I dont know sug. Well I guess that's why artists, entrepreneurs, and creators who are successful can change set prices for their items.
A whole system built on pay what you want isn't what I want to be honest with ya.
I wish I could just turn off Zaps under a certain amount. How can I do this?
It's the same reason why if you throw nickles at dancers, you'll be thrown out of the club - I've seen it!
Just want to feel respected and getting 5cents ain't it. Luv u all tho, truly.
Jess. 💗
I would never see any amount Zapped to me as an insult. I'm not getting sats anywhere else for my content. All sats are a blessing.
Value for value earned sats are a blessing.
Understanding the value of Bitcoin is key to understanding why plebs zap 21 sats all day long.
If you want to earn/charge more for your performances/thoughts, then create a portal/solution that allows you to do so. That’s the beauty of the Nostr protocol. Can’t even remotely do that on Twitter/Insta/Reddit/OF/PornHub/TikTok etc.
Even though 10 or 100 Sats May feel small now, it’s still something of true value compared to a digital thumbs up for nothing. Think about the guy who spent 10 BTC for pizzas. At the time that was the value.
It’s akin to a street performer working for tips. They don’t ask for a specific amount. People give what they can financially afford to do so and what they feel is warranted and that’s ok. Want to be Taylor Swift and make millions per show and be exclusive? Go get a record label deal and do a tour and be a slave to someone else. Want to work for yourself and be a creator, work hard and make your work valuable go do it.
nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s gets zapped way more than me and he should because he built nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955 and took the risk and he’s being rewarded for the awesome app he built. That’s why this creator-value economy we’ve built is so important to us.
This ain’t the club. You don’t get to set the parameters.
In meatspace poles and lap dances get you dollars and nickels.
In Nostr you receive sats.
What the fuck are you charging for? I don't get it... Are we supposed to feel grateful to see your ass in a g string. Give me a break.
