Ah damn! That sucks they had a clever idea. I wonder if it’s regulatory, issue of credit card fraud, or something misaligned with the product/market fit? 🤔
That sucks though, talked with those guys a few times and I was rooting for them.
Mash.com is shutting down.
Mash provided an easy way to engage in #Value4Value content on the web through its custodial lightning wallet and integrations with many major web publishing platforms like Ghost.
I used Mash on bitcoinbrief.io (BEFORE TFTC and nostr:npub1guh5grefa7vkay4ps6udxg8lrqxg2kgr3qh9n4gduxut64nfxq0q9y6hjy, I might add!).
Another casualty of the current regulatory overreach?
Discussion
Same, they were super open to feedback from users. And they had recently brought in a digital media veteran from barstool, I believe, to take it to the next level.
Hopefully they are retrenching and going self-custodial (nostr wallet connect, Bitcoin connect) or some ecash route (like mutiny's fedimint integration).
Although, maybe nostr just eats that use case? Pretty easy to monetize content here. 💜
