking for:
- the right Nostr clients that enable us to reinvent fan engagement;
- the best way to utilize our relat for our community;
- new purple paradigms and projects.

It was thrilling to join thenostrworld (npub1nst…rg5l)'s Nostriga. The energy I felt in people reminded of the energy described in Ben Merzlich's "Bitcoin Billionaires" book about the Winklevos brothers. It is an honor to part of this community.

LET'S BUILD!

Following our club's slogan BEAUTY. FAITH. FIGHT.

🌟 We see the BEAUTY of Nostr and Bitcoin.
🙏 We have FAITH Nostr and Bitcoin can make the world freer
⚔️ We contribute to this worthwhile FIGHT.

🚀 The ₿est is Yet to Come!
⚽ One Goal At a Time!
