Podcasts: TLS97: David King on Google & Nostr’s Early Days, The Role of Lightning on Nostr, and Angel Investing 🔗 1 year ago

The Kevin Rooke Show

David King has been an early Google product manager, an angel investor for more than a decade, and is a creator exploring the convergence of Nostr, Bitcoin, and startups.

In our conversation, we explored how Google’s early days compare to the early days of Nostr, the role Lightning could play on Nostr, and how the open internet may change the early stage investing landscape.
