Yeah, I agree with all those options. Yet, how to do that without losing end-users? Maybe it just needs to be tried to see what is most effective. Maybe, Clients can take a cut of each Zap? Or…. Provide a way for advertisers to spread to a wider relay options for a fee? Any of these options will piss of someone for sure….

Fountain podcasts works by taking a cut from your sats when you tip/stream sats and that’s also a good model.
Losing end users isn’t a problem, there will always be new/free clients so everyone will end up using one they like.
Nostr is so early and there are already many good quality clients, so I’d like them to sort their monetization out themselves, and see which business model(s) will win.
