I would love to participate on such project. I was thinking very similar idea.

I think subscription model over open interoperable network like Nostr and LN allows to do things that traditional closed paywall can't.

Hey Jan! Considering singing up for the Nostr Hackathon we’re hosting this month. We’re giving away .25 Bitcoin to various winners.

Along these lines, I'd love something similar to the "crowdwall" concept John Carvalho uses for his podcast. (https://thebiz.pro/about#crowdwall)

Basically nostr notes with hidden content until some cumulative number of sats have been zapped, and then the content is revealed to everyone going forward. Because the zaps are nostr messages themselves, even if the content itself were hosted on a separate blog or something, it could pull the list of zaps and show a section for all the people that donated to make the content available, like a sponsorship leaderboard.

How does that solve bot issues?

Not really a bot solution - just a crowdsourced paywall instead of per-person paywall.

Ah thought I was missing something,

This makes sense for some ultra premium content for sure,

I would still want 1sat for a reply to force bots to spend.
