We'll see an entirely new experience like never before. Well, maybe stacker.news, but stacker.news is a very niche and doesn't appeal to the masses. Nostr and Zaps have a chance to allow content creators to get paid for their content without a middle man with a click or tap of a button. It will be game changing once people experience it.

I believe we'll start to see a higher quality of notes too.
