Hi, I am among the unfortunate victims of the FTX scam, a situation that has resulted in the loss of my entire savings, totaling around $20,000.

The distressing aspect of this ordeal is not just the financial loss but the subsequent actions taken by SBF and Sullivan & Cromwell, the involved debtors. Following the success of their global heist, it appears that, rather than working towards justice for the affected customers, they are prioritizing their own interests, demonstrating a complete disregard for the well-being of those who have suffered.

To witness such blatant exploitation of innocent people for personal gain is not only disheartening but also raises concerns about the moral and ethical compass of those involved. Their actions can only be described as mentally and spiritually sick, going beyond mere financial misconduct.

The significance of this situation cannot be overstated for me, as the funds lost were an integral part of my financial stability. I am reaching out to you with the hope that you might consider extending a helping hand during this challenging time. Any assistance however small that you could provide to navigate through the complexities of this situation would be immensely appreciated.

I believe in the power of collective compassion and the willingness of individuals to make a difference in the lives of those facing adversity. I understand that you may have your own commitments and limitations, but even the smallest gesture can have a meaningful impact.

Thank you for taking the time to read my plea, and I sincerely hope that you may find it in your heart to offer assistance during this trying period. Your kindness will not be forgotten, and I am immensely grateful for any support you can provide.

Please save me.

I find creatr to be too hard to use. I’m sure it’s easy if you’re the kind of person who uses bitcoin and lightening outside of Nostr, but for normies this is hard. If i could pay for it FROM a nostr app, with a zap, then it’d be easier. But as it is, it’s like go use x software, then y software, then copy this code (relay address) and put it in the right spot. As a proof of concept, i like it, and i’m excited about being able to pay for subscription content on nostr, but this needs some user testing.

nostr:npub18kzz4lkdtc5n729kvfunxuz287uvu9f64ywhjz43ra482t2y5sks0mx5sz check out this user review!

Is it possible that people could get a DM and zap it and things would work?

We could certainly DM an invoice - that’s easy to do. How should a user signal they want an invoice from within their nostr client?

We could make it a chat bot with commands like nostr:npub1fyvwkve2gxm3h2d8fvwuvsnkell4jtj4zpae8w4w8zhn2g89t96s0tsfuk but that seemed a bit archaic to me.

Maybe there could be some kind of ā€œsubscribe nowā€ button on the paywall splash? Or maybe the link that takes them to the website currently instead just says subscribe now and if you click it a dm is sent? Or even better would be that link just auto generates an invoice for that npub and sends them to a wallet for payment?

I agree that it’s not ready for prime time. That’s why I primarily use it in a way where there are public images followed by subscription imagery. This way people can still see some of my work and zap me the normal nostr way.

Also, instead of posting less public stuff, I’m trying to simply post MORE content, keeping my typical 2-3 image posts public but adding an additional 2-3 images to the post as well.

I think I might stop ā€œpromotingā€ the creatr aspect all together, as I think it lowers the signal of the art by having ā€œadvertisingā€ type language in the post, but I also want to help Mazin spread the word… so that’s a tough one.

Thanks Rabble, appreciate you taking the time.

I agree, of course, that there’s too much friction and switching for now. Unfortunately, I think without building our own client (which we strictly want to avoid) there are going to be UX tradeoffs.

My perception is zaps aren’t useful for subscriptions. What do they zap? How do they know how much to zap? What happens if a user underpays for a subscription by 1 sat? How about overpays (perhaps even exceeding the max subscription duration limit)? What about if they zap the wrong note or person? Who will track and address these customer support issues?

Invoices just work and make sense and NWC makes this process smooth. After your first payment we show a ā€œConnect Walletā€ button to send future invoices. If we could get the users wallet connected up front, all they would need to do is signal they wanted to subscribe to a certain user and we would automatically send them a pay req via NWC. Maybe that’s the best route?
