Using hard money to directly support content someone has created that you enjoyed or learned from is actually the opposite of shitcoinery, that is a very bitcoin thing to do. It also provides an incentive for people to produce less noise and more signal, and takes the profit margin away from centralized platforms, and gives it directly to us.

Trying to create fake value with a graphic is not the same.

Not everything needs to be reinvented, we have QR codes and bitcoin for event passes.

Letting a sticker be a sticker is not stifling progress or innovation, from my view. 🙏

In my defense I did say the argument was "obtuse" lol

If you take the perspective that a layer 2 is not actually truly Bitcoin and lightning is a shitcoin, which is a perspective held by some, you can make this case.

I am of the mind I don't really care what happens on Nostr and I am just here for the ride 💜

Lightning can’t be a shitcoin: it’s not a coin. 🫶 I haven’t encountered anyone who thinks that in the wild but I wouldn’t be surprised to hear that’s out there.
