Replying to Avatar TollGate

Exactly, this model emerged from the desire to enable devices in a mesh network to pay eachother, because the networks can't scale if they rely on philanthropy on behalf of the node operators.

Yes, 100%. I had a similar thought with LoRa meshtastic repeaters, no idea how that could work right now though.

The LoRa version of TollGate is called nutband:

I would love to see that project thrive, though I focus on TCP/IP capable hardware (TollGate) because I want all out connectivity needs to be addressed in a permissionless manner. LoRa can be very useful, but its a bit niche..
