I would pay 1,000,000 sats to read a great article. But only if I knew it was great, which I can’t know if it’s paywalled. #value4value

Paywalls are a result of our lack of faith in ourselves and our fellow man. We lack conviction in our own ideas, and we believe everyone will cheat and read our content without giving value back.

Good observation. A lack of confidence and trust, combined with the reality that we had no simple, decentralized and global payment system for microtransactions before Bitcoin Lightning.

Mentioning this I am reminded that Twitter is again repeating that failed old model; the Twitter coins and diamonds are not a simple, global or decentralized payment system. And you have to subscribe $8 per month to get perhaps $4 back if you are lucky. And those diamond tokenoids have no usecase anywhere else. Reinvention of the walled garden. But without the organic garden; instead there is algorithms and plastic tokenoidery.😄

💯!
