I wish I had your optimism. But looking at any trending or top-zapped feed contradicts this view. People open their wallets based on likeability, popularity, their mood, or how much they agree with someone’s take. To be fair, this is not a critique of Nostr.

As a species, we’re not that great at the whole V4V thing. As much as I’d love to be proven wrong, I think that humanity is not there yet.
No, I disagree in that we aren't good at v4v with fiat ruining inventive structures, at this point, almost unknowingly.
And I don't pay attention to the big zappers. They are in a fart-sniffing circlejerk. If you aren't in that club, you aren't in that club.
