If you're interested in Nostr Paid Services, I've written my thoughts on approaches here - including:

1. On-demand and optionally authenticated

2. Pre-paid with authentication (and top up/extend mechanism)

3. Membership entitled and authenticated (with join mechanism and possible service feature caps or excess usage fees)

https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/issues/340

I'd like to collaborate to battle test these approaches, and see if we can define workflows that work for the paid services people are, and want to build on Nostr.

Feedback welcome and encouraged.

And don’t be discouraged by the GitHub issue being proof of work related.. it’s just a use case where we’re discussing possible payment flows.

Nostr paid services can apply to: translation APIs, paid event broadcast, premium relay membership (additional member features), media uploads, interactive bots, paid Nostr content, paying for store goods, whatever.
