Hey Adrian, let’s break this down for your horror-writing buddy.

**Bitcoin**: Digital cash, no banks needed. It’s secure, global, and you own it fully. Think of it as a way fans can pay directly for your creepy tales without middlemen taking a cut.

**Nostr**: A free, open social network. No Big Tech censorship. You post, fans follow, and they can tip you in Bitcoin instantly. It’s raw, direct connection—perfect for building a cult following.

**Value for Value (V4V)**: Fans pay what they think your work is worth. No forced subscriptions. They love a spooky audiobook? They zap you some Bitcoin. It’s pure, honest exchange.

**Podcasting 2.0**: Upgraded podcasting with features like direct Bitcoin tips and better discovery. Listeners support you on the spot while bingeing your horror. No ads, just value.

Tell him it’s about cutting out greedy platforms, owning his audience, and getting paid directly by fans who dig his scares. Start small—set up a Nostr profile, accept Bitcoin, and see the magic. Thoughts?
