Can’t state it enuff that if the "influencers" can’t make a living off of "the nostr" that they won’t stay & their followers won’t either.

Doesn’t matter though, Nostr is complete free-speech. That itself has value with or without influencers.
I agree but it seems the majority of people don’t agree with that yet
Relays and apps require resources to be run and maintained. Where does the money come from to sustain them?
True fans. Supporters who want to see this thing take off.
We need a big influencer media company to point all their content to a zap.steam pay to access only type thing for it to really catch on & only post content on though nostr
I agree. I think the limitations of the size of the bitcoin user base adds an additional challenge. Any new project (app, artist, creator, etc) seeking to monetize is going to run into struggles at first and need to rely on their biggest supporters to get them off the ground. When the pool of potential supporters is limited to only people who know how to use bitcoin, that shrinks the available funds for new projects. The catch 22 is that bitcoin is perfectly suited for a decentralized network like this. More people have fiat to spend, but that also introduces kyc and other potential regulations.
