Okay guys how are we getting all our favorite bands on nostr:npub1yfg0d955c2jrj2080ew7pa4xrtj7x7s7umt28wh0zurwmxgpyj9shwv6vg?

I’m just going to start DM’ing them all unless anyone has any better, more coordinated ideas.

Obvious hurdles and threshold issues are they have to be amenable to receiving BTC, which means not thinking it’s just some scam internet money. Might require some education.

Then have to get a wallet set up. Which, if step one is in the bag, shouldn’t be too heavy of a lift.

I personally think of bands I’ve spent hundreds of hours listening to, that I quote all the time, philosophize about, etc. Bands who’ve given me way more value and joy than can be compensated merely by buying a record or going to a show.

The Hold Steady are probably the one that comes to mind first for me. But there are many.

Would love to be able to send them bitcoin directly.

It’s fairly easy for bands today. They have a built-in wallet when uploading to Wavlake. So the next hurdle is getting their fans to follow and onboarding them to a wallet from within the app. We’re thinking on some ideas there now. Want to make this as seamless as possible for all parties.

Oh nice, so actually very little friction at all!

Tell the bands how much you have listened to them and that you'd love to be able to send them bitcoin as a thank you.

I think starting there will yield good results!

Awesome, gonna start sending to all my fav bands

Id probably be most receptive to a fellow artist i know saying its legit, so those already on wavlake that are finding success need to tell their peeps ! 🤙
