so there's no way to use a simplex like client using relays on nostr?
Discussion
Maybe with its own event kind but that might not get wide support from regular relays
They came up with a solution for that. You can pay a relay a few sats to deliver your message. They equate it to buying a postage stamp. It's a nice way to incentives relays to adopt and support the service. I like the idea of paying a decentralized relay network a few sats per message rather than relying on a server farm being funded by donations or venture capital.
