Incredible to see new funding models emerge for decentralized and/or open source development! #nostr #bitcoin

Eg, every time there's an update for Damus or Amethyst or paid relays, the community zaps developers as a thank you

While it may not be sufficient for full time Equivalent employment, it's amazing to see an additional revenue stream for devs

It's easy to send bitcoin + it's directly tied to performance or milestones (eg fixed X bug), a powerful combo

Bitcoin is definitely more challenging because it's a very long process for BIPs to get implemented, but I love seeing a new path we can progress as an ecosystem 💜
